[Overview]
The game of the present embodiment includes a “boy character” as a first character controlled in accordance with the operation of the first player, and an “iron character” as a second character controlled in accordance with the operation of the other hand as the second player. Is a game that fights in virtual space.

  Each player performs an operation input for operating the character that is the operation target of the player and playing against the character that is the operation target of the opponent player. Hereinafter, the operation system of the first player whose operation target is the boy character is referred to as a “robbing character operation system”, and the operation system of the second player whose operation target is an iron character is referred to as a “stolen character operation system”.

(1) Robbery character operation system FIG. 2A is a diagram for explaining the robbery character operation system. When the current game mode is the normal mode, the first player inputs the boy character's movement operation and jump operation. On the other hand, when the current game mode is the control right robbery mode, the first player inputs a moving operation of the iron man character.

(2) Robbed character operation system FIG.2 (b) is a figure for demonstrating a robbed character operation system. When the current game mode is the normal mode, the second player inputs the iron character's moving operation and firing operation. In the normal mode, the aiming cursor is automatically controlled to follow the movement of the boy character until the launch operation is performed. On the other hand, when the current game mode is the control-privilege mode, the second player inputs an aiming cursor movement operation (hereinafter referred to as “cursor direction operation”) and a firing operation.

  Here, the launching operation is a launching operation with a behavior called “rocket punch”, which is a kind of disturbing behavior of the iron character, and when this launching operation is input, the launching of the rocket punch by the iron man character is performed. The action is immediately activated, and the launch of the rocket punch is controlled toward the aiming cursor position at the time of input of the launch operation. On the other hand, when a launch operation is input during the control right stealing mode, after the countdown started at the time of shifting to the control right stealing mode, a rocket punch firing operation by the iron man character is activated. Further, as will be described in detail later, when the mode shifts to the control right seizure mode, the operation of the second player is confused. Therefore, there is a correspondence between the cursor direction operation and the movement direction of the aiming cursor according to the cursor direction operation. Be changed.

  In this way, the first player can take away the control right (operation right) of the moving motion of the iron character that is the operation target of the second player in the control right robbery mode. On the other hand, the second player loses the control right (operation right) of the movement action of the iron character who is the operation target in the control right robbery mode.

  FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating an example of the game screen in the normal mode, and an image representing the game stage 10 set in the virtual space is displayed on the game screen. In FIG. 3, the game stage 10 is divided into 6 × 6 grids, and a boy character PC_1, an iron character PC_2, a mandarin orange box B, and the like are arranged on the game stage 10.

  The winning or losing of the battle in this game is determined by the number of mandarin orange boxes B destroyed by an explosion of an ironman character PC_2 (to be described later) (hereinafter referred to as “the number of destroyed mandarin orange boxes”). Specifically, if the number of destroyed orange boxes exceeds a predetermined number (for example, 10 boxes) from the start of game play until a predetermined time limit elapses, the game ends with the first player as the winner. To do. On the other hand, when the time limit has elapsed with the number of destroyed orange boxes being less than 10, the game ends with the second player as the winner.

  On the game screen, the number obtained by subtracting the current number of destroyed mandarin orange boxes from the number of destroyed mandarin orange boxes (10 boxes), which is a criterion for determining the end of the game, is presented by the number of icons I having the form of “mandarin orange”. That is, the number of icons I is the number of orange boxes B that must be destroyed for the first player to win the game, and for the second player, destruction must be prevented to win the game. This is the number of mandarin orange boxes B.

  On the game screen, the remaining time based on the elapsed time from the start of the game play (“29” seconds in FIG. 3) is presented as the time limit.

  In the normal mode, as described above, the movement of the boy character PC_1 in units of squares is controlled according to the movement operation of the first player, and the jump action, which is a kind of behavior of the boy character PC_1, is controlled according to the jump operation of the first player. By this jump operation, the boy character PC_1 can jump to the height where two mandarin orange boxes B are stacked. The first player moves the boy character PC_1 on the game stage 10 and jumps it onto the orange box.

  Further, the movement of the ironman character PC_2 in units of squares is controlled according to the movement operation of the second player. Further, the aiming cursor Csr is moved in units of squares following the movement of the boy character PC_1. Then, according to the firing operation of the second player, the current position of the aiming cursor (aiming cursor position) is set as the launch target, and the launch operation of the rocket punch toward the launch target is controlled. The second player moves the iron character PC_2 on the game stage 10 and fires a rocket punch by a launch operation to attack the boy character. When the fired rocket punch hits the boy character PC_1, for example, a hit effect process is executed in which the boy character is launched by the rocket punch and falls onto the game stage 10. Here, when the launched rocket punch hits the mandarin orange box B, the mandarin orange box destruction process may be executed to destroy the mandarin orange box. As described above, in the normal mode, the second player obstructs the movement of the boy character PC_1 jumping and climbing on the orange box.

