The game control procedure of the present embodiment having the above configuration will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 2 is a flowchart showing a game progress control procedure of the present embodiment, and FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing a detailed control procedure of the game play control of FIG. In the present embodiment,
First, the game progress control in the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.

In the game machine according to the present embodiment, when the apparatus is powered on, the game program stored in the game program storage section 4 is started, and the control shifts to the control shown in FIG. The game program storage unit 4 may be a ROM for storing a game program or a CD.
-A ROM drive and a CD-ROM in which game programs, game data, graphics, and the like mounted on the CD-ROM drive are stored may be set.

In the game of the present embodiment, the display screen of the monitor 9 is divided and displayed in two upper and lower display areas, and the upper first display area is displayed.
In the display area, the number of color-coded band displays selected according to the selected music tune is performed, and a notch portion in which any part of the band display is cut out when the game is executed is generated to display the band shape. Is scrolled, and at least a block that can be fitted into at least a part of the cutout portion in the band-shaped display is displayed in the lower second display area that is divided and displayed, and one of the blocks by touching the touch panel 16 by the operator is displayed. Detecting the designation of one of the specified blocks and the position of the specified block to be inserted into the notch, the color of the specified block matches the color of the band display of the notch,
When the size is such that the notch can be fitted, the designated block is fitted into the notch, and the band-shaped display is scrolled to a predetermined display position on the display screen (for example, the end of the display screen). If the notch is filled with a block by the time, the score is added, and if not, the point is reduced.

First, in step S1, according to the program stored in the game program storage section 4, data and graphics required for the game are read out and stored in the RAM 3 as necessary, and the opening display data is displayed in the display control section. In addition to writing into the display buffer 8 for display, an opening sound is output to the sound control unit 8. Then, it waits for the billing control unit 40 to detect billing.

When the player operating the game device inserts a coin to start the game during the opening display (title display), the process proceeds from step S1 to step S2, and a difficulty selection screen for selecting the difficulty of the game. Is displayed, and the process proceeds to the difficulty level selection process. Here the gamer can choose his difficulty to clear,
Everyone from beginners to experienced players can enjoy this game.

The difficulty level selection process is a process for selecting the number of band-shaped scroll displays to be described later. The difficulty level increases as the number increases. In the present embodiment, an arbitrary number can be selected from one to four. Alternatively, when the scroll speed is controlled to increase the difficulty level, a mode in which the scroll speed is high may be set. If the size of the similar region is reduced, the difficulty increases, so the size of the scrolled region may be controlled.
Alternatively, in the case of the highest mode, it is not possible to always perform the band display, but to repeat the display-delete-display-delete display, and remember the temporarily displayed state and respond as described later. Select the block to be touched and touch the corresponding strip display. Further, the block display may be a display in which display-erase-display-erase is repeated.

When the selection of the degree of difficulty is completed, the screen shifts to a game song name display image in step S3, and a song title to be played is selected from the song titles stored in the music information storage unit 5 in advance and an instruction is input. This is specified by inputting a number corresponding to the title of the music. Thereby, the designated music is output in the background during the game. For example, the rhythm of the back is different according to the selection of the music, so that the game input can be performed with the rhythm preferred by the gamer. Note that this processing is not necessarily performed, and can be omitted.

Since the game preparation is completed, the process proceeds to step S4, where a game play process is performed and a game is performed. In the present embodiment, the number of color-coded bands displayed according to the selected difficulty level is scroll-displayed leftward from the right end of the display screen, and the selected music is output from the speaker 7. When a part of the band-shaped display is cut out, select a block having a size that can be fitted (embedded) in the cutout portion from the blocks displayed in the lower row, touch with a finger or the like, and then fit the block. By touching the notch of the power strip display, the previously touched block is embedded in the power strip display. Therefore,
The size and color of the cutout portion are quickly judged, and the ability to select and touch the corresponding block and compete with the accuracy of the instruction are competed. Details regarding this game play will be described later.

