A Guideline for Bumber Game Interface Development for iPad and iPhone (Universal Application)
description Developing a universal application for iPhone and iPad especially game application can be quite challenging since it requires developers to take into account the different in physical characteristics between these two devices which requires a different user interface layout. All iPad game maybe not properly viewable and not consistence in iPhone and vice versa. This study is aimed to create a guideline that can be used by developers to develop a universal game application that properly viewable and consistence in both devices. For this reason, a universal game application for iPhone and iPad that named 'Bumper' has been developed, which follow the guideline for development of universal game application for iPhone and iPad that have been created above. A test also has been conducted for the game to test it usability where the game has been getting an average 78.75 SUS score. Another test regarding whether the game prototype is properly viewable and consistent in both devices was also been conducted where the result shows that the game is properly viewable and consistent in both devices.
