Maybe a `set high score to {number}` or `reset high score`? Because I am making a game with multiple levels and I want each level to have a different high score.

Reset HighScore

```auto
settings.remove("high-score")

```

You can see this by referring to the game.ts and info.ts sources.

In settings, each number is managed as a list with a KeyValue, but the determination of the high score is hard-coded in game.ts with the string “high-score”.  
Therefore, it would be easier to use your own variables to manipulate the high score.