When the selected game is over, step S
From step 4, the process proceeds to step S5, and it is checked whether or not all indicators indicating the allowable number of mistakes are turned on. If all the indicators are lit, it is determined that the game could not be cleared, "game end" is displayed in step S6, the game is ended, and the game start screen in step S1 is returned.

On the other hand, if all indicators are not displayed in step S5, the game has been cleared, "game rear clear" is displayed, and the process returns to step S2, where selection for the next game can be performed.

Next, the details of the game play processing in step S4 in FIG. 2 will be described with reference to FIG.

In the game play processing, first, in step S4
In step 1, the number and color of the strips to be displayed in the first area at the top of the display screen are determined according to the degree of difficulty and the music selection selected in step S2, and the determined number of strips is displayed in different colors. At this time, the musical instruments according to the selected music may be distributed to the respective band displays and displayed at, for example, the end of the band display unit. Note that the color may be fixed.

Subsequently, in step S42, a reference block having a reference width corresponding to each color of the band-like display displayed in the first display area in the second display area at the lower part of the display screen is set, for example, at the center. To be displayed. With it, the first
Are displayed on both sides of blocks of an arbitrary width of any one of the colors of the band-like display displayed in the display area of the number. For this arbitrary block, the color and size of the block to be randomly generated are determined, and the determined block is displayed.

FIG. 4 shows a display example on the display screen of the monitor 9 when the number of band-shaped displays is four.

In FIG. 4, reference numeral 200 denotes a first display area;
00 is the second display area. First display area 200
Indicates a band display 210 of A color, a band display 220 of B color, C
It comprises a color band display 230 and a D color band display 240. The strip display of each color is scrolled from the right side of the screen to the left side. When the game is started, a strip-shaped display in which a cutout portion is generated at an arbitrary position such as 211, 221, 222, 231, 241 as shown in FIG. Disappears from the left edge of. The notch is formed to have a width that is an integral multiple of the width of a reference block described later.

Alternatively, the cutouts may be square, rectangular, or star-shaped, and a block having a shape corresponding to these cutouts may be displayed in the second display area and selected. good.

In the second display area 300, a block display area divided into eight at the center is displayed.
The five central areas are the reference block display area 311
314, and four areas at both ends are display areas 321 to 324 of arbitrary blocks.

In the reference block, reference numeral 311 denotes an A color reference block, 312 denotes a B color reference block, 313 denotes a C color reference block, and 314 denotes a D color reference block.
The arbitrary block is an area where a block of a randomly generated color having an arbitrary multiple of the width of the reference block is appropriately displayed.

Also, indicator displays 331 at both ends,
Reference numeral 332 indicates the number of misses. For example, the indicator 331 on the left side turns on each time an error occurs in which embedding has failed even if the strip display comes to the left end of the screen, and all the right sides turn on. Then left indicator 3
The lighting display shifts to 32.

Subsequently, in step S43, the selected music data stored in the music information storage unit 5 is read, the current music data is extracted from the entire music data, and thereafter the music data is sequentially output. The game can be enjoyed during the music playing time. For example, the song name selection in step S3 may be changed so that a longer song can be selected as the game is cleared.

At the same time, in step S44, the CPU 1 randomly determines whether or not a notch is to be randomly provided for each newly displayed band, and if so, what width is to be set. A scroll display is performed in which each band-shaped display is scrolled from the right side to the left side of the screen at a constant speed while displaying the cutout portion thus formed.

Then, in step S45, it is checked whether or not there is an input on the touch panel 16 in step S45 in order to detect that the gamer performs the operation of embedding by checking the cutout portion of the scroll display. If there is no input on the touch panel, the process proceeds to step S46. The state of the part disappearing from the left end of each of the scroll-displayed strip-shaped displays is checked, and it is checked whether or not the cutout part generated earlier has been scrolled.

