How to Create a Leaderboard

One of the essential elements of a multiplayer HTML5 game is the leaderboard. This system keeps track of the players’ scores and can be used to get their details for marketing.

There’s a tutorial series on GitHub that will help developers create leaderboards for their game. The guide offers useful tips for both the client and server tasks.

Leaderboard

Initializing the leaderboard can be created using the createLeaderBoard function and Phaser’s graphics library. To automatically update scores from the server, developers can use the lbupdate function.
