Abstract

In this study, we analyzed the motion animation of game characters, which is a visual part of the game elements for 'Hit Impact'. The game selected for analysis focused on the movements of the characters in the arcade game , which is thought to have a weak 'Hit Impact' and looked for the cause. We also analyzed the differences in the motion of the characters in the home transplant version of , which is considered to have improved 'Hit Impact', compared to the arcade version. As a result of the analysis, it was found that the reason for the weak 'Hit Impact' in the arcade version was mainly due to the wrong timing and judgment of hitting and hitting movements, and at the same time, supplemented physical reactions and stun, camera directing, and hitting effects could have a significant impact on improving 'Hit Impact'.

본 연구에서는 '타격감'에 대한 게임 요소 중 시각적인 부분인 게임 캐릭터의 동작 애니메이션을 분석해 보았다. 분석을 위해 선정한 게임은 '타격감'이 약하다고 생각되는 아케이드 게임 속 캐릭터의 동작을 중점적으로 분석하고 원인을 찾아보았다. 또한 '타격감'이 향상되었다고 평가를 받는 의 가정용 이식작의 캐릭터 동작을 아케이드 버전과 비교해서 어떠한 차이점이 있는지 분석해 보았다. 분석 결과 아케이드 버전에서 타격감이 미약했던 이유는 주로 타격 및 피격 동작의 잘못된 타이밍과 판정에서 비롯된 것이었으며, 동시에 물리적인 반응과 경직, 카메라 연출 및 타격 이펙트가 보완되면 타격감 향상에 유의미한 영향을 미칠 수 있다는 걸 알 수 있었다.