  In the present embodiment, a condition (positional condition) is that the boy character PC_1 is positioned on the orange box B in which two or more boy characters PC_1 are stacked, and the countdown started when the condition is satisfied is completed. Until that time, it becomes the control right seizure mode.

  Further, the movement of the aiming cursor Csr in units of squares is controlled according to the cursor direction operation of the second player, and the launch target of the rocket punch is determined at the aiming cursor position according to the launching operation. The second player sets the target for the boy character PC_1 by moving the aiming cursor Csr to the boy character position, and determines the launch target by the launch operation. When the firing target is confirmed, the second player is in a standby state until the countdown ends.

  For example, in FIG. 4B, the iron character PC_2 is moved to the position of the grid 10a according to the movement operation of the first player, and the aiming cursor Csr is moved to the position of the grid 10b according to the movement operation of the second player.

  When the countdown is completed, it is determined whether or not the aiming cursor position and the boy character position match, and whether or not the shooting operation by the second player has been performed during the countdown. Processing according to is performed.

  FIG. 5 is a diagram showing an example of the game screen when the countdown is completed in the state shown in FIG. 4B (that is, the state where the aiming cursor position and the boy character position do not match). As shown in FIG. 5, when the aiming cursor position and the boy character position do not match at the end of the countdown, or when the shooting operation is not input during the countdown even if they match, The explosion display process of the iron man character is executed, and as a result, the orange boxes arranged around the iron man character are destroyed. In the example of the game screen shown in the figure, for example, the orange boxes B11, B13, B15, and B17 arranged in the 8 squares around the grid (iron character position) 10a corresponding to the current position of the iron character PC_2 in FIG. Destroyed. As described above, in the control right robbery mode, the first player moves the iron character PC_2 to a desired square so that more canister boxes are destroyed by the explosion of the iron character PC_2 after the countdown.

  FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating an example of a game screen when returning to the normal mode after the explosion display process of the iron character PC_2 illustrated in FIG. As shown in FIG. 6, the arrangement positions of the boy character PC_1, the ironman character PC_2, and the remaining orange box B are randomly determined and rearranged, and the normal mode is set. At this time, the number of icons I to be displayed is updated based on the current number of destroyed orange boxes.

  On the other hand, FIG. 7 is a diagram showing an example of a game screen when the aiming cursor position and the boy character position coincide with each other and a launch operation is input during the countdown, and the rocket by the iron character PC_2 The firing operation of the punch RP is activated.

  FIG. 8 is a diagram showing an example of a game screen displayed subsequent to FIG. 7. As shown in FIG. 8A, the hit rocket punch hit stage effect process is executed, and the rocket punch is a boy character. If it collides with PC_1, the boy character PC_1 on the mandarin orange box B31 falls onto the game stage 10 as shown in FIG. As described above, in the control-privilege mode, the second player moves the aiming cursor to the boy character position before the countdown ends and inputs a firing operation so as to avoid the explosion of the iron character PC_2 after the countdown.

[Process flow]
Next, with reference to FIGS. 11 to 13, game processing in the present embodiment will be described. Note that the processing described below is realized by the processing unit 200 reading and executing the game program 620 including the control right seizure control program 621.

  FIG. 11 is a flowchart for explaining the flow of the game processing in the present embodiment. The game calculation unit 220 first assigns an operation system to each of the first operation unit 120 and the second operation unit 140 (step a10). Specifically, for example, the game calculation unit 220 receives a selection operation of a character to be operated, assigns a robbery character operation system to the operation unit on which the boy character selection operation is performed, and performs the selection operation of the iron man character. Assign the robbed character operation system to the selected operation unit.

  Subsequently, the game calculation unit 220 arranges objects such as a boy character, an iron man character, and a mandarin orange box on the game stage, starts the game (step a20), and performs the process of loop A until the end of the game is determined. Are repeatedly executed (step a30 to step a70). At this time, the arrangement orange box data 660 is initialized based on the arrangement position and the total number of the orange boxes arranged in the game space.

