Sometimes one playable character just isn't enough.
When light in a game is being emitted from nowhere.
A place to fall, often bottomless, usually resulting in death.
Pixel art refers to digital images composed of visible pixels, drawn with individual pixel-level intent and precision.
Referencing a TV show, celebrity, song, trend, historical event, etc. is one of the easiest ways to get a laugh. This can be either a throw-away gag, like the name of an achievement, or the main subject of the game.
Ranking Systems tally the player's current progress and relative skill, by tracking raw numbers of multiple statistics (like score and time) during a session of gameplay. This results in a competitive meta-game where the goal is usually to reach the top position.

When a normal jump isn't enough and when a double jump just wont cut it, there is the triple jump. Just like a normal jump and a double jump, with the extra third jump in the end. Few games utilize this, and the more common double jump is often instead.
Video games contain a lot of activities for players to do underwater, from exploration to combat. Sometimes games treat water as simple low gravity movement, while other games treat underwater more realistically.
Weapons can often be upgraded with new attachments, augmentations, or magical enchantments. These upgrades result in the original item being more powerful than originally intended.
A fanfare played at the end of a battle in which the player is victorious.
A level that takes place either in or near water.
