Create a Unity Game with Realm

Download and Import Unity's Platformer Microgame

Unity Hub comes pre-installed with templates, such as the Platformer Microgame, to help users learn to develop games for Unity. You'll start by loading the Platformer Microgame template. In later steps, you will import and add Realm functionality to the game.

Click the Learn tab on the left side of Unity Hub to view the list of template projects. Scroll to the Platformer Microgame and click it.

On the Modal that appears, click the Download Project button to download the project. When the download is complete, click Open Project to open the project in Unity.

When you open the Platformer Microgame template, Unity prompts you with the option to Load Scene or Load Tutorials.

If you are new to developing with Unity, click Load Tutorials to learn Unity editor basics, interacting with Game Objects, and more. Once you feel comfortable working with the Unity Editor, you can continue to the next step. Alternatively, if you are already comfortable working with the Unity editor, click Load Scene and continue to the next step in this tutorial.

Once the scene is loaded, click the play button on the top of the screen to enter play mode and play the game.

In later steps, you will use Realm Database to record:

• how many enemies the Player defeated per playthrough

• how many tokens were collected

• a score that is calculated based on the statistics for the current playthrough and how quickly you completed the playthrough

Unity stores the game's files in a temporary directory when you load a template project from the Learn tab. To save them to a local folder on your machine, click the X button at the top of the screen to close Unity. A modal opens and prompts if you want to keep this project. Select the Keep button and pick a folder to save your new project in.

Navigate to the Unity Hub menu to reopen your game. Select the Add button in the menu and click your project folder to add your new locally saved project to your list of projects on Unity Hub.

Update Your Project Manifest

Unity uses the project manifest to determine packages to install into your project. You'll need to update your project's manifest file to install Realm Database, and the Unity UI ToolKit and UI Builder packages to develop user interfaces to interact with and display data stored in realm.

Open your project's manifest file by navigating to your project on Unity Hub and expanding the dropdown menu on the right-hand side of your project name. Click the Reveal in Finder option if you're on a Mac or the Show in Explorer option if you're on a Windows machine. Open your project's /Packages/manifest.json file in a text editor.

Update your project's manifest file to include the following dependencies and scoped registries:

{
  "dependencies": {
    // ...
    "io.realm.unity": "10.5.0",
    "com.unity.ui": "1.0.0-preview.17",
    "com.unity.ui.builder": "1.0.0-preview.17"
  },
  "scopedRegistries": [
    {
      "name": "NPM",
      "url": "https://registry.npmjs.org/",
      "scopes": [
        "io.realm.unity"
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Download the Realm Tutorial Repository

Now that you have installed Realm, UI Builder, and UI Toolkit, you can begin recording data into Realm and building a user interface that can read and interact with that data.

We've already put together a repository with most of the code you'll need to accomplish that. You can clone or download the Realm Tutorial repository directly from GitHub:

Explore the Realm Tutorial Repository

In your text editor of choice, such as Visual Studio, you can see the script files you will need to add to the game. The relevant files are as follows:

Explore the Schemas

In the realm-tutorial-unity project that you have cloned, navigate to the PlayerModel.cs and StatModel.cs files in a text editor. These C# classes define the schemas for the objects we store in our realms.

Note the following about the schemas:

• A Stat is a realm object representing the statistics of a playthrough of the game. For instance, in one playthrough of the game, a Player may have defeated 10 enemies, collected 15 tokens, and had a score of 210. Each Stat has a statOwner that is a Player object.

• A Player is a realm object representing the user's logged-in character. Each Player has a collection (IList) of Stat objects.

• A Player has a string property, _id, that defines the Player objects' unique partition.

Create a RealmController Game Object

The RealmController.cs file is a script that contains boilerplate code for this tutorial, such as a Start() method that automatically generates Leaderboard, Authentication, and ScoreCard UI objects and attaches the AuthenticationManager.cs, LeaderboardManager.cs, and ScoreCardManager.cs scripts to their respective UI Game Objects. In later steps, you will add functionality to the RealmController script to perform the following:

• Open a realm.

• Set a logged-in Player.

• Interact with the Player and Stat models.

• Create, read, update, and delete the current playthrough Stat object.

Before you begin updating the code in the RealmController.cs file, you'll need to create a new Game Object for it.

