[crops_1010]

Hi everyone,
I'm a newbie, I have just pulished 1 game on store. I want to add leaderboard in next update, but I don't know how to start.
Can you give me a tips or demo.

Thanks for reading!

What are you using to develop your games? If you are using Unity, there a many plug-ins in the asset store that work.
If you are using a different program, you may want to google "leaderboard integration on (whatever you use to develop)". And I think a mod is going to move your post.

I used cocos2dx_v223 for my game. I spent 6 months for the first game (minesweeper ), and 2.5 months for the current game. With current game, I want to add leaderboard for next update, but dont know where to start.
I have heard leaderboard powered by google_play_services. Can I use it ? How to?

Thanks!

This was confirmed as working:
Google Play Game Services - Cocos2d-x Forum

I don't use that program, so unfortunately I can be of no more service. I think you will find your answer in there, though. Good Luck! and keep up the work, man.

Google Play Game Services - Cocos2d-x Forum

Thanks zynigma! It's very useful for me. I'll try it for my game.

Also, if you enable the Game Services you need to add at least 5 achievements (this is a requirement).

add at least 5 achievements

Is it belong to leaderboard or new feature ?
I only want to add leaderboard, no more.

You can have as many leaderboards as you want, don't need 5 like achievements

Google Play services is your best bet although there is a lot of cheating on their leaderboards. You can only add a leaderboard don't need achievements but you have the possibility to add them too but than you need at least 5 as mentioned before.
