[First Embodiment]
FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an example of a configuration of a game system 100 corresponding to at least one of the embodiments of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, the game system 100 includes a single terminal device (game terminal device) 20 which is a computer used by a user (player). Note that FIG. 1 shows the configuration of the terminal device 20A, which is an example of the configuration of the terminal device 20. Further, the configuration of the game system 100 is not limited to this. For example, the user's terminal device may be connected to a server device (video game processing server) via a communication network, and the video game service may be provided from this server device to the terminal device (see FIG. 3). ..

The game system 100 has various functions of displaying an image of a game space on a display screen (display unit) and executing a video game (game) that progresses based on an operation of an operation unit (operation device) by a user. Further, in the game of the example of the present embodiment, at least one event selected (selection operation) by the user from a plurality of events is executed in the game space. Execution conditions are associated with each of the plurality of events. The event selected by the user is executed when the associated execution condition is satisfied. Hereinafter, the event selected by the user may be referred to as an execution event. The execution condition includes a condition relating to a part or all of the movement locus from the start position to the end position of the designated operation that specifies the position on the display screen. The selection operation and the designation operation are operations by the user, and are performed by using the operation unit of the terminal device 20.

The terminal device 20 is managed by a player who plays a game. The terminal device 20 is composed of, for example, a terminal device capable of executing a video game such as a stationary game device, a personal computer, a mobile phone terminal, a PDA (Personal Digital Assistants), or a portable game device.

Further, the terminal device 20 includes an operation unit, a storage unit such as a hard disk drive, a control unit composed of a CPU that executes a game and generates a game image, and a display unit that displays a game image in order to execute a video game. However, since it is a general configuration, detailed description thereof will be omitted. Further, in the terminal device 20, software (game program) for executing a video game and controlling the progress of the game is stored in a storage unit. The game program also includes game data.

The operation unit of the example of the present embodiment includes an operation device that accepts inputs of a selection operation and a designated operation. The operation device that accepts the input of the selection operation includes, for example, a cross key and a game controller having a plurality of buttons. Further, the operation device that accepts the input of the designated operation includes, for example, a pointing device such as a touch panel and a mouse provided on the display screen. The same operating device as the designated operation may be used for inputting the selection operation.

Next, the configuration of the terminal device 20A, which is an example of the configuration of the terminal device 20, will be described. The terminal device 20A includes at least a determination unit (determination function) 31 and an execution unit (execution function) 32 for controlling the progress of the video game by the control unit executing the game program.

The determination unit 31 determines the execution event based on the selection operation of selecting at least one event from the plurality of events. That is, the event selected by the user's selection operation is determined as the execution event. Information about a plurality of events may be included in the game data, for example.

The execution unit 32 determines whether or not a part or all of the movement locus from the start position to the end position of the designated operation for specifying the position on the display screen satisfies the execution condition associated with the execution event. Further, when the execution unit 32 determines that the above execution conditions are satisfied, the execution unit 32 executes the execution event in the game space.

Next, the operation of the game system 100 (system 100) of this embodiment will be described.

FIG. 2 is a flowchart showing an example of a game progress process executed by the system 100. In the game progress process, processing for progressing the game, such as generating an event, is performed. Hereinafter, a case where the terminal device 20A executes the game progress process will be described as an example. Note that FIG. 2 mainly shows processes related to events, and the description of other game progress processes is omitted.

The game progress process of the example of the present embodiment is executed, for example, when the user inputs an operation to start the game.

The terminal device 20A determines whether or not there is a selection operation for selecting at least one event from the plurality of events (step S10). The terminal device 20A may make a determination using the operation signal received from the operation unit.

If there is no selection operation (step S10: NO), the terminal device 20A shifts to the process of step S12. On the other hand, when there is a selection operation (step S10: YES), the terminal device 20A sets the event selected by the selection operation as an execution event (step S11). The setting information may be stored in the storage unit of the terminal device 20A, for example.

Next, the terminal device 20A determines whether or not the execution condition associated with the execution event is satisfied (step S12). The terminal device 20A may make a determination using the operation signal received from the operation unit. If the specified operation that satisfies the execution condition is not performed, it is determined that the execution condition is not satisfied. Also, if the execution event is not set, it is determined that the execution condition is not satisfied.

If the execution condition is not satisfied (step S12: NO), the terminal device 20A shifts to the process of step S14. On the other hand, when the execution condition is satisfied (step S12: YES), the terminal device 20A sets the execution permission for the execution event (step S13). Next, the terminal device 20A performs a progress process (step S14). The progress process is a process of advancing the game based on the operation content of the operation unit by the user. For example, the operation (update) of each object existing in the game space is executed (updated). Further, in the progress process, the execution event is also executed if the execution permission is set for the execution event. The terminal device 20C cancels the execution permission setting of the execution event when the execution of the execution event is completed.

After that, the terminal device 20A determines whether or not the game is finished (step S15). The terminal device 20A may determine that the game has ended when, for example, the end condition such as when the goal in the game is achieved is satisfied. If the game is not finished (step S15: NO), the terminal device 20A returns to the process of step S10. On the other hand, when the game ends (step S15: YES), the terminal device 20A ends the game progress process.

The terminal device 20A generates a game image including an image of the game space at a predetermined timing (for example, every 1/60 second) during the execution of the game progress process according to the processing result in the game progress process. And display it on the display screen.

As described above, as one aspect of the first embodiment, since the terminal device 20A is configured to include the determination unit 31 and the execution unit 32, an event (execution) selected by the user according to the movement locus of the designated operation is provided. Event) is executed. Therefore, it is possible to provide a game that employs a new operation method suitable for the operation unit that accepts the input of the designated operation, and the taste of the game is also improved.

