본 연구에서는 온라인 환경과 모바일 환경이 가지는 각 플랫폼의 약점은 서로 보완하고 각각이 가진 강점을 최대한 활용할 수 있는 방법으로 유무선 연동을 이용한 게임을 제안한다. 이를 위해 유무선 연동방식익 게임 구성방법과 이러한 게임구성에 있어 게임 플레이어가 몰입할 수 있는 요인들에 대해 고찰하였다. 본 연구는 게임의 구성요소를 코어메카닉(Core Mechanic)과 코어 메카닉의 변화(Core Mechanic Variation), 캐릭터(Character)로 구분하고 이러한 구성요소들을 물리적, 사회적 시뮬레이션(Simulation)이라는 방법으로 구성하여 이를 실제 유무선 연동방식 구현 사례 게임 <똘끼>를 통해 설명한다. 또한, 게임을 디자인하는데 있어 게임 플레이어가 몰입할 수 있는 3가지 변인으로서 통제감, 숙련도와 도전감, 사회적 상호작용을 제안하고, 이들 변인들을 게임 플레이어에게 제공하는 방법들을 적용 사례 <똘끼>를 통해 설명한다. 본 연구는 하나의 플랫폼에서만 플레이할 수 있었던 기존의 게임과는 차별화되는 유무선 연동을 이용한 게임을 통해 게임의 구성방법과 게임플레이어에게 게임에 대한 몰입감을 제공하는 방법에 대하여 연구함으로써 게임디자인에 있어서 새로운 구성방향을 제시했다는 점에서 의의를 가진다.

Social network game induces to continue participation among the players through asynchronous connection mode. This characteristic of SNG that is required active social connectedness and that is the main purpose of SNG. The player's behavior attributes related with social connectedness can be divided by the environmental conception. In this paper, the player's behavior is divided into two types : Social Connectedness(SC) and Non-Social Connectedness(NC). Each type is categorized in specific actions of players that is explored. Also, experimental data collected from player's playing-game is analyzed in the comparison of each behavior and the relation of playfulness. Those results have suggested the scope for designing a appliable model on SNG development and represented the guideline to verify speedy the massive player's behavior through simplifying the player's behavior derived in SNG play experiences.

This research examined the effects of user experience in driving simulation game between using general monitor and 3D virtual reality device, Oculus Rift DK2. We compared the difference of user experience such as presence, flow and arousal by gaming environment. We also tested the effects of virtual reality on driving attitude, emotional pleasure and satisfaction. 100 beginner drivers with a driver's license participated in the experiment of two modes of gaming environment. As a result, all the three user experiences were proved to be significantly higher in VR game play than general monitor game. Also driving attitude, emotional pleasure and satisfaction showed a significant difference in virtual reality. This study makes a theoretical and practical contribution to the application of the next virtual reality game with a special function.

최근 3D 모바일 게임이 이슈가 되고 있다. 휴대폰이 필수품인 시대가 왔고 휴대폰만 있으면 어디서든 게임을 즐길 수 있다는 점 때문에 모바일 게임 산업은 급속도로 발전하고 있다. 그리고 점차 모바일 환경이 하드웨어가 발전하고 3D 가 지원되는 게임 전용폰이 나오면서 모바일 3D 게임이 많이 개발되고 있다. 그러나 휴대폰의 기본 기능은 통화하는 것이니 만큼 PC 에서의 게임이나 플레이스테이션 같은 게임기와는 구조에 차이가 있다. 모바일 환경에서는 휴대폰 버튼만을 사용하여야 한다는 제약이 있다. 그래서 현재 출시된 여거 모바일 게임의 UI 와 기존 PC 게임의 UI 를 비교하고 휴대폰이라는 제한된 환경에서의 도시경영 3D 시뮬레이션 게임을 위한 효율적인 UI 를 만들고자 하였다. 휴대폰에서는 마우스를 사용할 수 없기 때문에 기본적인 게임 조작은 전부 버튼으로 조작할 수 있게 하였다. 그리고 도시경영시뮬레이션 게임이기 때문에 일반 아케이드 게임이나 캐주얼게임에 비해 상대적으로 메뉴가 많고 복잡하다. 그래서 사용자가 설명을 바로 보면서 메뉴를 선택할 수 있도록 메뉴선택은 전부 숫자버튼을 사용하였다. 그리고 사용자가 메뉴를 외우고 있지 않아도 사용가능 하도록 화면 위에 메뉴설명이 같이 나오게 하였다. 사용자는 메뉴별 설명을 보면서 원하는 쪽으로 선택을 하게 된다. 지역설정에서는 마우스의 드래그기능이 안되기 때문에 처음시작점과 끝부분을 선택하여 마우스를 대신하였다.

This study attempted to identify differences in user experience such as spatial presence, social presence, flow, empathy, anxiety, and perceived risk between simulating characters of animation and of actual userimage. The playtesting method was conducted on 60 male smokers using 'Smoking Sims', a simulation game produced by The Center for Health Communication Studies. The results found that the simulation of actual image character is higher in the level of perceived risks for smoking, spatial presence, social presence, flow, and empathy than the simulation of animation character. The study shows that identification with a game character affects user experience and enhances the effectiveness of perceived risks as well. It emphasizes the importance of game design to implement identification in serious game like a smoking cessation simulation.

The format of game play varies depending on the priority of game design components by genre. In this study, in order to quantitatively derive the priority of game design components by genre, 6 game design components and 6 genres were extracted through prior research on game design components and genres, and then the research model was designed, and priorities were derived through AHP. Feedback system in action games, story in adventure games, mechanics in role-playing games, mechanics in simulation games, feedback system in table games, and mechanics in puzzle games were highly prioritized.

Currently the gamification as marketing technique has appeared in the field non-related with game, applied to game elements. The alternate reality game pulled down the boundary between the real and the virtual has come out. New trend game has shown beyond the range of the existing game. The possibility has import into online baseball simulation game. The objective of this research is the exploratory approach to build GOMS model through three subjects to the famous pro-baseball manager game. After game playing session, three subjects' utterance with game experience was recorded. We built the goal hierarchy of goal in GOMS to pro-baseball manager game to analyze the vocabulary in three subjects' utterance. We try to find the possibility of gamification in alternate reality game interacting between the real and the virtual, and demolishing them.

As the advances of Internet infra structure and the support of console and mobile for network games, the industry of online game has been growing rapidly, and the online game traffic in the Internet has been increasing steadily. For design and simulation of game network, the analysis of online game traffic have to be preceded. Therefore a number of papers have been proposed for the purpose of analyzing the traffic data of network games and providing the models. We make and use GameNet Analyzer as a dedicated tool for game traffic measurement and analysis in this paper. We measure the traffic of FPS Quake 3, RTS Starcraft and MMORPG World of Warcraft (WoW), and analyze the packet size, packet IAT(inter-arrival time), data rate and packet rate according to the number of players and in-game behaviors. We also present the traffic models using measured traffic data. These analysis and models of game traffic can be used for effective network simulation, performance evaluation of game network and the design of online games.

The network performance of MOGs(Multiplayer Online Games) can be measured by the amount of network loads and the response times on user inputs. This paper introduces a frame locking algorithm and a game turn algorithm that have been used for game synchronization in the area of RTS(Real-time Strategy Simulation) Games, a kind of MOG; the results of performance evaluation of these two algorithms are also given. In addition, a server architecture for MOG servers in which replacing synchronization algorithms can be done easily for pursuing efficient performance evaluation, is also introduced.