Create an empty Game Object by right-clicking the hierarchy window and selecting Create Empty. Name the object RealmController.

Next, open the inspector window by clicking the new RealmController object.

Next, attach the RealmController.cs script to the RealmController object. Click the Add Component button, and select the Scripts option in the dropdown.

Finally, select the RealmController.cs script to attach it to the RealmController object.

Click the play button on the top of the screen to enter play mode and play the game. You should see something like the following:

Notice, when you type a username and click Login & Start Game, Unity navigates you to the platformer game, but the username field on the right-hand side of the game screen is a static username rather than the one you inputted. You'll add functionality to replace the static username value with a dynamic user input later.

Open a Realm

Open the RealmController.cs file with a text editor, where we'll implement a function to open a realm. To open a realm instance that you will use throughout the RealmController class, add the following code to the GetRealm() method:

return Realm.GetInstance();

Set a Logged In User

In the RealmController.cs file, you will need to implement a function to set the logged-in user. The AuthenticationManager.cs file calls this function when a user clicks the Login & Start button.

The RealmController.SetLoggedInUser() method takes a string, userInput. You will create code to do the following in this method:

• Query the realm to determine if a Player object already exists for the given userInput.

• Create an if-else block that creates a new Player and a new Stat realm object if the Player does not exist, and uses the existing Player and creates a new Stat object if the Player does exist.

Add the following code to your RealmController.SetLoggedInUser() method:

// query the realm to find any Player objects with the matching name
var matchedPlayers = realm.All<Player>().Where(p => p.Name == userInput);
if (matchedPlayers.Count() > 0) // if the player exists
{
    currentPlayer = matchedPlayers.First();
    var stat = new Stat();
    stat.StatOwner = currentPlayer;
    realm.Write(() =>
    {
        currentStat = realm.Add(stat);
        currentPlayer.Stats.Add(currentStat);
    });
}
else
{
    var player = new Player();
    player.Id = ObjectId.GenerateNewId().ToString();
    player.Name = userInput;
    var stat = new Stat();
    stat.StatOwner = player;
    realm.Write(() =>
    {
        currentPlayer = realm.Add(player);
        currentStat = realm.Add(stat);
        currentPlayer.Stats.Add(currentStat);
    });
}

After the above code is executed, the RealmController.SetLoggedInUser() function calls startGame() to begin the timer. The timer increments the RealmController's runTime variable, and we use the runTime variable to calculate bonus points in the playerWon() method when the game has completed.

Update the Stats and Watch for Changes

You've set the current Scorecard to the initial playthrough statistics for the current playthrough of the game, but collecting tokens or defeating enemies will not impact the current Stat object yet. To implement that, you'll edit the CollectToken() and DefeatEnemy() methods in the RealmController.

Add the following code to the RealmController.CollectToken() method to perform a write transaction and update the variable currentStat that you created in the last step:

realm.Write(() =>
{
    currentStat.TokensCollected += 1;
});

Call the CollectToken() method when the Player collides with the token instance. This occurs in the platformer microgame file:

/Assets/Scripts/Mechanics/TokenInstance.cs. In the TokenInstance.cs file, the OnPlayerEnter() occurs when a Player has collided with the token instance. Add the following code to OnPlayerEnter() after collected = true.

RealmController.CollectToken();

Add the following code to the RealmController.DefeatEnemy() method to perform a write transaction and update the variable currentStat that you created in the last step:

realm.Write(() =>
{
    currentStat.EnemiesDefeated += 1;
});

Navigate to the /Assets/Scripts/Gameplay/EnemyDeath.cs file and call RealmController.DefeatEnemy() at the beginning of the Execute() method.

RealmController.DefeatEnemy();

Finally, create a listener that reacts to changes to the current playthrough's Stat and updates the Scorecard in the UI. In the` ScoreCardManager.cs file, you can add a change listener to the current Stat realm object defined as the RealmController.currentStat variable. In the WatchForChangesToCurrentStats() method, handle the Stat object's PropertyChanged event:

propertyHandler = new PropertyChangedEventHandler((sender, e) => UpdateCurrentStats());
currentStat.PropertyChanged += propertyHandler;

The Scorecard now updates if the Player defeats an enemy or collects a token.