Further, among a plurality of events, the feasibility of the execution condition corresponding to the execution event determined by the selection operation is determined. Therefore, even if similar execution conditions are set for each event, the terminal device 20A can accurately make the above judgment.

In the example of the first embodiment described above, the terminal device 20A executes the game program to control the progress of the game, but the present invention is not particularly limited to this. For example, a game system including a server device and a terminal device as shown in FIG. 3 may be configured such that the server device includes at least a determination unit 31 and an execution unit 32 instead of the terminal device 20A.

The server device includes a storage unit such as a hard disk drive (not shown) and a control unit composed of a CPU and the like. Further, the server device controls the progress of the video game in the same manner as the terminal device 20A by the control unit executing the above-mentioned game program stored in the storage unit. The server device has a general configuration for controlling the progress of a video game such as a control unit and a communication unit, but detailed description thereof will be omitted here.

The server device does not execute the video game unlike the terminal device 20A. The server device has, for example, a communication unit connected to an Internet line (communication network) and communicates with a terminal device that executes a video game. The server device receives an operation signal (operation information) or the like from the user (terminal device), and also transmits information (image information or the like) regarding the progress of the game to the terminal device. A plurality of server devices may cooperate to execute the game program, or the server device and the terminal device may cooperate to execute the game program (control the progress of the game).

FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing an example of the operation of the server device and the terminal device when the server device executes the game progress process shown in FIG.

The server device determines whether or not there is a selection operation for selecting at least one event from the plurality of events (step S30). The server device may make a determination based on the operation signal received from the terminal device.

If there is no selection operation (step S30: NO), the server device shifts to the process of step S32. On the other hand, when there is a selection operation (step S30: NO), the server device sets the event selected by the selection operation as an execution event (step S31). The setting information may be stored in the storage unit of the server device, for example.

Next, the server device determines whether or not the execution condition associated with the execution event is satisfied (step S32). The server device may make a judgment using the operation signal received from the operation unit. If the execution condition is not satisfied (step S32: NO), the server device shifts to the process of step S34. On the other hand, when the execution condition is satisfied (step S32: YES), the server device sets the execution permission for the execution event (step S33). Next, the server device performs progress processing (step S34).

After that, the server device determines whether or not the game is finished (step S35). If the game is not finished (step S35: NO), the server device returns to the process of step S30. On the other hand, when the game ends (step S35: YES), the server device ends the game progress process.

In addition, the server device periodically receives operation information and the like of the operation unit from the terminal device, and transmits image information and the like for generating a game image according to the progress of the game such as execution of an event to the terminal device. The terminal device outputs (displays on the display screen) the game image based on the received image information until the end of the game (step S41: YES) (step S40).

The above-mentioned "event" means an event that occurs in the game space. For example, there is an event in which a player character (player object) operated by a user is made to perform a predetermined operation. The predetermined action is, for example, an attack action with a weapon or an attack action on an enemy character (enemy object) such as attack magic. In addition, for example, an event such as changing the weather in the game space or changing the in-game time (changing from day to night) is also an event, instead of the action performed by the player character.

The above-mentioned "selection operation" includes, for example, a tap operation of a touch panel arranged on the display screen. In this case, the event corresponding to the selected image selected by tapping is determined as the execution event while the selected image corresponding to each of the plurality of events is displayed on the display screen. Further, the configuration may be such that two or more events can be selected by the selection operation.

Further, it is not necessary to configure the selection by the selection operation. For example, among a plurality of events, an event whose execution conditions are similar to each other may always be an execution event even if the user does not select the event. This is because if the execution conditions are dissimilar, the terminal device can specify which skill (execution condition) the designated operation is for even if there is no selection operation.

The above-mentioned "designated operation" includes a swipe operation of a touch panel arranged on the display screen. In this case, the movement locus is from the start position of the swipe touch to the end position of the touch. Execution conditions are determined for a part or all of this movement locus.

Further, the above-mentioned "execution condition regarding the movement locus" includes, for example, a condition regarding the shape of the movement locus. The condition regarding the shape of the movement locus is, for example, that the shape of the movement locus is within the same range as a predetermined shape (line segment, circle (ring), etc.). For example, when it is determined that the movement locus of the swipe on the touch panel is within the same range as the shape of the circle (ring), the execution event is executed.

As the above-mentioned "video game", a game of any genre such as a role-playing game or a training game may be adopted as long as the event is executed.

[Second Embodiment]
FIG. 5 is a block diagram showing a configuration of a terminal device 20B, which is an example of the terminal device 20. In this example, the terminal device 20B includes at least a determination unit 31 and an execution unit 32B.

The determination unit 31 determines the execution event based on the selection operation of selecting at least one event from the plurality of events. The execution unit 32B determines whether or not a part or all of the movement locus from the start position to the end position of the designated operation that specifies the position on the display screen satisfies the execution condition associated with the execution event. Further, when the execution unit 32B determines that the above execution conditions are satisfied, the execution unit 32B executes the execution event in the game space. In the example of the present embodiment, the execution unit 32B executes the execution event in the area of the game space corresponding to the position on the display screen of the movement locus. That is, the movement locus of the designated operation also serves as an operation of designating the execution location of the execution event.

Next, the operation of the system 100 of this embodiment will be described.

FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing an example of a game progress process executed by the system 100. In the game progress process, processing for progressing the game, such as generating an event, is performed. Hereinafter, a case where the terminal device 20B executes the game progress process will be described as an example. Note that FIG. 6 mainly shows the processing related to the event, and the description of other game progress processing is omitted. Further, the flowchart showing the operation of the server device will be omitted from the viewpoint of avoiding duplicate explanations.

The game progress process of the example of the present embodiment is executed, for example, when the user inputs an operation to start the game.

The terminal device 20B determines whether or not there is a selection operation for selecting at least one event from the plurality of events (step S10). If there is no selection operation (step S10: NO), the terminal device 20B shifts to the process of step S12. On the other hand, when there is a selection operation (step S10: NO), the terminal device 20B sets the event selected by the selection operation as an execution event (step S11).

Next, the terminal device 20B determines whether or not the execution condition associated with the execution event is satisfied (step S12). If the execution condition is not satisfied (step S12: NO), the terminal device 20B shifts to the process of step S14-C. On the other hand, when the execution condition is satisfied (step S12: YES), the terminal device 20B sets the execution permission for the execution event (step S13). Next, the terminal device 20B performs a progress process (step S14-C). In the progress processing of the example of the present embodiment, as described above, the execution event is executed in the area of the game space corresponding to the position on the display screen of the movement locus.

After that, the terminal device 20B determines whether or not the game is finished (step S15). If the game is not finished (step S15: NO), the terminal device 20B returns to the process of step S10. On the other hand, when the game ends (step S15: YES), the terminal device 20B ends the game progress process.

As described above, as one aspect of the second embodiment, since the terminal device 20B is configured to include the determination unit 31 and the execution unit 32B, an event (execution) selected by the user according to the movement locus of the designated operation is provided. Event) is executed. Therefore, it is possible to provide a game that employs a new operation method suitable for the operation unit that accepts the input of the designated operation, and the taste of the game is also improved.

Further, among a plurality of events, the feasibility of the execution condition corresponding to the execution event determined by the selection operation is determined. Therefore, even if similar execution conditions are set for each event, the terminal device In 20B, the above judgment can be made accurately.

Further, in the example of the present embodiment, the execution event is executed at the execution location of the game space designated by the movement locus of the designated operation. Therefore, the user needs to perform the designated operation not only in consideration of the execution condition but also in consideration of where the execution event should be executed, which further improves the taste of the game.

For example, an execution event for causing the player character to perform an attack magic action of dropping a meteorite by swiping a touch panel arranged on the display screen will be described. On the display screen, a game image in which the enemy character is displayed in the game space is displayed. When the area where the enemy character exists is specified by the movement trajectory of the swipe, the meteorite falls to the area where the enemy character exists due to the attack magic action of the player character. Then, the meteorite damages this enemy character. On the other hand, if an area where no enemy character exists is specified by the swipe movement trajectory, a meteorite will fall into this area, but the enemy character will not be damaged.

[Third Embodiment]
FIG. 7 is a front view showing the appearance of the terminal device 20C, which is an example of the terminal device 20. The terminal device 20C of the example of the present embodiment is a mobile phone terminal (smartphone) having a communication function of communicating with another terminal device via a communication network such as the Internet. The terminal device 20C includes a display unit 22 or the like having a touch panel 21. The touch panel 21 is an operation unit arranged on the display screen of the display unit 22 and accepting a user's operation input. The touch panel 21 of the example of this embodiment can detect up to two touch positions at the same time. The display unit 22 is, for example, a liquid crystal display device, and displays a game image of the game (application) of the example of the present embodiment.

The terminal device 20C executes an application program (game program) stored in the storage unit of the terminal device 20C to display a game image as shown in FIG. 7 on the display screen of the display unit 22 so that the user can play the game. I will provide a. In the game of the example of the present embodiment, in the virtual game space (three-dimensional virtual space) 50, a game in which a player character (player object) PC operated by a user fights against an enemy character (enemy object) EC is played. In the example of this embodiment, the player character PC activates (executes) the skill in the game space 50. This skill corresponds to an event. Skill means special actions of the player character PC such as attack technique, attack magic, and recovery magic.

As shown in FIG. 7, the game image of the example of the present embodiment includes an image of the game space 50, an image of the HP gauge 61 and the MP gauge 62, an image of the skill icon 65, and the like. The HP gauge 61 indicates the current value of the HP parameter indicating the vitality of the player character PC. The current value of the HP parameter is reduced by the attack received by the player character PC from the enemy character EC. Then, when the current value of the HP parameter becomes a predetermined value (for example, 0) or less, the player character PC becomes inoperable and the game ends. The MP gauge 62 indicates the current value of the MP parameter for activating the skill of the player character PC. MP parameters decrease (consumed) according to the skill activated. If the current value of the MP parameter is less than the amount required to activate the skill, the player character PC cannot activate the skill.

The skill icon 65 indicates a skill that can be activated by the player character PC. In FIG. 7, five skill icons 65A to 65E are displayed, indicating a state in which the player character PC can activate the five skills. For the skill icons 65D and 65E, the illustration of the skill is omitted. Further, the skill icon 65 includes an image of the operation icon 66. The operation icon 66 indicates an execution condition for activating the skill.

The user can select the skill to be activated by tapping the display screen (touch panel 21) on which the image of the skill icon 65 is displayed. After that, the user can activate (execute) this skill on the player character PC by performing an operation (designated operation) that satisfies the execution condition of the selected skill. Hereinafter, the selected skill may be referred to as an execution skill (execution event).

