(AR) technology on player immersion and interaction in mobile games. The research examines how AR, which overlays digital content onto the physical environment, enhances gameplay by providing more interactive, immersive, and contextually rich experiences. Drawing on theories of presence, immersion, and user experience, the paper investigates how AR-based games like Pokémon GO and Ingress engage players in real-world exploration, socialization, and competition. The study also considers the challenges of implementing AR in mobile games, including hardware limitations, spatial awareness, and player safety, and provides recommendations for developers seeking to optimize AR experiences for mobile game audiences.</p> <a href="https://blog-515627534313.mit-edu.top/post/3789625401" class="post-author d-flex align-items-center"> <div class="author-pic"> <img src="https://x.mit-edu.top/static/images/user/5.jpg" alt="Explainable AI for Transparent Decision-Making in Game Systems" title="Explainable AI for Transparent Decision-Making in Game Systems" class="lazyload"> </div> <div class="text"> <strong>Amanda Evans</strong> <span>2025-02-01 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-515627534313.mit-edu.top/post/7652349018"> <img src="https://x.mit-edu.top/static/images/post/12.jpg" alt="Procedural Generation of Modular Game Levels Using Constraint Programming" title="Procedural Generation of Modular Game Levels Using Constraint Programming" class="img-fluid lazyload"> </a> </div> <div class="content"> <div class="post-meta mb-3"> <a href="https://blog-7652349018.mit-edu.top/post/7652349018/" target="_blank"> <span class="date">2025-02-01</span> </a> </div> <h2 class="heading"><a href="https://blog-515627534313.mit-edu.top/post/7652349018">Procedural Generation of Modular Game Levels Using Constraint Programming</a></h2> <p class="info">Esports has risen as a global phenomenon, transforming skilled gamers into celebrated athletes.
