This paper describes a strategy to integrate game programming into the computer science curriculum. It is a well known challenge that nationally computer science/computer engineering enrollment is at its lowest in at least a decade. Many approaches have been implemented during past few years and game programming is one of those showing positive feedbacks. In this paper utilizing the game progra...

Computer game worlds are dynamic and operate in realtime. Any agent in such a world must utilize techniques that can deal with these environmental factors. Additionally, to advance past the current state-of-the-art, computer game agents must display intelligent goalorientated behaviour. Traditional planners, whilst ful lling the need to generate intelligent, goal-orientated behaviour, fail dram...

The article aimed to determine the specificity of computer game discourse, its features, key linguistic characteristics, and communicative features. methodology included analysis discourse materials, in particular, dictionary articles, texts electronic messages, conferences, as well recordings fragments spoken language users games. specific feature is selective combination typical for other typ...

In many computer games, narrative is a core component, with the game centering on an unfolding, interactive storyline which both motivates and is driven by the game-play. For larger games, however, narrative size and complexity makes analysis difficult, and while formal approaches to assessing game narratives and identifying flaws have been proposed, scalability remains a barrier to practical u...

While ten years ago a single game designer simply needed passion, motivation, programming knowledge and a lot of time to develop his own computer game, the production process for modern software title has evolved to a complex software engineering project, developed by a team of several dozen specialists funded by a multi-million dollar investment. In fact, most founders of gaming companies are ...