The execution condition of the execution skill includes a condition related to the shape of the movement locus from the start position to the end position of the designated operation that specifies the position on the display screen. Specifically, it is a condition regarding the shape of the movement locus that the shape of the movement locus of the designated operation is within the same range as the shape shown by the operation icon 66. In the designated operation of the example of the present embodiment, the input is accepted in the input range W on the touch panel 21. The input range W is an area in which the image of the game space 50 is displayed. The same range as the shape (of the execution condition) shown by the operation icon 66 can be arbitrarily set.

For example, a case of activating the skill corresponding to the skill icon 65B shown in FIG. 7 will be described with reference to FIGS. 8 (A) to 8 (C). 8 (A) to 8 (C) are diagrams showing an example of a game image showing a procedure for activating the skill. The skill "Meteor" (see FIG. 10) of the skill icon 65B in the example of the present embodiment is a player character PC that drops a meteorite wrapped in flame into the area of the game space 50 designated by the movement locus L of the designated operation. It is an attack magic action. The enemy character EC hit by the meteorite is damaged. The execution condition of the skill "Meteor" is to perform a designated operation so that the shape of the movement locus L is within the same range as the shape of a single circle (ring). That is, a ring-shaped movement locus L is formed on the display screen (input range W) by swiping.

First, when the user taps the skill icon 65B, the skill icon 65B changes from the state shown in FIG. 7 to a display mode different from the other icons 65A and 65C as shown in FIG. 8 (A). Specifically, the grayed out display of the operation icon 66B is canceled. That is, the skill "Meteor" is selected as the execution skill. Then, when the user starts a designated operation (swipe) on the input range W of the touch panel 21, an image of the movement locus L by swiping is displayed as shown in FIG. 8 (B). Also, a double ring image is displayed at the position currently touched by the user. After that, when the swipe operation is completed and it is determined that the movement locus L is within the same range as the shape of the single circle (ring), the player character PC starts the attack magic chanting operation of dropping the meteorite. .. As a result, as shown in FIG. 8C, the meteorite object (or effect) falls into the area 90 of the game space 50 corresponding to the movement locus L. That is, the execution skill is executed in the area (designated range) of the game space 50 designated by the swipe movement locus L. The player character PC does not need to be in the area 90. Further, the terminal device 20C determines that the designated operation has been started when the touch panel 21 (input range W) detects a touch by a finger or the like, and the touched finger or the like is separated from the input range W (touch panel 21). If this is the case, it is determined that the specified operation has been completed.

As shown in FIG. 8B, the movement locus L does not have a perfect circular shape, but if it is determined that the movement locus L has the same range as the circular (single) shape, the execution condition is satisfied. The same range will be described later. Further, in the example of the present embodiment, the region 90 as shown in FIG. 8C does not have to be the same as the shape of the movement locus L. In the example of the present embodiment, a circular region having a predetermined radius centered on the center point of the movement locus L is set as the region 90.

Next, the skill "Thunder" (see FIG. 10) corresponding to the skill icon 65A will be described. The skill "Thunder" is an attack magic operation of the player character PC that generates a lightning strike in the area of the game space 50 designated by the movement locus L of the designated operation. The execution condition ("straight line (long)") of the skill "Thunder" is to perform a designated operation so that the shape of the movement locus is within the same range as the shape of the straight line (line segment) of a predetermined distance. That is, a linear movement locus is formed on the display screen (input range W) by swiping. When the execution condition is satisfied, a lightning object (or effect) falls in the area of the game space 50 corresponding to the movement locus L. In the example of the present embodiment, a lightning strike object (or effect) is generated in a region on a line segment connecting the start point and the end point E of the movement locus L. As a result, the enemy character EC located on the line segment of the movement locus L is damaged by the lightning strike.

Even in the execution condition of the skill "Thunder" described above, the shape of the movement locus L does not have to be a straight shape, and if it is determined that the shape is in the same range as the shape of a straight line (line segment) of a predetermined distance, the execution condition is satisfied. Will be established. Further, the region of the game space 50 corresponding to the movement locus L does not have to be the same as the shape of the movement locus L.

Next, the display state of the skill icon 65 will be described with reference to FIG. As described above, the grayed out state of the operation icon 66 is switched depending on whether the skill icon 65 is selected or not selected. In addition, the display mode of the skill icon 65 changes even when it is in the cool time and in the stack state. The cool time is a period during which the execution of the skill that was the execution skill is prohibited from being executed again until a predetermined period elapses after the execution of the execution skill. That is, skills in the cool time state are prohibited from executing. The skill icon 65 of the skill in the cool time state is first displayed with the entire area showing the skill grayed out as illustrated in “Display 1” of FIG. Then, as time passes, the grayout is canceled in the order of "display 1", "display 2", and "display 3". There is no need to configure the cool time.

Further, an image of "NEXT" is added to the skill icon 65 of the execution skill in the stack. During the stack, it means that the skill is allowed to run but is waiting to run. For example, if the execution condition of the execution skill "Thunder" is satisfied while the execution skill "Meteor" is being executed, the execution skill "Thunder" is set as the execution skill in the stack. Then, after the execution of the execution skill "Meteor" is completed, the execution skill "Thunder" is executed. The skill that is permitted to be executed (or is being executed) may be referred to as the first execution skill, and the execution skill in the stack may be referred to as the second execution skill. The number of stacks of execution skills is not limited to one. Also, stacking may be prohibited.

The skills that can be activated by the player character PC as described above increase, for example, depending on the level of the player character PC. The level rises when the player character PC defeats many enemy character ECs. Information on each parameter such as the level of the player character PC and the skill that can be activated may be included in the user data and stored in the storage unit of the terminal device 20C. User data is user information about the game. Further, the execution conditions and the like of each skill are set in the skill table as shown in FIG.

