Parablade: A Proposal of Chambara Based on Augmented Sports - A Study of Appropriate Game Balancing Methods
摘要
Augmented Sports is a new type of sport that combines existing physical sports with virtual parameters (VPs), which are commonly used in video games. Integrating VPs has great potential to improve players’ performance in playing sports. Therefore, a sophisticated VPs design is necessary to achieve enjoyable Augmented Sports. In this study, we developed a new Augmented Sport called “Parablade,” an extension of Chambara. In this paper, we introduce the details of Parablade and propose a novel method of designing VPs to achieve an appropriate game balance.
