any way for "Global data store" without sql and php ?
i published my game via google drive. now I want to store only the Highscore ever made. i feel inclusion of php/sql unnecessary additions for this. is there way, to accomplish what playerpref does for local ?
You know, you could use one of the new services like "Parse"
https://parse.com/products/data
Exactly as it says - "store your app's data in the cloud. no servers necessary"
In fact, that's precisely what you want. They do have a Unity port.
@Fattie: Thank you :) its awesome you understood my need.. :) I tested with Parse. Its Nice.
There's 2 components to achieving this:
Communicating with the data source
Storing the data
The first is an obvious choice, the WWW class. You can use this as a way of sending data of the net to talk with an outside source. Something to consider though, is that not all might be connected to the internet while playing your game.
The second is wide open. Sql is just one of the choices. I would say that a database is probably the easiest/best way, but really you could store it anywhere but because you mentioned google drive, you could make an excel file via their API.
All that said, and I know you don't want to do it...but some server side scripting (php, node, rails...etc) + a database (mysql, mssql, postgres...etc) is definitely the way to go in my opinion. Good luck
First of all, Thank you for Exploring all options.. I am a learner,so gonna try all these options. at least once, to get familiarized. but I have an liking to the sql with Excel file idea, gonna try this First..
Thank you, if you got any example related to SQL-EXCEL option, please tell me.
