This library helps to read Unity PlayerPrefs file as a Lua table.

• If you want to update your Unity game with Defold version of the game and the user's progress is stored in PlayerPrefs.

• iOS
• macOS
• Android

You can use the PPReader extension in your own project by adding this project as a Defold library dependency. Open your game.project file and in the dependencies field under project add:

https://github.com/AGulev/ppreader/archive/master.zip

Or point to the ZIP file of a specific release.

Your Package name must be the same as your package name in Unity version of the game. Game apk must be signed with the same Certificate and Private key as Unity version of the apk. Forum post how to convert your Unity Certificate and Private key for using with Defold.

Your Bundle Identifier must be the same as your bundle identifier in Unity version of the game. For the signing process, you must use the same Code Signing Identity and Provisioning profile as for Unity version of the game.

-- field = "string",
-- unity.player_sessionid = "your_session_id",
-- scores = 100,
