This study explores the application of design patterns in game development to improve flexibility and reusability of game architecture, focusing on the Rock-Paper-Scissors pattern, Strategy and Observer design patterns, and future research recommendations. Findings suggest that using design patterns reduces complexity and coupling, increasing project size. Encouraging the adoption of design patterns in game logic is advocated for enhanced game development.

Abstract • Use of Object Oriented design patterns in game development • Application of design patterns
Indtroduction • Games, one of the most profitable factors in the software industry • Research on this field is in its infancy • Distinction between games and other forms of software • Development teams • Independent video game development.
Game architecture This schema presents an interactive game’s vital modules
Design patterns • Increase the flexibility and reusability of the underlying system • Design patterns are not universally good or bad • Usage in game development is an open research field
Rock – Paper – Scissors pattern • Based on the children's game with the same name • Rock beats scissors, scissors beat paper and paper beats rock
Future Research • Applicability of other object-oriented design patterns should be examined • Classes participating in patterns are more change prone?
Conclusions • Patterns under study has reduced complexity and coupling compared to a prior game version developed without the pattern • The size of the projects has increased in the pattern version • Design patterns should be encouraged