Restart the Game When the Player Wins

When the Player reaches the end of the Microgame level, the game is complete, but nothing else happens. To expand upon this, you will update the code to do the following when the Player wins the game:

• Call the RealmController.PlayerWon() method to calculate and write the final score to realm

• Display a dialog with the final score

• Respawn the Player and restarts the game if the Player clicks the restart button

Navigate to the Platformer Microgame file, /Assets/Scripts/Gameplay/PlayerEnteredVictoryZone.cs, in your text editor. This script is executed when the Player enters the victory zone.

To create a dialogue, you'll need the UnityEditor.EditorUtility class. Add the following code to the top of the file:

using UnityEditor;

Replace the existing Execute() method in the PlayerEnteredVictoryZone script with the snippet below:

public override void Execute()
{
    var finalScore = RealmController.PlayerWon();
    var didClickRestart = EditorUtility.DisplayDialog("You won!", $"Final Score = {finalScore}", "restart game");
    if (didClickRestart == true)
    {
       Simulation.Schedule<PlayerSpawn>(2);
       RealmController.RestartGame();
    }
}

Delete the Current Playthrough Stats When the Player Loses

When the Player loses by colliding with an enemy or by falling from a platform, the game starts a new playthrough and respawns the Player back to the start point but does not create a new Stat object for the new playthrough. To expand upon this, you'll perform the following when the Player loses the game:

• Update the RealmController.DeleteCurrentStat() method to delete the current Stat object for the current playthrough

• Call the RealmController.DeleteCurrentStat() method

• Call the RealmController.RestartGame() method to create a new Stat object for the new playthrough

Navigate to the RealmController.DeleteCurrentStat() method and add the following code at the bottom of that method:

realm.Write(() =>
{
    realm.Remove(currentStat);
    currentPlayer.Stats.Remove(currentStat);
});

Next, open the Platformer Microgame file, /Assets/Scripts/Gameplay/PlayerDeath.cs, which handles the player death event. Add the following code to the end of the PlayerDeath's Execute() method:

RealmController.DeleteCurrentStat();
RealmController.RestartGame();

Return to the Unity Editor, and click play to enter play mode. The next time your Player loses, the game respawns the Player to the start point with a new Stat object showing 0 enemies defeated, 0 tokens collected.

Customize Your Game Assets (Optional)

To add a personal touch to the game, you can modify its assets from the Unity Editor. Navigate to Assets/Tiles in the Project Window to find a set of tiles that the game uses.

To modify a tile, click the tile to open its inspector window. From the inspector window, you can change the sprite that the tile uses and its color.

In the example below, we replaced the fence tile's sprite with the fence_brown sprite that comes with the Platformer Microgame.

You can choose any tile colors and sprites you would like. We went with the following for an earth-toned and friendly look:

Run and Test

Once you have completed the code, you can run the app and check its functionality.

Click the play button on the top of the screen to enter play mode and play the game. Once the Unity Editor opens the GameView, here are some things you can try out:

• Logging in with a username.

• Achieving a new high score and seeing the leaderboard update with it on the next playthrough.

• Achieving a new high score using a different user and seeing the leaderboard update with the highscore on the next playthrough.

Enable Atlas Device Sync

Before you can add Sync functionality within your game, you must enable Device Sync in your App Services App.

To enable Device Sync, follow the steps in the Enable Atlas Device Sync guide. When enabling Sync, you will need to configure your app to:

• use Development Mode

• add a required Partition Key with the name "_partition" and with the type string

Connect to Your MongoDB Realm App

To get the app working with your backend, you first need to add your App Services App ID to the Constants.cs file:

public const string AppId = "<your-realm-app-ID-here>";

Change the value of AppId to your App Services app ID, which you can find in the App Services UI.

Open a Synced Realm

To configure the SDK to automatically synchronize data between devices, you'll need to replace your local realm with a synced realm.

In the RealmController.cs file, replace the existing GetRealm() method with the one that takes in a User as a parameter and asynchronously gets a synced realm instance:

// GetRealm() is an asynchronous method that returns a synced realm
// GetRealm() takes a logged in Realms.Sync.User as a parameter
private static async Task<Realm> GetRealm(User loggedInUser)
{
    var syncConfiguration = new SyncConfiguration("UnityTutorialPartition", loggedInUser);
    return await Realm.GetInstanceAsync(syncConfiguration);
}

Opening a synced realm requires a logged-in realm user; you'll set that up in the next step.

