Smart TV has been the most popular communication device since 2010. It is the multi-functional device conjugated a variety of features such as Apps, Web surfing, viewing VOD and so on. However, the contents and development tools for smart TV are still relatively small and research for game contents development tools is also insufficient. In this study, we are to design and develop a framework for developers to make Smart TV game contents easily. The STGF (Smart TV Game Framework) we developed is made up of 3 managers such as input manager, screen data process manager, and game status process manager. We verified the usefulness of STGF through developing "Pentomiro" App launched commercially in 2013. With STGF development time would be expected to be reduced, because we spend little time in basic development steps such as input, output, and data processing and error correction processing.

Everyone can easily acquire learning materials on web environment that rapidly develops. Because the importance of English education has been emphasized day by day, many English education systems are introduced. However, previous most English education systems support only single user mode, and cannot deal with a newly coined word such as 'WIKIPEDIA'. In order to lead a user's learning ability with interest and enjoyment, this paper propose an online English word game system implementing a 'scrabble' board game. The proposed English word game system has the following characteristics. First, the proposed system supports both single user mode and multi user mode with a virtual user based on artificial intelligence. Second, the proposed system can recognize newly coined words such as 'WIKIPEDIA' by using NEVER Open API dictionary. Third, the proposed system offers familiar user interface so that a user can play the game without any manual. Therefore, it is expected that the proposed system can help users to learn English words with interest and enjoyment.

본 연구는 가상 캐릭터인 3D Pooh 와의 감성 교감이 이루어지는 유아용 감성 교육 게임 개발이 목적이다. Web 카메라를 이용하여 사용자의 위치 정보 및 영역을 검출하고 사용자는 화면에 보이는 가상 공간에 손과 마커를 이용하여 행동을 가하게 된다. 사용자의 행동 입력 방식에 따라 Pooh 의 상태를 나타내는 게이지와 행동의 다양한 변화를 제공하며, 이로써 사용자들이 가상 캐릭터인 3D Pooh 와 인터렉션을 할 수 있도록 제공한다. 기존의 감성 교감 연구 방법 분석 결과 뇌파와 체온 등의 생리신호를 이용한 방법과 사용자의 행동패턴을 분석하는 방법 등이 있으며, 현재는 생리신호를 이용하는 방법이 더 많이 활용되고 있다. 생리신호 측정 시 사용자는 신체에 센서를 착용해야 하므로 착용 부담감과 움직임이 자유롭지 못하다는 단점이 있다. 본 프로그램은 기존 연구의 단점인 센서 착용의 부담감을 줄이고 자유롭고 편리한 인터렉션이 가능하도록 개발하였으며, 직관적인 인터페이스를 기반으로 유아들도 쉽고 편리하게 즐길 수 있도록 구현된 감성 교육 게임이 될 것으로 기대된다. 또한 카메라 이외의 다른 하드웨어 장치 사용을 최소화하여 경제성과 사용 편의성을 동시에 고려한 효율적인 유아용 감성 교육 게임으로 활용될 수 있다.

Since October 2006, number of deliberations of arcade game in Game Rating Board (GRB) annually was more than 1,000 cases except 2007 and 2010. However, these cases excessively handle to deliberate the game rating. Especially, the rating is manually performed thus, hindering the consistency and objectivity of the deliberation. To resolve this problems, we think that the automation of technical deliberation is necessary for arcade game which is needed to have much time for deliberation. The purpose of this study is to identify what the possibility part of automation or what obviously part of automation in the deliberation of game rating. To achieve our research purposes, we conducted in-depth interview with GLI standardization expert in BMM Korea and person in charge for deliberation in game rating board. The interview results show that 12 standardization and 14 automation factors for deliberation in game rating of arcade game. This study will expect bases in game development and promotion in game industry.

The quality of the game can be evaluated by its fun and functional stability. Among them, the quality area for fun is the essence of the game, so it is a very important factor to be considered from the point of view of a game designer. Usually, fun games with high originality and immersion are designed in the early stages of development, such as idea generation and concept setting. At this time, making it possible to verify the fun factor of the game has an important influence on the success of the game. In this study, the case of using PIT technique when teaching fun element design to students who are starting to study game design was introduced and the effect was analyzed. It is expected that the PIT technique will be used more actively in the game design education field for high-quality and fun game design.

