This paper focuses on developing a first-person 3D game to provide extreme fear to players through realistic camera direction utilizing the features of action cameras. As a new camera production technique, we introduce perspective distortion using a wide-angle lens and camera shake when moving to provide higher immersion than existing games. The theme of the game is horror room escape, and the player starts with a firearm, but in order to overcome the concern that the game's difficulty is low due to the use of firearms, the player is asked to control the use of firearms by imposing burdens such as chasing monsters and reducing the number of magazines. The significance of this paper is that we developed a new type of 3D game that maximizes the fear effect of players through realistic production.

We investigated the feasibility of utilizing Large Language Models (LLMs) to perform text-based games without training on game data in advance. We adopted ChatGPT-3.5 and its state-of-the-art, ChatGPT-4, as the systems that implemented LLM. In addition, we added the persistent memory feature proposed in this paper to ChatGPT-4 to create three game player agents. We used Zork, one of the most famous text-based games, to see if the agents could navigate through complex locations, gather information, and solve puzzles. The results showed that the agent with persistent memory had the widest range of exploration and the best score among the three agents. However, all three agents were limited in solving puzzles, indicating that LLM is vulnerable to problems that require multi-level reasoning. Nevertheless, the proposed agent was still able to visit 37.3% of the total locations and collect all the items in the locations it visited, demonstrating the potential of LLM.

Recently, various contents set in the Josun Dynasty have emerged. However, there is a growing number of hanboks that do not preserve the basic original form of hanbok, such as hanboks that deviate significantly from the form of hanboks. Therefore, in this study, a system was created and implemented in the game to express various colors and patterns of hanbok using the DALL-E API in this game by examining the basic hanbok form of hanbok through literature review. However, despite the fact that the results are inconsistent depending on the quality of the Generative AI service and the limitations of not passing through the historical evidence of traditional hanbok experts, it is meaningful to present a system that uses the creativity of users to create a design that can enhance the aesthetics of traditional hanbok. In future research, we want to investigate users' preferences and develop a system that can create an image that fits them when clicking the interface.

Mobile games have taken 80% of the market sales in smart device application industry that is highly regarded as one of the fast growing pool of cultural content after the distribution of smart devices. One of the most successful mobile games after the smart device's appearance is . created by Gung-ho Online entertainment under Softbank Japan, has gained the sales revenue of one trillion dollars after its release in 2012, just after one year of its exposure to the market. The game also has been the top rank by Worldwide Mobile Game Revenues for 2years achieving 40 million downloads worldwide in 2015. However, there is no place for a Korean game in world mobile game sales ranks yet. Even though the mobile game industry has been expanding every year, Korean games are losing its places in the market. Therefore, the analysis of a successful game such as is vital for diagnosing Korea's game content and its lack of direction. This study utilizes K. Masanao's Matrix for Creating Profit System for analyzing 's factors for its success. First, the game has incorporated puzzle and RPG contents for creating a new genre, which led various age groups to play the game. Second, the developers have applied 'limited time' in-game festivals and collaborations between the game and famous contents such as God Festival and Character Draw system to increase the profit revenue. Third, the company communicated with on and off line players to seek their needs for developing the game's better development. Consequently, the three success factors of deduced from this study not only reflect the related researches and academic values, but also contribute for the search in finding better ways to developing game contents for Korean mobile game industry.

Game engines have the advantage of enabling efficient content production, such as reducing development time, with minimal visual quality guarantees and support for multi-platforms. Recently, game engines have provided various functions that can easily, quickly, and effectively produce immersive content using virtual reality (VR) HMD. Therefore, this study conducts a comparative study on the development environment in VR content production using Oculus Quest 2 HMD, focusing on Unity and Unreal game engines, which are widely used in the content production industry, including games. First, we compare the basic setup process of building a development environment using Oculus Quest 2 HMD and a dedicated controller based on a VR template project that includes the minimum functions and settings provided by each engine. Next, we present a simple experience environment that can interact in a virtual environment and compare the development environment to use a dedicated controller and the process of building a development environment that directly utilizes hands through the hand tracking function provided by Oculus Quest 2. Through this process, we will understand the basic process of building a VR development environment, and at the same time, we will check the characteristics and differences of the engine and use it as a research that can be applied to various immersive content production.

The objective of this study is to find out how reality game shows, the relatively new television genre, produce a sense of reality and what differences we can find from the reality they produce in compared to that of traditional reality television shows. The researchers anaylized , aired in 2013and 2014 by tvN, with focus on the show's studio setting and characters in the show. During this process, the 'game elements' and 'reality factor' were considered to be the key words. Finally, the reality produces was examined from two aspects: the production and reception. As a result, we found that the reality it produces is more than just a imitation of the real world. It shuttles between the game world and real world, and encourages audiences to recognize the plural realities in our postmodern society. We hope this study stimulates further researches on reality game show genre, which had rarely gained academic attention.

The purpose of our study was to figure out the generation gap between adolescents group and parents group in the sub-dimensions of perceptions on online games, such as harmfulness and benefits of online games, impacts and values of online games, parent-adolescent relationship with regard to online game activities, and government regulation of online games. To this end, we conducted online survey targeting middle or high school students and parents with children attending middle or high school regarding the perceptions on online games. As a result, we identified the similarities and differences between adolescents and parents generation in the sub-dimensions of perceptions on online games. Especially, we found significant differences between adolescents and parents generation in the perceptions on violence and sociality of online games. This result shows that the generation gap in these two factors may cause the conflict between parents and adolescents with regard to online game activities. Also, we ascertained the significant generation gap in the perception on parent-adolescent relationship with regard to online game activities. This result implies that parent-adolescent relationship in the developmental process of adolescents in real life was reflected in the perception on parent-adolescent relationship with regard to online game activities. Our contributions are in specifying the generation gap in the sub-dimensions of the perceptions on online games and in identifying the main causes of the conflict between parents group and adolescent group with regard to online game activities.

기존에 게임 업계에서는 데이터베이스 관리를 위해 중앙에 집중된 서버 관리 시스템을 사용해 왔다. 때문에 계정 도용 등의 부정사용이나 관리 상의 사고 등에 취약한 모습을 보여 왔다. 현재는 사고 발생한 경우 주로 서버 전체를 복구하는 등의 조치를 위하여 문제를 보완해 왔는데, 백업 과정에서 문제가 발생하면 복구 불가능한 손실이 발생할 수밖에 없다. 이에 본 연구에서는 앞서 말한 사고로 인해 데이터가 손실되더라도, 손실된 데이터를 복구할 방법으로 블록체인 기술을 활용해보고자 하였다. 블록체인 기술을 활용하여 게임 시스템 속 데이터베이스의 일부를 분산 저장하는 방법을 실험해 봄으로서 앞서 제기한 문제들을 해결해 보고자 한다.