Update the Authentication Screen and Manager

To add support for Email/Password Authentication, you'll need to update your Authentication Screen to have a password field and a button that allows users to toggle between a registration mode and login mode.

Replace the code in your Authentication.uxml with the following:

<ui:UXML xmlns:ui="UnityEngine.UIElements" xmlns:uie="UnityEditor.UIElements" xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" engine="UnityEngine.UIElements" editor="UnityEditor.UIElements" noNamespaceSchemaLocation="../../UIElementsSchema/UIElements.xsd" editor-extension-mode="False">
    <Style src="Stylesheet.uss" />
    <ui:VisualElement name="auth-wrapper" class="auth-wrapper" >
        <ui:Label text="Realm Platformer" display-tooltip-when-elided="true" name="game-title" class="game-title" />
        <ui:Label text="Defeat Enemies and Collect Tokens!" display-tooltip-when-elided="true" name="defeat-enemies-subtitle" class="game-subtitle"/>
        <ui:Label text="Earn Bonus Points by Completing the Game Quicker!" display-tooltip-when-elided="true" name="earn-bonus-points-subtitle" class="game-subtitle"/>
        <ui:Label text="Play Your Way to the Top of the Leaderboard!" display-tooltip-when-elided="true" name="play-to-leaderboard-subtitle" class="game-subtitle" />
        <ui:Label text="Login:" display-tooltip-when-elided="true" name="subtitle" class="subtitle" />
        <ui:TextField picking-mode="Ignore" label="username" value="username" text="your.name@example.com" name="username-input" class="auth-input" />
        <ui:TextField input-type="password" picking-mode="Ignore" label="password" value="password" name="password-input" class="auth-input" />
        <ui:Button text="Login &amp; Start Game" display-tooltip-when-elided="true" name="start-button" class="start-button" />
        <ui:Button text="Don&apos;t have an account yet? Register" display-tooltip-when-elided="true" name="toggle-login-or-register-ui-button" class="toggle-login-or-register-ui-button" />
    </ui:VisualElement>
    <ui:Button text="Logout" display-tooltip-when-elided="true" name="logout-button" class="logout-button hide" focusable="false" />
</ui:UXML>

You'll need to refactor your AuthenticationManager's Start() method to contain code that does the following:

• Defines the passInput variable as a password TextField.

• Defines the toggleLoginOrRegisterUIButton variable as a button.

• Handles the toggle register/login button's click event and toggles between a register mode and login mode

In AuthenticationManager.cs, add the following code to your Start() method, replacing the existing startButton.clicked event handler with the one below:

logoutButton.clicked += RealmController.LogOutBackend;
passInput = root.Q<TextField>("password-input");
passInput.isPasswordField = true;
//  when the start button is clicked, toggle between registration modes
startButton.clicked += () =>
{
    if (isInRegistrationMode == true)
    {
        OnPressRegister();
    }
    else
    {
        OnPressLoginWithBackend();
    }
};
toggleLoginOrRegisterUIButton = root.Q<Button>("toggle-login-or-register-ui-button");
toggleLoginOrRegisterUIButton.clicked += () =>
{
    // if in registration mode, swap to the login mode
    if (isInRegistrationMode == true)
    {
        SwitchToLoginUI();
        isInRegistrationMode = false;
    }
    else
    {
        SwitchToRegisterUI();
        isInRegistrationMode = true;
    }
};

Next, create a AuthenticationManager.SwitchToLoginUI() and AuthenticationManager.SwitchToRegisterUI() method to toggle between authentication UI modes:

// SwitchToLoginUI() switches the UI to the Login UI mode
private static void SwitchToLoginUI()
{
    subtitle.text = "Login";
    startButton.text = "Login & Start Game";
    toggleLoginOrRegisterUIButton.text = "Don't have an account yet? Register";
}
// SwitchToRegisterUI() switches the UI to the Register UI mode
private static void SwitchToRegisterUI()
{
    subtitle.text = "Register";
    startButton.text = "Signup & Start Game";
    toggleLoginOrRegisterUIButton.text = "Have an account already? Login";
}

Replace the existing AuthenticationManager.OnPressLogin() method with the one below, called OnPressLoginWithBackend that uses Email/Password Authentication:

