Recently, there is a growing consideration that game authoring tools can play an important role in producing 3D games. In this paper, we introduce our 3D game authoring tool. The tool consists of a map editor, a sound editor, a game data exporter/previewer, and a special effect editor. This tool can help a game designer Produce game data such as game maps, sound effects, and special effects, and so on. In this paper, we implemented a prototype game content to verify the effectiveness of the developed authoring tool.

Along with the development of mobile technology, mobile game has undergone a change from downloadable game to network game, where a large number of users connect to server and play real-time game with a mobile phone. In order to develop these mobile network games economically, a proper, suitable game engine is needed. This study proposes the result of design and implementation of RWMMO-GE(Realtime Wireless Massively Multiplayer Online RPG Game Engine) that is used to develop a mobile network game. The structure of RWMMO-GE, which is the research result of this study, consists of major components such as Network/Client Module, Object Module, Map Tool, Script Editor, and Character Editor. The characteristics of the multiplayer mobile game developed by this engine is that a large number of players can play real-time game in a single map, which implies a possibility of a new business model in this area. This research is a result of the RWMMO-GE supported by 2006 IT Excellent Technology Support Project(No:A1300-0601-0125) of IITA(Institute Information Technology Advancement).

In the field of game design, scenarios are essential part. But general-purpose tools for production of game scenarios have not been developed yet. In order to solve these problems, we studied the difference between game scenarios and other scenarios and analyzed scenario UCC(User Created Contents) and created suitable forms of game scenarios. To make OSMU(One Source Multi Use) easier, we use XML-based format of game scenario. To verify the possibility for practical application of XML-based format, we wrote a game scenario with scenario editor that we made and applied it to scenario-based game 'FEEL Online'.

Educational game is applied by learner's customized education based on its characteristics inducing user's interests and motives and drawing spontaneousness. And, the perception is gradually improved. At present, educational game customized by learners is provided by only the form of character customizing. Therefore, this study suggested visual customizing editor which can provide visual factors to learners in game for more efficient educational game. It will improve interests and motives of learners and increase concentration, so studying effects will be improved.

Most current games are composed of simple operations without a user's actual movements. because they are made up of only virtual space. For that reason, many side effects arise on a user's body and mind. The Alternative Reality Game(ARG) is new game genre that has an effect to mitigate side effects caused by activity on a virtual space. This new kind of game genre can be instrumental role in creating a greater social intimacy and a higher tendency to cooperate that potentially reaches beyond the game context. In this paper, we suggest a real implementation of ARG using mobile devices and NFC tags. In addition, a noble editor for creating an ARG and a game launcher based on mobile device are suggested.

Due to smart phones introduced since 2007, mobile contents production become activated and with this trend, attention among different age groups to production of mobile games has been growing. Whereas in the past, development of games was the domain of developers equipped with technical knowledge, provision of editor-type engines in recent times is lowering the high barrier of entry to game production. This paper proposes an event-based module design method from the perspective of general users, aimed at producing games by oneself with a Unity 3D, one of editor-type game engines. This is to plan behaviors and roles in the unit of modules in the whole process of a game to be in line with the perspective of game production by one person. Each module includes diverse events that express game characteristics. In addition, the script function provided by the Unity 3D is appropriate to embody the proposed module structure and utilizes the Unity 3D. Lastly, this study produce a simple 3D mobile casual game in order to verify whether effective game production from the planning to the development is possible through the proposed method.

A variety of game algorithms have been proposed in recent years. Racing games using these new algorithms have greatly improved compared to those in the past. According to the analysis of racing games done by wheelgamer.com, a website that specializes in racing games, cars are the most common subject in mainstream racing games. These results show there are very few racing games using special subjects such as boats. This paper proposes a method to develop a realistic boat racing game using the Buoyont Force, beyond the limitation of typical racing games that are restricted to cars. A Material Editor based on Unreal Engine 4.12 is used to manifest the Dynamic Material of realistic ocean water. Blueprint, a visual scripting function, is used to materialize buoyancy which allows the boat to move freely along the waves.

The composition of the 'The Game Story' should reflect the game play and development environment. To do that, I borrowed a coordinate format called 'Spatio-temporal Coordinate Array' that was not based on text-based storytelling. I wanted to create a way for the story to describe relationship between 'action' based on time and 'object' based on space. One way to do this was to analyze the concepts using a mystery game in which Spatio-temporal Array is a large role in user's decision-making. As a result, I found that the method -Spatio-temporal coordinates- was an editor containing game play, and a setting tool capable of being used as a conceptual diagram.

In the game industry, traditional game development way was to develop a game engine in advance before developing game content. This has the disadvantage is the high cost of developing the game engine. Further, there is a problem that the game content are not developed unless the game engine is prepared in advance. In order to solve these problems, the game industry has recently selected a method of purchasing a license for a commercial engine, which is a method for improving the game content development productivity, rather than concentrating on game engine development. In this paper, we describe a game object and the structure in Unity and Unreal Engine 4. We compared the editor interface and the supported development languages in the two game engines. We also implemented a First-Person Shooter game to compare how the player's configuration and event handling differ from the two game engines.

In this research, we develop 3D online racing game to aid the comprehension about resource recycling, in the way of provoking children's interest and satisfying scientific curiosity, using 3D graphic editor and DirectX programming tool. This game is developed for children to experience the collection and classification procedure of recycling resources by only taking part in a game naturally, and to learn recycling-process contents produced using animation technique. Especially, we make this game to utilize it as an educational and public medium at home and abroad, and to interchange with foreign institutes, by offering korean version as well as english version. As a result, this game can be used as educational contents about resource recycling, because it is developed in the style that children can enjoy it directly.
