As the technology evolved, this type of game can nowadays be played in different types of devices. There is still few RTS games that can be played with more than one different device. This document presents the solution to design and create a RTS Game that is playable on both per- sonal computers and mobile devices. The game conceived on this project uses HTML5 and JavaScript as programming languages and is playable in multiplayer mode. Multiple players compete between themselves in 1 versus 1 game matches. This game also contains the 4X elements present in the traditional RTS games (”eXplore, eXpand, eXploit and eXterminate”). Keywords RTS, Multiplayer game, Phaser.io, Client-Server networking, Cross-platform. iii Resumo O genero´ de video jogos que e´ conhecido como Estrategia´ em tempo real (RTS) teve varios´ estados de evoluc¸ao˜ desde o in´ıcio da sua criac¸ao.˜ A` media que a tecnologia foi evoluindo este tipo de jogo pode hoje em dia ser jogado em diferentes tipos de dispositivos. Existem ainda poucos jogos RTS que podem ser jogados em mais que um dispositivo. Este documento apresenta a soluc¸ao˜ em desenhar e criar um jogo RTS que e´ jogavel´ tanto em computadores pessoais como em dispositivos moveis.´ Este jogo usa as linguagens de programac¸ao˜ HTML5 e Javascript e e´ jogavel´ em modo multi-jogador. Multiplos´ jogadores competem entre si em jogos de modo 1 contra 1. Posteriormente este jogo contem´ os elementos 4X presentes nos jogos RTS tradicionais (”eXplore, eXpand, eXploit and eXterminate”).

VANDERBILT JOURNAL OF ENTERTAINMENT & TECHNOLOGY LAW VOLUME 18 SPRING 2016 NUMBER 3 Invisible Labor, Invisible Play: Online Gold Farming and the Boundary Between Jobs and Games Julian Dibbell ABSTRACT When does work become play and play become work? Courts have considered the question in a variety of economic contexts, from student athletes seeking recognition as employees to professional blackjack players seeking to be treated by casinos just like casual players. Here, this question is applied to a relatively novel context: that of online gold farming, a gray-market industry in which wage-earning workers, largely based in China, are paid to play fantasy massively multiplayer online games (MMOs) that reward them with virtual items that their employers sell for profit to the same games' casual players.

  • Towards Procedural Map and Character Generation for the MOBA Game Genre
    Ingeniería y Ciencia ISSN:1794-9165 | ISSN-e: 2256-4314 ing. cienc., vol. 11, no. 22, pp. 95–119, julio-diciembre. 2015. http://www.eafit.edu.co/ingciencia This article is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 by Towards Procedural Map and Character Generation for the MOBA Game Genre Alejandro Cannizzo1 and Esmitt Ramírez2 Received: 15-12-2014 | Accepted: 13-03-2015 | Online: 31-07-2015 MSC:68U05 | PACS:89.20.Ff doi:10.17230/ingciencia.11.22.5 Abstract In this paper, we present an approach to create assets using procedural algorithms in maps generation and dynamic adaptation of characters for a MOBA video game, preserving the balancing feature to players. Maps are created based on offering equal chances of winning or losing for both teams. Also, a character adaptation system is developed which allows changing the attributes of players in real-time according to their behaviour, always maintaining the game balanced. Our tests show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms to establish the adequate values in a MOBA video game.

  • Non-Serious Serious Games
    Press Start Non-Serious Serious Games Non-Serious Serious Games Matthew Hudson Toshiba Design Center Abstract Serious games have been shown to promote behavioural change and impart skills to players, and non-serious games have proven to have numerous benefits. This paper argues that non-serious digital games played in a ‘clan’ or online community setting can lead to similar real world benefits to serious games. This paper reports the outcomes from an ethnographic study and the analysis of user generated data from an online gaming clan. The outcomes support previous research which shows that non-serious games can be a setting for improved social well- being, second language learning, and self-esteem/confidence building. In addition this paper presents the novel results that play within online game communities can impart benefits to players, such as treating a fear of public speaking. This paper ultimately argues that communities of Gamers impart ‘serious’ benefits to their members.

  • Nordic Game Is a Great Way to Do This
    2 Igloos inc. / Carcajou Games / Triple Boris 2 Igloos is the result of a joint venture between Carcajou Games and Triple Boris. We decided to use the complementary strengths of both studios to create the best team needed to create this project. Once a Tale reimagines the classic tale Hansel & Gretel, with a twist. As you explore the magical forest you will discover that it is inhabited by many characters from other tales as well. Using real handmade puppets and real miniature terrains which are then 3D scanned to create a palpable, fantastic world, we are making an experience that blurs the line between video game and stop motion animated film. With a great story and stunning visuals, we want to create something truly special. Having just finished our prototype this spring, we have already been finalists for the Ubisoft Indie Serie and the Eidos Innovation Program. We want to validate our concept with the European market and Nordic Game is a great way to do this. We are looking for Publishers that yearn for great stories and games that have a deeper meaning. 2Dogs Games Ltd. Destiny’s Sword is a broad-appeal Living-Narrative Graphic Adventure where every choice matters. Players lead a squad of intergalactic peacekeepers, navigating the fallout of war and life under extreme circumstances, while exploring a breath-taking and immersive world of living, breathing, hand-painted artwork. Destiny’s Sword is filled with endless choices and unlimited possibilities—we’re taking interactive storytelling to new heights with our proprietary Insight Engine AI technology. This intricate psychology simulation provides every character with a diverse personality, backstory and desires, allowing them to respond and develop in an incredibly human fashion—generating remarkable player engagement and emotional investment, while ensuring that every playthrough is unique.

COM Java Game Developer Job Interview Preparation Guide. Question # 1 What is the 'Platform independence 'properties of java? Answer:- The very essence of the platform independence of Java lies in the way the code is stored, parsed and compiled - bytecode. Since these bytecodes run on any system irrespective of the underlying operating system, Java truly is a platform-independent programming language. Read More Answers. Question # 2 Tell us what will you bring to the team? Answer:- I will bring a large amount of support to the team, I endeavour to make sure my team reaches the goal they so desperately need. I feel that adding me to the team will bring our performance up a notch. Read More Answers. Question # 3 Tell us is Game Development Subcontracted? Answer:- I was having a conversation with someone who believed that components of a games code where subcontracted out to programmers in different countries where it would be cheaper, then assembled by the local company. I understand that people often use pre-built engines but I would think that making the actual game would require people to work closely in the same studio. Read More Answers. Question # 4 Tell me is There A Portal Dedicated To Html5 Games? Answer:- Just to get something straight; by "portal", I mean a website that frequently publishes a certain type of games, has a blog, some articles, maybe some tutorials and so on. All of these things are not required (except the game publishing part, of course), for example, I consider Miniclip to be a flash game portal.
