Approach to Reuse of Unity Game Scenes

Peculiarities of development application with game engines allow organizing a reuse of game scene assets during requirement analysis process. Effective requirement analysis is a background for successful performing of projects. In game development, such artifacts as game scenes prototypes may replace tons of text from requirement specification and become a good alternative of UML diagrams or other software models of processes. In-place g ame scene reuse approach for different types of game scenes (2D, 2.5D, and 3D) that raises a maturity level of reuse procedure and allows avoiding duplicating design errors when Game Scenes are reused is proposed on the paper. Considered approach is focused on two tasks fixing design errors for reusable assets and integrating of new assets to game scene. For every asset the procedure of reviewing its design and behavioral characteristics (scrips features) is performed. Approach clearly defines common and specific activi ties for different types of the scenes. This fact simplifies the procedure of its study and improvement of reuse experience. In addition, approach considers that author laws may protect some game scenes assets Experimental results, summar izing errors for designing of different scenes, are represented.
