Blitzmax, am I right?
I think he uses C# or C++ so no you are not right
Watch and learn about Infinitus...
Yes he does use those languages but he prefers to write games in Blitzmax. Like his previous game Defence, written in blitzmax.
God no. I never use BlitzMax for anything nowadays except for the occassional projects when I'm bored (like this one) and want really fast results, anything major I usually write in C++ or C#.
WAH!! BlitzMax wtf?! Well he always disses low level languages like so
I think you mean High Level, not low level. If your going to insult things, get your terminology right. And BlitzMax isn't high level, although relatively new and unrespected it is actually only a small amount higher-level than C, it contains all the features you would commonly use in more resepected languages. It just has a more mnemonic orientated syntax.
Anyway highscore tables are easy. You write a php script that you can call to add/remove/list all highscores in a database, you then simply call these script from your program (essentially the same as downloading a file), and read the output (the downloaded content). How you choose to store the data in the database, and how you format the output is your choice.
