BreakMe - Breakout style game with online high scores

Hey guys, I'm back with another game I'm working on.
This time with a breakout style game, called BreakMe.

The game has online high scores support with php/mysql working on a server.
The game is still in early development phase and only 1 stage is available now.

PLAY IN YOUR BROWSER: http://breakme.comyr.com/Web.html

After the stage is completed, you can edit the default name by touching / clicking on it,
then pressing "Back to Menu" will save your score in the online database if you're connected to the internet.

Some rules:
- if you win the game while you have a multiball up, you will get a higher score and rating
- if you win the game with less lives, you will have a lower score and rating
- if you lose your main ball while you have a multiball up, your multiball will explode also
- complete the stage faster for a higher score
- for the best score, aim for the following: complete the stage as fast as possible, don't lose any balls, and win while you have your multiball up.

 

UPDATE: Now includes 2 stages for prototyping.
Each stage has separate MySQL tables in the same database, and now it's possible to save your score for each stage separately.
Everything is made dynamic, to keep the MySQL requests low.

 

UPDATE #2:
Now it is possible to unlock new stages as you win the previous ones.
Came up with a different system to use only 1 php script to save highscores from all stages.
5 stages available now (only for prototyping)
Buttons Next Stage and Back to Menu have been added.
TextBox background added to enter player name
Text now has outline for better visibility.
Custom FullScreen Anti-Aliasing implemented (works very nicely on mobile)

 

Nice.

 

Hi. I am also making a game with a high score. But I don't know how to do it online. Could u give me some suggestions on how to do it?

 

this is an old thread, and really you should probably do a little searching around for this answer. But nonetheless if you want to do online high scores you can use a PHP script on a MySQL database to add and check high scores, and then from the game when a player gets to the end of the level/game or whatever, you have them send out a request to that database to add an entry somewhere, and then the PHP scripting on your database handles how to add in that data. You can find a great example on the unify wiki:

Is there any tutorial for using SQL database and php? I don't know how to use that well. And thanks for the reply though

 

You may find many helpful tutorials related to MySQL databases from tons of places, Google around, you will certainly find useful stuff about how to setup a database either locally, or on your web host.
