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.

성장 가능성이 큰 콘텐츠의 핵심으로 불리는 게임은 매년 높은 매출을 보임에도 불구하고, 사회 내 입지가 좁아지고 있다. 이를 탈피하기 위해, 힐링 콘텐츠를 통한 게임의 단점을 극복하고, 부정적인 인식을 줄이기 위한 게임 개발을 시도하였다. 본 논문에서는 게임 산업의 현재를 분석하고, 힐링 콘텐츠를 활용한 게임 개발배경을 설명하고, 힐링 콘텐츠의 정의와 그 내용을 활용한 퍼즐 어드벤처 게임을 개발하였다.

The serious game refers to the game which is combined game's fun with the peculiar object of the field including the education, medical treatment, public, and etc. By doing so, it can help that the learners are able to acquire the knowledge and technology of the relative field with joy. Currently, the serious game of the various fields is launched. However, there are many obstacles in Korea to develop the market. This paper is the research for showing how to overcome these problems. For this purpose, first, this research investigates the present condition of the serious game in the planning and development and marketing viewpoint. Second, the obstacles of the serious game are analyzed. Finally, the methods for solving these obstacles are shown. This paper is helpful for finding out the strategies for solving the obstacles without too much consideration of obstacle elements for serious game development.

This paper is aimed at studying the sexuality elements and their perceptibility in the sports photographs and images of internet portal media. The sexuality elements are composed of athletes' uniform, body and external feature. In an analysis of sports' users through portal media, there were some differences in an experimental group of men. There was the difference between an experimental group of men and a of men and women sports game. The perceptibility of sexuality imaged by sports images of men and women games in portal media was higher in an of men and women sports game than the experimental group of men. Accordingly, the sexuality imaged through sports images of portal media had a higher effect on sports' men-users.

In recent years, various virtual reality games are becoming commercialized. A variety of large 3D online games popular with users has begun to transform into VR games. < the Elder Scrolls V: skyrim VR > as a derivative of large-scale 3D online games < the Elder Scrolls V: skyrim special edition >, Since its launch on the steam game platform in April 2018, because of its original UI design, maximizes the user's immersive experience and firmly maintains the leading position of VR games. Although the visual similarities between < the Elder Scrolls V: Skylim VR > and < the Elder Scrolls V: Skylim Special Edition > are high, but the visual elements in the UI are quite different. This paper studies characters, scenes, operating interfaces, colors and fonts five visual UI elements that enhance the immersion in game. It provided a unique interface design reference to immersive experience of new VR games in the future.

A Human Computation Game(HCG) is designed to solve difficult problems that cannot be dealt with computers with a large number of individuals' voluntary participations. Most existing relative studies focus on building more efficient system for problem solving, or the individual cases on the development of certain HCGs. However, a game is fully completed by the players who play it. Therefore, additional research is needed to annalize the ludic elements of HCGs, which induce people to play them voluntarily. We studied the purposes, tasks, and the game mechanics of 31 HCGs, then suggested how to design more enjoyable HCGs.

As the part of a research project, we examined the causes of game addiction. Traumatized infants may project into virtual space a variety of mental symptoms such as aggression and delusion, division and depression, lack of integrated ego, low emotional awareness, compulsive obsession with objects, rebellion against social norms, and low reality awareness. Game space plays various roles in exhibiting presence of self, omnipotence and hopelessness, division of the self-image, emotional duality, immersion, and motility. This roles have both functional and dysfunctional effects.

The growth of a game character is represented by the addition and subtraction of the status value. The status factors are variously defined and used depending on the kind of games. In this paper, we propose how character 's status elements are defined and used. We also propose a method for assigning a status value when generating a character considering growth. This method is designed using genetic algorithms to link the growth of a character with an element of time and to generate a character with the appropriate status value according to the change of time. The proposed method is verified through experiments based on time variation.

In this study, we analyzed the motion animation of game characters, which is a visual part of the game elements for 'Hit Impact'. The game selected for analysis focused on the movements of the characters in the arcade game , which is thought to have a weak 'Hit Impact' and looked for the cause. We also analyzed the differences in the motion of the characters in the home transplant version of , which is considered to have improved 'Hit Impact', compared to the arcade version. As a result of the analysis, it was found that the reason for the weak 'Hit Impact' in the arcade version was mainly due to the wrong timing and judgment of hitting and hitting movements, and at the same time, supplemented physical reactions and stun, camera directing, and hitting effects could have a significant impact on improving 'Hit Impact'.

Since the advent of digital games, game of the core platform has been changed from the arcade to the mobile device. I consider that I try to seek the direction of the use of game which works for PC and mobile in comparison to analyze the changes in the game graphics. Effects of three types of game platforms on the game graphics, change depends on the game of the genre and game graphics. By reduction of the screen size, a new interface was appeared. However, as directly applying the PC version of the interface, it has brought about a user's inconvenience. I have found that mobile hardware development have not been affecting the game graphics. The common point of PC and mobile, they both have the limit of the platform which they own. There is a need to take into account the differences of graphically elements to use the player language interface.
