<Embodiment 1>

  A game program according to the present invention is a game program for processing the progress of a game for moving a plurality of objects arranged on a game field, wherein the computer receives a reception function, an association function, a movement function, and a display process. Realize functionality.

  The reception function receives operation information related to a touch operation from a predetermined input surface capable of detecting a touch operation by a user. For example, the operation may be an operation in which the player gives an input to the computer by bringing a finger or an indicator (for example, a stylus) into contact with or approaching the input surface. When the operation information indicates one coordinate, the operation information indicates the coordinate, and when the operation information is indicated by a plurality of coordinates, the start point (the first touched point) and the end point (the touch is continuously detected). , Information on a locus (information representing a change in coordinates including the coordinates of the start point and the coordinates of the end point) based on the point that can no longer be detected. In the following description, the touch operation is described as designating the coordinates of one point, and the case where the locus is shown and the locus is a substantially straight line is described as the swipe operation. The direction operation indicated by the swipe operation refers to a direction from the start point to the end point.

  The association function associates a plurality of objects as a group. When associating a plurality of objects, objects included in a predetermined range may be associated, objects in a predetermined positional relationship (for example, a positional relationship arranged in a line) may be associated, and an enemy is in the game. When appearing, all objects that act as allies except the enemy may be associated with each other. As a method of association, for example, a plurality of objects may be collectively stored as one group, a plurality of objects may be associated with each other, or one of the plurality of objects may be associated with the remaining objects. It may be associated with all objects.

  An object is, for example, any electronic data (for example, a character, an item, a card, a building, etc.) used by a player as a resource in the game in a game realized by the game program or other games. It can be moved (movable). In the following description, the object is described as user characters 300a to 300j.

  When the movement function receives a direction operation as operation information while receiving a designation operation for designating a first object that is one of a plurality of objects as operation information, The remaining objects excluding one object are moved as a group in the direction indicated by the direction operation.

  In the following description, the first object corresponds to the user unit 300j in FIG. 6 as an example. In the case of FIG. 6, the remaining objects correspond to the user units 300 a to 300 i.

  Further, in the game field, a non-movable area or an obstacle object in which the object cannot proceed is set, and the moving function is a non-movable area in which the second object that is one of the remaining objects is not movable in the movement by the movement process. Alternatively, when the movement is blocked by the obstacle object, the second object is not moved, but remains placed at the same position on the game field as when the direction operation was accepted.

The immovable area refers to an area in which an object cannot move in the game field. In the following description, the game field in which the game medium moves is described as an example of a grid (see, for example, FIG. 2) Among these squares, squares 5g, 6g, 5h, and 6h are applicable. Here, when the square 5g is described as an example with reference to FIG. 2, the square 5g means a square in the fifth column and the g-th row. In the following description, the disturbing object corresponds to a rock, a block, a wall, a scum, or the like in the modified example (1).
In the following description, the second object corresponds to the user unit 300d in FIG. 7 and the user unit 300d in FIG. 8 as an example.

  In the game program, when the second object is not moved in the direction indicated by the direction operation and there is a remaining object other than the second object on the straight line in the direction indicated by the direction operation. The moving function does not move any remaining objects other than the second object.

  Here, the remaining objects other than the second object existing on the straight line in the direction indicated by the direction operation correspond to the user unit 300h in FIG. 7 and the user unit 300h in FIG. 8 as an example in the following description.

In addition, when the object has a direction, the game program receives a direction operation as operation information in a state where the computer receives a designation operation for designating a location other than a plurality of objects as operation information. In this case, a direction changing function for changing the direction of each of the plurality of objects with respect to the direction indicated by the direction operation is realized.
The direction changing function may be any function that changes the direction of an object based on a user operation, and is described as a modified example (5) in the following.

