Utils

Miscellaneous static helpers in FronkonGames.GameWork.Foundation for launch arguments and persisted player settings. No components or setup required.

Utility	Source	Role
Command line	CommandLineUtils.cs	Read flags and values from the process command line
Player prefs	PlayerPrefsUtils.cs	Typed PlayerPrefs with product-scoped keys

---

CommandLineUtils

Why use it: Read dev and QA flags at startup without parsing Environment.GetCommandLineArgs() yourself. Toggle god mode, skip intros, force a level, or enable debug overlays from a build's launch arguments or Unity's Player Settings → Resolution and Presentation → Command Line Arguments.

CommandLineUtils.cs

Format

Arguments start with - and are case-insensitive. A flag may stand alone or be followed by a value. Values cannot contain spaces.

-game -level 3 -godmode -username PlayerOne

Method	Description
GetArguments()	All args except the program name
HasArgument(name)	Whether -name is present
GetValue(name, defaultValue)	Value after -name, or default if missing

using FronkonGames.GameWork.Foundation;

// Launch: MyGame.exe -level 5 -godmode -username Hero
if (CommandLineUtils.HasArgument("godmode") == true)
  playerInvincible = true;

string levelName = CommandLineUtils.GetValue("level", defaultValue: "1");
string user = CommandLineUtils.GetValue("username", defaultValue: "Guest");

In the Unity Editor Test Runner, GetArguments() returns a fixed test set so unit tests do not depend on the real process args.

PlayerPrefsUtils

Why use it: PlayerPrefs only stores int, float, and string. This wrapper adds bool, DateTime, Vector2/3/4, Quaternion, and Color, and prefixes every key with Application.productName so multiple games in the same Unity project do not collide on the same machine.

PlayerPrefsUtils.cs

Key prefix

Internal key format: {Application.productName}.{yourKey}

If productName is empty, the raw key is used. Use short logical names ("music_volume"), the prefix is applied automatically.

API

Category	Methods
Key management	HasKey, DeleteKey, DeleteAll
Primitives	Get/SetBool, Get/SetInt, Get/SetFloat, Get/SetString
Unity types	Get/SetVector2, Get/SetVector3, Get/SetVector4, Get/SetQuaternion, Get/SetColor
Other	Get/SetDateTime (invariant culture)

bool is stored as int (0/1). Vectors, colors, and dates are serialized to string via StringExtensions and Unity extensions.

using FronkonGames.GameWork.Foundation;
using UnityEngine;

// Scene: Bootstrap, restore settings on load
if (PlayerPrefsUtils.HasKey("music_volume") == true)
  audioMixer.SetFloat("Music", PlayerPrefsUtils.GetFloat("music_volume", 0.8f));
else
  PlayerPrefsUtils.SetFloat("music_volume", 0.8f);

PlayerPrefsUtils.SetBool("tutorial_done", true);
PlayerPrefsUtils.SetVector3("last_checkpoint", checkpointPosition);
PlayerPrefsUtils.SetColor("ui_accent", accentColor);

// Remember when the player last saved
PlayerPrefsUtils.SetDateTime("last_save", System.DateTime.UtcNow);

Call PlayerPrefs.Save() from Unity when you need to flush to disk immediately, these helpers delegate to PlayerPrefs and do not call Save() for you.
