Recent development in game technologies has offered various game environments, but the existing games have not provided realistically felt game environments because the element of the game is virtually generated in most of the games. Therefore, we propose a mixed game environment based on spatial augmented reality by using a creature that really exists. In the proposed game environment, tracking based on camera images created in real-time enables the provision of information about the real creature that is both still and moving. The game environment is presented with virtual object by using the coordinate of a real creature. Then, spatial augmented reality technology is applied for mixing a real creature and virtual game elements. Thus, the game scene is displayed by the spatial augmented reality technique based on the real-time coordinate of real creatures. Moreover, by providing the realistic game environment based on the spatial augmented reality, our system can be applied to various game contents that are actually felt as real. Most importantly, our system arouses the players' interest in a new kind of game environment.

Beta-test is a essential step to verify a online-game developing. Through beta-test, we can find out some problems related to game-balancing, game-play, user behaviors and so on. And the game developing can be modified to make up a weak-point. However, a beta-test in online game development is a very time consuming and heavy expense work. Therefore, in this study, the simulation model for growth-balancing and battle among characters was proposed in order to reduce the duration and cost for beta-test. And it was applied to Travia online game successfully.

This paper presents the development of a racing game by controlling multiple smartphones based on ad hoc communication. The proposed racing game by the smartphone-based control interface does not require any specific game console or remote controller. Thus, any multiple users who have smartphones are able to play the game in a monitor at the same time. In addition, the developed game is applicable to actual mobile robots in cases where the positions of all robots are measured, since its game unit is a mobile robot model with a differential drive. An experimental result shows that the racing game in a PC can be realized by the proposed communication interface through four iPhones based on acceleration sensors.

This study explored the current supply status on Contents Technology R&D(research and development) and friendly function Game Industry targeting to elderly consumers. The game contents including the functional components are categorized the sixth category of CT R&D's fundamental planning. The function game targeting to elderly focused on emotional and physical recovering to barrier, user friendliness, simplicity and certainty of game performance. The purpose of game participation are health, well-being, psychological wellness and communication. The functional game consisted of various version procedure by socio-demographic, the accessibility to game media and device.

This study proposes the development of 'Mandala 37', a puzzle game based content that learns the principles of 37 Honored Ones within the Diamond World Mandala. The proposed game is a new type of learning content that combines the development process of 37 Honored Ones with the characteristics of the puzzle game. It aims to increase the understanding of Buddhist content by inducing learners' interest and increasing their concentration. Learners can learn and understand the principles of the emergence of 37 Honored Ones naturally through the rules of the game. This study introduces the implementation process of the proposed game and explains how learners perceive the principle of 37 Honored Ones within the Diamond World Mandala through the game.

Procurement of development funds is a very difficult process in the Korean game industry where competition is fierce. Recently, crowdfunding has been used as a convenient platform to attract potential investors to secure the development cost of the game. This study explored the factors influencing the success of crowdfunding for game development projects. We collected data on 229 game development projects in Tumblebuck, a reward-based crowdfunding site in Korea. According to the results of the logistic regression model, the factors that have a positive effect on the success of funding are the average compensation amount relative to the target amount, the number of SNS shares, the number of updates, and the originality of the proposed game. Video playback time has been found to have a negative impact. Based on the results of this study, it is expected that planning a game development project considering the variables affecting the success of crowdfunding will help financing.

Due to the advent of high performance feature-phone and smart-phone, the scale of mobile games and the member of developers are increased rapidly. The production process of mobile games is changing to meet these needs. Tools for efficient program development are produced worldwide, but tool's research for the event direction is inadequate. In the event direction, the game designers play more important roles than programmers. In this paper, we develop the mobile game event direction tool for game designers. And we make the events of the released mobile games to test the efficiency and usefulness of tool that we developed. The result shows that the performance is enhanced about 15% in development period.

In this paper, many game companies seek better optimization and easy-to-apply logic to prolong the game's lifespan and provide a better game environment for users. Therefore, research will be showing the game's key input response method called RoS (Response of Speed). The purpose of the method is to simultaneously perform various motions with the character showing natural motion without errors even if the character's control key is duplicated. This method is for the developers so they can reduce bugs and development time in future game development. To be used with quickly generating game environments, the new method compares with the popular motion method, so which method is faster and can adapt to diverse games. The paper suggested that the Response of Speed method is a better method for optimizing frames and reducing the number of reacting seconds by showing a faster response and speed). With the method popularity of scrollers, many 2D cross-scroll games follow the formula of Dash, Shoot, Walk, Stay, and Crouch. With the development of game engines, it is becoming easier to implement them. Therefore, although the method presented in the above paper differs from the popular method, it is expected that there will be no great difficulty in applying it to the game because transplantation is easy. In the future, we plan to study to minimize the delay of each connection of the character motion so that the game can be optimized to best.

This study estimated direct factors that have effect to completion degree of game, and we constructs structural equation model that can evaluate completion degree of game using empirical analysis. For it, we obtained weight of components of game development by eigenvector method for analytic hierarchy process. Using calculated weight, we also let that components of game development is observating variable of X, and genre of game is observating variable of Y. And we constructs structural equation model with LISREL program

Since the advent of digital games with hardware development a key component of the game characters are changed to retard the rate at which types of users based on their favorite theory of human proportion. Many popular to gamers in the game according to the change in the retard rate in a unique image of the character. Studies on the head and body proportion are thought that up to now been insufficient. The purpose of this study is to examine a fundamental human proportion that has importance as a molding factor in the game character development, it investigated the characteristics of the game character, and classifying the retard rate of the game character, through the research method of analyzing the results, into the retard rate look for and investigate studying the effect on future game images. Five types of game characters that make up the analysis were analyzed with a unique image, and the more specialized users prefer retard rate, the figurative exaggeration to retard rate than the actual main body. Utilizing a bit exaggerated the difficulties of the character looks relatively small proportion character in the graphic wallpaper increased visibility. The proportion of a game character through the study is considered as a very important factor as the game image in the game development.
