iGetScores
General information
An online high scores system for games (iPhone and other platforms).
Visit project's website: http://www.igetscores.com/
Upd: 26 June 2009 - we have uploaded the source codes for both server and client, please check in Source -> Browse -> trunk.
Also, a great iPhone implementation sample is coming - will be uploaded soon - including the OpenGL implementation featuring country flags, nice scroller and time in "2 weeks ago" etc format.
The project is now in beta testing stage and there is no web interface yet for you to add your games - but please write us contact@igetscores.com with your suggested consumer key (kind of login) and consumer password - and we will create an account for you. You will be able to export your results via XML at any time and also set up your own high scores server when you decide so - the server sources are also provided.
All developers are invited to use, test and participate in further development of the system. You're welcome to join the club!
Best regards, iGetScores authors