FIG. 10 is a diagram showing an example of a skill table. The skill table is stored in the storage unit of the terminal device 20C as a part of the game data. The skill table is composed of fields such as skill ID, skill name, execution condition (input type), skill content, icon image, and MP consumption. In the skill ID field, the skill ID, which is the skill identification information, is set. Each skill ID is associated with a skill name, execution conditions, skill contents, icon images, MP consumption, and the like.

In the skill name field, for example, text data indicating the skill name is set. In the execution condition field, the execution condition of the skill is set. Specifically, conditions regarding the shape (input type) of the movement locus of the designated operation are set. In the skill content field, the content of the skill to be executed is set. In the icon image field, information that identifies the image of the skill icon 65 of the skill (skill ID), such as the name of the image file, is set. For the MP consumption amount, the MP parameter consumption amount (numerical value) accompanying the execution of the skill is set. If the current value of the MP parameter is less than the set value of MP consumption, execution of the skill is prohibited.

The terminal device 20C refers to the skill table and determines whether or not the execution condition corresponding to the execution skill (skill ID) is satisfied by the user's designated operation (movement locus L). The designated operation of the example of the present embodiment is an operation of swiping or the like on the touch panel 21 with a finger or the like as described above. Therefore, the movement locus L of the designated operation is calculated based on, for example, the position information (coordinate information) on the touch panel 21 from the start of the touch on the touch panel 21 by the user to the end of the touch. Since the acquisition of touch position information is a general configuration, detailed description thereof will be omitted.

Next, an example of a method for determining whether or not the shape of the movement locus L is within the same range as the shape (of the execution condition) shown by the operation icon 66 will be described. The following will be described by taking "straight line (long)", "circle (single)", "pinch-in", and "three vertical lines" shown in FIG. 10 as examples. Hereinafter, the entire range from the start position (touch start position) to the end position (final touch position) of the designated operation will be described as the movement locus L.

First, the execution condition "straight line (long)" will be described. FIG. 11A shows an example of the movement locus L when the user swipes with respect to the touch panel 21 to form a straight line (long). The execution condition "straight line (long line)" is to perform a designated operation so that the movement locus L by swiping becomes a line segment (straight line) of a predetermined distance or more. The terminal device 20C determines that the movement locus L is in the same range as a line segment (straight line) having a predetermined distance or more when all of the following determination conditions (a1) to (a3) are satisfied.

(A1) The outer angles θ of all the vertices of the continuous line segments of the movement locus are θ <predetermined angle R1.
(A2) The number of vertices of the movement locus is a predetermined number M or less.
(A3) The distance between the start point and the end point of the movement locus is a predetermined distance D1 or more.

The apex of the movement locus L is, for example, the apex P1 as shown in FIG. 10A, and is formed when the movement locus L is not straight. That is, the movement locus L is formed from a plurality of line segments. The determination condition (a1) is satisfied when the outer angle θ of each such vertex is less than the predetermined angle R1. Further, if the number of such vertices is a predetermined number M or less, the determination condition (a2) is satisfied. For example, a predetermined angle R1: 25 degrees and a predetermined number M: 4 may be set. Since the identification of the vertices is a general configuration, detailed description thereof will be omitted. The distance of the determination condition (a3) is, for example, the distance between the start point S and the end point E of the movement locus shown in FIG. 10 (A). The distance of the determination condition (a3) may be determined by the number of pixels (pixels) between the start point and the end point. For example, the predetermined distance D1: 50 pixels may be set. As a result, even if the movement locus L is not a straight shape, if the judgment conditions (a1) to (a3) are satisfied, the shape of the movement locus L is determined to be the shape of a line segment (straight line) of a predetermined distance or more. NS.

Then, when the execution condition "straight line (long)" is satisfied, a lightning strike object (or effect) is generated on the line segment connecting the start point S and the end point E of the movement locus L.

In the case of the execution condition "straight line (short)", the predetermined distance D2 may be used instead of the predetermined distance D1 of the determination condition (a3) (D2 <D1). In the example of this embodiment, the direction of the line segment is not limited, but it may be limited. In this case, for example, the direction of the movement locus may be determined from the start point and the end point of the movement locus L.

Next, the execution condition "circle (single)" will be described. FIG. 11B shows an example of the movement locus L when the user swipes with respect to the touch panel 21 to form a circle (single). The execution condition "circle (single)" is to perform a designated operation so that the movement locus L by swiping has a circular (ring) shape. The terminal device 20C determines that the movement locus L is in the same range as the circular shape when all of the following determination conditions (b1) to (b3) are satisfied.

(B1) The sum of the outer angles θ of all the vertices of the continuous line segments of the movement locus is a predetermined angle R2 ≦ Σθ <predetermined angle R3 (R2 <R3).
(B2) The rotation direction of the vector of all continuous line segments of the movement locus is the predetermined direction V.
(B3) There is no outer angle θ of all the vertices of the continuous line segment of the movement locus where θ> a predetermined angle R4.

