Obtaining a competitive advantage in today’s business environment generally does not happen of its own accord. With the speed of global economic change, products to market, technology and customer preferences, organizations must light on their feet and be the drivers of change. Given that most businesses deal with the same buyers in defined markets who purchase similar products, gaining this competitive advantage is critical to both thriving and being leaders in their field. To do this, one must drive efficiencies throughout the entire organization while creating a significant point of difference. Yet, inefficiency continues to run rampant and can be found in the often-forgotten pockets of the organization, hampering efficacy at best, leading it out the door at worst. How Efficiency Changes the Game: Developing Lean Operations for Competitive Advantage provides an insightful process for the executive, manager, and business owner, enabling them to discover inefficiencies where least expected, highlighting both the nature of the primary issues and then how to subsequently correct them. This book will assist in developing lean operations in areas such as leadership, marketing, strategy and planning, sales, time management, workflows, finances, and people.

Game development is in crisis—facing bloated budgets, impossible schedules, unmanageable complexity, and death march overtime. It’s no wonder so many development studios are struggling to survive. Fortunately, there is a solution. Scrum and Agile methods are already revolutionizing development outside the game industry. Now, long-time game developer Clinton Keith shows exactly how to successfully apply these methods to the unique challenges of game development. Keith has spent more than fifteen years developing games, seven of them with Scrum and agile methods. Drawing on this unparalleled expertise, he shows how teams can use Scrum to deliver games more efficiently, rapidly, and cost-effectively; craft games that offer more entertainment value; and make life more fulfilling for development teams at the same time. You’ll learn to form successful agile teams that incorporate programmers, producers, artists, testers, and designers—and promote effective collaboration within and beyond those teams, throughout the entire process. From long-range planning to progress tracking and continuous integration, Keith offers dozens of tips, tricks, and solutions—all based firmly in reality and hard-won experience.

Game design is changing. The emergence of service games on PC, mobile and console has created new expectations amongst consumers and requires new techniques from game makers. In The Pyramid of Game Design, Nicholas Lovell identifies and explains the frameworks and techniques you need to deliver fun, profitable games. Using examples of games ranging from modern free-to-play titles to the earliest arcade games, via PC strategy and traditional boxed titles, Lovell shows how game development has evolved, and provides game makers with the tools to evolve with it. Harness the Base, Retention and Superfan Layers to create a powerful Core Loop. Design the player Session to keep players playing while being respectful of their time. Accept that there are few fixed rules: just trade-offs with consequences. Adopt Agile and Lean techniques to "learn what you need you learn" quickly Use analytics, paired with design skills and player feedback, to improve the fun, engagement and profitability of your games. Adapt your marketing techniques to the reality of the service game era Consider the ethics of game design in a rapidly changing world. Lovell shows how service games require all the skills of product game development, and more. He provides a toolset for game makers of all varieties to create fun, profitable games. Filled with practical advice, memorable anecdotes and a wealth of game knowledge, the Pyramid of Game Design is a must-read for all game developers.

Diploma Thesis from the year 2003 in the subject Computer Science - Software, grade: 1,3, University of Applied Sciences - Beuth (Informatik), language: English, abstract: Inhaltsangabe: Abstract: This report describes the development of a class library, designed as a tool to produce twodimensional games while making use of up-to-date 3D technology. The design and implementation of each library component, such as graphic, sound, sprites or collision detection, is described. There is a special focus on collision detection algorithms in a hybrid 2D / 3D environment. The report starts with an introduction which states the reasons behind the project and lists the project's objectives. The main section consists of two parts. In the first part, technology choices, the project time schedule and the development process are discussed. The second part describes the important library classes one by one. The larger sections start with an analytical part, proceed with an implementation description and close with an evaluation regarding the particular class. Finally, the project is reviewed, comparing the outcome to the project plan and the project's overall objectives. A summary is given of what I have learnt in the course of the project, and the report ends with a brief outlook on the project's future possibilities. Although the production of two-dimensional games has gradually phased out over the past few years, there has been a revival movement. Especially with the introduction of more capable hand-held devices, such as palm-tops or mobile phones, old ideas are recycled and ancient games are brought to new life under the label of retro-style'. I thought it would be interesting to develop a tool that enables people to recreate games of the past while making use of up-to-date technology. Another, more personal reason is, that more than a good CV, many companies in the game industry like to see a skill demonstration before they hire. Grown up with a passion for games, I thought

The Desired Dynamics Of Selected Lean Tools And Framework For Effective Design Of Lean Simulation Games written by Nihar Gupta and has been published by this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2016 with Simulation games in education categories.
In recent years, hands-on lean simulation games have been introduced as an effective educational tool. Among them, role-playing simulation games in face-to-face classroom setting are capable of demonstrating effects of lean tools at system's level. Many newly developed games with different lean tools and different settings have been reported in literature. However, literature reveals that there are some limitations (such as ineffective design of the game, fixed number of players, time constraints) that resists the expected outcomes of lean simulation games. Moreover, dynamics of the simulated system was also less discussed in the literature. Without analyzing the system's behavior in advance, simulation games developed by trials might not be able to show the impacts of lean tools effectively or timely, and thus the trainees may not learn the concept in limited amount of time. This thesis investigates the design aspects affecting the efficiency and effectiveness of simulation games. The analysis of design aspects is followed by a framework to guide the effort of development of new designs or evaluation of current game designs. Furthermore, the framework proposed above was demonstrated on selected lean tools and their dynamics of the performance metrics was illustrated. Dynamics of the system actually helps in determining if a lean tool can be demonstrated within a reasonable timeframe or amount of effort. Eventually, this research will support lean educators to develop more effective and efficient hands-on activities for teaching process improvement concepts in the future.
