First of all, i want to congratulations all the Corona SDK team. The work behind this project is awesome and they bring to us a very easy solution to deploy effective apps easily that i love.
This post is because we know the corona sdk team is working hard to bring us a native GameCenter solution for our games.
But before release this feature, i want to ask if they will extend the native gamecenter to add more features than actual gamenetwork solution for openfeint
For example. I imagine we will start gamecenter with something like:
gameNetwork.init( “gamecenter” , xxx)
So i will expose my question with some examples
Push Panic
You can see your live rank in the leaderboards meanwhile youre playing the arcade game. (For example, youre now the #1444 on the world)
So maybe a:
gamenetwork.request("ShowRankFromScore", score, LeaderBoardID, .. )
Also doodle jump had something like this, but with names
So maybe something like
local name = gamenetwork.request("ShowNameFromScore", score, LeaderBoardID, .. )
Jetpack Joyride
You can see your friends score at the beginning of the game
So maybe something like
local friendstable={}
friendstable = gamenetwork.request("ShowFriendsScore", LeaderboardID)
World of Goo
This game had a interesting feature in Goo corporation. You can see your friends distance and also the friend country flag. I dont know it’s some kind of blob, but is cool
Other
Also native URLlink to the app (for the typical free game “Buy full version”) and native link to gamecenter to show leaderboards like now in openfeint.
So my question is this: Corona SDK team is looking at this features for the future release of the GameCenter API?.
Thanks if some Corona Staff helps me in this question. Sorry if my english is no good to explain it.
