Game Devs: Our API now supports Cloud Saves! This allows players to save their game data to their NG account, so they can switch between devices without losing their progress.
@PsychoGoldfish has also created a new Unity implementation of our API, fully documented with code examples and a demo you can steal from!
If you add cloud saves to your game, let me know because we’ll want to feature some examples!
