Just figured I'd post this, although I have no definitive proof to back it up. I figured I'd try going through the game and getting the lowest score I could possibly get. I was wondering if maybe score had a direct correlation with the rarity of the items dropped. Usually when playing through the game my score has been pretty good, so what would happen if I made it to higher levels with a lousy score. I made one exception to the score - that if rare items did appear, I'd get them even if they were worth a lot of points. Here's what I figure:

I made it to level 86 with a score of less than 100,000 points. You know, it's actually hard to avoid the crystals sometimes, they just like to fall on your head. Anyway until about level 60 I really got nothing good to write home about. Then a little later there were some notable items, but nothing truly important (things like robots and that big pink flower worth 7777 points and an earthworm, etc.) In the end, I'm let to believe score had nothing to do with it. If anyone finds different results, please post them! In the end, I'd say go for the higher score because you'll net a few more extra lives out of the whole mess.

Hope this helps! Good luck everyone!
