Hi,
Is there anyway to have highscore of all players in my game? Not just facebook friends of player, I want to have like who made the highest score in the whole world, among all players that played this game.
Does Corona have something to support such thing?
That is what things like Apple’s GameCenter and our Corona Cloud is for. You create a leaderboard and post your scores to it and it tracks new high scores for you.
You could also easily setup your own if you are comfortable with PHP and MySQL on your own web server.
in order to do that you need a server, for a simple data storage like that you don’t need big servers

I would love a solution with example code on how to setup the sever and how to integrate into a game facbook friends profile pics along with a score for the current level.
I am very new to corona sdk and love it, Game Centre and open feint are cool but Facebook would prob attract a wider audience
*bump*
If you want to see how to make Corona SDK talk to PHP/MySQL in the build your own situation, see:

You can use the Google Play Game Services (GPGS) now to do that. There should be a tutorial coming soon on it. While this currently only supports Android, the iOS support is coming soon.
There should be some tutorials already on setting up leaderboards with Apple Game Center. Here is one. It’s a bit dated, and you can skip the Open Feint stuff, but it should be enough to get you started with Apple:

Open Feint is no more, and as announced earlier, we are winding down Corona Cloud. There is a service called Scoreid (I think) that several members have used to implement global leaderboards. There may be some community code for this. Others have used Parse’s REST database service for similar and there should be community code for that as well.
