Flipping Text Upside Down

Hey Everyone, this is my first time posting. I combed the forums looking for a solution to my problem but couldn't seem to find anything. Anyways here goes:

I am creating a game that is meant to be played on the iphone (or any smart phone) between two players holding the device between them. I want a score to be kept for each player every time they get a point. I want the score to be displayed so that each player can read their own score. For one player this is no problem, the text being shown rightside up will read just fine, for the other player however I need to flip the score upside down. I have already set up the scores, they function perfectly, I just need to flip one.

There are fonts that display the letters upside down, so you could display the text backwards and use an upside down font. That or if you are using an image for your font, flip that, and you have an upside down font.

This won't be an issue in 1.5, as rotation is supported... but in the mean time you'll have to do what skydereign said
