Exergame Analysis : Creating an exergame and evaluating game components and motion movement correlation

Karlsson, Isidor, Liang, Xiao January 2023 (has links)
As technology progresses, people start engaging in sedentary behaviour more and could raise the risk of getting health deficits such as cardiovascular diseases, cancer, and type-2 diabetes. Recent studies on how to prevent sedentary behaviour is to incorporate physical activity through exergaming. While many exergames have been on health aspects and how to design exergames, not much has been on the impact of certain game designs and game rules. Our paper will research how to design and create a fun 2Dplatform exergame and keep or increase the total movement as the player gets better at the game. The exergame used some normal game design and some known design strategies from experienced exergame designers. The data were then taken from the authors playing the exergame and the results showed a positive increase in total movement when they had a higher score. In-game components such as durational power ups had some higher and lower total movement per second than without, but in general the total movement increased the more power ups were picked up. We believe picking up power ups and power ups that motivates the player to move more, yields in more total movement

This examination is based on the concept of performative time drawn from the analysis of prospects that blend the study of performances of Richard Schechner and Victor Turner, with time trials established in studies and reflections of Henri Bergson, Marcel Proust, Reinhart Kosellec and Paul Ricoeur, in conjunction with the practical discussions emerged in the production of Beckett presentation, as well as the dialectic of the human condition and time established by Beckett in that piece. Performers, time and human nature dialogues, construction, perception and representation of theatrical production are made. All these actions will be closely articulated in the development of this research in order to understand and explain this process, and as such proposals reflections approximate the studies inherent Cultural Performances, the work of the Máskara and reflections and concepts proposed by playwright in the theatrical text Waiting for Godot. / O objetivo da presente comunicação é apresentar e analisar a representação do espetáculo teatral Esperando Godot, de Samuel Beckett, promovido pelo Máskara – Núcleo Transdisciplinar de Pesquisa em Teatro, Dança e Performance, da Escola de Música e Artes Cênicas (EMAC), da Universidade Federal de Goiás (UFG), no ano de 2005. Este exame parte do conceito de Tempo Performático elaborado a partir das análises de perspectivas que mesclam os estudos das performances de Richard Schechner e Victor Turner, com os ensaios temporais estabelecidos nos estudos e reflexões de Henri Bergson, Marcel Proust, Reinhart Kosellec e Paul Ricoeur, em conjunto com as práticas discussões emergidas na produção do espetáculo beckettiano, assim como da dialética da condição humana e temporal estabelecida por Beckett na referida peça. São constituídos diálogos performáticos, temporais e de natureza humana, na construção, percepção e representação dessa montagem teatral. Todas essas ações serão minuciosamente articuladas no desenvolvimento dessa pesquisa, com o intuito de entender e explanar esse processo, e, como essas reflexões propostas aproximam-se dos estudos inerentes às Performances Culturais, do trabalho desenvolvido pelo Máskara e das reflexões e conceitos proposto pelo dramaturgo no texto teatral Esperando Godot.

En attendant Godot : une étude sur les conditions humaines dans le théâtre de l’absurde

Arvidson, Paula January 2012 (has links)
Samuel Beckett (1906-1989), irlandais d’expression française et anglaise, peut être considéré comme un des écrivains modernistes du XXe siècle les plus influents. Son nom est surtout associé au théâtre de l’absurde, un style de théâtre des années 50 inspiré des surréalistes et des dadaïstes, dont l’origine était le traumatisme de la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Parmi les pièces absurdes les plus importantes se trouve En attendant Godot de Beckett, une pièce connue et jouée dans le monde entier. Ce que Samuel Beckett nous montre dans En attendant Godot est évidemment l’absurdité de la vie, et l’absurdité de ce qui n’est pas encore venu ou déterminé. Le point central dans cette pièce est – malgré l’absence d’histoire, de sens et de but – sa représentation de la condition humaine : les relations, la communication, l’inquiétude et, bien sûr, l’attente. Le but de se mémoire sera d’examiner de quelle manière Beckett révèle son image de la condition humaine à travers d’une pièce rompant avec toute convention théâtrale classique.

