High Score list on iPad [Video]

Since there's no standardized way of saving high scores in games, if any at all, I coded a little website to store my high scores.

I've got a cronjobbed script on the MiSTer that reads the active core from a temp file and curls it to my server.

A live mode on the website anchors to the relevant game in (near) realtime, as shown in the video.

High scores and initials are stored in a database, so it requires manual input on the website, but at least it's all in one place.

It also allows for my friends to set high scores on my list, even when they're playing on their own setup - as long as they use identical settings (as shown below the high score table for each game) and I input it for them or they get the password for setting the edit token.

That's dope. I'd love to get that setup for myself!

Very cool project!
Wish this was somehow integrated into tty2rpi.
