게임을 실제 이용하는 게임 플레이어와 게임을 이용한다는 의미에서의 게임 플레이는 그 동안 컴퓨터 게임을 개발하는 과정에서 중요하게 고려되어온 컴퓨터 게임의 요소들이다. 하지만 현재 게임 플레이어와 게임 플레이에 대한 학문적 의미와 게임 시스템 구축을 위한 개념 모델은 어떻게 되는가를 질문 했을 때, 많은 사람들이 다양한 관점에서 대답을 하고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 기존의 게임 플레이어와 게임 플레이에 대한 개념들을 학문적으로 재조명하고, 컴퓨터 게임 시스템 구현에서 참조할 수 있는 개념 모델을 제안하였다. 먼저 본 논문에서는 게임 플레이어란 게임 시스템이 제공하는 각 종 정보를 처리하는 정보 시스템 관점에서 재해석할 수 있으며, 따라서 정보처리시스템에서 제안한 지각시스템, 인지시스템, 운동시스템을 바탕으로 게임 플레이어에 대한 개념 모델을 제안하였다. 한편 게임 플레이에 대해서는 상호작용과 문제해결과정이라는 이론을 바탕으로 게임 플레이에 대한 학문적 의미를 재조명하였고, 이를 바탕으로 개념 모델을 제안하였다. 본 논문의 결과는 차후에 진행될 컴퓨터 게임에 대한 학문적 연구의 기본 개념을 제공해 줄 수 있을 것이다.

The purpose of this study is how to occur the temporality in Digital Gameplay. There is two types of time in Gameplay. One is Irreversibility time that goes passed through a game world like a chronology order. Another is Reversibility time that returns and renews the time. The time's duality is caused by player's intervene and experience. And the polychronic temporality in gameplay makes the rhythm as replay and eternal cyclic time.

The objective of this research is to discover the rule of gameplay related to the task interdependence to analyse the behavior pattern of social gameplay. Previous literatures related to the gameplay were reviewed and game which was suitable for the gameplay of the task interdependence was selected. A party-play includes a team of five people in the experiment during the gameplay with think-aloud method and video/audio data about action protocol and verbal report were collected. The video observation and protocol analysis were conducted to analyse data. The objective coding scheme were developed from consolidated sequence model task analysis. The player's behavior was analysed. The result was revealed that four rules and four modified rules were included into the total eight behavior pattern. A behavior graph integrated with five gameplay was written. The excellent cooperative spot and error and failure place could be identified. The social gameplay behavior graph is expected to be the key practical design guideline on whether the level design and balance design are proper.

This study looks at the social implications of gaming disorder by considering the situation in Korea. Focusing on specificity of game genres, this study analyzed two aspects of the game playing effect-positive(cognitive needs) and negative(game addiction)-and suggested directions for game regulation policies and game addiction studies, since game playing effects are closely related to game regulatory policy. To analyze game effects and attitudes to regulations, this study performed regression analysis based on the online survey. Results show that game playing effects and attitudes toward game regulation differ based on the nature of game genres. While longer gaming increased the effect of addiction, it also increased cognitive needs. Playing roleplaying, Aeon of Strife, and strategy game genres(RAS), which are subject to game regulation, increased game addiction levels but simultaneously contributed to increased cognitive needs. While playing augmented reality genres positively affected cognitive needs, it also showed favorable attitudes to general game regulation.

This study aims at empiricallly designing method to increase player's play capability through determining of the relations of player's behavior pattern and emotion factors when having gameplay experiences in MMORPG. For modeling emotion factors on gameplay, Our preliminary studies are considered in the process of rule-based systems on cognitive science approach. These study estabilished game architecture process applied of player's cognitieve emotion reactions in specific situation of role playing games that have most noticeable interaction with players based on quest system. This approach is expected to extend instant responses, which can be controlled behind all of anti-main behavior pattern and main behavior pattern in game playing. Therefore, such study is meaningful that is proposed the analysis framework of player's emotion factors to design game playing capability in game interactions.

Unlike Online Games, Video Games do not require Internet connection. Video Game players have their own game device to play games offline. Yet there are popular online communities based on Video Games that has lots of active, loyal members. The presence of Video Game online community indicates that online community plays an important role in "Game Play" of Video Games. In this research, in order to analyze the impact of online community, Game Play Heuristics were studied. Also, the use and the purpose of Video Game online communities was investigated. Finally, examples of the impact of online community on "Game Play"of Video Games is presented.

In aspect of HCI(Human Computer Interaction) gameplay is the procedure to solve the problem that gamers encounter in order to generate or discover a new rule to achieve gamers' goal. The goal of this research is to investigate the structure and understand the gameplay in aspect of affordance from ecological psychology rather than the traditional problem solving theory. This research selects 'World of Warcraft' as MMORPG(Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game). Five expert gamers participated in this experiment. We record all gameplay using audio and video device. We conducted protocol analysis as qualitative method based on the verbal report and action protocol during game playing. As result, gameplay based on affordance includes selection and relation. We found that subjects selected one thing at once with attention. Moreover, we found that there were two behaviors : exploratory action and performatory action. We believe that learning, utilization, and transformation for affordance appear. The result of this research imply to suggest design guideline for game design methodology when designers develop game.

The purpose of this study is to analyze visual environmental elements of game space by play-event in adventure games. We extracted common six types of play-event through exploring ten representative adventure games and organized three types of space structure and four types of object as the criteria of analysis. Based on the criteria, we embodied the characteristics of visual environmental elements by performing direct playing and monitoring. As a result, we verified that the story intended and the gameplay induced by the play-event are closely related to visual environmental elements.

멀티플레이 게임을 개발하기 위해서는 게임 서버의 구축이 필수 요소이며, 이러한 멀티 플레이 게임은 데이터 송수신이 빨라야 하므로 두 디바이스 간의 직접적인 통신을 위한 홀 펀칭, 릴레이 서버와 같은 기술이 요구된다. 그러나 멀티플레이 게임의 구현을 위해서는 일반적인 서버보다 경제적, 시간적인 자원이 더 많이 소요되기 때문에 대규모 개발 조직과 달리 소규모 개발자들은 어려움을 겪는다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 본 연구에서는 멀티 플레이 게임 서버를 자체 제작하고 이를 이용할 수 있는 Unity Asset 형태의 컴포넌트를 개발하여 개발자들이 싱글 플레이 게임을 멀티플레이 게임으로 쉽게 바꿀 수 있도록 하였다.
