As the development of game graphic technology, games include many characters and various virtual worlds. In this paper we proposed the architecture which can make efficient game world through ontology technology. We applied Gaia theory to this architecture. And this game world can have ecological feedback structure. So we proposed the Gaia game architecture which can increase the interaction between user and game world.

The feature of digital media's interactivity made the traditional storytelling to be evolved into a new concept of digital storytelling. Unlike films or animations, games' storytelling takes open-ended design method; thus, it is possible to create unlimited number of stones within a game depending upon the decisions of player characters. In this paper, a character-centered game storytelling system of a highly story-based RPG genre will be reviewed, and, it analyzes case studies of how a character with various story values can interact with its background story, virtual game world, and many events in its game storytelling system. Game storytelling structure and game mechanics are related to each other very closely. Therefore, it is possible to control the player's overall movement as the character's story develops according to a predictable structure or situation.

In many game narrations, completed games have been used to analyze the users' response. But in this case, one tends to exclude the narrations that producers intended at the production stage, and games tend to have a narrative structure in a text form before they turn into the digital form of a completed game. For these reasons, we broadened the existing definition of game narration to include from production to completion. We then divided the production into many stages and analyzed how narrative structure changes at each stage. We divided narration into three stages? initial stage, storytelling stage, and form change stage. Game narrations maintain the form similar to the one in exiting narrations at the initial and storytelling stages, but turn into functional document at the form change stage. And at this stage, digital results take the place of narrative expressions.

This paper describes basic producing techniques of fighting game, collision detection between fighters, fighting skill, thinking routine and processing method of enemy characters, and algorithm structure of fighting game. Also, I studied as for algorithm of the template and strategy methods of design pattern class applied to a fighting game.

Due to improvements in the capabilities of commercial game engines, there are increasing instances of applying game engines to scientific visualization applications. This study describes a case of creating a virtual reality application that visualizes medical volume data based on the Unity3D game engine. When using a game engine, there is an advantage that various functions required for an application are basically provided, such as depth sorting of translucent objects or virtual reality hardware support. On the other hand, there is a restriction that the structure of the application program should be modified to suit the characteristics of the game engine. This paper describes a method for visualizing medical volume data using the structure of a game engine. As a result, we were able to create a virtual reality scene that consisted of surface data and medical volume data fragments together. And we confirmed the possibility of game engine as a future medical simulation production tool.

Methodology of server development is so important for the development of online game because the client where the users play the online game depends on the server. In this research, we have studied data linkage methods of the online game server which permits the server to save and retrieve the user data on the database. The data linkage method of the server is critical to make the users continue their games anywhere online. In this paper, several data linkage methods have been proposed and classified with their definitions. The proposed methods have been evaluated with the experimental data. It will contribute for the developer of online game server to choose a good data linkage method for the features of the game.

This study explored how the network structure in terms of social interactions among users via a mobile game has changed longitudinally. The main findings are summarized as follows. First, in-game events are likely to increase the social interactions of users. Second, some power users played key roles in the game users' network and tend to make a large sub-group for interacting among users. Third, it is suggested that the analysis of network structure among users can be a useful tool for monitoring which in-game events are effective and how they are mutually interconnected for collaboration.

The game industry has grown not only by combining them with various technologies also introducing new types of business models such as P2P, F2P, and P2W. Furthermore, games which implemented X2E model with blockchain technology are recently in the spotlight of the public attention. As domestic game companies have also prospect the blockchain games feasible, they are seeking ways to expand their global market share by strengthening the X2E model. Hence, by carrying this new business model out, it is expected to diversify their global revenue stream, which was previously confined to Asia region. This study analyzed the case of companies that have implemented the P2E and C2E models in order to suggest the direction of development for the game platform in Web 3.0 era. The cases of P2E game platform, which constitute of Axie Infinity and Mir 4, encompass the compensation structure, the stabilization mechanism of the in-game token economy, and future strategies regarding blockchain gaming. Likewise, the platform structure, business model, and future growth potential was discussed in terms of C2E scheme, focusing on the ZEPETO and Roblox cases. Based on the above case analysis, this study attempted to provide information on the current limitations and development directions of the P2E and C2E platforms. The current limitations in legal and industrial aspects should be addressed to facilitate the blooming of blockchain and P2E game industry. In addition, the necessity of not only social support also improvement on the technology and social stigma of full-time creators is ought to be emphasized in an effort to encourage the development of C2E platforms.

In this paper, we develop the thinking extension education program for the gifted students of information, and prove the validity and effectiveness of the proposed model by presenting the Tic-tac-toe problem as the practical example of the information-gifted students. This model consists of four phases which has the game tree as data structure and the search of game tree as control structure. And the search of game tree becomes the basis of the thinking extension education program. This model gives the help for students to learn representing the problem as tree structure and solving the problem of tree structure using the search method of game tree. The internal ability of the information-gifted for thinking extension of this education program contains the fluency, perceptiveness, originality, power of concentration, imaginative power, analyzing skills, pattern recognition, space sense, synthesizing, problem-solving.

In this paper, a realtime approach to the simulation of virtual paper with an adaptive mesh structure is proposed. The proposed method can be applied to arbitrary triangular mesh structures and efficiently produces wrinkles and creases on the paper surface with stable numerical integration and deformation-based mesh refinement. In order to plausibly represent the crumples on the paper object, we employed an adaptive mesh structure with breakable springs. Because the adaptive structure continuously inserts or removes vertices and edges to or from the mesh structure, the conservation of the mass and the momentum should be carefully taken into account for the plausible simulation of the virtual paper. The proposed method produced plausible animation of paper-like thin shell in realtime environments.
