A Study Of Agile Method SCRUM In The Mobile Game Development For Small Team

Game industry market is growing fast, more and more Chinese companies enter the battlefield of mobile game development, but many of mobile game companies facing immense marking pressure. At the same time the original development model also has many problems. Mobile gaming industry widely used waterfall development model, but there are a lot of problems. Is Agile development model applicable to game development industry? Is agile development model able to solve these developers’ problems, and A mobile game team how to use Agile development model to improve the work efficiency is a new research topic.Based on the research of the waterfall development model, through the comparative analysis of the advantages and disadvantages of the waterfall model, rapid application development model and iterative model, iterative model according to the characteristics of game development of agile software development method in choosing the most extreme programming and SCRUM method was used to conduct in-depth analysis. Through the investigation, many literatures and data, as a small team in the mobile game development process and the application of SCRUM model on the basis of the theory and support. This thesis designs the development process management method based on SCRUM model for mobile game development team within10people, around the team building, project design process, the development of the iterative process, quality inspection process of project management. Major research completed as follows:(1) Based on the SCRUM method established a team building standards, Using the evaluation form to measure the team member’s knowledge about Scrum. To reduce the risk of team using SCRUM model from the beginning, Ensure that the project can be smoothly started.(2) The design of the game development process based on iterative SCRUM method. The process is divided into design, iteration, and acceptance. The design phase of the original WBS (Work Break down Structure) into backlog form. Iterative stage through the4kind of meetings will run through the acceptance phase of the work to iterative development stage, after dealing with the game development process of flexible multi change and experience problems.(3) Using Comparative Agility way, try to evaluate small agile teams. Measured by evaluating the results of the current application SCRUM problems and make improvements.(4) Through practical projects SCRUM-based model of the entire process management methods of verificationThis is the mobile game industry and small game development team SCRUM method increases the practical application of the case, verify that the model based on SCRUM process management effectiveness. This thesis is a mobile game application development SCRUM processes a systematic analysis, in-depth exploration and summary. For the majority of small and medium-team applications for the game development process SCRUM methodology has some guiding significance.
