Why doesn't a particular game save scores? |

Symptom: A particular game appears to be working properly, but does not save scores. Other games are working and saving scores, but a particular one is not. Possible Cause 1: Some games don't yet work with PU Arcade. Possible Cause2: You changed the name of the game, which is different than the game title. When you edit a game, there is a field you can edit called game name. This is how PUArcade identifies a game to itself. If you change this, it will often break scoring. Resolution: 1. Make sure you leave the game name the same as what PUArcade auto-detected, unless you are troubleshooting and have a reason to change it. This isn't displayed anywhere, the title is what is shown on all the front end pages, so there shouldn't be a reason to change it. 2. If that doesn't work, send me a problem report with the name of the game and a link to download it, and I will check to see if it is compatible with PUArcade. If it isn't, I'll try to figure out why. If it is, I'll let you know.
