Summary
Short summary describing this company.

Concepts

Single Word Titles
7
Games whose titles consist of a single word.
2D
7
Sure, these days have almost every game sporting the newfangled 3D, but way back when, everyone had to live with plain old 2D. 2D, or two dimensions, limit the game to scrolling backgrounds, but some games even now make use of this basic concept.
Male Protagonists
7
This concept is for games in which at least one of the main characters is male.
Jump
5
It's arguably the one move that symbolizes the medium to those outside it. The ability to jump, be it onto a building, a platform, or a skull, is one of the all time most important abilities ever put in a video game.
Lives
4
The concept of lives in video games evolved to let the player get a second chance after failing once. The most recognizable symbol is the heart.
Single-Screen Level
4
A level in which everything is displayed on-screen at once, with no scrolling, flip screen, or 3D movement. Many '80s games consist entirely of single-screen levels.
Game Over
3
Game Over originally appeared in pinball machines, and later, arcade machines. When players lose at a game, it is game over.
Spiders
2
An eight legged arachnid. Some make webs to catch prey and some are poisonous. None have made a web grand enough to be called a parlor, though.
CGA Graphics
2
Games that can be played with a CGA monitor and graphics card. CGA, Color Graphics Adapter was the first generation of color graphics for the IBM PC.
Damsel In Distress
2
The concept of a helpless female character in desperate need of rescuing by the protagonist, in most cases from a villain, or from a form of impending doom.