// OnPressLoginWithBackend() is an asynchronous method that calls
// RealmController.SetLoggedInUser to login and passes the currentPlayer to
// ScoreCardManager and LeaderboardManager; once logged in the login screen
// is hidden and the logout button is shown
private static async void OnPressLoginWithBackend()
{
    try
    {
        var currentPlayer = await RealmController.SetLoggedInUser(userInput.value, passInput.value);
        if (currentPlayer != null)
        {
            HideAuthenticationUI();
        }
        ScoreCardManager.SetLoggedInUser(currentPlayer.Name);
        LeaderboardManager.Instance.SetLoggedInUser(currentPlayer.Name);
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        Debug.Log("an exception was thrown:" + ex.Message);
    }
}

Notice that there is now a password parameter for the RealmController.SetLoggedInUser() method. You will update that method in the next step.

Finally, create an AuthenticationManager.OnPressRegister() method that calls a RealmController.OnPressRegister() method that you will create in the next step:

// OnPressRegister() passes RealmController.OnPressRegister() the values of
// the userInput and  passInput TextFields in order to register a user
private static async void OnPressRegister()
{
    try
    {
        var currentPlayer = await RealmController.OnPressRegister(userInput.value, passInput.value);
        if (currentPlayer != null)
        {
            HideAuthenticationUI();
        }
        ScoreCardManager.SetLoggedInUser(currentPlayer.Name);
        LeaderboardManager.Instance.SetLoggedInUser(currentPlayer.Name);
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        Debug.Log("an exception was thrown:" + ex.Message);
    }
}

Setup Authentication in your Game

Currently, the project's only form of authentication is a username input. Let's replace that in the code with realm Email/Password Authentication

In the RealmController.cs, replace the SetLoggedInUser() with an asynchronous method that logs in using the LogInAsync() method to authenticate and obtain a User instance:

// SetLoggedInUser() is an asynchronous method that logs in as a Realms.Sync.User, creates a new Stat object for the current playthrough
// and returns the Player object that corresponds to the logged in Realms.Sync.User
// SetLoggedInUser() takes a userInput and passInput, representing a username/password, as a parameter
public static async Task<Player> SetLoggedInUser(string userInput, string passInput)
{
    syncUser = await realmApp.LogInAsync(Credentials.EmailPassword(userInput, passInput));
    if (syncUser != null)
    {
        realm = await GetRealm(syncUser);
        currentPlayer = realm.Find<Player>(syncUser.Id);
        if (currentPlayer != null)
        {
            var stat = new Stat();
            stat.StatOwner = currentPlayer;
            realm.Write(() =>
            {
                currentStat = realm.Add(stat);
                currentPlayer.Stats.Add(currentStat);
            });
            StartGame();
        }
        else
        {
            Debug.Log("This player exists a MongoDB Realm User but not as a Realm Object, please delete the MongoDB Realm User and create one using the Game rather than MongoDB Atlas or Realm Studio");
        }
    }
    return currentPlayer;
}

Next, in the RealmController.cs file, create an asynchronous method that registers a new user by passing a user-provided email and password to the RegisterUserAsync() method:

// OnPressRegister() is an asynchronous method that registers a user,
// creates a new Player and Stat object OnPressRegister takes a userInput
// and passInput, representing a username/password, as a parameter
public static async Task<Player> OnPressRegister(string userInput, string passInput)
{
    await realmApp.EmailPasswordAuth.RegisterUserAsync(userInput, passInput);
    syncUser = await realmApp.LogInAsync(Credentials.EmailPassword(userInput, passInput));
    realm = await GetRealm(syncUser);
    var player = new Player();
    player.Id = syncUser.Id;
    player.Name = userInput;
    var stat = new Stat();
    stat.StatOwner = player;
    realm.Write(() =>
    {
        currentPlayer = realm.Add(player);
        currentStat = realm.Add(stat);
        currentPlayer.Stats.Add(currentStat);
    });
    StartGame();
    return currentPlayer;
}

Finally, replace the RealmController.LogOut() method with the RealmController.LogOutBackend() method below that calls User.LogOutAsync() to log out the realm user when log out button is clicked.