In the determination condition (b1), for example, in FIG. 11B, the vertices P1 to P6 are determined. For example, the predetermined angle R2: 345 degrees and the predetermined angle R3: 465 degrees may be set. In the determination condition (b2), whether or not the rotation direction of the vector of the next line segment with respect to the vector of one line segment is a constant direction V (for example, clockwise) is determined for all the line segments. For example, in FIG. 11B, all line segments LS1 to L7 are judged. Under the determination condition (b3), for example, in FIG. 11B, the vertices P1 to P6 are determined. Further, for example, the predetermined angle R4: 120 degrees may be set. As a result, even if the shape of the movement locus is not a perfect circle, the shape of the movement locus L is determined to be a circular shape if the determination conditions (b1) to (b3) are satisfied. Further, for example, as in the movement locus L shown in FIG. 11B, even if the start point S and the end point E are not connected, the movement is performed when the determination conditions (b1) to (b3) are satisfied. The shape of the locus is judged to be circular.

Then, when the execution condition "circle (single)" is satisfied, as shown in FIG. 8C, a meteorite object (or effect) is formed in a circular region 90 having a predetermined radius centered on the center point of the movement locus L. ) Will fall.

Next, the execution condition "pinch-in" will be described. FIG. 11C shows an example of movement loci L1 and L2 when the user swipes with respect to the touch panel 21 to form a pinch-in. The execution condition "pinch-in" is a designated operation of moving two fingers on the touch panel 21 as if pinching them. Therefore, two movement loci L1 and L2 are generated at the same time. The execution condition "pinch-in" corresponds to the operation icon 66C of the skill icon 65C shown in FIG. 7. The terminal device 20C determines that the movement loci L1 and L2 are in the same range as the pinch-in when all of the following determination conditions (c1) to (c5) are satisfied.

(C1) The outer angles θ1 of all the vertices of the continuous line segments of each movement locus are θ1 <predetermined angle R5.
(C2) The continuous line segment of each movement locus does not have an intersection with the central axis of the start point of each movement locus. (C3) The angle θ2 formed by the vectors of the continuous line segments of each movement locus is a predetermined angle R6 <θ2. <Predetermined angle R7 (R6 <R7)
(C4) Distance between start points of each movement locus> Distance between end points (c5) Distance between end points of each movement locus is a predetermined distance D3 or less

The determination condition (c1) is the same as the determination condition (a1) described above, and the determination is made for the outer angle θ1 of the apex in each of the movement loci L1 and L2. For example, in FIG. 11C, the outer angle θ1 of the vertices P1-1 and P2-1 is determined. Further, for example, the predetermined angle R5: 45 degrees may be set. As shown in FIG. 11C, for example, the central axis of the start point of each movement locus of the determination condition (c2) is orthogonal to the line segment S1S2 connecting the start points S1 and S2, and the midpoint of the line segment S1S2 is set. It is an axis (straight line) G1 through which it passes. The vectors of the continuous line segments of each movement locus in the determination condition (c3) mean the vectors of the movement loci L1 and L2. For example, in FIG. 10C, the angle θ2 formed by the vector T1 and the vector T2 is determined. For example, the predetermined angle R6: 120 degrees and the predetermined angle R7: 240 degrees may be set.

The distance between the start points and the distance between the end points of the determination conditions (c4) and (c5) are, for example, the distance between the start points S1 and S2 and the distance between the end points E1 and E2 in FIG. 10C. The distance may be calculated by the number of pixels as described above. Further, for example, the predetermined distance D3: 450 pixels may be set.

Then, when the execution condition "pinch-in" is satisfied, the effect of explosion is generated centering on the position of the game space 50 corresponding to the midpoint of the line segment connecting the start points of the movement loci L1 and L2.

Next, the execution condition "vertical lines (3 lines)" will be described. FIG. 11D shows an example of movement loci L1 to L3 when the user swipes with respect to the touch panel 21 to form vertical lines (three lines). The execution condition "vertical lines (three lines)" is to perform a designated operation so that the three movement loci L1 to L3 become three vertical line segments (straight lines). That is, the execution condition "vertical lines (three lines)" includes conditions relating to the shapes of a plurality of movement loci. In the example of the present embodiment, since one movement locus is formed by one designation operation, three designation operations are required. The terminal device 20C determines that the three movement loci L1 to L3 are in the same range as the three vertical line segments when all of the following determination conditions (d1) and (d2) are satisfied.

(D1) Swipe (designated operation) three times within a predetermined time T (d2) The angle θ between the line segment connecting the start point and the end point of the movement locus of each swipe and the X axis is a predetermined angle R8 ≦ θ <R9.

In the determination condition (d1), it is determined whether or not the designated operation is performed three times in succession within the predetermined time T. For example, the predetermined time T: 1 second may be set. In the determination condition (d2), for example, as shown in FIG. 11D, the line segment S1E1 connecting the start point S1 and the end point E1 of the movement locus L1, the line segment S2E2 connecting the start point S2 and the end point E2 of the movement locus L2, and the movement. The angle θ with respect to the X axis with respect to each of the line segment S3E3 connecting the start point S3 and the end point E3 of the locus L3 is determined. For example, the predetermined angle R8: 60 degrees and the predetermined angle R9: 120 degrees may be set. The X-axis means the X-axis (horizontal direction) of the screen coordinate system. Therefore, for example, when the longitudinal direction of the display screen as shown in FIG. 7 is the vertical direction (Y-axis direction), the lateral direction of the display screen is the X-axis direction.

The specified operation related to the illustrated execution condition is a swipe operation, but the specified operation is not limited to the swipe operation. Designated operations include tap operations such as long press and double tap. A long press means an operation of keeping one point on the touch panel touched without swiping. This corresponds to the designated operation under the execution condition "Tame" shown in FIG. That is, the movement locus becomes a point. For example, when the button is continuously pressed for 0.75 seconds or longer, it is determined that the execution condition "Tame" is satisfied. Further, the execution condition of the specified operation that combines a plurality of operations such as long press and swipe may be set.

