본 연구는 재미있고 건강한 삶을 추구하는 현대인들이 누구나 즐길 수 있고 재활운동까지 가능하도록 간단한 소도구 운동기구와 결합된 이용자 맞춤형 리듬게임 콘텐츠를 설계한 것이다. 본 시스템은 센서가 부착된 소도구 운동기구와의 인터랙티브를 통해 사용자의 건강상태를 점검할 수 있는 사용자 분석용 콘텐츠와 사용자 건강 상태별로 운동 목표 설정, 종류, 난이도 등의 선별 기능으로 운동 효과를 극대화 할 수 있게 설계되었다. 또한 콘텐츠에 따른 음악, 동작 등의 다양화, 플레이 결과에 따른 점수(확장형의 경우 N/W 에 의한 플레이어 상호간 경쟁유도) 등으로 이용자에게 몰입과 재미를 제공하도록 설계하였다.

The interaction property of digital media have changed traditional storytelling into a new concept, digital-storytelling, which has been widely accepted. Nowadays open-ended game storytelling, which different from story design of movie or animation, is chosen for the development of RPG. It can make infinite stories according to player character's decision. In this paper, we propose a game storytelling structure focused on the characters for RPG, and analyze how characters designed with various story-values interact with background stories and events in the cyber game world through case studies. This research is necessary to design predictable game mechanics and provide methods to control game play in case of special-purpose game.

To affect users' attitudes on social issues, some serious games use narrative which can be an effective tool to provoke users' emotions. In this paper, focus group interview on the experiences about playing was conducted to figure out if the parts of narratives containing educational goals can actually provoke certain emotions or not. From the interview, words having emotional meaning were extracted and matched with Korean Emotion Terms Database. Then the emotion terms were compared with Russell's schematic map of core affect and were categorized. The result showed that users mostly felt unpleasant emotions during the play. The unpleasant emotions helped to achieve the game's goal which is conveying the tragedy of war.

This research will apply the environmental characteristics of physical computing to game development, which has the concept of giving substantial materiality to digital media that do not exist in reality. The processing process of physical computing is digital input and digital output, and analog input and analog output, which mainly uses Malik controllers. Therefore, we select development elements by analyzing research cases in the field of digital art and information education where physical computing is studied a lot, and by analyzing games that borrowed some physical computing elements. The derived elements are verified by the Delphi's research methodology through agreement with experts. 12 elements are selected in this study, and the importance is shown in order of the physical properties in the virtual world, the suitability of the implementation technology, and the conformity between real and virtual players.

The game has several genres. Actions, RPGs, FPS, and simulations are diverse, and the game that flows around the story is a game genre that feels like watching a movie on the other. Internet game broadcasters can be thought of as playing a movie in a movie theater when they broadcast a story-type game. The difference with the movie theater is that you can get involved in the story by showing your play directly to viewers. As a broadcasting material, story-type games are a good means, but the fact that the story is published on the Internet in terms of game publishers can have a negative impact on sales revenue as viewers can enjoy the story without purchasing the game. The purpose of this study is to analyze the coordination status between producers and internet broadcasters for story-type games that could be copyrighted and suggest ways to move forward.

Recently people who enjoy social game via mobile devices significantly are increasing depending on the rapid adoption of smart phones and the development of the network such as LTE. Most of them are enjoying the casual gaming mobile social games that you are able to play easily, but social issues like health problems due to long play time are emerging. The users, however, do not last long because of the simplicity of the game, and there are few people who actually buy game items even though they play it long time. This study has been conducted aiming to overcome such difficulties. This study suggests ways to generate constantly revenue avoiding short-term box-office after the release of mobile social games based on the analysis for market trend and profitability of the mobile social game. In addition, by applying profitability model analyzed to Japan's most successful game practices, this paper suggests the concrete methods about the commitment of the users. For summarizing the main achievements of this paper, providing the latest market information about mobile social games, analysis of profitability, practical implications for the commitment of the users are presented.
