Information for super music game player
★Score Calculation Method
Score is determined solely by your ability to play the sound game.
Score is calculated by “Internal Score/Internal Score Theoretical Value*1000000+Internal CRITICAL Number”. There is no combo addition, so the score is determined by a simple percentage.
Internal Score
COINS: 4 points
CRITICAL: 4 points
ATTACK: 3 points
MISS: 0 points
Internal Score Theoretical Value
Total number of coins*4Total number of notes*4
For example, the theoretical value of a score with 100 total notes and 200 total coins is 1000100.
We may implement character types and character levels that affect the difficulty of clearing songs, but not those that affect the score.
★Judgment width
Internal CRITICAL judgment: 25 ms
CRITICAL judgment: 40ms
ATTACK judgment: 120ms

Rating Algorithm: Adjusted the Rating calculation algorithm. Note: Due to this change, your Rating may increase significantly during your next play session. Developer's Note (P.S.) I had been struggling for literally years with the bug where Rating update values (+0.01, etc.) wouldn't show up. It worked perfectly in the Unity Editor but would mysteriously disappear in the actual build—it was a real headache! It turns out the culprit was the execution order of the Start() function. To my fellow Unity developers: keep an eye on your script execution order! It can be a real trap.Read full article on Community Announcements (kens0306)
