Abstract
Mobile Augmented Reality (MAR) is a unique creation in the game playing field between digital and real physical environment surroundings the players. Designing mobile augmented reality games is a challenging mission and observation is needed every perspective in creating an enjoyable and exciting player experience. This paper will discuss existing research to review the design principles of mobile augmented reality for games. The discussion on the current AR design principles in MAR would assist in identifying potential elements of AR design principles as design guidelines for AR for designers and educators respectively.
Highlights
New developments in augmented and virtual reality investments are rapidly sustaining growth, the survey of a new finding by global law firm Perkins Coie LLP shows respondents have chosen gaming as the segment they predict will attract the utmost investment for the coming year, (Coie, 2018)
In order to create a better version of MAR games design, the fundamental principles of AR design are useful and as guidelines for AR designers and educators to create a quality MAR games design, (Dunser et al, 2018), Mobile Augmented Reality Games According to Dirin and Laine (2018), clarified simulated content in MAR games can be shown in a number of forms such as animations, three-dimensional modeling, and videos
Design Principles of Mobile Augmented Reality Games In the learning study, AR games can increase self-motivation and a well-designed AR game can have a positive influence to the game play process, (Ferrer et al, 2013)
Summary
New developments in augmented and virtual reality investments are rapidly sustaining growth, the survey of a new finding by global law firm Perkins Coie LLP shows respondents have chosen gaming as the segment they predict will attract the utmost investment for the coming year, (Coie, 2018). The survey of professional respondents shows that most of them are currently developing video games for AR/VR (39%) in 2018 and that is the highest percentage among eight different types of content such as video games, movies and entertainment, social media, advertisement, music, news and visual stories, livestream, and others. In order to create a better version of MAR games design, the fundamental principles of AR design are useful and as guidelines for AR designers and educators to create a quality MAR games design, (Dunser et al, 2018), Mobile Augmented Reality Games According to Dirin and Laine (2018), clarified simulated content in MAR games can be shown in a number of forms such as animations, three-dimensional modeling, and videos. The Snapchat instant messaging application and the Pokémon Go game are fast becoming new trendy AR features in smartphones and this trend in new technology has improved players’ and developers’ views and reactions to these features
