By analyzing network structures, social interactions, and community dynamics, the paper investigates how mobile games contribute to the creation of virtual social networks that extend beyond gameplay and influence offline relationships. The research also explores the role of mobile games in fostering a sense of belonging and collective identity, while addressing the potential for social exclusion, toxicity, and exploitation within game communities.</p> <a href="https://blog-252626859165.mit-edu.top/post/9851402763" class="post-author d-flex align-items-center"> <div class="author-pic"> <img src="https://x.mit-edu.top/static/images/user/11.jpg" alt="Towards Universal Accessibility: Designing Mobile Games for Players with Cognitive Disabilities" title="Towards Universal Accessibility: Designing Mobile Games for Players with Cognitive Disabilities" class="lazyload"> </div> <div class="text"> <strong>Scott Bennett</strong> <span>2025-02-06 published post</span> </div> </a> </div> </div> </div> <div class="col-lg-12"> <div class="post-entry d-md-flex small-horizontal mb-5"> <div class="me-md-5 thumbnail mb-3 mb-md-0"> <a href="https://blog-252626859165.mit-edu.top/post/6725839401"> <img src="https://x.mit-edu.top/static/images/post/12.jpg" alt="Optimizing Deep Reinforcement Learning Models for Procedural Content Generation in Mobile Games" title="Optimizing Deep Reinforcement Learning Models for Procedural Content Generation in Mobile Games" class="img-fluid lazyload"> </a> </div> <div class="content"> <div class="post-meta mb-3"> <a href="https://blog-6725839401.mit-edu.top/post/6725839401/" target="_blank"> <span class="date">2025-02-06</span> </a> </div> <h2 class="heading"><a href="https://blog-252626859165.mit-edu.top/post/6725839401">Optimizing Deep Reinforcement Learning Models for Procedural Content Generation in Mobile Games</a></h2> <p class="info">This paper applies Cognitive Load Theory (CLT) to the design and analysis of mobile games, focusing on how game mechanics, narrative structures, and visual stimuli impact players' cognitive load during gameplay. The study investigates how high levels of cognitive load can hinder learning outcomes and gameplay performance, especially in complex puzzle or strategy games. By combining cognitive psychology and game design theory, the paper develops a framework for balancing intrinsic, extraneous, and germane cognitive load in mobile game environments. The research offers guidelines for developers to optimize user experiences by enhancing mental performance and reducing cognitive fatigue.</p> <a href="https://blog-252626859165.mit-edu.top/post/6725839401" class="post-author d-flex align-items-center"> <div class="author-pic"> <img src="https://x.mit-edu.top/static/images/user/1.jpg" alt="Optimizing Deep Reinforcement Learning Models for Procedural Content Generation in Mobile Games" title="Optimizing Deep Reinforcement Learning Models for Procedural Content Generation in Mobile Games" class="lazyload"> </div> <div class="text"> <strong>Melissa Collins</strong> <span>2025-02-06 published post</span> </div> </a> </div> </div> </div> <div class="col-lg-12"> <div class="post-entry d-md-flex small-horizontal mb-5"> <div class="me-md-5 thumbnail mb-3 mb-md-0"> <a href="https://blog-252626859165.mit-edu.top/post/7084613925"> <img src="https://x.mit-edu.top/static/images/post/11.jpg" alt="Transcultural Game Narratives: Designing Stories for a Global Audience" title="Transcultural Game Narratives: Designing Stories for a Global Audience" class="img-fluid lazyload"> </a> </div> <div class="content"> <div class="post-meta mb-3"> <a href="https://blog-7084613925.mit-edu.top/post/7084613925/" target="_blank"> <span class="date">2025-02-06</span> </a> </div> <h2 class="heading"><a href="https://blog-252626859165.mit-edu.top/post/7084613925">Transcultural Game Narratives: Designing Stories for a Global Audience</a></h2> <p class="info">This research explores the evolution of game monetization models in mobile games, with a focus on player preferences and developer strategies over time. By examining historical data and trends from the mobile gaming industry, the study identifies key shifts in monetization practices, such as the transition from premium models to free-to-play with in-app purchases (IAP), subscription services, and ad-based monetization. The research also investigates how these shifts have impacted player behavior, including spending habits, game retention, and perceptions of value.