If the notch previously generated has been scrolled in step S46, the flow advances to step S47 to check whether all blocks of the same color have been inserted into the notch. If all the blocks of the same color are included in the cutout portion, the process proceeds to step S49, and "GOOD"
Is displayed and the process returns to step S44 to continue the scroll display control.

On the other hand, if it is determined in step S47 that all the blocks of the same color have not been inserted into the cutout portions, the process proceeds to step S4.
Proceeding to step No. 8, "MISS" is displayed, and one of the indicators 331 and 332 is turned on. The lighting order is 33
1 are displayed sequentially from the bottom of the indicator shown in FIG. 1, and then the indicators above the indicator shown in 332 are displayed sequentially. Then, the process returns to step S44.

On the other hand, if the input is a touch panel input in step S45, the flow advances to step S50 to check whether or not the input is a touch on a block area. If it is a touch on the block area, the process proceeds to step S51, and the touched block is held as a selected block.
Then, the process returns to step S44.

On the other hand, if it is determined in step S50 that the touch has not been made on the block area, the flow advances to step S55 to check whether any of the notches has been touched. If any of the notches is touched, step S56
To check whether or not there is a retained block. If there is no held block, step S44
Return to

On the other hand, if there is a block held in step S56, the process proceeds to step S57, where the color of the held block matches the color of the touched band display, and the width of the held block is It is checked whether or not the block has the same width as the width of the not-buried portion of the cutout portion or a width smaller than that of the notched portion. When the color of the retained block matches the color of the touched strip display, and the width of the retained block is not the same as or narrower than the width of the not embedded part of the cutout Does nothing and returns to step S44.

On the other hand, the color of the block held in step S57 matches the color of the strip-shaped display touched, and the width of the held block is the same as the width of the not-buried portion of the notch. If the blocks have the same or narrow width, the process proceeds to step S58, and the held blocks are embedded in the touched cutout portion, for example, left-justified.

Then, the holding state of the block is released, and the flow advances to step S59. In step S59, it is determined whether the held block is an arbitrary block. If the retained block is not an arbitrary block but a reference block, the process returns to step S44. Here, instead of returning to step S44 as it is, the display area of the held reference block may be rotated once, for example, once to display the same reference block again.

If the block held in step S59 is an arbitrary block, the process proceeds to step S60,
The display area of the held arbitrary block is rotated, for example, once, and the color and width of the arbitrary block to be newly displayed here are randomly selected to generate and display a new arbitrary block. Then, the process proceeds to step S44.

On the other hand, if it is determined in step S55 that the touch has not been made in the notch portion, the flow advances to step S61.
It is checked whether or not an arbitrary block is held. If the arbitrary block is not held, the process returns to step S44.

On the other hand, if it is determined in step S61 that the arbitrary block is held, the flow advances to step S60 to update the arbitrary block. In this way, if there is room in the progress of the game and it is desired to replace an arbitrary block, if the user touches an arbitrary block and touches an unrelated area, for example, a display area of an indicator, the arbitrary block is deleted. It can be changed to another block. Therefore, when a large number of blocks of the same color are displayed in an arbitrary block, it is possible to update this and display a more effective arbitrary block.

On the other hand, if the notch previously generated in step S46 has not been scrolled, step S46 is executed.
Proceeding to 65, it is determined whether the performance of the music has ended and the game has ended. If the game has not ended, the process returns to step S44 to continue the scroll display control. On the other hand, if the game is over, the process ends and the routine returns.

As described above, according to the present embodiment, it is possible to provide a game device having a very high taste. In this case as well, the game content is changed each time the game is played, so that a new willingness to challenge can be obtained. In addition, since the game is not particularly complicated, anyone from beginners to experienced players can enjoy the game.

[Second Embodiment] In the first embodiment described above, an example has been described in which the touch panel 16 is provided and the game is advanced by inputting an instruction from the touch panel 16.
