Game Development
Summary
There are majorly two genres of games. Games can be categorized as a strategy or action games. Although there is no fine distinction between the two, the classification is based on physical and mental decisions that the players have to make. Strategy games involve the players making fast and spontaneous decisions achieved through experience gained when playing these games. The physique that the characters that the players choose to be in the games compose the action attribute of the games. Most games are set in battle arenas with varied characteristics. The game environments are developed in such a way that there is no room for time-wasting once a game has started. The past decade has seen several intuitive games come to existence. Most of the gaming platforms allow for multiplayer gaming and keep the identities of the players anonymous. This is possible through player profiling features where a player can build custom profiles for use in gaming. Several games available are free whereas others charge a subscription fee.
Introduction
There has been a tremendous reduction in the number of hours people spend exercising outdoors. Lockdowns have been imposed in several countries owing to the Covid-19 pandemic. Many people are looking for new recreation activities. The best choice they have is online gaming. Several games have been developed in the past few years. Most of them are preferred by many players as seen by the large numbers that are engaged in online playing. These games have been developed by different companies. However, it is noticeable that most players are interested in action games. The following is a report on the most popular games when they were released and the companies that developed them. The report also details the gameplay setups for each of the games.
Research
One of the most popular online games is PlayerUnknowns BattleGrounds. The game was released in 2018 and has over 50 million online players. The game was developed by PUBG Corporation () (Krafton, 2021). The game allows player versus player or players can team up and fight as teams. It is an action game where players parachute into an island and find weapons, start killing opponents while avoiding getting killed. The last man or team left standing is declared the winner of the round. There are a few features that are implemented in the game to make it fun. First, killed players can be looted of their weapons, second, areas on the map with better weaponry are booby-trapped hence becoming high-risk areas for the players(Harbour, 2006). Areas on the map with red markings are bombed areas. One other interesting feature is the shrinking nature of the map which results in the reduction of the safe area. Any player caught out of the safe zone has their life span reduced and eventually gets eliminated if they don’t get to a safe zone in time. Shrinking the safe area also serves to bring the fighters into eventual contact where they have to fight to find a winner. The game has PC, Xbox as well as mobile versions.
Another popular game is Apex Legends released in 2019. It has an online player base of more than 50 million. It was developed by Respawn Entertainment (). The game setup is on an island where players group into twenty 3-player groups or two 30-player groups, find weapons, and defeat each other in combat. The combat area shrinks and those who find themselves outside the safe zone are eliminated. A winner is declared when the points earned for a group are 3 and are 2 points ahead of the other group. The game is available for Microsoft Windows, Nintendo Switch, play station 4, and Xbox One. Plans are underway to have mobile versions for android and iOS users.
Minecraft is another popular game developed by Mojang (). It was released in 2019. It has over 90 million online users and is regarded as the best-selling video game of all time. The game setup is in a blocky procedurally generated three-dimensional world containing virtually infinite terrain. Players build earthworks using raw materials they discover as they move through the terrain. The players can select game modes which include survival and creative modes. Players also fight mobs (computer-controlled) and can as well compete with other players.
Fortnite Battle Royale is also among popular games. The game was developed by Epic Games () and released in 2017. Early versions were released for Microsoft Windows, macOS, Xbox One, and Play Station 4. The game starts with 100 players skydiving into an island and finding weapons to use in defending themselves. Players can play alone or in groups of 2, 3, or 4. The play area constricts with time with the unsafe zones called storm inflicting damage on the players. If the player does not get to a safe zone, the storm gets the better of them and are eliminated from the battle. The last live player or group wins the match. Its game modes include Battle Lab and Party Royale.
League of Legends game was developed by Riot Games () and released in 2009. The game is available for Microsoft Windows and macOS. Two teams of 5-players battle out in combat. Each team has a designated territory to defend. Each player controls a champion which is a custom fighting skillset differing from all the other players in the battle. Champions become stronger when they collect experience points and gold. A team wins when they infiltrate their opponents half and destroy their Nexus.
Conclusion
The most popular games are strategy games or their subgenres. In all the above-discussed games, player’s autonomous decision-making skills have a high significance in the outcomes of the characters they are using. Due to the limited time that players have to make a decision, they promote faster information processing and response(Harbour, 2006). All companies that are involved in the development of these games acknowledge that incredible steps have been made in technology and are aligning themselves to fit in and maximize their customer coverage. The companies have considered the development of portable versions of the games for use on portable handheld devices such as mobile phones (both android and iOS).
