According to 2008 game white paper, it is reported that both the game developer's and the gamer's dissatisfactions about a game design have been increased recently. It is required to enhance the style of the development work flow and the communication manners to reduce such dissatisfactions. This paper suggests a method which can be used not only to simplify the development work flow but also to provide a satisfactory communication skill between the developer and the users. By speculating the mental recognition model, a knowledge representation model based on UML(Unified Modeling language) has been devised. Our approach can be successfully employed to conceive the user feedback and to articulate the original game design elements, thus provides a more concrete and flexible design process.

Literary works are used as materials for various cultural contents including plays, movies, cartoons, and games. According to the results of the previous study, it is possible to create a game story that is plausible and universal even if the game storytelling is carried out using the elements extracted from the source data. It is expected that the analysis of the transformed contents of literary works will be analyzed. In this paper, we analyze the scenario of "Mabinogi" using literary works in domestic online games using Greimas' s actant model. The analyzed results are compared with Hamlet, which is the source of the source, and analyzed the structure, age, background, heroine, goal, theme. This study confirms the change of the narrative when the literature is contents, and the analysis is meaningful in analyzing the transformational patterns of game scenarios based on literary works. I hope that it will contribute to the study of various methods of storytelling by various materials of literature works.

The procedural generation algorithm is an algorithm that automatically generates a content to be used in a game by repeatedly executing a series of rules. As the size of the game increases, the amount of content used in the game increases. Accordingly, artificial intelligence research is actively conducted to automatically generate game contents using game artificial intelligence such as procedural generation. In this paper, we propose an algorithm to create 3D game world using procedural generation. The proposed algorithm generates a two-dimensional contour in which the path is naturally connected using Perlin-Noise whose noise is gradually changed. A three-dimensional Height-Map is created based on the generated two-dimensional contour lines. The generated Height-Map show that the shape of the map is normal and that the player is able to move around all the sections as in the game world created by hand. In the future, we will improve the performance of algorithms and apply them to game.

Recently, mobile games are developed as the various genre and form with the hardware performance improvement and communication network speed increase of the mobile phone. But it shows the limit of the game material to be developed, because the mobile game has to play by using only the keypad handing of the mobile phone. In this research, 'Flip On / Off interface' and 'Microphone interface' were developed in order to utilize the physical device of the mobile phone as the game interface. 'Flip On / Off interface' and 'Microphone interface' have the advantage that there is no need to purchase a device as an additional interface with utilizing the hardware of the mobile phone itself and the progressing of a game is smooth in comparison with the keypad method of the pre-existence mobile game because the interface waiting time for a call response is short. Moreover, by applying to a commercializing game, the developed interface tests, we confirmed an availability at the commercialization inspection standards on mobile phone without the heap memory deficiency phenomenon to be smooth of an operation. Furthermore, in the result of usability evaluation accessability, reliability, and aesthetics were rated as 'high'. The results of this research reveal that the interface environment of the mobile game limited to a keypad will be able to be made with diversification.

This study is a study on the development of board games using local cultural contents. As a prior study related to this study, basic research on board game development, research on cultural products based on cultural heritage, and storytelling development research using local cultural and tourism resources were considered. Among them, for the main purpose of board games and development process, discussions were conducted on the research methodology of Lee Dae-woong and Oh Seung-taek (2004). As a result, it was possible to successfully proceed with planning meetings, proposal preparation, board game design, board game 3D graphic production process, and prototype development. What is peculiar is that characters (dried persimmons, strawberries, jujube, and salted seafood) containing Nonsan's unique regional characteristics were searched and utilized. In addition, major cultural heritages such as Donamseowon Confucian Academy and Gwanchoksa Temple, designated as Nonsan-si cultural properties, were combined with important treasure hunt contents of board games to enhance interest and education at the same time. The theme of this paper, Nonsan, Finding Lost Treasure, is a new educational alternative that can solve the problems of computer games, and has the advantage of having the nature of community leisure play, not individual play. Based on this board game development research in the future, we intend to expect the results of game production using cultural elements from other regions.

In this paper appears that in this extremely attractive and growing services segment, academics, as well as practitioners, would benefit from investigating the relationships among the players' loyalty, word of mouth and flow, and the impacts of several other key game-related constructs on consumer behavioral intentions. A conceptual framework is proposed and a structural equation model is developed. This paper develops the exploratory LISREL model for identifying the factors affecting the players' loyalty for some specific brand of online games. The concept of flow, feedback, challenge, etc, are all introduced into the model, as the independent variables affecting the loyalty directly and indirectly. Statistical results show that depending upon the types of games, the configuration of structural equation model is a little different from each other, but overall results are very much intuitive in that challenge positively enforces flow, and flow strengthens loyalty. Other interesting results concerning game development strategy are also provided. It is hoped that this result might provide the useful guidelines for developing the successful online game contents. With a better understanding of the players' behavioral intentions, online game developers should be able to make adjustments in their development and marketing plans, providing them with a sustainable advantage over their competition.
