Game Feast is a Xbox Live Arcade promotion of multiple games over the course of several weeks in the Fall.
The player is respawned (or has the option to respawn) immediately following death, and with minimal lost progress and little to no break in the action. This concept is often seen used in difficult or fast-paced games where frequent player death is treated as a learning experience.
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.
Pixel art refers to digital images composed of visible pixels, drawn with individual pixel-level intent and precision.
Any character you can control in a game is a Player Character (PC), as opposed to a non-player character (NPC), which is a character that can only be controlled by the game.
A lead character who never says a word, despite being spoken to.
Games whose main character is so egotistical that the whole game just HAS to be named after them.
Also known as a triangle jump, this is the ability to hit a wall and propel yourself off of it like you were some kind of crazy ninja or parkour fiend.
Used in Super Mario Bros. via the pipe system. Warp Zones became popularized on the NES/SNES.