In this paper, we developed the device for an interactive game interface using bio signals which were able to recognize user's motion intention using EMG signals and it was applied to the games which need the information of the muscle motion directions. The module for acquiring EMG signals consists of 4-Ch, wrist-motions were defined as up, right, down and left state. The user's intent was recognized through thresholding and comparing signals of each channel. The classification result of the motion directions could control the arrow keys on the keyboard of PC and it was applied on the various games. This proposed game device can be expected to induce an effective exercise with an interesting and enjoyment, and it can use both self-developed or commercial games.

현재 우리나라는 이동통신 무선망 개방, 지상파 및 위성 DMB 서비스 개시 등으로 인하여 모바일 컨텐츠 시장이 본격적으로 성장하고 있으며, 그에 따른 모바일 게임시장도 크게 형성되고 있다[1]. 하지만 모바일 회사 중 몇몇 주요 회사를 제외하고는 그 경쟁이 매우 치열한 상태이다. 우리가 생각하는 모바일 게임의 성공요인은 조작 용이, 짧은 길이, 신선함 다양성, 유인 용이, 일상생활등과 연관성 등이다. 성공요인을 갖추었음에도 불구하고 이용자들이 넓게 눈을 돌리지를 못하고 있다. 그래서 우리는 이용자들에게 아주 친숙하면서도 사용에 용이를 둔 모바일 타자게임을 제작하게 되었다. 물론 기존의 타자게임과는 다른 요소들을 집어넣어서 이용자들에게 흥미와 신선함으로 다가갔다. 그리하여 모바일 게임 영역에서 일정한 기여를 할 수 있기를 기대하고 있다. 나이가 많은 이용자들을 위하여 문자의 친숙함, 익숙함을 제공하여 주는 기능도 구현하였다.

While the period of 40 million smart phone users begins, mobile game has spread and evolved as quick as popularization of smart phone. Therefore, this study is written to help the improvement of a graphic image on a development of a game for a qualitative growth of a game market, and is to suggest a guideline of tone by genres, by measuring image or feeling of game genre targeting game users. As a result of study, more than 50% of adjectives game users wrote by genres corresponded. It means that tone game users prefer is relatively clear. Therefore, the researcher confirmed that it is possible to attempt the standardization of tome about genre, and suggested 3 kinds of tone and brightness of color by genres. The researcher hopes that this result of the study will help smooth color plan on a development of smart phone game, and that more diverse studies will be proceeded for a qualitative growth of a game market arriving at puberty.

Since the birth of the Ethereum in 2015, various decentralized applications (DApp) based on blockchain smart contract technology have appeared. However, CryptoKitty's case showed instability in terms of performance and scalability in real-world service environments. To solve this, a blockchain platform that developed a high transaction per second (TPS) has appeared, but there have been no environments and services to test it. Therefore, this paper intends to design and develop a game that can record the contents of all games on the chain and verify the performance and scalability of the blockchain platform through oversized transactions. The developed game generated a total of 6.3 million blocks and 8.9 million transactions through by 682 and verified the improved performance and scalability of the existing platform. Additionally, the maximum TPS was measured at 1,309 during the test period. In the future, it is expected that performance and scalability can be compared in a realistic environment through the method presented in this paper.

In this paper, a model was devised to change the numerical values that affect the game balance by using Chat-GPT for game balancing. Based on the usability of Chat-GPT shown in several studies and cases using Chat-GPT, Chat-GPT is automated to directly adjust detailed and objective in-game numerical values. In this paper, the format of Chat-GPT responses was consistently adjusted so that the numerical values required for game balancing could be obtained directly from the answers. As an experimental method, it was confirmed that four players autonomously designed the game level through five rounds to adjust the balance. These studies suggest the possibility that games can be produced using Chat-GPT in the future.
