PERANCANGAN GAME ANDROID 2D PLATFORMER RUNNER MATH UNTUK MENINGKATKAN KEMAMPUAN OPERASI ARITMATIKA SISWA SEKOLAH DASAR (STUDI KASUS: SD NEGERI KLETEK) 

DESIGNING A 2D ANDROID GAME PLATFORMER RUNNER MATH TO IMPROVE PRIMARY SCHOOL STUDENTS ARITHMETIC OPERATIONS ABILITY (CASE STUDY: KLETEK STATE PRIMARY SCHOOL)

Game android 2D platformer runner math adalah sebuah game yang dirancang untuk meningkatkan kemampuan operasi aritmatika siswa sekolah dasar. Game ini dibuat dengan menggunakan Unity Engine, yaitu sebuah perangkat lunak yang dapat membuat game 2D dan 3D. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode iterative Rapid prototyping memungkinkan visualisasi dan pengujian ide dengan segera, yang mempercepat inovasi dan proses kreatif. Penerapan finite machine untuk perancangan sistem kontrol yang menggambarkan perilaku atau prinsip operasional. Penelitian ini dilakukan sebagai studi kasus di Sekolah Dasar Negeri Keletek. Hasil pengujian fun testing yang diperoleh dari pengisian kuesioner oleh 20 responden menunjukkan bahwa keseluruhan game mendapatkan skor 91%, tampilan game 86%, tingkat keseruan game 90%, dan tingkat kesulitan game 78%. Selain itu, pada pengujian usability testing menggunakan SUS, aplikasi ini mendapatkan nilai 77,75 yang berarti perangkat lunak dinyatakan acceptable dan termasuk dalam grade C dengan rating excellent. Pengujian juga dilakukan terhadap guru matematika SD yang menyatakan bahwa aplikasi Runner Math sangat efektif dalam meningkatkan kemampuan operasi aritmatika siswa sekolah dasar.
