Point — sonic

Points are abstracted units in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. They refer to the measuring system used for evaluating a player's performance during gameplay. Points are acquired by collecting items, defeating enemies and bosses, or by performing different actions. There are a multitude of different ways to collect points, with each game featuring different gimmicks. The total of all points is calculated in-game as the score. After reaching the goal of a level, all point counters are then aggregated to the total score.

A score system has been a part of the series since the beginning, with this being the original Sonic the Hedgehog, and virtually every game has followed suit.

Throughout the Sonic the Hedgehog series, points have referred to an abstract quantity associated with the player. During gameplay, various actions can raise the number of points the player have. Such actions include collecting different items like Rings, hitting breakable objects, utilizing gimmicks like the Rainbow Rings, defeating enemies or bosses, or executing certain tricks like Trick Actions or Real-Time Interactions. Number notifications are usually seen on the screen afterwards, either popping out the collected item, destroyed target or close to the HUD. Earning a specific amount of points may grant the player extra lives or clear specific achievements/missions. In certain games, the player can multiply the points earned by hitting/defeating multiple enemies or breakable objects in a row. Providing multiple hits can as well result in a Combo which will grant more points the longer it last. In later games such as Sonic Adventure 2, Sonic Heroes and Sonic the Hedgehog (2006), the player can also earn variable trick points with classifications from events like defeating enemies consecutively or performing certain moves, such as the Light Speed Dash. Additionally, most 3D games will reset the score back to 0 when losing a life.

After completing a , all HUD calculations are added to the total score, from . — After completing a Zone, all HUD calculations are added to the total score, from *Sonic the Hedgehog 2*.

Depending on the game, when the player reaches the end of a level, the end-of-level tally is split into different categories based on the HUD point counters and/or other gameplay elements. Like previously mentioned, the player can earn extra lives, Continues or other features while the acquired points are calculated during the aggregation of the total score. Evaluation-wise, Points are used as quantitative indicators of success in gameplay, and in most games, the quantity of points determines what rank the player will get at the end of a level. In games such as Sonic the Hedgehog (8-bit), the final score tally aggregates all total scores from each Act of the game (including the Special Bonuses for each completed Special Stage) after the player has cleared the whole game.

Certain parts of the games may operate with their own score systems, such as Special Stages, Bonus Stages or mini-games, where the player earns points in a similar fashion, usually from Ring bonuses. In Special Stages specifically, the scores earned here will be calculated into the total score after exiting one. Different multiplayer modes may also award the players with points for their respective scores, which are tallied up upon finishing the multiplayer modes and may affect the selection of the multiplayer mode's winner. Arcade games may also feature high score lists which players can get their name on by getting enough points after clearing the gameplay.

There exist other forms of score categories that serve different gameplay purposes. Experience Points can be obtained from certain accomplishment and can be used to evolve the playable characters, while Gravity Points in Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity are stored in the GP Gauge and allow usage of Gravity Actions.

Sonic Adventure 2

This section requires an expansion.

Rings: Collecting one Ring adds 10 points to the score.
Tricks: Starting with Sonic Adventure 2 and onward, the player can earn points from executing tricks and Trick Actions in certain areas and after jumping off certain gimmicks, like rails or ramps. The highest score class and thus points here is 1000 points.
Objects: Destroying objects like wooden boxes adds 20 points to the score per destroyed object.
Emerald Shards: Depending on how fast the player locates and collects the objective items (Emerald Shards, Chaos Emeralds and gate keys), the score class and thus the number of points granted, when they find it will be higher (although it will decrease by one stage per used Hint Box). The points earned from collecting the first objective item is based on the stage's elapsed time, then for all subsequent items, the score is based on the time taken to collect the current item after the previous item. The highest possible score is 2000 points which requires the objective item to be collected within one minute without using Hint Boxes. In addition to this score, a base score of 500 for collecting the objective is also added.
Lock-on: Depending on how many enemies and targets the player locks onto at once, the amount of points they will be given will increase accordingly once the targets are all destroyed. The maximum point award is 2000 points at eleven lock-ons and above.
Enemies: Defeating enemies gives varying points based on enemy type with one notable one being the Gold Beetle of which there is one per level giving 1000 points. Depending on the number of enemies defeated in a chain, the player is also awarded with different amounts of points, each with a different classification.
Time Bonus: 10,000 points if the stage is completed in less than 1:00. Otherwise max(0, 10000 - 20 x N), where N equals each second that passes after reaching 1:00. Therefore, the time bonus becomes 0 once 560 seconds or 9 minutes and 20 seconds have elapsed in the stage.

