Hi I am new to both PlayerIO and database managed games, and my question may be obvious so bear with me!
What I want is a game that could authenticate players via both its own SimpleUsers login system and Facebook, but keep a unified database of the two, with one account details kept for the player no matter where/how he logs on?
IE:
1) A player may visit, lets say NewGrounds, and log into the game via the games dedicated login system and access his saved details.
2) Then maybe this same player visits facebook, and plays the game as a Facebook app, where he is authenticated via Facebook's own system, and be able to access the same account, and continue the game where he left off on newgrounds?
Of course you also have the scenario, where the player plays the game first on Newgrounds, so he registers his account as a SimpleUsers account, but then later discovers the game as a facebook app, and may want to continue the game with the details/achievements he got back on newgrounds. So I suppose there would need to be a feature to "Link" or "Merge" accounts ?
I hope this makes sense?! Is this feature possible/supported?
