Title
Generating dynamic narratives with real time interactions utilizing mobile technology
Abstract
The popularity of smartphones and other mobile technologies provides unique and exciting opportunities for game developers to create interesting game experiences and simultaneously study how players react and interact to these new environments. By studying and enhancing these new interactive environments and utilizing these technologies, we can break free of traditional game experiences and create newer and more exciting games with the flexibility of mobile devices. This study explores how we expand our idea of what a traditional game should be and poses a newer, fresher look on mobile game play and social connectivity. We have added to the notion of playing a game without actively engaging in it from the foundation of previous research. We have done this in order to build players' unique stories that will allow players to make more meaningful choices throughout their gameplay experience. By offering the player real time choices and active engagement in a mobile game that currently offers none, we expect to increase the levels of enjoyment and usefulness, from both educational and recreational viewpoints.
