Exciting news! We’ve just dropped incremental scores for leaderboards, allowing you to update player scores by a modifier instead of having to fetch, increment, and then send us the new score.
This can be useful for tracking ongoing progress, like completing levels or earning points during a session.

This value can be used in a variety of ways, like tracking engagement or rewarding login streaks.
This value is returned from all of our start session endpoints under the key last_seen, in player metadata with the key ll.last_seen or can be accessed through the SDK on session start.
