leaderboard/high score list

[erosson]

I'm starting with a local leaderboard. It's saved across multiple playthroughs, but for the current user/device only, not Internet-visible. Should work on any platform. Scores are only saved when "force game over" is used right now; they'll be reported for real when #12 is done.

• Unity's achievement/leaderboard api: http://docs.unity3d.com/Documentation/Components/net-SocialAPI.html
• Free cross-platform locally-saved leaderboards/achievements package: https://www.assetstore.unity3d.com/#/content/3760
  • There's a built-in SocialPlatforms.Local that's used by default, but it's in-memory only, scores reset after the game is closed
• GameCenter is builtin to unity, so making GameCenter work on iOS should be fairly trivial for an iOS person
  • configure a leaderboard named "HighScores" in Gamecenter
  • comment out "Social.Active = PPrefsSocialPlatform.Instance;" in Leaderboard.cs
• Android-specific leaderboards/cheevos: nothing built in to unity, we'll need to implement/find an ISocialEngine for it. https://developers.google.com/games/services/android/leaderboards

It's not the prettiest thing ever, but it'll do as a starting point. The mainmenu "high score list" button will change in #56.

It shows a (configurable) max of 50 scores, but seems to store an infinite number

Tested on desktop XP and on my phone. It looks passable on both... a bit small on android, but good enough

Oh, and yes, fast - I've told you I wrote games for 48-hour gamedev competitions before, right? ;-)
