To make the described requests work, ensure a leaderboard is created in the developer console.

Leaderboard example

Here's an example implementation of a leaderboard display:

  • A loading spinner before showing the leaderboard.
  • Displaying scores and player names.
  • Showing player avatars.
  • Showing the user's position in the leaderboard.

The example uses Text localization, Localizing sprites, and the Adaptive text plugin.
