Because I'm a giant :spergin: here's what I've seen for how scoring has worked thus far.


Multipliers

  • Hyper: 1x
  • Mega: 10x
  • Super: 20x
  • Ultra: 50x
  • Extra: 100x
  • Retro: 100x

Base Point Values

  • Gold: 10000
  • Breakable Barrier: 125
  • Springboard: 450
  • Core: 50000

The points from cores are multiplied by whatever mode they're upgrading to, so the actual points received from them are:

  • Mega: 500000
  • Super: 1000000
  • Ultra: 2500000
  • Extra: 5000000

As one additional side note, every hit on the Mingrawn Timbletot was apparently worth 500 million points.

Is there an achievement for carefully dodging every gold that isn't inescapably jammed in your way?

RUNNER is also the only game in the series that doesn't actively hate the player; getting a perfect score in most of the levels of RUNNER is very easy in comparison to what, say, one stage of BEAT will put you through.
