AsKME: A Feature-Based Approach to Develop Multiplatform Quiz Games

Abstract

Several approaches have been proposed to manage the game domain variability in different instances and strategies. However, the idea of an one-size-fits-all game architecture can be misleading, being necessary to built reference game architectures for target (sub)domains. This paper presents the Assessment of Knownledge Multiplatform Environment (AsKME), a feature-based approach to develop multiplatform quiz games. It provides a subdomain game architecture, based on identified features of the quiz game dimension, in a Model-ViewController strategy implemented by feature artifacts adapted to be executed in distinct software platforms. As a result, a reusable approach to develop multiplatform quiz games was provided, together with the development of educational and casual quiz games for validation purposes.
