While you're not holding down the shoot button you will receive a constant flow of points, which are multiplied by the point multiplier.To build the point multiplier you kill enemies and scrape enemy bullets.
The point multiplier has no cap but is reset when you die.
The point multiplier will drain by 1/3 and reset the timer if you are hit.
The point multiplier will start draining if it has been 1.5 seconds since the last time you built it up.
You can collect BONUSES at various points in a level. These bonuses will award 750 points, times your current score multiplier.
While you are using your super you will stop receiving flow points however you can continue to build your multiplier.
A large portion of scoring includes end of level bonuses. You get a bonus for:
