    A systematic literature review was conducted to examine the usage of agile methods in game development. A total of 23 articles were found which were analysed with the help of concept matrices. The results indicate that agile methods are used to varying degrees in game development. Agile methods lead to improved quality of games through a prototyping, playtesting, and feedback loop. Communication and ability of the team to take responsibility are also enhanced. Challenges arise from multidisciplinary teams, management issues, lack of training in agile methods, and quality of code.

    Nowadays, with the influence of global economy large corporations use global software development to utilise advantages of geographically decentralised organisations and global outsourced software development. Through distributed organisations the work can be done around the clock. Global software development is impacted by three distance dimensions: time distance, geographical distance, and socio-cultural distance, which all bring some challenges. At the same time agile way of working has become more and more popular method in software development. As agile practises are created for co-located teams there is a demand for having working online solutions for communication and collaboration in distributed teams. Corporations use scaled agile way of working to support software develop-ment of large initiatives and projects. Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) is the most popular among the scaled agile methods. This thesis was conducted as a case study in a multinational corporation. Objective of the case study was to research effectiveness of scaled agile methodology SAFe on communication and collaboration in teams and agile release trains. The case study included two parts: a web-survey and interviews. The results of the analyses of the case study support findings from the literature in the field. The results indicate the importance of communication and collaboration in agile practices and the significance of the online tools that support it.

    Tässä tutkielmassa perehdytään alati viime vuosina suosiota projektinhallintamenetelmänä kasvattaneisiin ketteriin ohjelmistokehitysmenetelmiin (eng. Agile software development). Tutkielman on tarkoitus palvella ennen kaikkea ammatinharjoittajia heidän punnitessaan mahdollista siirtymistä ketteriin kehitysmenetelmiin ja tarjota jo valinnan tehneille lisänäkökulmia keskusteluun. Tutkimusmenetelmänä on käytetty kirjallisuuskatsausta. Tutkielman tulokset kertovat, että vastaus ei ole yksiselitteinen, vaan ammatinharjoittajien on otettava monta tekijää huomioon valinnassaan hyödyntää tai olla hyödyntämättä ketteriä ohjelmistokehitysmenetelmiä, ja useimmiten lopullinen käytännössä toimiva malli on yhdistelmä perinteisimmistä ja ketteristä ohjelmistokehitysmenetelmistä.
