Account

Motivation

coherence provides an API for creating player game accounts that uniquely identify players across multiple devices. An account is required in order to use the rest of the online services, like the key-value store and matchmaking.

User Accounts

User accounts require explicit authorization by the player. Currently, only user name and password are supported as means for authentication. The user interface for entering the credentials must be provided by the game. Check the API how to use this feature.

In the future, there will be support for many more authentication mechanisms like Steam, Google Play Games, Sign in with Apple, etc.

Using player accounts from Unity
