iRis AG F.A.Q.

Q. How do I save my game?
A. The easiest way is to simply exit the game, in which case the auto-save functionality is invoked. The other way is to pause the game via the 'Pause' button, then exit game to the Main Menu via the 'Exit' button, in which case a menu will display asking you to 'Save' your game or 'Discard' it. Restarting your game is as easy as pressing 'Play' from the Main Menu, in which case another menu will display asking you to 'Resume' your game or 'Start Anew'.

Q. I don't currently have internet, how do I save my score to submit for later?
A. Still checkbox the "Submit scores online?" checkbox on the Game Over screen and just click the 'Next' button as though you did have internet (thus causing the submit step to fail). The mechanism to save a score for later works this same way in the event that the score server is down for maintenance, etc. You will see the 'Submit' button via the Main Menu's Records screen enabled if there are scores yet to be submitted. After you submit, you can refresh the score board to see your recently posted standings.

Q. What is "regional" scores? (also How do I view my scores of people from my country?)
A. This simply means scores based on country-of-origin. We use I.P. address to country conversion software to handle this, so the I.P. address you are accessing the score board with determines the scores you see. Also note that using a proxy or other I.P. NAT software can potentially disrupt this functionality.

Q. I have internet available, yet every time I try to submit a score I get a failure message. Why?
A. The most likely problem is that you have been tripped up by our integrated anti-cheating mechanism that verifies the score your submitting is legit. The algorithms relating to this process are quite complex and occasionally produce false negatives. After so many submissions, the system can decide to ban you. Post a message on the Technical Support forum and a moderator can check your submission history and unban you if this be the case.