  In the loop A, the game calculation unit 220 first determines whether or not two or more boy characters have climbed on the mandarin orange boxes stacked. If not (step a40: NO), the normal mode process is executed. (Step a50). FIG. 12 is a flowchart for explaining the flow of the normal mode processing.

  In the normal mode process, the game calculation unit 220 first controls the movement of the boy character according to the operation signal from the operation unit to which the robbery character operation system is assigned (step b10). Specifically, the game calculation unit 220 controls the movement of the boy character when a movement operation is input, and controls the jump of the boy character when a jump operation is input. Then, the game calculation unit 220 controls the movement of the aiming cursor by following the movement of the boy character (step b20).

Subsequently, the game calculation unit 220 executes processing according to an operation signal from the operation unit to which the robbed character operation system is assigned.
That is, the game calculation unit 220 controls the moving action of the iron man character when the moving operation is input (step b30). In addition, when a firing operation is input, the game calculation unit 220 fixes the aiming cursor at the aiming cursor position at the time of the launching operation, and starts launch control of the rocket punch toward the aiming cursor position (step b40). Here, if the fired rocket punch hits the boy character, the hit effect process is executed.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in step a40 in FIG. 11 that two or more boy characters have climbed the mandarin orange box, the game mode becomes the control right robbery mode and the control right robbery control unit 221 controls the control right. The robbery mode process is executed (step a60). FIG. 13 is a flowchart for explaining the flow of the control right robbery mode process.

  In the control right robbery mode process, the control right robbery control unit 221 first selects one aiming cursor movement control table 640, for example, at random, and performs cursor direction operation and cursor movement by the second player in the control right robbery mode. Correspondence with the direction is set (step c10).

  Then, the control right seizure control unit 221 starts a countdown (for example, 5 seconds) (step c20), and repeatedly executes the process of loop B until the countdown ends (step c30 to step c80).

  In the loop B, the control right robbery control unit 221 first controls the moving motion of the iron character according to the operation signal (that is, the moving operation) from the operation unit to which the robbing character operation system is assigned (step c40).

Subsequently, the control right robbery control unit 221 executes processing according to an operation signal from the operation unit to which the robbed character operation system is assigned.
That is, when a cursor direction operation is input, the control right seizure control unit 221 controls the movement of the aiming cursor according to the correspondence set in step c10 (step c50). In addition, when the launch operation is input (step c60: YES), the control right robbing control unit 221 enters a standby state until the countdown ends (step c70).

  When the loop B is completed, the control-privilege control unit 221 determines whether or not the launch operation has been input. If the input has been input (step c90: YES), the aiming cursor position and the boy character position are subsequently determined. Whether or not matches. If they match (step c100: YES), the control right robbery control unit 221 performs rocket punch firing control toward the aiming cursor position (specifically, the boy character) (step c110). Here, the hit rocket punch hit effect process is executed, and the boy character on the orange box is controlled to fall on the game stage.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in step c90 that the input has not been completed, or if it is determined in step c100 that the aiming cursor position and the boy character position do not match, the control right robbery control unit 221 explodes the iron character. And explosion display processing is performed (step c120).

  Then, the control right robbery control unit 221 updates the number of destroyed orange boxes 663 based on the position of the iron man character (step c130). Then, the control right robbery control unit 221 rearranges the mandarin orange boxes by randomly determining, for example, the relocation positions of the mandarin orange boxes for the difference number between the total mandarin orange box number 661 and the destroyed mandarin orange box number 663 (step c140). At this time, the arrangement position information 665 is updated based on the rearrangement position of the mandarin orange box.

  Returning to FIG. 11, the game calculation unit 220 subsequently determines the end of the game, and ends the process of loop A when a predetermined end condition is satisfied. Specifically, the game calculation unit 220 determines that the game is over when the number of destroyed orange boxes 663 is 10 or more, or when a predetermined time limit has elapsed since the start of game play. .

  When the loop A is completed, the game calculation unit 220 displays the game result (step a80) and ends the process. For example, when the number of destroyed orange boxes 663 is 10 or more and the game is finished, the game calculation unit 220 performs an effect process in which the player (first player) of the operation unit to which the robbery character operation system is assigned is the winner. When the time limit has elapsed and the game is terminated, the effect processing is performed in which the player (second player) of the operation unit assigned the robbed character operation system is the winner.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, the boy character (first character) controlled according to the operation of the first player and the iron character (second character) operated according to the operation of the second player are virtual. In a game in which a battle is performed in a space, the player enters the control right stealing mode on condition that the boy character is positioned on the mandarin orange box stacked (position condition) (operation right stealing condition). In the middle, it is possible to control the movement of the iron character according to the movement operation of the first player and not to control the movement of the iron character according to the movement operation of the second player. According to this, the first player can deprive the control of the moving motion of the iron character who is the operation target of the second player by moving the position of the boy character to a position satisfying the above-mentioned operation authority robbery condition. it can.

