최근 오픈마켓의 급속한 성장과 함께 다중 플랫폼을 위한 콘텐츠 시장이 확대되고 있다. 특히 오픈마켓에 등록된 콘텐츠의 약 15%가 게임콘텐츠가 차지할 만큼 게임은 오픈마켓에서 중요한 비중을 차지하고 있고, 다양한 부가가치를 창출하고 있다. 시뮬레이션게임은 크게 전략시뮬레이션게임, 레이싱시뮬레이션게임, 경영시뮬레이션게임, 육성시뮬레이션게임 등 플레이어의 역할 및 게임의 목적에 따라 다양하게 구분되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 기후변화와 기상 이변으로 인한 환경파괴를 게임배경으로 하여 식물과 동물들이 살아갈 수 있는 환경을 만드는 것을 게임컨셉으로 하였으며, 다중 플랫폼 기반의 육성시뮬레이션장르에 경영적인 측면과 교육적인 기능성게임의 요소를 포함한 게임을 개발하였다.

Various types of games have been published in a smart phone game market. However, there are little serious simulation games among them. In this study, parking simulation game has been developed and published on the Apple app store and Android market, to analyze the usability and prospects of the smart phone based serious simulation game. Developed game was designed to give users realistic simulation experience with immersion in the smart phone environment. In case of Apple app store, more than 300 thousands download have been recorded. This means serious simulation games have much more potential for commercial value, even though there are constrains with small display and user interface.

This paper proposes a Situation Simulation Framework for implementing computer game and describes the possibility of analyzing game with unfolding situation. In last few years game systems have been evolving from the performance of physical engine, network traffic in the on line game to the representation of rendering physical phenomena. In computer game, a situation hierarchy structure which allows the designer for simulating high-level specifications of game structure. Logically simulated environment is created by defining situations and events based on hierarchy structure of the situation. We classify events into explicit event is occurred by user and implicit event is occurred by system. Our study defines the existence of objects is the most prevalent factor applied to any event in game world. The advantages of this approach are able to allow for providing the conceptual design for simulation game and analyzing the situation in the game world. And this method allows us to decrease the complexity of system design and abstraction modeling for the simulation game. Specially, the introduction of the definition of events allows us to approach game design in a structural manner rather than by their classification. The proposed method was implemented in the "Shooting BaDuk" among games.

현재 웹 코스웨어의 대부분은 하이퍼텍스트 문서들간의 비선형적인 연결에 의한 학습 방식을 채택하고 있으나, 이는 단순한 페이지 링크형 학습으로서 그리 커다란 교육 효과를 발휘하기에는 어렵다는 한계를 맞이하고 있다. 이러한 상황에서 다중 학습자가 동기적으로 참여하는 시뮬레이션 게임 방식은 웹 코스웨어의 현재 한계를 뛰어넘을 수 있는 하나의 교수·학습 모델이 될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. 이에 본 논문에서는 다중 학습자가 동기적으로 참여하는 시뮬레이션 게임 방식의 웹 코스웨어에 대한 수업 모델을 제안하고 있다. 이 수업 모델은 Atkinson의 체제적 접근 방식의 게임 설계, Alessi와 Trollip의 시뮬레이션의 구조와 절차, Reigeluth와 Schwartz의 시뮬레이션에서의 학습자 역할에 대한 분석 연구를 기반으로 설계하였다.

The progress in Information & Communication Technology enables data scientists to analyze big data for identifying peoples' daily lives and tacit preferences. A variety of industries already aware the potential usefulness of analyzing big data. However limited use of big data has been performed in game industry. In this research, we adopt data mining technique to analyze data gathered from a strategic simulation game. Decision Tree, Random Forest, Multi-class SVM, and Linear Regression techniques are used to find the most important variables to users' game levels. We provide practical guides for game design and usability based on the analyzed results.

As game markets are rapidly growing, the cost and period of game development are both increasing. These imply that the game development projects require more professional management of the project. Game mechanics is an algorithm of the gameplay on a specific game-platform. Game mechanics is concentrated on engineering elements of the game and its quality should be continuously managed from the design phase to the implementation phase. In the design phase, useful methods that can analyze the quality of game mechanics are the simulations. There are several simulation methods of the game mechanics but each method has limited use range because of its characteristics. In this Paper, we survey the game mechanics simulation methods and analyze the characteristics of each method. By the analyzed results, the Petri net model simulation method is good for analyzing total quality of no-error, optimization, and play-balance of the game mechanics but others are not.

Predicting stealthy behaviors plays an important role in designing stealth games. It is, however, difficult to automate this task because human players interact with dynamic environments in real time. In this paper, we present a reinforcement learning (RL) method for simulating stealthy movements in dynamic environments, in which an integrated model of Q-learning with Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) is exploited as an action classifier. Experiment results show that our simulation agent responds sensitively to dynamic situations and thus is useful for game level designer to determine various parameters for game.

The command that game users give should be reflected to the game immediately and should be transferred to several objects at once. Also, all game users who participate in game should keep the same progress situation in Real-Time Strategy game. But it takes a certain amount of time to get the command pass to other users, and it is important issue that many commands are synchronized in a short amount of time on server of RTS game. Therefore we propose a scheme for an efficient synchronization based on event locking method on RTS game in this paper. We design and implement the gaming server applying to our proposed scheme. Also, we show efficiency of our proposed scheme by performance analysis in this paper.

In football simulation games, it is very important for the interest of the game to make the stats of the football players close to reality. As the management concept is introduced to the sports simulation game, when the user plays the game for a long time, the existing player character retires. Therefore, the game creates the environment of the game by creating a new player in the game. In this study, we propose a method to create a new player character by using genetic algorithm to have the optimal ability similar to existing players. We compare and evaluate the player character with the existing random generation method, the correction random method and the proposed algorithm, and verify the validity of the proposed method.
