score

From YoYoGames Wiki

Description

(real): the score a player has achieved in the game

• Read-write
• Scope: Global

Explanation

This is a built in variable that holds the score for your game, there is no need to declare it.

Example

This will add 5 to the number already in the score variable. So if score was 10, score would now be 15:

 score += 5; 

This will set the score to 5.

 score = 5; 

Remarks

Note that internally score is stored as 4-byte integer with range -2147483648 to 2147483647. However setting it to value like 3000000000 just makes it negative due to integer overflow.