  Also, a combination pattern of the cursor direction operation and the direction of movement of the aiming cursor is prepared in advance, and by randomly selecting the combination pattern, each time the mode shifts to the control right stealing mode, The correspondence between the cursor direction operation by the second player and the cursor movement direction can be variably set. Accordingly, it is possible to cause confusion in operation by the second player during the control right robber mode.

[Modification]
The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described above, but the present invention is not limited to those described above, and can be changed as appropriate without departing from the spirit of the invention.

  For example, the robbery character operation system and the robbery character operation system described with reference to FIG. 2 in the above-described embodiment are merely examples, and the present invention is not limited to this. For example, FIG.

  FIG. 15A is a diagram for explaining a modification of the robbery character operation system. According to FIG. 15A, the first player inputs the boy character's movement operation and jump operation when the current game mode is the normal mode. On the other hand, when the current game mode is the control right robbery mode, the first player inputs a boy character jump operation and an iron character move operation.

  FIG. 15B is a diagram for explaining a modification of the robbed character operation system. According to FIG. 15B, when the current game mode is the normal mode, the second player inputs the iron character's movement operation, cursor direction operation, and firing operation. On the other hand, when the current game mode is the control right robbery mode, the second player inputs an iron man dossun activation operation.

  Here, the iron man dossun activation operation is an operation of the behavior called “iron man dosun”, which is a kind of obstruction behavior of iron man characters. Specifically, the game character is vibrated to move the boy character from the orange box. It is a disturbing behavior to drop. When the operation input is made during the control right robbery mode, the iron man's iron action of the iron man character is immediately activated.

  In this modified example, the condition (operating authority stealing condition) is that two or more boy characters are positioned on the mandarin orange boxes stacked, and the control authority stealing mode is set while the condition is satisfied.

  In the control right robbery mode, the jump action of the boy character is controlled according to the jump operation of the first player as described above. Then, similarly to the above-described embodiment, the movement of the iron character in units of squares is controlled according to the moving operation of the first player. In addition, the iron man dosung motion of the iron man character is controlled in accordance with the iron player dossun activation operation of the second player.

  The first player moves the iron character to a desired position on the game stage while avoiding the iron man dosung motion of the iron character by jumping the boy character. On the other hand, the second player causes the boy character to fall from the mandarin orange box by activating the iron man character. Note that if the first player's jump operation is not input during the iron man's ironing action, the control right recovery effect process is executed, the boy character falls on the game stage, and the control right robbery mode ends.

  Also, the first player presses the R button 1218 (see FIG. 1) after moving the iron man character over a desired grid. FIG. 16 is a diagram showing an example of the game screen in this case. As shown in FIG. 16, when the R button 1218 is pressed, the gauge G increases when the R button 1218 is continuously pressed, and the gauge G that becomes full when a predetermined time (for example, 5 seconds) elapses is displayed. If the gauge G becomes full, the explosion display process of the iron character is executed, and as a result, the orange box arranged around the iron character is destroyed. Then, similarly to the above-described embodiment, the placement positions of the boy character, the iron man character, and the remaining mandarin orange box are randomly determined and rearranged, and the normal mode is restored.

  FIG. 17 is a flowchart for explaining the flow of the control right robbery mode process in the present modification. In the control right robbery mode processing shown in FIG. 17, the control right robbery control unit 221 first determines whether or not the R button 1218 is being pressed, and if not (step d10: NO), the robbery character When a movement operation is input from the operation unit to which the operation system is assigned, the movement operation of the iron man character is controlled (step d20).

  Further, when an iron man dossun activation operation is input from the operation unit to which the robbed character operation system is assigned (step d30: YES), the iron man dosseng motion of the iron man character is controlled (step d40). Subsequently, the control right robbery control unit 221 determines whether or not there is a jump operation from the operation unit to which the robbery character operation system is assigned. If there is no jump operation input (step d50: NO), the control right The rebirth effect process is executed (step d60), the process is terminated, and the process returns to the normal mode.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in step d10 that the R button 1218 is being pressed, the control right seizure control unit 221 counts the elapsed time since the R button 1218 was pressed (step d70). It is determined whether or not a predetermined time (for example, 5 seconds) has elapsed.