  The game program according to one aspect of the present invention can be implemented with at least the following three configurations. That is, the game program may be implemented in a configuration in which (a) a computer functions as a client device (for example, a smartphone, a personal computer, etc.), and the game program is executed in the client device, (b) The computer functions as a server device (for example, a mainframe, a cluster computer, an arbitrary computer that can provide game services to an external device, etc.), and part or all of the game program is executed in the server device, The result of the processed process may be returned to the client device, or (c) the process included in the game program may be arbitrarily shared between the client device and the server device. Good.

  Therefore, the display function realized by the game program includes (a) an external display device (for example, a display unit provided in a portable terminal) connected to the computer via a predetermined network (for example, the Internet) so as to be communicable ) May display the game screen on the display device by outputting information (for example, display information), or (b) by outputting the display information to a display device provided in the computer, The game screen may be displayed on the display device.

(A) A client device that is communicably connected to a computer via a predetermined network (for example, the Internet) includes a predetermined input device, and the client device is input via the predetermined input device. The operation information may be transmitted to the computer, and the operation information acquisition function realized on the computer by the game program may acquire the operation information. (B) The computer may The operation information acquisition function may acquire the operation information via the predetermined input device.
<Overview>

  The game according to the first embodiment is one of the object groups operated by the user (hereinafter referred to as user unit groups) (in this embodiment, the user unit 300f set as the user unit leader). Is intended to reach a destination arranged somewhere on a game field (hereinafter referred to as a map) set in a grid pattern from the initial arrangement position. Each square has a specification that allows only one unit to be placed. In the game, the user defeats or replaces an object (hereinafter referred to as an enemy unit) that becomes an enemy (obstacle), and moves the user unit 300f to a destination within a predetermined number of turns (number of operations) or within a predetermined time. Must be reached.

  In the game, the user unit group is configured to move one square toward the direction indicated by the swipe operation collectively by one swipe operation on the touch panel of the user.

Based on this specification, when the user performs a swipe operation while performing a touch operation that designates one of the unit groups, the position of the user unit designated by the touch operation remains fixed in the game. (The designated user unit is not moved), and the remaining user unit groups are moved together by one square in the direction indicated by the swipe operation.
Thereby, the game which concerns on this Embodiment 1 can provide a highly strategic game in the movement of a unit group.
<Configuration>
Hereinafter, the information processing apparatus 100 according to the first embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating an example of a main configuration of the information processing apparatus 100. The information processing apparatus (computer) 100 is an information processing apparatus capable of executing a game program including processing described below. As long as it is a device that can execute the processing, the specific device may be, for example, a smartphone, a tablet terminal, a consumer game machine, a mobile phone, a personal computer, or other electronic devices. The game program includes a display (display unit), an input surface capable of detecting touch input, a memory, and one or more processors capable of executing one or more programs stored in the memory. Can be particularly suitably executed in a multi-function device (for example, a smart phone or the like).
As illustrated in FIG. 1, the information processing apparatus 100 includes an input unit 110, a storage unit 120, a control unit 130, and a display unit 140.

  The input unit 110 includes an input surface that can detect a touch input, and has a function of receiving an input from a user and transmitting the received input content to the control unit 140. The input unit 110 is realized by, for example, a touch pad provided in the mobile terminal 110, and in this case, input coordinate information on the touch panel touched by the user, or trajectory information in the case of a swipe operation is transmitted. . The swipe operation is an operation of sliding a finger while touching the input surface, and is used to specify the direction in which the user unit is moved in the present embodiment. The swipe operation is a kind of touch operation and can be regarded as a set of touch operations. A point (end point) where the touch is separated from the first touched point (start point) is detected, and the point from the start point to the end point is detected. This is an operation for specifying the direction as the direction the user wants to specify. For example, if the swipe operation slides the finger from the right to the left toward the input surface, this means moving the user unit in the left direction of the screen. For example, the swipe operation moves upward toward the input surface. If the finger is slid downward, it means that the user unit is moved downward (frontward) on the screen.

