Chinese shadow puppetry is an ancient form of drama with a long history. Known as the "mother of Chinese folk opera", it has rich cultural connotations and artistic value. At the same time, as a classic video game genre, side-scrolling games have many loyal fans around the world. However, in recent years, some previous entertainment cultures such as shadow puppetry are slowly disappearing. In contrast, video games play an increasingly important role in people's entertainment. Combining Chinese traditional culture with video games can be a great way to promote the preservation of these cultures. By making traditional culture more accessible and engaging, developers can help to ensure that these cultures continue to be enjoyed by future generations.The side-scrolling game is a classic game type, and it has many similarities with shadow puppetry. This paper will analyze the similarities and differences between Chinese shadow puppetry and horizontal version games, and try to explore how to organically integrate the two, so as to promote the inheritance and development of traditional culture, and promote cultural innovation and the development of creative industries.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the extensibility of transmedia contents of fantasy genre, and then to examine the characteristics of trans-media contents and analyze how the contents of fantasy genre have become trans-media. The definition and characteristics of the trans-media are distinguished from the existing theories such as One Source Multi Use (OSMU) and Crossmedia. At the same time, this study analyzes the extensibility of the trans-media contents applied to the fantasy genre and it compares with other medias such as novels, videos, games, etc. This shows that the game of the throne was more like to the second order adaptation through video adaptations that succeeded in success compared to the original novels that in expanding into trans-media compared with existing fantasy genre contents represented by the Lord of the Ring. The difference is that although the game of the throne is a fantasy genre content, it does not inherit the existing database genre elements, and it has been found that it has a different aspect from the existing customary form from the role of the character to the whole narrative. The analyzes presented in this study are equally valid for single content, not just for transmedia specific elements.

During the past 10 years, serious game industry has been growing steadily. But the system which could stably and reliably provide metadata information and quality information related to serious game remained unexploited. Existing systems only support the basic management functions of metadata search centered. Therefore, we have developed an integrated system to manage the quality information of serious game as well as to improve the inconvenient details of the existing systems. And we designed quality evaluation elements and quality information supply-methods, and linked up them to the system. Furthermore, we conducted user's satisfaction assessment survey on the use of the system. The advantage of the system is that the system provide a lot of useful information for general users and developers, and support a tool to manage all information related to serious game by easy and convenient method for managers.

The domestic game market is still on a trend of growth. Particularly, as the demand for mobile games is increased, the mobile version is developed in a growing number of cases even after the launch of the games for PCS. In a bid to search for the effective method of UI design depending on the differences between the platforms, this study analyzed the types of different media in the first place and as the approaches to the UI design based on the affordance concept, implemented on the platform of PCS and implemented on the platform of mobile devices were analyzed as the cases which are the same MMORPG games. Since the differences between the game platforms can cause the variations in the physical size of the screens depending on the environment in which the user interface (UI) is rendered and may often involve the controls implemented by the touch of screens rather than the manipulation based on the keyboard and mouse, they usually give the influences on the direction of UI designs. By analyzing these UI elements based on the affordance concept, it may be possible to find the effective method of UI design in the future.

Client- server interaction in a massive multi-player online role-playing game(MMORPG) is usually made via network-message Passing. Since the game contents and elements in such MMORPGs are consistently evolved, messages need to be added, deleted, or modified accordingly. Therefore, game programmers are repeatedly required to write new programs or at least modify existing programs. The XML-based message definition system introduced in this paper facilitates the addition and modification of messages for game interaction ; it not only allows programmers to save a considerable amount of time for modifying existing messages or adding new messages but also relieves them of a serious burden of programming bugs. In addition, this system can be used for general client-server applications.

Over online education based on wired Internet technologies, due to recent development of various mobile technologies, education based on mobile environment becomes popular. In the meanwhile, the young students are more interested in game-based education that provides more interaction and instant feedback than one-way cramming education. The purpose of this thesis is to develop a new motivation model for mobile environment and apply the model to the elementary school students. The proposed model, based on Keller's motivation model, is designed to increase study effects through motivating students with various game strategies. The proposed motivation model has the following characteristics. First of all, the best game genre can be provided for each study theme in early planning stage. Second, the model can allow students to have more interests in their study activity by providing various edutainment elements. Third, a stage of producing game synopsis and concrete scenario is included in motivation model. The stage enables more complete combination of game and mobile motivation strategies. Finally, the proposed model allows contents developed to be appled in teaching plan without any refinement. That is, the model allows a teaching plan to be extracted from study contents instantly.
