A point within the game whereby the game saves its current state whether it be for the purpose of a more convenient respawn point or a gameplay design (such as in racing).
The floppy disk is a symbol for saving data that originated back when floppies were still the dominant format for computer games, but has persisted long after the technology became obsolete.
The interactive loading screen has thankfully relieved some of the boredom that comes with long load times through entertaining us with small minigames. These generally involve simply moving objects around on screen usually with some relevance to the game itself.
Loading Screens are specific screens that are displayed while a game is loading resources so that the player has something to distract them while the game loads. Loading Screens can be images, text or even mini-games - and sometimes a combination of all three.
Games that allow save file data to be transferred from one save slot to another.
Special locations in game that allow the player to manually save their progress.
