  • This study defined the pre-elderly as middle age people from 50 to 59. Because it is difficult to produce a design to satisfy the pre-elderly without deeply understanding them, their financial and physical characteristics and persona-based scenario method was studied. An experimental study about persona based scenario method was conducted, and as a result, the types of personas found were as follows: 1) Users enjoy the same games online and offline. 2) Users enjoy playing alone on the computer. 3) Users prefer games that end quickly with win or loss. Writing the situation scenario for each type, the pre-elderly's problems and needs occurring while they play web board games were obtained. The obtained user requests were as follows: users would like the level of difficulty to be simpler in the game of baduk; users wanted unlimited credit and refrainment from using English words in go-Stop; and there were simple comments about game screen design.

  • 최근 게임 산업에서는 게임을 인공지능적인 측면으로 접근하는 방식 중 하나로 인공감정을 주목하고 있다. 인공감정은 감정자극과 감정, 그리고 감정의 표현 방식이라는 총 3가지 기본요소로 이루어져 있다. 본 연구에서는 인공감정을 사람들에게 꾸준하게 인지도가 상승하고 있는 캐주얼 게임에 적용시켜 보았다. 캐주얼 게임은 다른 게임들에 비해 게임 속에서 감정을 느낄 수 있는 환경요소가 한정적이고, 표현할 수 있는 감정이 적어 인공감정에 대한 플레이어의 반응을 실험하기에 적합한 게임 장르이다. 본 연구에서는 쉽게 제작 가능한 버튼 클릭 방식의 캐주얼 게임을 만들었다. 그리고 게임에 플레이어의 행동을 통해 감정적 영향을 받는 인공감정이 적용된 게임 에이전트를 제작했다.

  • 유전자 알고리즘은 문제 크기가 커짐에 따라 해집합이 폭발적으로 늘어나 최적해를 찾기 힘든 최적화 문제에 주로 적용되는 알고리즘으로, 최근에는 게임에서의 경로찾기, 인공지능 및 레벨디자인 문제에 많이 적용되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 퍼즐게임에서의 레벨디자인 문제의 해법으로 유전자 알고리즘의 적용 방법을 제안한다. 본 논문에서 적용한 퍼즐게임은 주어진 그림에 도형 조각을 가능한 빠른 시간 내에 맞추는 게임으로, 스테이지가 진행됨에 따라 높은 난이도의 퍼즐이 나타나도록 하는 것이 중요하다. 제안된 알고리즘을 통해 퍼즐게임의 유의미한 레벨 조절이 가능함을 확인할 수 있었다.

  • This thesis mainly studies the impact of short-term memory in VR tour games on users. The thesis is based on VR tour games and short-term memory, using the literature research method, the practical research method, and the investigation method. First, the author designs and makes VR tour games on the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, and then conducts a questionnaire survey and designs a control experiment. The experiment explores the differences of the short-term memory level of individuals between the normal environment and the VR tour game environment. It verifies whether the influential hypothesis proposed by the research is correct. Research conclusions show that: VR tour games have an impact on short-term memory. Compared with the normal environment, the subjects have better performance in the VR tour game mode and can maintain a high short-term memory level for a longer time. Its conclusions should promote the cultural propaganda of scenic spots and provide theoretical support for tourists' short-term memory of scenic spots culture.

  • Recently, to make game gotten out of negative perception of game addiction and gradually established as an immersion-centric and ositive and new game culture of the digital era from a culture perspective, the necessity of development of game composed of various materials has been emerging. In other words, the important part to make the environment of game industry which is growing into a higher value-added business expanded in a short space of time as the base culture together with the public in cultural aspects is the development of game material which enables more various objects to approach besides the development of material focused on profit. Above all things, it is the easily accessible material through fusion sith the diverse contents by using elements of interaction, function, system which game itself has. In this connection, this study suggested design approach process ti fuse the material of positive function into game and also proposed the development case ay each level.

  • The 3D game graphic technology has become an important factor in the contents field with the game contents development. In particular, game character technology provides a realistic technique and visual pleasure, as well as an intermediate step in the immersion of the game in which the game might create an optical illusion that enables the player to enjoy heroic adventure in the game. The high expression level of characters in 3D games is a key factor in the development process, with details and carefulness of the character setting work [3]. In this paper, we propose a character representative technique applied to mobile games using mathematical model of radiosity energy, spectral radiance model, and ray tracing model method using 3D unity game engine with sensible AI algorithm for game implementation. As a practical application to the game contents, it was found that the projection of the surface in the rendering process and the game simulation might change according to the lighting condition of the game content environment, so that the high quality of game characters was simulated.

  • From several commercialized games the technique of changing facial expressions is imported, and a design method of a game character for the player's empathy is expected to be diversified in the future. In this paper, as a design method of a game character for the player's empathy, this makes walking motion for the game character applied with 'human-emotion' factors as statistics variation of a game character in RPG genre. After this paper implements analyzed emotions of human facial expression and walking motions applied with emotion in examples of character animation theory, this paper divides walking motion applied with human-emotion factors into 8 types through relationship to statistics factors in RPG genre. And then these are applied to a knight character, which has the most similarity with human's physical feature of the game characters in RPG genre, and makes walking motion as variable statistics. As a game player controls the game character applied with 'human-emotion' factors, the effect of the player's empathy about the game character becomes higher, and the level of immersion in game play is also expected to increase.

  • This paper analyzed maximized the tension not by functional restriction but by psychological response inducement to form the tension of the horror game from the point of space time view. In order that, We arranged three major situations inducing the tension in the horror game and prepared space time analysis base. Pure fiction time of game itself is applied on game time excluding the time creating the cut-scene and the game space is organized with various combination of three space types. This analysis result can help horror game design by discovering the relationship between space time structure and tension forming of the horror game. These analysis results allow us to find guidelines for the time and space design of horror games that can be flexibly linked to game events and contexts by controlling the player's dynamic/static tension and temporary/continuous tension.

  • This paper aims to design Game Rendering Engine for real-time 3D online games. Previous, in order to raise rendering speed, BSP tree was used to partitioned space in Quake Game Engine. A game engine is required to develop for rapidly escalating of 3D online games in Korea. too. Currently rendering time is saved with the hardware accelerator which is working on the high-level computer system. On the other hand, a game engine is needed to save rendering time for users with low-level computer system. Therefore, a game rendering engine is which reduces rendering time by PVS look-up table using Empty space BSP tree designed and implemented in this paper

  • The Management of Game Money in online game is considered as a crucial factor for successful game business as well as balancing game economy. The generation and flow of game money have a strong relationship with game contents, entertainment factors, game planning and level design. This paper explores online game economy in various ways especially the matter about managing & controlling game money in this context through theoretical and practical perspectives. It also examines how this management makes an effect on 'Free to Pay' policy and Sales revenue. Finally, this paper draws conclusions about the Management of Game Money which can be considered to be practically useful for game development and management. I hope that the study helps further studies and researches and can be served as a foundation regarding the issue.
