Can you have options like "follow blank on twitter for 500 coins" in your game?

    @ohtukrw i guess if noone tells us one way we could do it is this: have a thing that says "follow blank on twitter for 500 coins" and make it to where if they click the link to the twitter or whatever site you want they automatically get +500 coins. They would still get the coins even if they didnt actually follow when theyre there but most people would still follow because they wouldnt know that. would have to make it to where they can only click once tho because they could exploit it and get unlimited coins or whatevr youre using

    Twitter you can post (including an image) if you have the pro membership.

    Facebook they are trying to get right at the moment. It was in a test version a while back...

    There is some info on my thread

    People mentioned that the award systems are only possible with additional server programming scripts. So you would need to host + pay for the script.
    I would assume that tweet sheet works more as a voluntary engagement from player's side.

    I used to do a button in game that when you push it, it pops up a box saying:

    Post your high score to @ NNTERPRISES and recieve free points or something

    Then if they posted it, I messaged them a code to type in in game which game them points.

    Or you can do if you push the twitter button it gives you points but only once

    But in conclusion, there's not an easy way to KNOW if someone followed you through your game using gamesalad