FIG. 12 is a block diagram showing a configuration of a terminal device 20C, which is an example of the terminal device 20. In this example, the terminal device 20C includes at least a determination unit 31C, a player character control unit (control function) 33C, an enemy character control unit 34C, and a display control unit (display control function) 35C.

The determination unit 31C determines the execution skill based on the selection operation of selecting at least one skill from the skills that are a plurality of events. As described above, the skill corresponding to the tapped skill icon 65 is determined as the execution skill. The player character control unit 33C controls the operation of the player character based on the user's operation. Further, the player character 33C includes the execution unit 32C. The execution unit 32C causes the player character PC to perform a predetermined operation corresponding to the execution skill. Specifically, as described above, in the execution unit 32C, the movement locus from the start position to the end position of the designated operation that specifies the position on the display screen is associated with the execution skill based on the skill table. Judge whether the execution condition is satisfied. Further, when the execution unit 32C determines that the above execution conditions are satisfied, the execution unit 32C causes the player character PC to perform a predetermined operation corresponding to the execution skill based on the skill table. Then, the execution unit 32C generates an effect according to the operation of the player character PC in the area of the game space 50 corresponding to the position on the display screen of the movement locus.

In addition, the execution unit 32C reduces the MP parameter according to the execution of the execution skill, and prohibits the execution of the execution skill when the current value of the MP parameter becomes equal to or less than a predetermined value (consumption amount associated with skill execution). .. Further, the execution unit 32C prohibits the execution of the next skill from the execution of the execution skill until a predetermined period (cool time) elapses.

The enemy character control unit 34C controls the operation of the enemy character. The display control unit 35C displays a selection image (image of the skill icon 65) corresponding to each of the plurality of skills that the player character PC can activate on the display screen. Further, the display control unit 35C changes the display mode of the image of the skill icon 65 as illustrated in FIG. 9 according to the state of the corresponding skill.

Next, the operation of the system 100 of this embodiment will be described.

FIG. 13 is a flowchart showing an example of a game progress process executed by the system 100. In the game progress process, processing for progressing the game, such as generating an event (skill), is performed. Hereinafter, a case where the terminal device 20C executes the game progress process will be described as an example. Note that FIG. 13 mainly shows processes related to skills, and the description of other game progress processes is omitted. Further, the flowchart showing the operation of the server device will be omitted from the viewpoint of avoiding duplicate explanations.

The game progress process of the example of the present embodiment is executed, for example, when the user inputs an operation to start the game. The terminal device 20C generates and displays a game image as shown in FIG. 7 at a predetermined timing (for example, every 1/60 second) during the execution of the game progress process according to the processing result in the game progress process. Display on the screen.

The terminal device 20C determines whether or not there is a selection operation for selecting one skill from the plurality of skills (step S10-5C). In the example of the present embodiment, as described above, it is determined by the presence or absence of the tap operation of the skill icon 65 displayed on the display screen. Further, in the example of the present embodiment, even when the skill icon 65 corresponding to the skill during the cool time is tapped, it is determined that there is no tap operation. When there is no tap of the skill icon 65 (step S10-5C: NO), the terminal device 20C shifts to the process of step S12-C.

On the other hand, when the icon 65 is tapped (step S10-C: YES), the terminal device 20C sets the skill corresponding to the skill icon 65 selected by the tap operation as the execution skill (step S11-C). ). As a result, as illustrated in FIG. 8B, the display mode of the image of the skill icon 65 corresponding to the execution skill changes.

Next, the terminal device 20C determines whether or not the execution condition associated with the execution skill is satisfied based on the skill table (step S12-C). As described above, it is determined whether or not the shape of the movement locus L of the designated operation is within the same range as the shape designated by the execution condition. Also, if the execution skill is not set, it is determined that the execution condition is not satisfied. If the execution condition is not satisfied (step S12-C: NO), the terminal device 20C shifts to the process of step S14-C.

On the other hand, when the execution condition is satisfied (step S12-C: YES), the terminal device 20C determines whether or not there is an execution skill currently being executed (during execution) (step S12-10C). The terminal device 20C determines whether or not the first execution skill is set.

When there is no execution skill being executed (step S12-10C: NO), the terminal device 20C sets the execution skill determined in the process of S11-C as the first execution skill (step S13-C). On the other hand, when there is an execution skill being executed (step S12-10C: YES), the terminal device 20C sets the execution skill determined in the process of S11-C as the second execution skill to be executed next (step S12-10C: YES). Step S13-10C). As a result, the image of the skill icon 65 corresponding to the second execution skill changes to the display mode of the state in the stack illustrated in FIG.

Next, the terminal device 20C performs a progress process (step S14-C). The progress process is a process of advancing the game based on the operation content of the operation unit by the user. In the progress processing of the present embodiment, the operation of each character PC and EC is controlled, and the parameters and the like of each character PC and EC are updated. For example, when the enemy character EC is damaged by the execution of the first execution skill, the HP parameter of the enemy character EC is reduced. Further, in the progress process, if the first execution skill is set, the first execution skill is executed based on the skill table. Further, in the progress processing, the terminal device 20C reduces the current value of the MP parameter by the amount of consumption of the execution of the first execution skill.

Further, in the progress processing, when the execution of the first execution skill is completed, the terminal device 20C sets the skill (skill ID) which is the first execution skill in the above-mentioned cool time list, and sets the second execution skill in the first execution. Change to skill.

