I wanted to compare the result screens of all major rhythm games to study their design choices.
Please note that the details added above each screenshot are not meant to be my analysis. They are here to add more information about the result screen that can not be conveyed by just a screenshot.
Terminology:
"FAILED", "CLEARED" or "FULL COMBO" is additionally written shortly in the middle of the screen when the result screen appears.
In the case of a fullcombo, an animation is displayed on the gameplay screen when the last note is hit.
The artwork displayed in the background depends on the grade achieved. Higher grade means more epic and colorful artwork.
"FAILED" or "CLEARED" is written during the transition between the gameplay and result screens.
The announcer also speaks "stage cleared" during the transition when the song was cleared.
In the case of a fullcombo, an animation is displayed on the gameplay screen when the last note is hit.
In the case of a fullcombo, a circle is showed next to the grade. Its color represent the lowest judge achieved. Here the player on the left did some GREATs but no GOODs, so the circle takes the color of the GREAT judge, green. The player on the right did better and got no GREATs, so its circle is the color of the PERFECT judge.
"Stage failed", "Stage cleared", "FULL COMBO!!" or "PERFECT" is additionally written shortly in the middle of the screen when the result screen appears.