  The input surface of the input unit 110 corresponds to the display screen of the display unit 140, and the input coordinate system of the input unit 110 and the coordinate system of the display screen of the display unit 140 are in a correspondence relationship. That is, for example, if an object displayed on the game screen displayed on the display unit 140 is touched, an operation on the object is executed.

  The storage unit 120 has a function of storing the game program according to the first embodiment and various data necessary for executing the game program. The storage unit 120 is typically realized by various recording media such as a hard disk drive (HDD), a solid state drive (SSD), and a flash memory.

  The storage unit 120 holds map information 200 used by the game program. The map information 200 is information indicating the map state and unit arrangement position. Details of the map information 200 will be described later. Although not shown, the storage unit 120 holds group information (not shown) regarding user unit groups to be moved together, and the group information includes an identifier of each user unit group. When a user's swipe operation is detected, each unit included in the group information advances by one square in the direction indicated by the swipe direction unless the progress is prevented.

  In addition, the storage unit 120 includes user units used in the game, parameters of the enemy units (for example, HP indicating the physical strength of the units, usable special abilities (for example, magic, skills, etc.), attack power, defense power, speed, etc. Etc.) is also remembered.

The control unit 130 is a processor having a function of executing the progress of the game according to the present embodiment. When the control unit 130 accepts activation of the game, the control unit 130 causes the display unit 140 to display a game screen, and proceeds with the game in accordance with a user input from the input unit 110. The control unit 130 provides a stage where the user plays, and prepares the next stage when the user can reach the destination where the user unit is set. Each stage has different map shapes, enemy unit placement positions, and enemy unit placement.
The control unit 130 includes a reception unit 131, a movement processing unit 132, a battle processing unit 133, an association unit 134, and a display processing unit 135.

The movement processing unit 132 has a function of executing a user unit group movement process according to an input from the input unit 110 and an enemy unit movement process according to a predetermined algorithm. When a touch input is transmitted from the input unit 110, the movement processing unit 132 specifies an input position of the touch operation, and specifies a user unit displayed corresponding to the input position. Further, when the swipe input is transmitted from the input unit 110, the movement processing unit 132 specifies the start point and the end point of the swipe input on the game screen, and sets the direction from the start point to the end point as the moving direction of the user unit. Determine as.
The movement processing unit 132 basically executes two types of movement processing for user unit movement processing. That is, the following two types.

  (1) When the swipe operation is transmitted from the input unit 110, the movement processing unit 132 collectively moves the user unit group and moves it by one square in the direction indicated by the swipe operation.

  (2) The movement processing unit 132 fixes the user unit designated by the touch operation when the swipe operation is transmitted from the input unit 110 and when the detection of the touch operation is further transmitted ( And move the remaining user unit groups together by one square in the direction indicated by the swipe operation.

  In performing these two types of movement processing, the movement processing unit 132 determines whether or not each user unit group can be moved, determines a movement destination when it can be moved, and then moves the user unit groups that can be moved together. . In addition to the designation by the user shown in the above movement process (2), there are cases where there is a user unit fixed to the planned transfer destination when the planned transfer destination cannot be moved. Hereinafter, the case where the planned destination is not immovable and there is no user unit fixed to the planned destination will be expressed as the planned destination being free.

  When moving the user unit group in the direction indicated by the swipe operation, the movement processing unit 132 determines the planned movement destination from the user unit on the head side, and determines the planned movement destinations of all user units (does not move the user unit group). And user units that are not fixed are moved together. Here, if there are multiple user units at the head when proceeding in the direction indicated by the swipe operation, the order is selected from the user units at the head (in order according to a predetermined criterion even in random selection). (It may be).

  First, the movement processing unit 132 determines a combination of identifiers of the user unit and the enemy unit that will execute a battle (match) when an enemy unit exists in the cell to which the user unit is scheduled to move. And request battle processing. Then, the notification of the end of the battle process is received from the battle processing unit 133. When the notification includes enemy unit information in the notification, the movement processing unit 132 moves the enemy unit backward by one square in the direction indicated by the swipe operation. Further, if another enemy unit is arranged in the direction to be retracted at that time, the enemy unit is also retracted.

