Yoke Seng Wong, Maizatul Hayati Mohamad Yatim · 2018
In order to understand the important of object-oriented programming in tertiary level, a propriety game-based learning multiplatform game has been designed and develops as a learning tool to improve the student understanding toward object-oriented programming paradigm such as encapsulation, abstraction, inheritance and polymorphism. The proposed game is a 2D role-playing game in computer and mobile platform that allow players to learn Object-Oriented programming in an interaction way. Players will play along the flow of each game world and they will learn object-oriented programming paradigm subconsciously. Total of 214 undergraduate year one student had been participate to this research to determine the proposed game that design based on game-based learning approach is able to improve their understanding toward object-oriented programming paradigm compare to the traditional teaching and learning method. Thus, this paper is a research paper of an academic who worked with game designers, game developer to design and develop a propriety game-based learning game for learning object-oriented programming.
