Journal Title: Romanian Journal of Human - Computer Interaction - Year 2010, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
This article is presenting the multiple relationships that could be established between users and electronic games. The paper presents several considerations regarding the main characteristics and the roles of human factor in the context of entertainment applications. We mainly refer to the design of most important game types. Our research includes an original case study – the development of a combative game deployed on the XNA platform –, developed on the basis of discussed aspects and certain interaction design patterns.