For example; three enemies give 600 points, four enemies give 1100 points, five or more enemies give 1600 points, though it is not consistent. As in a section of Sonic's Aquatic Base, three robots can give 1600 points after activating a Cylinder, activating another one near another three robots gives 2800, then 4400, and finally 7400 with a "Radical" word, after destroying a total of twelve robots in a group of three simultaneously.

Stage Results Screen

Time Bonus: Every Stage and Boss starts with a "Base Clear Score", then for every second that passes a "Deduction score" is deducted until the time bonus reaches 0 Points. When the player clears a Stage, the game calculates the Time Score as follows: Time Score = Base Clear Score - [Deduction Score x Stage Clear Time (in seconds)]. Both the "Base Clear Score" and the "Deduction Score" vary by Stage and Boss. The Deduction Score is 40 for every main stage and 80 for all Bosses.
Stage clear points: Depending on the points collected and computed in the total score at the end of each stage, the player is given a Rank. Based on that Rank, the player is awarded with a specific amount of Rings they can use to buy upgrades from the Shop.

Miscellaneous

Rainbow Ring: Going through a Rainbow Ring awards the Player with 1,000 points. Previously used Rainbow Rings will not award points again, and Dash Rings give no points at all.
Action Chain: In Daytime stages if the player destroys enemies in succession, each enemy after the first gives 300 extra points.
Real-Time Interactions bonus: When jumping off of blue springs, Trick Jump Panels, or encountering Tornado Defense's robot troops, Real-Time Interactions are activated. Depending on their performance, the player will be awarded with a different quantity of points.

Stage Results Screen

Time Bonus: Every Act starts with a "Base Clear Score", then for every 0.01 seconds that passes a "Deduction score" is deducted until the time bonus reaches 0 Points. When the player clears an Act, the game calculates the Time Score as follows: Time Score = Base Clear Score - [Deduction Score x Stage Clear Time (in 0.01 seconds)]. Both the "Base Clear Score" and the "Deduction Score" vary by Stage, Act and Boss.

Ring Bonus: While Rings do not compute on the player's score, they are calculated on the result, where every Ring is worth 100 points.
Enemy Score: In Daytime stages this is part of the Score shown on screen, together with the Trick Score, while in Nighttime stages this is the only type of score that is shown on screen. This bonus depends on the defeated enemies in a stage.
Speed Bonus: Only in Daytime stages. Every time Sonic crosses a checkpoint an SPD value is shown measuring Sonic's speed. Each checkpoint determines the points this gives differently. At the Result Screen all these points together form the Speed Bonus. If Sonic loses a life the total SPD points are reset to 0.
Trick Score: Only in Daytime stages. This Score is part of the score shown on screen, together with the Enemy Score. This score includes Points given from Rainbow Rings and Real-Time Interactions.
Combo Bonus: Only in Nighttime stages. Combos are activated and maintained through attacking enemies with Skills. When building a combo, a counter for the current number of hits accumulated named the "Combo Counter" appears on the right side of the screen. Depending on the amount of Hits at the end of a Combo different amounts of Points are given.

"No Miss" Bonus: This bonus is awarded based on the number of times the player loses a try when clearing a stage. It decreases each time the player loses a try and drops to zero if the player loses five tries. The "No Miss" bonus points available changes with the length of the stage:^[16]

x		Stage length
x		Very short	Short	Medium	Long	Boss
Lost tries	0	150,000	280,000	450,000	650,000	1,000,000

	5	0

Time Score: There exists a score named the "Base Clear Score" for each Act which the game deducts a specific number of points (dubbed the "Deduction Score") per second from until the Act is cleared. When the player clears an Act, the game calculates the Time Score as follows: Time Score = Base Clear Score - [Deduction Score x Stage Clear Time (in seconds)]. Both the "Base Clear Score" and the "Deduction Score" changes according to the length category of the stage.^[16] If the Time Score hits 0 at any point during the level, the score will be indefinitely locked and more points cannot be earned under any means, lowering the chance that the player will get an S-Rank. When this happens, a red text will appear under the score, reading "Time Over" and will persist until the level is restarted or exited. Losing a life will not remove this effect, but will still reset the score back to 0.

