Hey Flingers!
We’ve seen some confusion regarding the multipliers that we know we could have been better at explaining. This is something we need to work on for the next update, with better visualization of how the multipliers work.
To make it short:
All your multipliers are added. Your bird level, your hat multiplier and your slingshot multiplier. The real confusion is when we type out that something will give you a x1 multiplier, which anyone familiar with math knows would do very little to your score, when it in fact does!
A quick example:
You have a Red Bird at level 5.
It’s wearing a Street Cap (x2 Multiplier).
You don’t have any sets completed, so you have a wooden slingshot, no multiplier.
The sum of this would be 5 + 2 + 0, so its score would be x7.
A late game example:
You have a Red Bird at level 12.
It’s wearing a Cowboy Hat (x3).
You’ve completed 2 sets, so you have a Silver Slingshot, x2 Multiplier.
The sum of this would be 12 + 3 + 2, so its score would be x17.
I hope this will clear up any confusion!
Have fun getting those hats!
