Scoring algo
We believe in transparency, which is why we're sharing the exact formula used to calculate player's score
B - Base is 1,000
H - Half-life factor is 300
G - Sum of all game points (see table)
D - Decay rate
T - Game timer
D = ln(2) / H
SCORE = B * e−D·T + G
Example level timer: {{sampleGameTimer | number : 1}} sec
Example score: {{sampleGameScore | number : 3}}
Item | Points |
|---|---|
| Minion kill | 1 |
| Coin collected | 3 |
| Diamond collected | 5 |
Scoring algorithm interpretation:
1. Exponential Decay Component e−D·TThe term represents a decaying score over time, modeled using exponential decay.
With a half-life of 300, it means:
After 300 time units (seconds), this part of the score is reduced by half (from 1000 to 500).
After 600 units, it's at 250, and so on.
This creates time pressure — players are incentivized to complete the game quickly to preserve this decaying score component.
2. Game Points (G)
G is static and additive: these are unaffected by time.
This part allows players to earn back points by doing well in the game, regardless of time.