After that, the terminal device 20C updates the cool time list (steps S14-10C). Specifically, as described above, the terminal device 20C updates the elapsed time of the skill in the cool time list, and deletes the skill (skill ID) for which a predetermined period has passed since the execution from the cool time list.

After that, the terminal device 20C determines whether or not the game is finished (step S15-C). In the present embodiment, it is determined that the game is finished when the clearing condition of the game is satisfied or when the current value of the HP parameter of the player character PC reaches 0. If the game is not finished (step S15-C: NO), the terminal device 20C returns to the process of step S10-C. On the other hand, when the game ends (step S15-C: YES), the terminal device 20C ends the game progress process.

As described above, as one aspect of the third embodiment, the terminal device 20C includes a determination unit 31C, a player character control unit 33C (execution unit 32C), an enemy character control unit 34C, and a display control unit 35C. Therefore, the skill (execution skill) selected by the user is executed according to the movement locus L of the designated operation. Therefore, it is possible to provide a game that employs a new operation method suitable for the operation unit (touch panel 21) that accepts the input of the designated operation, and the taste of the game is also improved.

In addition, since the feasibility is determined for the execution conditions corresponding to the execution skills determined by the selection operation among a plurality of skills, even if similar execution conditions are set for each skill, the terminal device 20C can accurately make the above judgment. For example, in the case of the execution conditions "straight line (long)" and "straight line (short)", if the execution icon is determined to be one by the selection operation, only the execution condition of the execution icon needs to be determined.

Further, the execution skill is executed at the execution location in the game space designated by the movement locus L of the designated operation. Therefore, the user needs to perform the designated operation not only in consideration of the execution condition but also in consideration of where the execution skill should be executed, which further improves the taste of the game.

In the example of the above-described embodiment, the operation may be canceled (reset) in the middle of the designated operation. For example, as shown in FIG. 14, the specified operation is released outside the input range W. More specifically, the designation operation may be performed so that the end point E of the movement locus L is outside the input range W. As a result, the terminal device 20C determines that the input of the designated operation currently being input has been canceled (reset). In particular, it is effective when the execution condition requires a plurality of specified operations.

In the example of the above-described embodiment, when only one skill icon 65 is displayed on the display screen, the skill icon 65 is always set to the selected state even if the user does not tap. good.

In the example of the above-described embodiment, the user selects the execution skill before performing the designated operation for the execution condition, but the present invention is not particularly limited to this. For example, among the skills that can be activated, a skill whose execution conditions are dissimilar to any of the skills may always be an execution skill (selected state) even if the user does not select the skill. The case where the above example is applied will be described with reference to FIGS. 15 (A) and 15 (B).

15 (A) and 15 (B) are examples of game images in which the same skill icons 65A to 65E as in FIG. 7 are displayed. FIG. 15A shows a state in which the user has not tapped (selected operation). FIG. 15B shows a state in which the skill icon 65A is selected by the user performing a selection operation.

The execution condition "pinch in" (operation icon 66C) is dissimilar to any of the execution conditions of the skills of the skill icons 65A, 65B, 65D, and 65E. Therefore, even if the user does not perform the selection operation, the skill icon 65C is always in the display mode during selection as shown in FIG. 15 (A).

On the other hand, the execution condition "straight line (long)" (operation icon 66A) and the execution condition "straight line (short)" (operation icon 66D) are similar because they have a straight line (line segment) in shape. The execution condition "circle (single)" (operation icon 66B) and the execution condition "circle (single)" (operation icon 66E) are the same in that the shape is a circle (ring). Therefore, these skill icons 65A, 65B, 65D, and 65E are in the non-selected display mode as shown in FIG. 15A unless the user performs a selection operation. For example, when the user performs a selection operation on the skill icon 65A, the grayout of the operation icon 66A is canceled as shown in FIG. 15B. That is, the skill icon 65A and the skill icon 65C are the selected display modes, and the skill "Thunder" and the skill "Meteor" are the execution skills.

The terminal device 20C permits the execution of the skill for which the execution condition is satisfied, out of the above two execution skills. Since the execution conditions of the skill "Thunder" and the skill "Meteor" are dissimilar, the execution conditions of each execution skill are not satisfied at the same time.

Further, in the above example, the same or similar relationship of each execution condition may be included in the game data in advance. For example, information for identifying skills having the same or similar execution conditions may be set in association with the skill ID in the skill table described above.

Further, in the above-described example of the present embodiment, only one skill can be selected as the execution skill, but the user may be able to select a plurality of skills. For example, as illustrated in FIGS. 15 (A) and 15 (B) above, among the skills that can be activated, a skill whose execution conditions are dissimilar to any of the skills is simultaneously selected by the user as two or more execution skills. It may be possible. More specifically, in the state illustrated in FIG. 7, up to three skills can be selected. That is, any one skill of the skill icon 65A and the skill icon 65B, any one skill of the skill icon 65B and the skill icon 65E, and the skill of the skill icon 65C can be selected at the same time.

In the example of the embodiment described above. As an event, a skill configuration for causing the player character PC to perform a predetermined operation is adopted, but the event is not particularly limited to this. For example, the skill shown in FIG. 10 may be executed regardless of the operation of the player character PC. That is, the meteorite may simply fall into the area of the game space 50 designated by the movement locus L of the designated operation.

In the example of the above-described embodiment, the execution condition is determined for all the movement loci from the start position to the end position of the designated operation, but the execution condition is determined for a part of the movement locus. You may.

The game space 50 in the example of the above-described embodiment is a three-dimensional virtual space, but is not particularly limited thereto. For example, it may be a two-dimensional virtual space.
