divide the time by 60 to get the minutes
then use text appending to add the minutes and seconds together

whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy! man to do anything cool you need a paid acc and no if you couldn’t tell sadly so ig that went out a window the only way i could make this work is if i was on a team and the team leader made a game and they have a paid acc

You can do a lot of cool stuff with a free account too cloud save is indie only because you have to spend money on servers so indie makes some of it back

Use saves. I started by deciding if your ending score is bigger than your highscore, and if it is, I would save the save file as that new highscore. For time you’d check if it is smaller.
