Objects

Airborne Hovercraft

Bomb

A bomb is an explosive device.
Crystal

Crystals come in many varieties, although typically they're somehow magical in games. Especially central to the Final Fantasy franchise.
Flamethrower

A popular weapon that is used in many shooters. The flamethrower is considered one of the most unique ways to defeat a foe.
Homing Missile

A homing missile is a missile that locks on to and follows its target. Homing missiles are featured in lots of games, from old school to new school.
Laser

A laser is a focused beam of light, invisible through the air without some other medium (such as smoke) to illuminate it. Lasers are often used in video games as part of a targeting system, or as an offensive weapon in their own right.
Missile

An explosive ordinance propelled by a rocket engine designed to blow an object to smithereens. A missile is often guided, in some way, to its target. For example; by laser, remote control, or computer/GPS.
Mushroom

Mushroom is the familiar term used to describe a gilled fungus which may or may not bear a stem. Mushrooms are the "fruit" of spore bearing fungi.
Proximity Mines

Proximity mines are passive anti-personnel devices, often used as traps or ambushes, that detonate upon detecting the presence of a target.
Rocket

An explosive ordinance propelled by a chemical reaction that causes a controlled explosion resulting in thrust. Rockets are usually "dumb" weapons, meaning that they are not guided.
Shuriken

A throwing weapon used by ninja. They come in varying shapes and sizes, but generally aren't used for the purpose of eliminating the target, rather for distracting said target.
Spread Gun

Pick up this useful powerup and spread your fire across a large portion of the screen in a wide arc!
