    Older Kirby’s were part of the older “score attack” generation of games. Holdovers from their arcade roots.

    That’s just the score you got during the game. Super Smash Brothers has the same mechanic, literally.

    Newer Kirby games dont focus on score anymore.

      Sounds like the score mechanic in the first Megaman game. Felt very arbitrary and definitely not the point of the game

      Seems like the older ones also don’t, since this one only shows the score at the ending.
