Statistics

The game counts attempts, deaths, hits and time for each level and for the whole device. Everything is stored locally in the stats folder. A record is kept separately for each set of run conditions

Two files

The files are JSON, times are in UTC. Nothing is sent anywhere

The stats folder sits next to levels in the game folder, Installation. It is never inside a level. So a level sent to a friend does not arrive already cleared. And your progress survives deleting the level and importing it again

The "Profile" tab

Settings → Profile shows the device's shared file:

Time is counted in real seconds, not in level time. Slow motion at a checkpoint and a run at half speed count for as long as they actually lasted

The device rows show which device steered the avatar during play. A device that is merely connected does not count

Per level

A level's file holds:

• when you first and last played it
• the real time spent in the level and the number of sessions
• attempts (every restart is a new one), clears, deaths, hits, dashes
• returns to a checkpoint and abandoned runs
• the furthest point reached and the first clear
• where in the level you die: by share of the length and by checkpoint

Records

A record is kept per run conditions: lives, speed, checkpoints on or off, collision on or off, and the bot. Speed counts to the hundredths, exactly as on screen

Zen (0 lives) still counts hits: every collision goes into its numbers, only lives and the end of the run are spared

A run beats the record with the same conditions if, in this order:

1. it got further
2. it took fewer hits
3. it ended with more lives
4. it used fewer dashes

A record also stores the run's seed and the level's version at that moment. The version is not part of the conditions. So a record set before the level was reworked stays visible, with the version shown beside it

A run from the editor counts, but sets no records. It adds to attempts, deaths and hits. It gives no record, best progress or first clear, because the level existed only in memory

Writing, deleting, freezing

The game writes statistics every 30 seconds. And immediately at the end of a run, on a screen change and on exit. A crash costs at most 30 seconds of data

• Delete: Settings → Other → Storage. There you find Statistics of levels that no longer exist and All statistics, your device profile included
• Delete with the level: deleting a level offers Also delete statistics
• Freeze: anonymous mode stops all writing until the game is closed, Settings
• Carry to another device: export the profile and import it there. A merge keeps the larger value of each counter, Profile transfer
