본 논문에서는 Windows Phone 기반의 모바일 게임 Bumple을 설계하고 구현한다. 이 게임은 XNA Framework를 사용하여 개발하기 때문에 상속받은 코드들을 자동으로 생성하고, 게임 개발 관련 콘텐트 리소스의 등록 및 게임 로직을 메소드로 구현한다. 이 게임의 특징은 슈팅(shooting), 이미지(image), 스토리(story) 등의 3개 요소를 고려하여 행성들의 다양한 특징을 살려 스토리를 구성한다. 또한 Planimal이라는 가상캐릭터를 도입하여 행성에 나타난 탐사로봇과 대적하여 스테이지를 클리어 한다.

Since educational and fun elements coexist in an educational game, it is important to come up with standards that can elicit fun with the game as well as educational standards. Many of the existing developed educational games have received low marks in the characteristics of entertainment and game design. Thus, how to make up for their entertainment characteristics is important. This paper analyzes gaming elements of puzzle games that were released for smart phones and gained massive popularity from their users and will apply them to educational games. Such games that have gained popularity and won a commercial success include Anipang, Anipang 2, Candy Crush Saga, Farm Heroes Saga and Pokopang. This study will analyze gaming elements of these games. By analyzing the educational games, it is applied to the game elements of casual games. In addition, we have proposed a element that can enhance the immersive. Game design elements that can improve entertainment characteristics include game rules, stages and missions. Elements that can increase immersion include items, background maps and new learning environments. This paper has significance in that it analyzes entertainment characteristics, which mean the fun of games through those that have been a commercial success and applies them to educational games.

비디오게임에 삽입되는 컷씬(cut-scene)은 배경스토리(back story)의 전달 또는 상황에 대한 연출 장치의 기능을 하나, 플레이어와 게임 간의 조작적 상호작용을 일시적으로 단절시킨다. 본 논문은 비디오게임 '언차티드2'의 26개 스테이지에서 플레이어와 게임의 상호작용을 이어가는 컷씬 '인터랙션 무비'에 대한 플레이어의 행동과 결과를 조사하여 그 기능을 분류하였다.

Most of the match-3 puzzle games supports automatic play using the MCTS algorithm. However, implementing reinforcement learning agents is not an easy job because it requires both the knowledge of machine learning and the way of complex interactions within the development environment. This study proposes a method in which we can easily design reinforcement learning agents and implement game play agents by applying PPO(Proximal Policy Optimization) algorithms. And we could identify the performance was increased about 44% than the conventional method. The tools we used are the Unity 3D game engine and Unity ML SDK. The experimental result shows that agents became to learn game rules and make better strategic decisions as experiments go on. On average, the puzzle gameplay agents implemented in this study played puzzle games better than normal people. It is expected that the designed agent could be used to speed up the game level design process.

"White Day", a horror adventure game that has gone down in the history of the Korean gaming industry, is not a cruel horror game with hideous monsters and spooky mood, but a Korean-style horror game with auditory effects of ghastly sound. This paper aims at identifying the positive story-telling structure through the components of the game. This study found that the game is based on a well-organized scenario by the background, events and characters. In addition, its design and story-telling structure turned out to reinforce the positive effects of the game, by not imitating the western-style splatter games. As it provides players with playful components that bear mimicry and ilinx to maximize interactive fun, White Day is a prime example of positive games that are strongly needed in this era.

게임 개발엔진인 Unity3D를 활용한 3인칭 슈팅 게임으로 쉬는 시간 등의 자투리 시간에 즐길 수 있는 짧은 플레이타임을 가지고 복잡한 3D 슈팅 게임과 달리 쉽고 간단한 조작법을 가진 게임이다. 적 객체를 공격하거나 회피하며 각 스테이지당 5분을 생존하면 클리어되며 스코어에 기반한 재화를 지급하는 방식으로 진행된다. 게임 내 그래픽은 Unity Asset Store를 통해 그래픽 Asset을 구매하여 게임 내 사용되는 비행선, 물 효과, 탄환에 활용하였으며 일부 비행선은 기존 Asset을 재조립하여 만들었다.

Unreal Engine 5의 Level Streaming 기능은 플레이어가 플레이 도중 메모리에 Map을 로드/언 로드하는 등의 작업을 처리하는 기능이다. 이때 Level Streaming은 커다란 Map의 당장 필요한 부분에만 메모리에 로드하고, 렌더링하여 특히 Seamless Open world 장르에서 많이 사용된다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 방식은 이 Level Streaming 기능을 이용하여 현재 개발 진행 중인 Rogue-Like 장르 게임에서 비동기 방식의 로딩 화면과 Stage 전환을 통해 좀 더 부드러운, 즉 더 높은 Frames per Second(fps)를 플레이어에게 제공하기 위한 새로운 스테이지 시스템의 구현방식을 연구한다.

유전자 알고리즘은 문제 크기가 커짐에 따라 해집합이 폭발적으로 늘어나 최적해를 찾기 힘든 최적화 문제에 주로 적용되는 알고리즘으로, 최근에는 게임에서의 경로찾기, 인공지능 및 레벨디자인 문제에 많이 적용되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 퍼즐게임에서의 레벨디자인 문제의 해법으로 유전자 알고리즘의 적용 방법을 제안한다. 본 논문에서 적용한 퍼즐게임은 주어진 그림에 도형 조각을 가능한 빠른 시간 내에 맞추는 게임으로, 스테이지가 진행됨에 따라 높은 난이도의 퍼즐이 나타나도록 하는 것이 중요하다. 제안된 알고리즘을 통해 퍼즐게임의 유의미한 레벨 조절이 가능함을 확인할 수 있었다.

An improvement of a mobile game content production and a service technology are bringing an explosive increase of a mobile game market. Currently serviced mobile games are using a WAP method and a download method. Because of technical problems, we couldn't develop the mobile game content which sequentially linked WAP->download and download->WAP. In this study, we design and develop the mobile game content which sequentially linked WAP->download and download->WAP. In the proposed method, we can linked the stage and the ranking information as sharing a data on real time that it is impossible in the previous mobile game content.
