I’m trying to implement a contextual leaderboard system based on friends in my game, but I can’t find any resources on it online.

Subway Surfers and many others use Facebook Friends to store and display leaderboards contextually between friends. Is there a straight forward way of implementing this? Is it even possible? Would I need to pay or set up my own server for this? Help!!!

Here is a tut on making a leaderboard: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g4p1x6-Iyx4

This guy made a plugin that sets up the server for you. Idk how you would get facebook friends, but I am sure it is possible. I would imagine facebook would give you an API and then you could query the player for their name and the names of their friends and much more.

Thank you!!! I’ll give it a shot
