I Previous scrolling-shooter games cannot represent various emotions of characters as a personality and situations, so it can only represent simple and momentary emotions. This paper purpose to develop and applying an artificial emotion which gives emotional responses and actions to character as a personality and situations of a character. So we proposed an artificial emotion that receives emotional stimulus, analyzes what emotion will be generated, controls various emotions by a personality and time, and exports a current emotion. To visualize and to test an artificial emotion, We made a scrolling shooter game which has two characters who have a different personality each other. And we applied an artificial emotion to that game, modified it to be able to change status as emotions. To estimate a satisfaction of a artificial emotion for a scrolling-shooter game, we made up a question to two groups-one has people who likes a scrolling shooter game, the other has people who doesn't.

In the market of First Person Shooter (FPS) games, Massively Multi-player Online FPS games (MMOFPS) like 'PlanetSide 2' have been popular recently. Dead reckoning has been widely used in order to mitigate the network traffic overload for the game server with hundreds or thousands of people. This paper proposes the efficient analytical method to calculate the tolerable threshold angle of moving direction, which is one of the most important factors for character status updating when dead reckoning is used in MMOFPS games. The experimental results with game testers shows that the proposed method minimizes the position error for character moving and provides natural direction updates of characters.

This paper aims at providing a shooter game interface which enhances the game's realism by recognizing user's hand gestures using the Leap Motion. In this paper, we implemented the functions such as shooting, moving, viewpoint change, and zoom in/out, which are necessary in shooter games, and confirmed through user test that the game interface using familiar and intuitive hand gestures is superior to the conventional mouse/keyboard in terms of ease-to-manipulation, interest, extendability, and so on. Specifically, the user satisfaction index(1~5) was 3.02 on average when using the mouse/keyboard interface and 3.57 on average when using the proposed hand gesture interface.

Predicting the user's reaction to the game at the stage of developing the game is important because it is related to the popularity of the game. In this paper, we propose a system that can collect and analyze game user's biometric information in a non-invasive way. To this end, we developed a mouse with skin conductance, pressure, gyroscope, and accelerometer sensor using Arduino. In order to verify the usefulness of this system, the subject was experimented with playing the first person shooter game with this mouse. We analyzed the gameplay videos recorded during Blizzard's 'OverWatch' and the bio-information collected from various sensors in the mouse.

Video games are an alternative channel for public health authorities constantly striving to reach target audiences and make positive changes. The objective of this research is to address effectiveness of health games as a health promotion technology for anti-smoking communication. This study tested the impact of advertising message types and voice-over relative to anti-smoking persuasion. By using commercial-level custom-made first person shooter (FPS) games, two experimental studies demonstrated usefulness of applying health games to change a player's attitude towards smoking. In particular, an interactive in-game message with a persuasive voice over was the most effective method to change targets' attitude towards smoking. Findings of our research offer meaningful insight on health promotion research and provide possible directions for future anti-smoking communication using health games.

The Unreal Engine is a free game engine developed by Epic Games. In this paper, we propose a First Person Shooter (FPS) game development using free Unreal Development Kit. The merit of Unreal engine provide a hight degree of portability, and it is a tool used by many game developers today, supporting a multitude of platforms on personal computers and many video game consoles with free toolkit. But it is required high-performance PC to develop game. This toolkit doe s not high-quality computer programming skill, just possible to develop FPS game easily.

Serious game played with a computer in accordance with specific rules, that uses entertainment to further government or corporate training, education, health, public policy, and strategic communication objectives. The main goal of a serious game is usually to train or educate users while giving them an enjoyable experience. Serous games are video games with serious purposes such as teaching or training and whose principal aim is education. The major characteristics of serious games involve pedagogy which are all of the activities that educate, train, or instruct the player. Other characteristics of serious games are that they use entertainment principles, creativity and technology to build games that carry out serious purposes. This study is to introduce a serious game for the military training and to describe the elements of game design for developing it.

Enterprises that develop online games have to deploy supporting infrastructures, including hardware and bandwidth resources, in order to provide a good service to users. First Person Shooter games generate high rates of small UDP packets from the client to the server, so the overhead is significant. This work analyzes a method that saves bandwidth, by the addition of a local agent which queues packets, compresses headers and uses a tunnel to send a number of packets within a multiplexed packet. The behavior of the system has been studied, showing that significant bandwidth savings can be achieved. For certain titles, up to 38% of the bandwidth can be saved for IPv4. This percentage increases to 54% for IPv6, as this protocol has a bigger overhead. The cost of these bandwidth savings is the addition of a new delay, which has an upper bound that can be modified. So there is a tradeoff: the greater the added delays, the greater the bandwidth savings. Significant reductions in the amounts of packets per second generated can also be obtained. Tests have been deployed in an emulated scenario matching an access network, showing that if the number of players is big enough, the added delays can be acceptable in terms of user experience.

The purpose of this study is to identify online-game players' desire in cheating programs through Rene Girard's theory of mimetic desire. Cheating programs disrupts the magic circle of the game with denying the lusory attitude that players should have. The cheating players' desires do not go directly to victory, but are mediated by a virtual 'model player' which the rules of the game imply. They are internally mediated, so there is constant conflict in the play. Cheating players' desire to enhance skills by technology is defined as a false desire for transhuman.

슈팅게임은 플레이어에게 두 가지 목표를 제시한다. 하나는 겉으로 드러난 목적으로 게임의 보스를 처치하여 엔딩을 보는 것이며 다른 하나는 플레이어에게 도전하고자 하는 심리를 자극하는 것으로 게임의 패턴을 파악하고 적응하여 최단시간 내에 클리어하는 것이다. 하지만 플레이어의 게임에 대한 흥미는 슈팅게임의 이동 패턴에 적응하는 순간부터 감소하게 되고 또 다른 패턴을 찾아 다른 게임으로 떠나게 된다. 본 연구는 사용자에게 주어지는 패턴을 유전자 알고리즘을 이용해 다양화하는 방법을 새로이 제안한다. 제안된 시스템을 통하여 게임 디자이너는 적은 양의 디자인으로 다양한 패턴을 쉽게 얻을 수 있다. 이는 최적의 패턴을 위한 밸런스 테스트 기간을 단축시키며, 플레이어에게 다양한 패턴을 제공하여 게임의 수명을 연장하는데 도움이 될 수 있다.
