Microsoft released motion sensing device named Kinnect on early 2010, which is available for developing Xbox 360 game and entertainment software. Also many third party libraries and applications are developed for Kinnect. In this paper, we studied and developed guitar rhythm game on Kinnect using three sensor units on it. Rhythm game is the most popular game genre for many game devices including PC, console device, and smart phone. The main reasons for their popularity depends on their simplicity, short learning time and physical activity with rhythms. We developed the game screen and layout on DirectX 11, also we used OpenNI library for recognize physical activity of gamer's body and fingers, and OpenGL for body gestures on the game.

This paper describes the development of a racing game with three-dimensional computer graphics as one of web-based game contents. Client user using web can access and run java applet program with download of Java Bytecode with the independence of hardware system. It consists of graphic user interface module, initial space generation module, event handler module, and thread control module. It uses 2-D linked list data structure for the 3-D graphic objects that are located in three-dimensional space for high-speed object searching and sorting. It enhances the dynamic object moving and viewing in three-dimensional space. We can use the developed racing game to inform game users of information for an advertisement like tourism information, and can apply the proposed 3-D drawing technology to 3-D game graphic engine core.

In order for the game industry to grasp the initiative of the global industry, it is time to positively need storytelling that can move the emotions of gamers over graphical appearance. Also, in the era of the 4th industrial revolution where the point of contact between virtual and reality spreads widely, it seems that the game character industry will rapidly emerge. Therefore, the author recognizes the importance of the character industry in the future, and based on the accumulated game research, he has identified 10 elements necessary for character storytelling. The ten elements are as follows. Design of life, design of race, design of occupation, design of PC and NPC, design of monster, design of personality, design of conflict, design of protagonist, design of external image, design of birth and death.

Game and Animation are considered as two different fields. The definition of animation is 'moving picture' and game is a kind of animation which can be controlled by users. Actually, many principles of animation are applied to the production of games, and are even more emphasized in the mobile game contents which are becoming popular these days because of the characteristics of mobile devices such as small screen size. In this paper, we study on the application of the 12 principles of animation through the making of a mobile 3D game called 'Fly to the music' and that game is going to be serviced in late 2006 by SK Telecom. Moreover, we studied the differences between 3d mobile game animation and ordinary animation.

We present a new method of extracting foreground object from background image for vision-based game interface. Background Subtraction is an important preprocessing step for extracting the features of tracking objects. The image is divided into the cells where the Local Histogram with Gaussian kernel is computed and compared with the corresponding one using Bhattacharyya distance measure. The histogram-based method is partially robust against illumination change, noise and small moving objects in background. We propose a Multi-Scaled Integral Histogram approach for noise suppression and fast computation.

We studied the creation of fractal images with polygonal rotation symmetry. As in Loocke's method[13] we start with IFS of affine functions that create polygonal fractals and extends the IFS by adding functions that create Julia sets instead of adding square root functions. The resulting images are rotationally symmetric and Julia set shaped. Also we can improve fractal images by modifying probabilistic IFS algorithm, and we suggest a method of deforming Julia set by changing exponent value.

In line with the increase in consumer demand for mobile games, game companies face stiff competition. For a more successful marketing strategy, many game companies actively adopt Cross Promotion. The Cross Promotion marketing strategy in the mobile game is regarded as a low cost and high efficiency marketing method because the game companies provide new experiences to game users by utilizing existing game infrastructure and absorbing current users of game companies. Despite the advantages of Cross Promotion, there has been little practical study on the relationship between Cross Promotion and mobile game acceptance. Accordingly, the aim of this study was to determine the influential factors of Cross Promotion on the acceptance of mobile games. After reviewing previous research, a structural model was established, a survey was performed and the model was analyzed. The managerial implications are suggested along with the concluding remarks.

In SNG, actual users enter virtual space with their real identity. They can enter the game space easily and rapidly from the real space and can get out of it easily. For such free crossing between the virtual and the real, every character, space image and game play has symbolic reality. While paying attention to the game play process of SNG such symbolic reality is constructed into the virtual world in the game, this study intends to identify that it follows an order of simulacre by Baudrillard. As the result of analysis, it shows that SNG promotes easy entering the game space while reflecting the reality to the most in the opening part of game play. And, gradually concealing reality, it reaches a pure simulacre step while covering up and distorting absence of the reality. If we compare it with the direct entering the pure similacre step in the existing Online games like MMORPG, we can know that such a game play process according to the similacre order may be the distinct game characteristic of SNG.

본 연구에서는 디지털 콘텐츠와 물리적 미디어가 유기적으로 결합할 수 있는 가능성을 모색하고자, 입출력 일체화 개체인 'I/O 셀(Cell)'과 그 집합체인 '텐저블 게임 콘솔(Tangible Game Console)'을 개발하였다. I/O 셀은 여러 종류의 센서와 액츄에이터가 하나의 물리적 노드 내에 통합되어 있는 개체로, 이 I/O 셀 다수를 집적하면 다양한 크기와 용도의 엔터테인먼트 미디어를 구성하는 것이 가능하다. 그 중 하나로 개발된 텐저블 게임 콘솔은 일종의 센서-액츄에이터 집합체로 셀들 사이의 연계를 통해 다양한 물리적 정보를 인식하고 표현할 수 있다. 텐저블 게임 콘솔은 기존 게임 콘텐츠의 주요한 표현 수단이었던 이미지와 텍스트 정보 대신에 물리적 정보를 통해 게임 콘텐츠를 구성하며, 조작대상과 조작수단이 일체화되어 있고, 또한 음악, 퍼즐, 액션 등 다양한 장르의 게임 콘텐츠가 적용 가능하다는 특징을 가지고 있다. 텐저블 게임 콘솔에서는 불, 바람, 물, 생명체 등의 물리적 현상을 형상/움직임/소리/빛 등을 통해 재현하며, 사용자는 이를 때리기/바람불기/흔들기/기울이기 등의 직접적인 조작을 통해 체험할 수 있다. 또한 물리적인 상호작용 과정이 일정한 게임 규칙을 가지고 구성되어 있어 지속성 있는 놀이 경험을 제공한다. 본 연구에서는 텐저블 게임 콘솔의 콘텐츠로 음악, 액션, 대전게임 등을 개발하였으며, 이 콘텐츠들의 놀이경험을 평가함으로써, 텐저블 게임 콘솔의 발전 가능성을 확인하였다.