A study of fools : Lear's fool in Shakespeare's King Lear and Vladimir and Estragon in Beckett's Waiting for Godot

Jesus, Leila Vieira de January 2012 (has links)
O foco dessa dissertação é analisar o papel, as características, e a presença dos bobos ao longo da história, focando em sua constante aparição no teatro. Os personagens principais da minha análise serão o Bobo, na peça Rei Lear de William Shakespeare, e Vladimir e Estragon, na peça Esperando Godot de Samuel Beckett. Na análise desses personagens, discuto semelhanças entre os autores, que já foram notadas por críticos como Martin Esslin, Jan Kott, e Northrop Frye, e mostro como os personagens de Beckett são similares aos bobos de Shakespeare. Bobos, no teatro, frequentemente agem como mediadores entre o palco e a plateia, guiando os espectadores e falando verdades. O Bobo de Lear diz verdades criticando seu mestre e o lembrando das decisões erradas que ele tomou; os personagens em Esperando Godot dizem verdades sobre a falta de sentido de nossas vidas e, mais importante, nos mostram essa falta de sentido no decorrer da peça. Em relação à linguagem, o uso dela pelos bobos é diferente do uso dos outros personagens porque eles a manipulam para criar desentendimentos e jogos de palavras. No teatro de Shakespeare, a principal razão para esse uso peculiar da linguagem é que os bobos querem mostrar sua sagacidade; no teatro de Beckett, eles usam uma linguagem sem sentido para mostrar que ela está quebrada e que tentativas de comunicação são inúteis. Através das ações e diálogos dos bobos de Beckett em Esperando Godot, podemos ver que a vida é absurda e que vivemos em um mundo cheio de incertezas. Apesar de personagens bobos geralmente serem vistos como superficiais e insignificantes, especialmente nas peças de Shakespeare, eles são extremamente importantes no teatro e têm uma maneira única de interagir com os outros personagens e com o público. / The focus of this thesis is to analyze the role, characteristics, and presence of fools throughout history, focusing on their recurrence in the theater. The characters I will focus on are Lear's Fool in William Shakespeare's King Lear, and Vladimir and Estragon in Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot, discussing similarities between the two authors, which have been mentioned by critics such as Martin Esslin, Jan Kott and Northrop Frye, and showing how Beckett's characters are similar to Shakespearean fools. Fools in the theater often act as mediators between the stage and the audience, guiding spectators and telling truths. Lear's Fool tells truths by criticizing his master and reminding him of the wrong decisions he has made; the characters in Waiting for Godot tell truths about the meaninglessness of life and, most importantly, show us this meaninglessness throughout the play. The use of language by fools is different from that of other characters because they manipulate it to create misunderstandings and word games. In Shakespeare's theater, the main reason for this peculiar use of language is that fools want to show their wit; in Beckett's theater, the characters use nonsensical language to show that language has broken down and that attempts at communication are pointless. Through the actions and dialogues of Beckett's fools in Waiting for Godot, we can see that life is absurd and that we live in a world full of uncertainties. In spite of the fact that fool characters are often seen as shallow and insignificant, especially in Shakespeare's theater, they are of extreme importance in the theater and have a unique manner of interacting with other characters and with the audience.

Omplacering av resurser i Tower Defense Spel / Relocation of resources in Tower Defense Games

Silverhult, Primus January 2021 (has links)
Detta arbete gick ut på att skapa ett stort tower defense spel i 3D där spelaren kan omplacera sina torn. Tanken med omplacering är att det leder till att spelaren blir mer aktiv, även när spelet håller på länge. Spelet spelades av olika personer och det mättes till vilken grad omplacering skedde och vilken påverkan omplacering har på spelarnas framgång. Resultaten visar på att spelare använder sig omplacering under hela spelets gång. Ur resultaten och datan som mättes gick det inte att med säkerhet avgöra vilken påverkan omplacering har på spelarnas framgång. Detta lämnar rum för vidare utveckling där omplacering är klart essentiell för att spelarna ska spela framgångsrikt.

GoDraw : Creative Coding i Godot Game Engine

Boodé, Philip January 2020 (has links)
Creative Coding är en form av kreativt lärande genom programmering, men det är idag fortfarande inte väl använt som arbetssätt för att lära ut programmering. Idag finns Processing, som är både ett verktyg och ett eget språk, som aktivt jobbar för att göra Creative Coding lättillgängligt och enkelt. Det har använts vid universitet och visat goda resultat, men idag finns inte många alternativ när det kommer till Creative Coding. Godot är en grafikmotor med stor kapacitet och möjligheten att kunna tillhandahålla samma funktion som Processing gör, men få studier av detta har tidigare genomförts.  För att undersöka om Godot kan vara ett alternativ till Processing så har denna studie byggt en prototyp för att utvärdera rimligheten att använda Godot för Creative Coding genom prestanda tester och hur mycket som svår kod kan abstraheras för en lättare användning. Resultaten visar att Godot kan prestera på god nivå vid generering av höga antal partiklar och har större möjlighet att simulera gravitation och mindre partiklar för att skapa mer spännande organiska bilder än Processing. Däremot är Processing fortfarande bättre när det gäller responstider och fluiditet i de tester som har utförts. Stöd för Creative Coding kan byggas in i en Godot applikation, men med större svårigheter och med en stor tidsåtgång.
