Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a game in which a space invader and Tetris are mixed, without preparing an additional hardware. <P>SOLUTION: The game is designed to destroy a hostile aircraft so that a controlled aircraft does not contact a block of a Tetris. By shooting a missile to a hostile aircraft from the controller, a block of a Tetris appears. A block of the Tetris can be operated by a missile from the controller. Four types of missiles can be shot from the controller, making it possible (1) to move a block of the Tetris one square to the left, (2) to rotate the block counterclockwise through 90°, (3) to move it one square to the right, and (4) to cause it to fall at a high speed. By preparing such four types of missiles, the game can be played on a conventional game machine or personal computer. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT

Description

  The present invention relates to a video game, and more particularly to a game operation method.

  Conventionally, as shown in FIG. 2, a game called a space invader can be played. Moreover, as shown in FIG. 3, it can play with the game called Tetris.

  However, there is no game that combines these two games. In addition, the game performance is poor simply by allowing these two games to be performed simultaneously in parallel. In order to make a game that can be called fusion, a new game characteristic must be included.

  To realize this game, you must be able to operate both the aircraft that launches missiles with Space Invader and the blocks that fall with Tetris.

  An object of the present invention is to enable a game in which space invaders and tetris are fused as shown in FIG.

  In the following, the aircraft that launches missiles with the Space Invader is called the pilot, and the enemy with the Space Invader is called the enemy aircraft. A block that falls by Tetris is called a block.

  The game of the present invention ends when all the pilots are destroyed or invaded by enemy aircraft. Pilots are destroyed when they hit missiles from enemy aircraft. So far, it is the same as the space invader. The pilot is also destroyed when it comes into contact with falling blocks or blocks stacked from below.

  As shown in 1 of FIG. 4, the enemy aircraft holds a block, and which block is held is displayed. When a missile launched from a pilot hits an enemy aircraft, the enemy aircraft is destroyed and becomes only a block, as shown at 2 in FIG. Like Tetris, the blocks fall and pile up, and the blocks that are filled with blocks without any horizontal gaps disappear.

  Four types of missiles can be launched from the pilot as shown in FIG. If a missile hits an enemy aircraft, the enemy aircraft disappears and becomes a block, regardless of the type of missile. When a missile hits a block, the following operations are performed according to the type of missile. There are four types: the block moves 1 square to the left (1), the block rotates 90 ° counterclockwise (2), the block moves 1 square to the right (3), and the block drops at high speed (4). In this way, the block is operated with a missile from the pilot.

  The game of the present invention is a game that destroys all enemy aircraft while preventing the blocks from being stacked up to the position of the pilot. Since the blocks held by the enemy aircraft are displayed, a new game characteristic of aiming at the enemy aircraft holding the necessary blocks is born.

  Since the blocks are operated by missiles from the pilot, you can play on conventional game consoles and computers without preparing new hardware.

  The game of the present invention suits the tastes of people who have enjoyed conventional games in the past, and can be enjoyed by those who are away from the current game. In addition, people who enjoy the current game will be interested in the old game.

  The game of the present invention can be executed on a conventional video game machine or personal computer.

  As shown in FIG. 6, in the case of a game machine having four buttons and a cross button, four types of missiles are fired by pressing the four buttons respectively. The four types of missiles are those shown in FIG. The cross button is used to move the pilot.

  When it is performed on a personal computer connected to a joystick, four keys are assigned to the four buttons. In this case, even if these four keys are pressed, the missile is not fired, and the missile type setting only changes. Which setting is displayed on the screen, and the type of missile set when the joystick button is pressed is fired. The joystick is also used to move the pilot. In the case of a game machine that can use a button not only on a personal computer but also on the side where the movement of the pilot is operated, a missile is launched by this button. The other four buttons are used to change the missile type settings.

One display screen in the game of the present invention. One display screen of a game called a conventional space invader. One display screen of a game called the conventional Tetris. One form of operation | movement of the enemy aircraft which appears in the game of this invention is shown. [Explanation of Symbols] 1 Form before the enemy aircraft hits the missile 2 Form after the enemy aircraft hits the missile 4 types of missiles used in the game of the present invention. It is an enlarged view and is actually about one-tenth the size of an enemy aircraft. [Explanation of Symbols] 1 Missile that moves one block to the left 2 Missile that rotates the block 90 ° counterclockwise 3 Missile that moves the block 1 square to the right 4 Missile that causes the block to drop at high speed The role of the button of the game machine in the game of this invention is shown. [Explanation of Symbols] 1 Button for launching a missile of 1 in FIG. 2 2 Button for firing a missile in 2 of FIG. 5 3 Button for firing a missile in 3 of FIG. 5 4 Button for firing a missile of 4 in FIG. Cross button to control the movement of the pilot
