Scoring in Rudi Foodi is delightfully simple: every treat Rudi (or one of his clones) collects adds 1 to the current score. When the score reaches the level’s treat goal, the game advances to the next level, the score resets to zero, and a fresh set of treats and power-ups is scattered across the new world. There are 20 levels in total, each with a unique theme and name — from the Clean Bedroom to the Final Dog Park. Clearing all 20 in one sitting records your total run time on the leaderboard.
Treat Goals
The treat goal for each level is calculated from:
const levelGoal = Math.min(75, 15 + currentLevel * 5);
| Level | Treat Goal |
|---|
| 1 | 20 |
| 2 | 25 |
| 3 | 30 |
| 4 | 35 |
| 5 | 40 |
| 6 | 45 |
| 7 | 50 |
| 8 | 55 |
| 9 | 60 |
| 10 | 65 |
| 11 | 70 |
| 12 | 75 |
| 13 – 20 | 75 |
The treat goal never exceeds 75, but the number of treats on the map does keep growing (see below). This means later levels actually have a higher treat density relative to the goal, making collection a little easier even as the map gets more chaotic.
Treat Count per Level
The total number of treats spawned each level follows:
const treatCount = Math.min(90, 32 + level * 5);
| Level | Treats on Map |
|---|
| 1 | 37 |
| 2 | 42 |
| 5 | 57 |
| 10 | 82 |
| 11 | 87 |
| 12 – 20 | 90 (cap) |
THREE.ConeGeometry) placed at a random position via randomPos(620) at height 1.05 units. When Rudi or a clone comes within 3.1 units of a treat, collectTreat() fires — the treat is teleported to a new random position rather than removed, so the count on the map stays constant.
Speed Scaling
Starting from level 4, each time you advance a level the base speedMultiplier is permanently increased:
if (currentLevel >= 4) speedMultiplier += 0.25;
speedMultiplier = 1 + speedStacks * 1.5;
Collecting a blue power-up overwrites the formula-based speedMultiplier entirely. This means if you have accumulated level-scaling speed and you then collect a blue orb, the level bonus is absorbed into the stacks formula. Collecting stacks early maximises their long-term effect.
Blue speed stacks are the best long-term investment in the game. A single stack sets speedMultiplier to 2.5 (from 1 + 1 × 1.5). Two stacks give 4.0. They persist across all 20 levels and can only be reset by double-tapping the Zoom stacks HUD button.
Bonus Mechanics During Progression
Two special milestone events trigger automatically when the within-level score threshold is crossed. The score variable resets to zero on every level-up, so these thresholds apply to treats collected within the current level — not cumulatively across the whole run. Once a mode activates it stays on for the remainder of the run and is only cleared by resetGameToMenu().
| Within-Level Score | Event |
|---|
| 10 treats collected this level | Rudi Spin Mode activates — Rudi rotates continuously on the Z-axis |
| 20 treats collected this level | Rudi Dance Mode activates — Rudi’s head bobs in a sine wave |
| Advancing to level 10 or beyond | A clone is automatically spawned on each level-up |
Completion Time and the Leaderboard
When you complete all 20 levels and the Fly-Away ending fires with completedGame = true, the game measures:
const completedTime = performance.now() - gameStartTime;
gameStartTime is set to performance.now() the moment you press PLAY. The elapsed milliseconds are formatted as M:SS (e.g., 12:34) and displayed as “Your time” in the name-entry prompt.
After entering a unique username, the score is saved — either to a Firebase Firestore global leaderboard (if configured) or to localStorage under the key rudiFoodiLeaderboardV1 as a fallback. The leaderboard displays the top 20 entries ordered by fastest time.
