Desarrollo e implementación de un videojuego a través de estrategias de gamificación para la modalidad a distancia de la UTPL

Abstract

Abstract: The present Degree Project seeks the incorporation of gamification in virtualized worlds (video games), with the aim of involving UTPL students in the distance modality, who, due to their localities, do not have the possibility to personally experience the activities that take place in the gamified excursions. For this, an investigation of various mechanics, aesthetics, techniques and strategies that make use of gamification was carried out, to this is added an investigation about video games such as: launch platforms, graphic engines, development techniques and similar works with the in order to ensure the success of the Degree Work. As a result, a virtualized gamified application (video game) will be obtained, which represents some physical-personal activities that students develop in the face-to-face mode. The application implies that the player (student) must explore and complete a series of challenges in which he will be evaluated, for this he must be fed back with the academic content that is found along the trails. Finally, the video game will allow the player to record their results.
