Scoring

While there is a major scoring bug, the scoring system revolves around picking up bonus items with the right timing. These are found in spades throughout the game via destructible scenery and defeated enemies. The items go through several slot machine bonuses each awarding a different value, following a cycle of Plum->Bell->Watermelon->Cherry->Bar->7. This cycle then goes in reverse and starts over. Each bonus lasts for 8 frames.