Trivia

Although the Xbox Live Demo of Sonic the Hedgehog (2006) gives points for using the Light Dash, this was not carried over to the final version.
- Additionally, there is an unused sprite found inside the files of the final game that contain words for multiple set of points meant to be given to the player, along with scrapped ones, indicating the game was going to have a bonus points system similar to that of Sonic Adventure 2.

Notes

↑ Even though this Secret Bonus' icon states it gives 100 points, its real value is only 10 points each. The other Secret Bonus icons with 1000 and 10000 points each are accurate. This issue was fixed in the 2013 remaster.
↑ ^2.0 ^2.1 Monitors that are in the Special Stages do not count for this Special Bonus.
↑ If the player manages to make a Bonus Panel display an image of Tails, the Time Bonuses points will increase by 20,000.
↑ ^4.0 ^4.1 When coming in contact with the group of Drop Targets, hitting the third and any other Drop Target on the group afterwards for the third time grants 500 points.
↑ The Super Ring Monitors can only award points to the player when they are very individual and not in a group.
↑ Although the Iwamodokis award 100 points to the player when they self-destruct, these points are not added to the score. This was fixed in Sonic Origins.
↑ ^7.0 ^7.1 This is calculated by taking 10,000 points and subtracting 100 times the time needed to complete the Act, rounded down to the nearest 10 seconds. This means a Time of 0:59 gives 10,000 - 100 x 5 = 9,500 points, and a Time of 1:00 gives 10,000 - 100 x 10 = 9,000 points.
↑ Time resets to 0:00 when entering a Special Stage.
When reaching the section where the camera focuses on the goal, time stops. For example, if the player reaches that section at the 0:50 mark, then time will stop at that mark, meaning the player will always get 5,000 points no matter how much time passes.
↑ A Stage is started with a Time Bonus of 5000 from which 10 is subtracted every second until reaching 0. If a Stage is finished in under 1 minute the full 5000 are given anyway.
Action Stages with E-102 Gamma have a timer counting down. Time Bonus is calculated based on remaining time after the player passes through the Action Stage. Big the Cat does not receive Time Bonuses in his Action Stages.
↑ In this Sub Game, destroying an enemy within one second of destroying the previous one multiplies the score up to 10x.
↑ The score multiplies as the player passes through multiple gates constantly.
↑ Egg Rocket Zone has a reversed calculating timer that is set to a five minute mark. This time limit appears three times in the Zone and will reset two times during the progression of the Zone. Despite this, the total time needed to beat the Zone is used for the Time Bonus, but with 3 minutes added to the usual Time requirements.
↑ The timer subtracts 80 points for every second used, from 1 minute and 31 seconds until 10 minutes and 25 seconds. However, if the player completes the stage in 1:30 or less, the player is awarded 50000 points.
↑ If a Stage is completed in over 10:25, no Time Bonus is awarded.
↑ Tails' Wave Ocean is an exception to this rule. Although the results screen tells the player that they need 50,000 points for get an S-rank, in that level, S-rank requires 55,000 points.
↑ ^16.00 ^16.01 ^16.02 ^16.03 ^16.04 ^16.05 ^16.06 ^16.07 ^16.08 ^16.09 ^16.10 ^16.11 ^16.12 As the player builds up a Combo, the point multiplier will increase by one (x2, x3, and so on up to x9). Taking damage or missing a shot will reset the Combo.
↑ Slicers can activate self-destruction after they perform their attack pattern once. The player does not receive points if the Badnik does this.
↑ Badniks that get crushed by rolling snowballs in White Park Zone do not grant points.
↑ The time spent in the action stage beforehand is not counted.
↑ Recollected Rings also give 100 points.
↑ However, getting an Eggman bomb from the Combi Catcher afterwards will reset the total score back to zero.
