What is Credit Feeding?
1.
The act of repeatedly continuing in a game (usually a 2D shooter where the player's ship or character respawns in place) for the sole purpose of beating it. Very unprofessional way of being the game as opposed to learning and memorizing the levels, and often comes with the penalty of having one's score reset to 0 every time he or she continues.
Joe credit-fed his way to the end of Giga Wing and called it an accomplishment, only for his friend, a seasoned gamer, to slap him in the face.
