Question by AwesomeFaceHD · Mar 19, 2014 at 07:26 PM · multiplayerdatabaseloginonlineaccount

Best/Cheapest Way To Have Online Accounts On PC?

I want users to have their own online accounts when the play my games. I would like to be able to create and login to this account across all of my games. Coding it isn't really the problem, it's where to store the accounts. It would be cool to be able to sign in with Twitter or something. How would I go about doing this? Would I have to pay for hosting services.

don't think that there is any free way unless you don't plan on storing any additional info on the server. There are free hosting sites that you could try to use, but those probably won't like the idea of being used for that

I don't think this is in the scope of Unity. Rather, I would research web hosting and server programming.

Not sure if this is what you mean but have you tried Photon (free)? Or any other service like it? There is also a paid version of photon you might want to look into that as well. Hope this helps :)
