   ABSTRACT     = {In the past 10 years, several researches studied video 
      game development process who proposed approaches to improve the way 
      how games are developed. These approaches usually adopt agile 
      methodologies because of claims that traditional practices and the 
      waterfall process are gone. However, are the ``old days" really gone 
      in the game industry? In this paper, we present a survey of software 
      engineering processes in video game industry from postmortem project 
      analyses. We analyzed 20 postmortems from Gamasutra Portal. We 
      extracted their processes and modelled them through using the 
      Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN). This work presents three 
      main contributions. First, a postmortem analysis methodology to 
      identify and extract project processes. Second, the study main 
      result: the ``old days" are gone, but not completely. Iterative 
      practices are increasing and are applied to at least 65\% of projects 
      in which 45\% of this projects explicitly adopted Agile practices. 
      However, waterfall process is still applied at least 30\% of 
      projects. Finally, we discuss some implications, directions and 
      opportunities for video game development community.}
