The GRID

Leaderboard API with Social Platform for HTML5 Games - May 2015 BSc (Hons) Computing Science Staffordshire University by Matthew J. Kemp

“The Grid. A digital frontier. I tried to picture clusters of players as they moved up the leaderboards. What did they look like? Were the leaderboards like freeways?
I kept dreaming of a world I thought I'd never see…” - Tron Legacy*

About

Are you frustrated gamer, tired of trying to prove to your friends that you ‘pwned’ their high scores? Or maybe a Developer who does not have the experience or the time to create a server side application and database just to add a leaderboard to your game?
I would like to introduce ‘The GRID’. A social platform for players to share and compete with each other’s high scores across HTML5 games. Developers will be able to utilize this platform as an easy and efficient solution to include a leaderboard mechanic in their games without the necessity of setting up their own service, providing them with greater social interactions for their players.
