How to make a High Score window?

GoodnightMoon

Helloooo ^_^

Okay so I was just wondering how to make a high score pop up in front of the game whenever my character has died? But I don't just want the number, I want it in like a separate window, along with a replay button and a home button.

I currently only have two scenes made - a Home scene and the actual game (which is an endless runner so it just goes continuously vertical). Would I therefore have to make another scene to use as this High Score window?

I appreciate any and all help, thank you very much

You could create an extra scene with your fancy score and the buttons etc and then when the character dies use the pause game behaviour. It shows the scene on top

And you're sure this'll work? You've not helped me that much in the past...

I'm just making up a new scene now in Illustrator! Thank you (as always)

yeah it should work.

If you look at the airship template that's on the welcome screen of GameSalad Creator you will see that uses the pause game behaviour and calls the game over screen where the score is shown.
