<![CDATA[A character plays an important role in game sales on an application store. The first thing people notice when choosing a certain genre of a game on the application store is the character. Character appears in a game visual icon, alongside the name of the game and some stars representing the rating and the number of download. By looking at the game character, people will be able to tell the game genre and type, also the targeted users. Advanced technology might allow a game to develop better but analyzing the game character from its art and design aspect is also needed for it to be successful in the market. This paper will explain character design development and its art and design aspect using constructive method. The analysis can be used for better understanding on how games designers work and come up with the right idea of a game’s characters based on the game’s general idea. ]]>

<![CDATA[The purposes of this research study is to get data of user experience towards mobile game design and the transformation of its interface due to translated language. Most of popular mobile games came from China with their local language and writing system. Chinese alphabetic is appropriate for vertical or horizontal orientation, but English and Indonesian alphabetic are not appropriate with vertical orientation. Ragnarok M: Eternal Love with MMORPG’s genre is the game sample model, originally from China server and now this game is translated into several languages such as English and Bahasa Indonesia. Ragnarok M: Eternal Love’s game developer used a unique method with combined icon and text in order to solve layout’s problem that they encounter when converted in to several languages. We conduct the experiment within 2 period of time, based on 25 participants (gamer), all participants tried user interface from a game model sample. The result confirmed that the display of the UI (user interface) used by the developer team of Ragnarok M: Eternal Love, had demonstrated a good solution in developing a user interface for mobile game, when confronted by fixed layout and forced to adapt to various different language, but it still need some adjustment time to fully understand the function of every button. Keywords : user interface, user experience, language, ragnarok, game mobile ]]>

The beginning of the proper use of gaming technologies for education and training and there is no need for scientific and engineering methods to create games not only as a more realistic simulation of the physical world but to provide experience Effective learning. This document illustrates building up to date Integration of educational principles and game design into a dialogue between them and defining games that can be integrated based on design, entertainment, and educational features. The work follows a drawing tray that forms part of the framing definition and after selecting categories of design templates, before focusing on user interaction modes, from a pedagogical point of view, given its relevance to end users]]>

<![CDATA[Creating an application named ?Mandarin for Newbies? aims to bring in more exposure and accessibility towards the importance of learning Mandarin Language, through the use of technology (Android SDK, Unity, Adobe Photoshop). This is proven to be of importance through the interviewee?s responses regarding the importance and usage of Mandarin as a language. Mandarin for Newbies application aims to provide an alternate and easier way of learning Mandarin language through the use of smartphones, providing an accessible way to learn, in comparison, with the standards way of learning. The uniqueness of this application is taking the learning aspect through the usage of space repetition, which is, a learning method that takes advantage of increasing intervals of time in between subsequent review of previously learned material in order of taking advantage of a psychological spacing effect. All the while, combining it with entertainment, that is a game. This allows the user to learn as they play. Several tests, including compatibility and user acceptance tests were performed to evaluate the prototype. Although the prototype has not been able to cover the whole aspect of learning, the test results shows a satisfactory result in terms of accessibility and basic functionality.]]>

<![CDATA[Lasem is a city on the north coast of Java Island Indonesia. Lasem city is an acculturation between Chinese, Moslem and Javanese culture. Lasem is one of the oldest batik production centers in Java. Batik Lasem need to be preserved because it will extinct due to the lack of the interest from the young generation to preserve the technique or create new motives, as well as continuing manufacturing the Batik Lasem. To increase the awareness and interest of young generation about this culture and products, authors aim to protect this preservation through board games that created for young generation in Indonesia. Authors selected board game as a media to introduce the culture of Lasem because using games as an educational tool provides opportunities for deeper learning (MacKay, 2013). The research started with exploring the heritage culture focusing on batik process and motives, theory of educational games and design theory. The research methodology done through qualitative methods: in-depth interviews, testing board games to the targeted market, literature about games as an educational tool. The objectives of this board game are to create a fun and inspired game for young generation with significant educational value about the culture heritage. This game can be continuing and expanding with other cities in Indonesia and it is very possible to create series of the fun educational games that can tell the beauty of culture that Indonesia has. After several testing processes and designing the board game, the test results in understanding the batik process through game is far more interesting compared to traditional learning method. The idea of simulating technical process through gamification shows a great potential of alternative teaching methodology.]]>
