Hello everyone, I am starting a new game idea and I want to know how I can make the game continue "playing" when I am offline so I can continue to earn coins and so on, a lot of games do this already on Android and it's become a common thing now. Any help with text, videos or even examples would be greatly appreciated!

Many thanks and take care :)

You can save current date and time in LocalStorage every 10 seconds. Then, on start of game - get current date, subtract the LocalStorage value and calculate player's profit. To get time/date - you can use the built-in "Date" plugin, or use expression "unixtime" which returns time passed in milliseconds since JAN 01 1970.

Great! Thank you, I will be back if I still have questions... let's hope this goes well lol. I'm assuming this will only work if I test it on an APK right?
