To run or test Game Center code in your app, you have to create a custom App ID on Apple's Provisioning Portal and use it to build your app.
First, you will need to log into your Apple Developer account on the iOS Dev Center at https://developer.apple.com/devcenter/ios/index.action.
Once you're logged in, the iOS Dev Center main page should appear.
- From the main page of the iOS Dev Center, open the Provisioning Portal:
- Once on the Provisioning Portal, select the Identifiers link from the iOS Apps section and click on the Identifiers header again in the resulting screen to expand it:
- Once the header is expanded, click on the App IDs link and click on the button in the upper-right corner with the plus + icon to register a new App ID:
- In the screen that pops up, first enter a descriptive name for your App ID, usually the name of your app:
- Next, scroll down and enter a bundle ID, a reverse-domain-name format identifier specific to your organization, school, or studio:
- After you click on Submit, you can see that your App ID is enabled for Game Center:
