understand how group identity and collective behavior are formed and manifested within multiplayer mobile games. The research investigates the ways in which players form alliances, establish group norms, and engage in cooperative or competitive behaviors. By analyzing case studies of popular multiplayer mobile games, the paper explores the role of ingroups and outgroups, social influence, and group polarization within game environments. It also examines the psychological effects of online social interaction in gaming communities, discussing how mobile games foster both prosocial behavior and toxic interactions within groups.</p> <a href="https://blog-8201469735.mit-edu.top/post/5483170629" class="post-author d-flex align-items-center"> <div class="author-pic"> <img src="https://x.mit-edu.top/static/images/user/18.jpg" alt="Enhancing Mobility Through Gesture-Based Controls in AR Games" title="Enhancing Mobility Through Gesture-Based Controls in AR Games" class="lazyload"> </div> <div class="text"> <strong>George Baker</strong> <span>2025-01-31 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-8201469735.mit-edu.top/post/8970316524"> <img src="https://x.mit-edu.top/static/images/post/11.jpg" alt="Neuroaesthetics of Game Design: Enhancing Immersion Through Visual and Auditory Stimuli" title="Neuroaesthetics of Game Design: Enhancing Immersion Through Visual and Auditory Stimuli" class="img-fluid lazyload"> </a> </div> <div class="content"> <div class="post-meta mb-3"> <a href="https://blog-8970316524.mit-edu.top/post/8970316524/" target="_blank"> <span class="date">2025-01-31</span> </a> </div> <h2 class="heading"><a href="https://blog-8201469735.mit-edu.top/post/8970316524">Neuroaesthetics of Game Design: Enhancing Immersion Through Visual and Auditory Stimuli</a></h2> <p class="info">This paper examines the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in the design of mobile games, focusing on how AI enables adaptive game mechanics that adjust to a player’s behavior.
