본 논문에서는 신체기관에 대한 거부감을 귀여운 스프라이트를 사용하여 거부감을 완화 시키고 플랫폼을 모바일로 사용해 언제 어디서나 쉽게 플레이 할 수 있는 게임을 개발한다. 신체 감염을 소재로 한 제안 게임은 신체를 보호하는 위주의 게임에 반대적인 신체를 감염시키는 흥미로운 느끼게 하는 게임으로 신체기관이 대해 거부감을 느낄 수 있는 요소를 귀엽고 심플한 리소스를 사용하여 거부감을 덜게 하였고 플랫폼을 모바일로 하여 장소에 상관없이 간단한 조작으로 플레이 할 수 있는 장점을 가진다.

A great many researches on affordance in HCI(Human Computer Interaction), product design, and cognitive science has been done investigated currently. In addition, the concept of affordances has been applied to games in the incremental trying to understand the relationship between gamers and systems. However, there are some problems to apply them to games because many researchers take ease to use, consistency, and usefulness to handle mainly in HCI rather than the property of the game into account. Consequently, the objective of the study is to investigate affordances in consideration of the features of the game, such as fantasy, variety, and fun based on the concept of them suggested in ecological psychology. A protocol analysis was conducted through the think-aloud method on the full gameplay session to platform action game as the basic genre of many game. The result of this research reveals that a static and movable affordances as a fixed state are discovered and transforming continously, appearing, and disappearing affordances as variable states are uncovered, and physical and cognitive affordances are observed. The result of this research is expected to propose the essential design guideline on the methodology of game design.

The purpose of this research is to analyze players' emotion pattern for conducting a quest in Role Playing Game(RPG). We have rebuilt up the action and content of gameplay related to category to set up five action classes of game players based on the literature review about the human behavior classification. Moreover, Mabinogi game includes the composition of various quests by story-centered expanse. We classified the quest structure of the tutorial mode, initial state, of its game into the cognitive action. We build the model of the correlation between cognitive behavior patterns of gameplay and emotions derived from targeting ten novices. The result of this research reveals that gameplayers' stimulus levels are identified to emotion pattern. It is enable to grope to concrete the design of the quest and the level in a specified state. Moreover, players' emotion variation is indicated to the type of expression of fun elements. We expect to use a device to induce the curiousness and the challenge for conducting the higher goal of game in the whole.

OlineGame Player suffers very big impact in environment of game World. Therefore, physical environment that is embodied to Gameworld is truth and immersion important element that experience to Player. Also, Game-System that embodied physical environment influences in Game Play can give more game player truth and immersion. I mainly MMORPG that is serviced present in this study investigated. 'What earth habitat factor was embodied and What influence does embodied earth habit at factor exert on game play'. I searched what problem is to design game system that do earth environment simulation. And I asserted development of environment information system to approach game system that do earth environment simulation by easier method. Environment information system is system that process status information of stand-by status, wind, wind speed, topography etc.. of game World.

The mobile game industry has become the one of the fastest growing industries with its astonishing market size. Despite its industrial importance, a few studies empirically considered actual purchasing behavior in mobile games rather than the intention to purchase. Therefore, this paper investigates the key drivers of in-app purchase by analyzing the game-log dataset provided from a mobile game company in Korea. Specifically, the effects of goal-directed, habitual and social-interacted playing behavior are analyzed on in-app purchase. Furthermore, the recursive relationship with playing and purchasing behaviorsis also considered. The result shows that all suggested factors have positive impacts on in-app purchase in the current period. In addition, the effect of previous habitual playing has a positive impact, but the effect of social-interacted playing and in-app purchase in the previous period have negative impacts on in-app purchase of the current period. These findings can improve our understanding of the impact of game playing on in-app purchase in mobile games, and provide meaningful insights for researchers and practitioners.

Gameplay exists not only in game activities, but also in other art forms. An animated film with strong gameplay whose gameplay narrative follows the presupposition principle, achieved through unimaginable sound effects, exaggerated visual styling, hypothetical time and space concepts, fictional storylines and character performances. The strength or the presence or absence of gameplay in animated films is reflected in the grasp and use of these gameplay elements in the process of animated film narratives. The gameplay narrative of animated films fully utilizes the characteristics of gameplay thinking. In the process of scriptwriting and narrative, it combines entertainment, action, adventure, competition and other elements to fully reflect the characteristics of "gameplay". Gameplay narratives often use the strategies of reverse setting, repetition and interaction, and rules and challenges setting, which not only enhances the fun of animated film narratives, but also attracts the attention of the audience, which then can enhance the audience's viewing experience.

온라인 게임의 한 분야인 MMORPG 는 하나의 가상 공간에서 많은 캐릭터들이 자신의 역할을 수행하면서 게임을 즐기는 장르다. 많은 캐릭터들이 동시에 이동을 하거나 캐릭터가 대량으로 밀집된 지역으로 새로운 캐릭터가 이동해 올 경우에 생기는 부하가 클라이언트의 게임 프레임에 영향을 준다. 본 논문에서는 다른 지역으로 이동하면서 생기는 많은 데이터들을 미리 예측 로딩하여 지역과 지역간의 이동 시 소요되는 데이터 로딩에 따른 부하를 감소시켜 안정적인 온라인게임 플레이 환경을 유지시키는 방안을 제시한다

한국, 중국, 일본 3개 국가 30개 모바일 게임을 대상으로 초반 로그인 플로우를 조사하고 특징을 분석하였다. 그 결과, 한중일 3국의 차별별적인 UX디자인 전략을 확인할 수 있었다. 중국의 게임들은 한중일 중 최초 로그인에 소요되는 시간이 가장 짧고 약관동의 등 사용자가 불필요하게 느끼는 절차는 로그인이 완료된 다음 후순위로 둔 것으로 확인할 수 있었다. 일본의 경우 아이디/비번 입력으로 대표되는 로그인 개념 자체를 없애고, 유저가 원할 경우에만 데이터 백업을 할 수 있는 장치를 후반에 마련해둔 뒤, 최대한 빠르게 게임 플레이를 경험 할 수 있게 설계한 게임들이 많았다.

Game studies of theatrical approach explained interactive property of game in humanistic background. Those studies analyze the game, and based on Aristoteles Poetic Attribute. But theatrical approach has a problem by user's unpredictable intervention in narrative (Active narrative). This paper intended to see in the glance of any impact on the Aristotelian model by active narrative. As a result of the active narrative remake the causality between materials of drama. Also, it can be seen to define a kind of the "Improvisation" in theatrical view. But it exposed a essential difference in the form an expression by substance and material of media. It was defined forms of improvisation in the gaming environment which are 'Self-generated Individuality', 'Self-definition Faction', 'Eccentric Behavior Contending', 'Trolling' and 'Bug Play'. Finally this paper proposes the characteristics of the improvisation of the game and the direction to be improved game analysis model in humanities through forms of improvisation in game environment.

From the era of feature phone to the current smart phone which bloomed Social Network Games(SNGs), mobile games have held the top position as killer contents of mobile market. Mobile game has many constraints such as specification of device, network status, and external environment. Based on common perspective of game research, these factors have negative influences on flow of user. Even with these opinions, most mobile gamers have felt satisfaction. To explain this phenomenon, our research focuses on the constraints. Referring to theoretical concepts, we attempt to clarify the relationship between game features and flow through survey methodology. Our finding shows that the constraints have a positive effect on flow even though it disaccords with previous studies. Therefore, we argue that users of mobile game have sense of satisfaction not a cognitive overload as discomforts.
