GunLord/Scoring & Speedrunning

Scoring
Unfortunately, scoring in this game is not really interesting for 3 reasons:
 * there is no real scoring system, the only way to get points is to defeat enemies;
 * the small insects generated by the red flying mid bosses can be milked indefinitely (100 points each);
 * the score is limited to 655.350 points (probably due to the variable stored on 2 octets).

Speedrunning
GunLord is really fun to speedrun actually. It's dynamic and there are some interesting techniques and skips. Of course the use of cheat codes is forbidden. The in-game timer is used to time the runs.

Basic Knowledge
 * the Wheel is the fastest way to move, use it as much as possible;
 * kill as few enemies as possible, you can use the Wheel to pass through them;
 * use Super Waves wisely to clean the screen of shots/enemies/blocks quickly;
 * use every skips/death warps/glitches that save time.