  Then, if the control right seizure control unit 221 has not elapsed (step d80: NO), the control right seizure control unit 221 proceeds to step d90. In other words, when an iron man dossun activation operation is input from the operation unit to which the robbed character operation system is assigned (step d90: YES), the control right seizure control unit 221 controls the iron man dosseon action of the iron man character ( Step d100). Then, the control right seizure control unit 221 determines whether or not there is a jump operation from the operation unit to which the robbery character operation system is assigned, and when there is no input of the jump operation (step d110: NO), the control right seizure is performed. The effect process is executed (step d120), the process is terminated, and the process returns to the normal mode.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in step d80 that the predetermined time has elapsed, the control right robbery control unit 221 determines that the iron character is to be exploded and performs an explosion display process (step d130).

  Then, the control right robbery control unit 221 updates the number of destroyed orange boxes 663 based on the position of the iron man character (step d140). Then, the control right seizure control unit 221 rearranges the mandarin orange boxes by randomly determining, for example, the relocation positions of the mandarin orange boxes for the number of differences between the total number of mandarin orange boxes 661 and the number of destroyed mandarin orange boxes 663 (step d150) This process ends.

Alternatively, in the above-described modification, when the current game mode is the control-privilege mode, the first player inputs a predetermined direction operation instead of the boy character's jump operation, thereby The operation may be avoided.
For example, in the control right robbery mode, the boy character on the mandarin orange box is controlled to lose balance and fall in a predetermined direction in accordance with the iron man dosun motion of the iron man character. The first player avoids the iron man dosung motion of the iron man character by inputting a direction operation in a direction opposite to the falling direction of the boy character. On the other hand, the second player causes the boy character to fall from the mandarin orange box by activating the iron man character. Then, if the first player does not input a direction operation in the direction opposite to the falling direction within a predetermined time (for example, 0.5 seconds) from the iron man dosung motion of the iron man character, the control right recovery effect process is executed. Then, the boy character falls on the game stage and the control right robbery mode ends.

  In the embodiment described above, when the game mode is the normal mode, the aiming cursor is automatically moved following the movement of the boy character. However, the aiming cursor is based on the cursor direction operation by the second player. It is good also as controlling movement of. In this case, the second player sets a target for the boy character PC_1 by moving the aiming cursor to the grid corresponding to the current position of the boy character, and fires a rocket punch by a launch operation to attack the boy character.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, it is a condition that two or more boy characters are positioned on the mandarin orange box. However, the present invention is not limited to this, for example, a predetermined item that appears on the game stage. It is good also as shifting to control-privilege mode when acquiring. Alternatively, while the value of a predetermined parameter set for the boy character is, for example, a predetermined value set in advance, the control right robbery mode may be set.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, in the control right stealing mode, the first player relinquishes the control right of the movement movement of the iron character that is the operation target of the second player. However, the following may be performed. In other words, the first player may take control of the launching action of the rocket punch by the iron character in the control right stealing mode. As a specific example, for example, the first player inputs a cursor direction operation and a rocket punch firing operation, and destroys the orange box on the game stage. On the other hand, the second player inputs a moving operation, causes the iron character to hit the orange box where the boy character is located, and drops the boy character from the orange box. According to this, the first player can take away the control right (operation right) of the behavioral action of the iron character who is the operation target of the second player in the control right takeover mode. On the other hand, the second player loses the control right (operation right) of the behavioral motion of the iron character who is the operation target in the control right snatch mode.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, when a launch operation is input during the control right stealing mode, after the countdown started at the time of transition to the control right stealing mode, the rocket punch firing operation by the iron character is activated. However, the firing timing of the launching action is not limited to this, and for example, the launching action of the rocket punch by the iron character may be triggered immediately according to the launching operation.

  In the above-described embodiment, the case where the first player who operates the boy character and the second player who operates the iron character is described as a battle. That is, the second player may be a virtual player controlled by computer, and the iron character may be operated by computer control. Alternatively, the first player may be a virtual player controlled by computer, and the boy character may be operated by computer control.

  In addition to the home game machine 1220 shown in FIG. 1, the game apparatus is not limited to a game machine, a portable game machine, a general-purpose computer such as a personal computer, or a large attraction apparatus in which a large number of players participate.
