What's the perfect score?

[Thurmond]

What's the perfect score in Dirk Dashing? Has anyone found 100% of everything on every level, or even some of the levels?

I got 100% on level 1 today: my score was 12600, and I picked up 40 apples.

That's a good question! I never added it up before. I'll have to do that, and let you know!

Okay, I've played through the game and racked up all the points there are to be had. The perfect score in this game is 4,354,200 points, and assuming you pick up all the individual apples and bags of apples and you aren't killed even once through the whole game, you should end up with 46 extra lives.

Here is the breakdown by chapter, assuming you play the chapters in order as I did:

1-1: 12600
1-2: 68300
1-3: 153400
1-4: 245300
1-5: 345300
1-X: 365500
------------
2-1: 409300
2-2: 435900
2-3: 560200
2-4: 664300
2-5: 771400
2-X: 1144900
-------------
3-1: 1201100
3-2: 1363000
3-3: 1501400
3-4: 1701700
3-5: 1959300
3-6: 2261400
-------------
4-1: 2504000
4-2: 2672600
4-3: 2921000
4-4: 3040700
4-5: 3191900
4-6: 3404500

5-1: 3593700
5-2: 3711400
5-3: 3865900
5-4: 4090900
5-5: 4180700
5-X: 4354200

Hope that satisfies your curiosity!

Wow, 2-X has a ton of points! Look at how that score jumps!
Guess it really pays to find the secret levels (or at least that one).

[Thurmond]

Thanks for not only answering my question but giving a detailed breakdown. Superb as always, Troy! Now I have a goal to shoot for on each level when I miss stuff. Thanks!

I don't know if there was another minor change to level 1-4, but after finishing it my score is 247 000

Thanks for the update, Stormi!
