Game graphics provide players with a sense of immersion, leading to active participation. This paper aims to analyze the mythological meaning for symbolic design of game skill visual effects that reproduce the narrative and the worldview of games borrowing myths. The research method classified the visual effect image into a symbol of the form of a universal archetype representation and a symbol of color expressing the narrative in the game, and analyzed it by applying Roland Barthes' semiological scheme. Through this study, it was possible to analyze the meaning of visual effects as a mythical meaning that can be universally sympathized and an implicit meaning that symbolizes the narrative of the game. The symbolic expression of the visual effect, which reproduces the narrative of the game reflecting the myth, can induce players to engage and participate, and the design direction was intended to provide the visual effect to have a unique symbolism that reflects the game's mythical worldview of the game.

In this paper, by using Visual C # XNA game development application relates to a technique. This paper proposes the design and an implement effective algorithms Effect Based on XNA Game Development Environment. Existing in the development of the game using Directx C++ game developers, game development, it is necessary to position a lot of the source code. Particularly effective effect was much difficulty in the processing section. However, to eliminate this difficulty was proposed in the paper. The possibility of developing the game in XNA-based group. For the superiority of the proposed paper and the comparative analysis of existing games were designed for the development of the game was. The future study will be the design of various effects and events which give more immersive game implementation.

최근 온라인 게임계는 복고열풍이 화두다. 지난 2000년 3D 온라인 게임이 처음 등장한 이후 온라인게임 시장의 주류가 3D 게임으 로 바뀌면서 2D 기반의 온라인게임들은 점차 그 자취를 감추기 시작했다. 그러나 지난 해 말부터 이런 변화에 역행하는 게임들이 하나 둘씩 등장하기 시작했다. 세련되고 실감나는 그래픽과 화려한 이펙트, 커다란 스케일 등을 포기하고 게임들이 다시 2D와 횡스크롤 진행 등과 같은 3D 게임 이전의 과거로 회귀하고 있는 것이다. 2D 게임의 향수와 예전 오락실에서 즐기던 추억을 동시에 갖추고 있는 것으로 평가받고 있는 던전앤파이터를 분석했다.

본 논문에서는 청강문화산업대학교 게임전공 2014학년도 졸업 작품인 '사이코메트리(Psychometry)' 게임 내에서 등장하는 연출용 이펙트 사운드에 따른 플레이어의 반응을 테스트하고 그 결과를 도출한다. 이 테스트 결과에 따라 플레이어가 게임을 플레이하면서 가장 자극을 받는 이펙트 사운드가 무엇이며, 그 이유를 연구하고 추후 개발에 적용하여 게임 내에서 플레이어에게 사운드를 가장 효과적으로, 영향력 있게 전달할 수 있도록 게임을 설계하는 것을 목표로 한다.

본 논문에서는 유아부터 노인까지 간단한 조작법으로 쉽게 즐길 수 있는 게임을 만들고자 한다. Space Bar를 주로 이용하는 One-Button방식의 게임으로 연타를 하는 미니게임들이지만 '순발력'과 '정확도'를 필요로 하는 게임이다. 다른 게임들은 화려한 이펙트와 다양한 조작법으로 흥미를 이끌어 내기는 하지만 저연령층과 고연령층이 다가서기엔 힘든 부분이 있다. 그래서 간단한 조작으로 게임을 즐길 수 있는 게임을 만들어 보고자 했다. 친근감 있는 시나리오와 캐릭터를 통해 남녀노소 누구나 쉽게 접할 수 있고, 오락적인 요소만 있는 것이 아니라 게임을 통한 성취감과 경쟁심을 유도함으로서 게임에 더욱 몰입 할 수 있다.

This study deals with how computer game affects spatial-temporal capability of game users. Focusing on college students, this study shows almost the same results as 'Mozart effect' by Gordon Shaw's previously famous study for music on spatial-temporal capability. Additionally, in comparison to music and animation, on-line racing game has more positive influence on a specific spatial-temporal capability.

Good reviews that Half-Life: Alyx received created a turning point for the vitalization of the VR market with an uncertain future due to the absence of a revenue model together with the increased sales of VR equipment. Based on previous studies, this study categorized the characteristics of VR games according to graphs, first-person system, interface, controller, interaction technology, sound and stories. The analysis results show that the seven elements corresponded with "interactions" and "virtual images," which represent the completion level of games as part of VR components, and were connected to one another, which led to the proposal of an upper-rank concept "presence" to put them together. "Immersiveness," which represents users' emotions as part of VR components, was analyzed with the immersion theory to assign tasks of proper difficulty level for users' abilities. In the research process, the Delphi technique and FGI were administered to a panel of 15 experts to ensure objectivity. Finally, "presence" and "immersiveness" are characteristics in proportion to each other and can be valid concepts in future analysis of VR games as well as Half-Life: Alyx, which led to the proposal a new concept framework called 'presence effects' by combining the two words.

This study conducted empirical analysis through user experience and questionnaire to find out whether the technical and contextual elements of the 'COVID-19 SABER' VR game produced and developed through initial research affect the improvement of the user's visual immersion. As a result first, the hypotheses regarding the resolution, viewing angle, effect, and design quality of the technical elements were accepted, but the hypotheses regarding the frame rate and the brightness of the lighting were rejected. Next, as for the hypothesis of the contextual elements, the hypothesis about background, directing, color and texture, interest and fun was adopted, and the hypothesis about storytelling was rejected. In summary, it was concluded that in order to increase the visual immersion of VR games, technical elements resolution, viewing angle, effect, design quality, contextual elements background, directing, color and texture, interest and fun must be designed and produced. The results of this study are expected to serve as basic data for the production and development of VR games that can induce and improve user's visual immersion in the future.

Most games based on PCs or consoles at present show vivid special effects and brilliance sceneries. However, the other games running on mobiles and portable devices can not show magnificent scenes because of low hardware specifications such as slow CPU, old graphics card and battery capacity. These games relatively prefer light and casual contents that do not need tremendous calculation. It is very important to keep minimum of game graphics quality in those games. Thus this research presents the new possibility of variable indexed color palettes to overcome the low hardware capacities.
