Scoring Systems [SHMUP WORKSHOP 06]

The vid is a bit term-heavy so when in doubt, check this : https://shmups.wiki/library/Help:Glossary A video series explaining how to design a shoot 'em up from the ground up. Even though it focuses on CAVE-style games, most things should be transferable to just about any style. The goal is to give a rundown of genre conventions, if you want to make something non-conventional then this can be used as a jumping off point, a "know which rules you're breaking and why they're there" type of deal. This one's about scoring system design, my goal is to provide some tools of analysis & examples to help understand scoring systems in these games. Though honestly it might be more useful for developers adding scoring systems in non-shmups, so they don't just throw in a basic chaining combo system and call it a day.
