An object that instantly kills all enemies / destroys everything on the screen. Example: The Serious Bomb from the Serious Sam games.
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.
