Development of demonstration video game regarding scalability in multiplayer video games

Rad se bavi istraživanjem komunikacijskih mreža, umreženih virtualnih okruženja, utjecaja mrežnih parametara na UVO-a, arhitektura umreženih videoigara, metoda upravljanja stanjem umreženih videoigara te istraživanjem programskih alata Unity i Photon koji omogućuju pretvaranje navedenog iz teorije u praksu izradom umrežene višekorisničke videoigre. Fokus rada stavljen je na skalabilnost – sposobnost sustava da se prilagodi njegovom rastu, a da se pritom ne naruši njegova funkcija.This paper is intended to investigate communication networks, networked virtual environments, the effect network parameters have on NVEs, architectures of networked video games, the methods of handling the game state and software solutions Unity and Photon, which enable turning all mentioned into reality by creating a networked multiplayer video game. The focus of the paper is on scalability, defined as the ability of the system to adapt to its growth without its function being weakened or ruined in the process
