With the recent popularity of smartphones, many games are being developed on mobile-based platforms. As a result, it has brought about many changes in the way mobile game is developed. Especially mobile platforms, which are divided into Android and IOS, can now be applied to each platform without additional development through cross-platform. This means that it is necessary to move away from the method of developing each using separate development tools and implement the development process through cross-platform unique features. In this paper, we studied various methods to increase the productivity and quality of game development for the development of mobile games, and a formal framework considering the development process was developed. The framework consists of process, development domain, and platform support parts, each playing its own role. Items of the detailed framework must be reflected so that detailed response data for efficient application of game development can be established in actual mobile game development. The framework was developed by approaching it from two domains, the need for a framework and the framework implementation of key item response data.

This research is the qualitative research on signals that mobile game users use to solve asymmetric information of game quality. Based on signal theory, we gathered data using Netnography. The findings are four types of signals for mobile games: platform-based signals with high/low participation rate of consumers, game developing company-based signals with high/low participation rate of consumers. The features that mobile gamers make decisions using signals are the following. First, ranking and the number of download have initial standard. Second, game marketing platform can be one of signals. Finally, the preference of signals is different with the goals and using pattern of games.

Recently the unprecedented progress of Android platform and Google Play has brought more opportunities for individual mobile game developers. When playing an Android 3D game, users can accidentally hit HOME Key or BACK Key or receive an incoming message. Subsequently, another screen will appear on top and make the game application lose focus, or the operating system pause that game. These interruption events may also lead to the loss of game information or the game runs out of user control if that game cannot catch interruption events itself and resume at the exact time. As same as other mobile platforms, Android platform also provides Activity Lifecycle methods to help the game application control interruption problems. However, these methods are not adequate to solve all the interruption events. By implementing ANDCube game, we examine most of the possible interruption cases and propose some solutions to help Android game developers avoid some common interruption cases. Concurrently, we show the ways how a game application can catch all unavoidable interruption events and effectively resume from interruption to obtain a high quality game.

Recently, the concept of mobile content service has changed from providing unilaterally contents for single-device to providing same contents for multi-device. This service should be able to provide diverse contents for multi-devices without platform and specification of multi-device. In this study, we propose a bridge technique of heterogeneous smart platform supporting social immersive game. It is possible to access social immersive game by using a multi-platform bridge. To achieve this, we explain techniques of device connection and data transmission between heterogeneous devices using server-client structure and UPnP. It provides an immersive game environment for multi-user, which is able to play in a public place using big screen.

Cross platform game has brought about the expansion of game market, which results in technology innovation overcoming the limit of game consumption. The new model integrates both off and online game services. Gamers can now enjoy game service regardless of age, time, and space. If the technology evolution model of digital contents like cross-platform game engine can provide contents for several platform at the same time, the interactive service can be utilized into maximum level. It is also necessary to allocate, switch data as well as to innovate the transmission technology of data according to each platform. Providing the same contents for several platform as many as possible can be the most suitable strategy to enhance the efficiency and profits. However if the interactive service can be accomplished completely, the development of data switching technology and distribution should be made. To be a leader in the next digital contents market, one should develop the network engine technology which can embody the optimization of consumption in the interactive network service.

To get a better profit, standalone mobile game market shifts network-based mobile game. Currently, most of the game platform are separated into mobile to mobile, desktop to desktop, and console to console. Multi platform network game has a diverse problems including consistency control, object management technique, and bandwidth inconsistency. n this paper, we will introduce a multi-platform arcade game "Push-Push", which is played on desktop to mobile environment. The game guarantees realtime play between heterogeneous machine users and game item sharing between two platforms. e will focus n the issues of the 3rd generation multi platform games and propose some techniques or solving these problems. Our server database is implemented on MS SQL database, also the desktop programming tool is Visual Basic, and WIPI(Wireless Internet Platform or Interoperability) as a mobile platform.

As expectations about success of smart phones that install Android, an open mobile platform which was developed by Google, are increasing, the development of applications based on the Android has attracted a lot of interest. Especially, game applications have been well received by users. In this paper, we develop an application based on the Android for curling which was adopted as a competitive sport in the Winter Olympic Games. Curling is a sport game played by two teams. The rules of the game are simple, but it is an intelligent one that requires various strategies for victory. In this paper, the curling game based on the Android provides functions, such as pitching, sweeping, collision, and foul handling, that are required in real curling game by using technologies, such as touch screen or accelerometer sensor.

Game software planning is divided into initial game software planning and detailed game software planning. Technique, design, marketing should be considered in initial game software planning. Especially, technical considerations, platform and game engine and sewer construction and sewer architecture should have effect on development cost and time. So, game software designer should choose technical consideration which is suitable for purpose of game software planning. In this paper, we researched technical considerations in initial game software planning, focusing on platform, game engine, game service, network infrastructure.

The digital multi-sided platform has led the growth of industries. Accelerating this growth, generativity allowed innovation based on boundary-less modularity. Online games are a rich source of research but most of the research is dedicated in examining only the online game itself. However, there is a growing need to understand online games in an ecosystem level for a new phase of evolution is starting based on generativity. With generativity, online game users now make new graphics and quest that can be added and shared to the already existing game environment. The ecosystem is moving towards finding an amicable multi-sided distribution platform for these user generated game contents. Preliminary data suggest the possibility of actual connection between generativity and users' game engagement. Interviews and surveys will be prepared to find out the details of the possible relationship and how the ecosystem will shape accordingly.