// LogOutBackend() is an asynchronous method that logs out 
// the current MongoDB Realm User
public static async void LogOutBackend()
{
    await syncUser.LogOutAsync();
    SceneManager.LoadScene(SceneManager.GetActiveScene().buildIndex);
}

Create a Real-Time Leaderboard with Atlas Device Sync

The current leaderboard shows the top Stat objects when the game first loads. However, if another Player gets a new high score after the game loads on your device, the leaderboard on your device will not be updated.

To fix this, you will update the code in the LeaderboardManager.cs file to do the following:

• Open a synced realm

• Listen to changes on all Stat objects

• Update the Leaderboard GameObject when there is a new high score

Navigate to LeaderboardManager.cs and add the following function that opens a synced realm using the RealmController.syncUser variable that you created earlier:

// GetRealm() is an asynchronous method that returns a synced realm
private static async Task<Realm> GetRealm()
{
    var syncConfiguration = new SyncConfiguration("UnityTutorialPartition", RealmController.syncUser);
    return await Realm.GetInstanceAsync(syncConfiguration);
}

In LeaderboardManager.cs make the SetLoggedInUser() an asynchronous function and replace the existing Realm.GetInstance() call with a call to the new GetRealm() method. Your code should look something like the following snippet:

// SetLoggedInUser() is an asynchronous method that opens a realm, calls the CreateLeaderboardUI() method to create the LeaderboardUI and adds it to the Root Component
// and calls SetStatListener() to start listening for changes to all Stat objects in order to update the global leaderboard
// SetLoggedInUser() takes a userInput, representing a username, as a parameter
public async void SetLoggedInUser(string userInput)
{
    username = userInput;
    realm = await GetRealm();

Next, create a Change Listener method:

// SetStatListener sets a listener on all Stat objects, and calls
// SetNewlyInsertedScores if one has been inserted
private void SetStatListener()
{
    // Observe collection notifications. Retain the token to keep observing.
    listenerToken = realm.All<Stat>()
        .SubscribeForNotifications((sender, changes, error) =>
        {
            if (error != null)
            {
                // Show error message
                Debug.Log("an error occurred while listening for score changes :" + error);
                return;
            }
            if (changes != null)
            {
                SetNewlyInsertedScores(changes.InsertedIndices);
            }
        });
}

Create a method, SetNewlyInsertedScores() that does the following:

• Loops through a list of indices of inserted elements to find the newly created Stat objects.

• Loops through the current top scores to determine if the new Stat object's score is higher than the current score.

• Updates the list of current top scores if there is a higher one and updates the UI to display the new list of top scores.

// SetNewlyInsertedScores() determines if a new Stat is
// greater than any existing topStats, and if it is, inserts it into the
// topStats list in descending order
// SetNewlyInsertedScores() takes an array of insertedIndices
private void SetNewlyInsertedScores(int[] insertedIndices)
{
    foreach (var i in insertedIndices)
    {
        var newStat = realm.All<Stat>().ElementAt(i);
        for (var scoreIndex = 0; scoreIndex < topStats.Count; scoreIndex++)
        {
            if (topStats.ElementAt(scoreIndex).IsValid == true && topStats.ElementAt(scoreIndex).Score < newStat.Score)
            {
                if (topStats.Count > 4)
                {   // An item shouldn't be removed if the leaderboard has less than 5 items
                    topStats.RemoveAt(topStats.Count - 1);
                }
                topStats.Insert(scoreIndex, newStat);
                root.Remove(listView); // remove the old listView
                CreateTopStatListView(); // create a new listView
                root.Add(listView); // add the new listView to the UI
                break;
            }
        }
    }
}

Call the SetStatListener() after the user is logged-in, at the end of the LeaderboardManager's SetLoggedInUser() method:

SetStatListener();

Finally, dispose of the listener token once the Leaderboard GameObject is disabled in the OnDisable() method:

if (listenerToken != null)
{
    listenerToken.Dispose();
}

Run and Test

Once you have completed the code, you can run the game and check its functionality. Click the play button on the top of the screen to enter play mode and play the game. Once the Unity Editor opens the GameView, you should see something like the following images.

After you register an account or log in to an existing account, you can play the complete game

Here are some things you can try out:

• Authenticating a new user.

• Getting a new high score and seeing the leaderboard update in real-time.

• Creating a new Stat object with a high score in Realm Studio or Atlas and seeing the leaderboard update in real-time.
