This study was conducted as follows. First, the game character design elements have been arranged so that the player's personality can be reflected in the character customizing. Second, the importance of design elements in mobile games and video games was derived through AHP. Third, through the difference in importance, the direction of character customizing improvement was suggested. External appearance in mobile games and the action in video games is evaluated as overwhelmingly important. Therefore, it is necessary to diversify the appearance in mobile games and the action in video games.

This paper present a design and implementation of a Contents Management System (CMS) to be integrated into a game that uses a Digital Game-based Learning (DGBL) approach for helping tourists learn about tourism spots as a part of the Package Tour Application. In terms of design, this paper shows a system architecture that consists of a database to store the game's content such as tourism spot information, score and question configuration, score history, et cetera, a web application to manage the content and a Rest API to delivers the content to the mobile game. Meanwhile, in terms of implementation, MySQL database and PHP programming language are used. Moreover, a time response performance evaluation is conducted which resulted in between 0.77 s to 1.4 s from CMS to the database. Once successfully integrated with the game, the CMS will allow the game to be played on multiple tours simultaneously, without having to rebuild the game for every package tour group.

The mobile device users have been increasing significantly because of the development of Social network system and network technologies. Because of this popularity, there are various games in market based on the combination of the mobile device with social networks. It will be the potential market within the mobile games with the growth of popularity in various users. This paper proposes the possibilities for the development of mobile game in educational contents through the case study of the popular mobile games.

In the 4^th Industrial age, mobile games are a highly competitive but highly profitable industry, with hundreds of games per day. To produce a successful mobile game, it is necessary to understand the mobile environment and consumers in the mobile era, and a study that can provide implications for the importance of various factors is needed. The purpose of this study is to explore the in- and out-of-game factors that influence the success of mobile games and to examine the relationship between these factors and customer satisfaction and loyalty. As a result, the game platform's system quality and service quality had a positive effect on the evaluation, and the price policy did not have a significant effect on the evaluation. Also in the flow factor, goal and interaction (relationship) had a positive effect on the flow, and skill or challenge did not have a significant effect. The effects of flow and platform evaluation on customer loyalty were all positively affected. First. Companies must derive customer opinions and actions about the game through continuous interaction with customers. Second, if the game gives customers the proper goals and functions to enable the interaction between users, more successful games can be developed.

The current available recommendation systems for mobile games have a couple of problems. First, there is no knowing whether they make a pattern recommendation for games that actual users prefer or for games that they are simply interested in. It is also impossible to know the subjective preference of users in a direct manner. An AHP(Analytic Hierarchy Process)-based recommendation system for mobile games was thus developed to reflect the subjective preference of users directly, but it had its own problem since the degree of preference could vary among users in spite of the same scale for their preferable items. In an effort to solve those problems, this study implemented a recommendation system for mobile games by applying triangular fuzzy numbers of the Fuzzy-AHP technique and the independence of evaluation items in the Bayesian Network. The findings show that the proposed recommendation system recorded the highest accuracy of recommendation results and the highest level of user satisfaction.

Today, Educational serious games are occupying a large portion of the serious game market but there is a lack of the quality evaluation systems for providing useful quality evaluation information about educational serious game to user or developer. Although the existing metadata management system for serious game is developed, the system had not provided a function to manage the quality evaluation information for educational serious game. Therefor the development of quality evaluation management system of educational serious game is a very important challenge. We proposed design of the system for managing a metadata and a quality evaluation for educational serious game. The advantage of our system is that the system provide a lot of reliable useful information for general users and developers, and support an easy and convenient tool to manage the metadata and quality information to managers.

This paper contains the implementation of a game as a feature of a package tour management application with the Digital Game-based Learning approach that helps tourists learn about tourism spots. The game is written in Java language for an Android smartphone that is designed to be integrated with Content Management System (CMS) to manage the game's contents and assets. The game contains one tourism spots introductory level and five quiz game levels with each having a reward (points) and punishment (time penalty) system, then summed the results to obtain the total score from all levels. The total score will determine a tourist's performance and be listed on an online leaderboard to increase competitiveness among tourists. The conducted performance evaluation of the game shows satisfactory results of 0.9 seconds of response time from the database to the game. Implementing the game presented in this paper will potentially reduce the burden of the tour guide and increase the efficiency of managing the tour group.

최근 모바일 게임에 있어서 중요한 이슈는 게임상에서 존재하는 물체들이 사실감과 생동감을 유지하면서도 프로그램의 속도 감소 문제를 발생시키지 않는 방안을 찾는 것이다. 본 논문이 제시하는 내용은 모바일 환경에서의 지능형 물리엔진 아키텍쳐에 대한 것으로 물리엔진으로 구현 한 게임 안의 환경을 인지하고 수집한 수치를 이용, 학습하여 사용자가 컨트롤하는 게임 내의 물체가 최적화 된 움직임을 보일 수 있도록 하는 데 목표를 두고 있다. 이를 위해 모바일 환경에 적합하도록 구현된 물리엔진으로 자동차 주행 시스템 환경 내에서 속성을 추출, 인공지능 모듈에 입력하여 연산량이 비교적 적은 베이지안 네트워크 알고리즘을 통해 분석하며 이를 평가한다.

An important application domain for online services is an interactive, multi-player game. In recent, many increase of users that use on-line services through networks have caused a heavy load to the server. In this paper, we propose a MMORPG(Massively Multi-player Online Role Playing Game) distributed game server using flayer-Cell. Our method provides efficient solution of a MMORPG distributed game server for large numbers of users. It is shown through the experiments that our method outperforms existing methods in terms of memory utilization rate and processing speed.

This paper describes a motivation-based hierarchical behavior planning framework to allow autonomous agents to select adaptive actions in simulation game environments. The combined behavior planning system is formed by four levels of specification, which are motivation extraction, goal list generation, action list determination and optimization. Our model increases the complexity of virtual human behavior planning by adding motivation with sudden and cumulative attributes. The motivation selection by probability distribution allows NPC to make multiple decisions in certain situations in order to embody realistic virtual humans. Hierarchical goal tree enhances the effective reactivity. Optimizing for potential actions provides NPC with safe and satisfying actions to adapt to the virtual environment. A restaurant simulation game was used to elucidate the mechanism of the framework.