  Next, in order to move the user unit, the movement processing unit 132 determines a movement destination from the user unit positioned at the head in the direction indicated by the swipe operation. When there are a plurality of user units located at the head, one of them is selected one by one, and each destination is determined. At this time, if the movement destination is immovable, the user unit scheduled to move to the immovable cell is fixed (not moved) at the position before the movement. In addition, even when there is a user unit that is going to move to a cell with a fixed user unit (a user unit specified by a user's touch operation and a user unit that is moving to a non-movable cell), Secure the user unit.

After the battle process and the fixing of the user unit, the movement processing unit 132 moves a movable user unit group, that is, a non-fixed user unit, by one square toward the direction indicated by the swipe operation. After the movement, the fixed user unit is released.
Although the movement of the user unit has been described in detail here, the enemy unit also moves in the same manner as the user unit according to a predetermined algorithm.
The movement processing unit 132 transmits the movement result of the movement processing to the display processing unit 135.

  In the movement by the movement processing unit 132, the battle processing unit 133 determines that the user unit and the enemy unit are in a case where an enemy unit exists in the destination cell of the user unit or a user unit exists in the destination cell of the enemy unit. Have a function to execute battle processing between In response to a request from the movement processing unit 132, the battle processing unit 133 executes a battle process between the notified units.

  Parameters (for example, HP (physical strength), attack power, defense power, etc.) are set for each of the user unit and the enemy unit, and the battle processing unit 133 performs a process related to the battle according to a predetermined battle algorithm. Run. In the battle process, when the user unit is defeated, information identifying the defeated user unit is deleted from map information 200 described later, and when the user unit wins, information identifying the defeated enemy unit is deleted. To do. As a result of the battle process, the battle processing unit 133 determines that the user unit's HP is greater than 0 and the enemy unit's HP is 0, the user unit's HP is 0, the user unit's HP is 0, and the enemy unit's HP is 0. If the value is greater than 0, the user unit is defeated. Further, the battle processing unit 133 makes a draw when both HPs are not 0 (HP remains) as a result of the battle processing. Here, the battle processing unit 133 may display an effect indicating victory, defeat, etc. related to the battle on the screen.

  Then, the battle processing unit 133 transmits a notification of the end of the battle processing (including information on the drawn enemy unit) to the movement processing unit 132 and transmits display data related to the battle to the display processing unit 135.

  The association unit 134 has a function of associating a group of user units that move as a group and storing them in the storage unit 120. In the present embodiment, association section 134 associates user units 300a to 300j as a group.

The display processing unit 135 generates display data corresponding to the movement result transmitted from the movement processing unit 132 and the battle result transmitted from the battle processing unit 133, and writes the display data in the frame memory of the display unit 140.
The display unit 140 is a monitor having a function of receiving an instruction from the control unit 130 and displaying an image.
In the present embodiment, the input unit 110 and the display unit 140 are realized by a touch panel formed in a superimposed manner.
The above is the configuration of the information processing apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment.
<Data>
FIG. 2 is an example of a data conceptual diagram of map information 200 referred to by the game program, and is also information indicating an arrangement position of each unit.

  The map information 200 corresponds to a game field configured in a grid pattern on the game screen. That is, each square indicated by each row and each column of the map information 200 corresponds to the state of each square displayed as a game field. The state of each square means whether a unit is arranged, is movable, or other objects are arranged.

  In the map information 200, when a unit is arranged in each square, a unique identifier of the unit is associated. In addition, information indicating that movement is not possible is associated with a cell having no cell, that is, a cell in which the unit cannot proceed. In FIG. 2, “x” is described as information indicating that movement is not possible. Although not shown, the map information 200 indicates “goal” for the set destination square.

As illustrated in FIG. 2, for example, the user unit “300i” is arranged in the cell “2b”, and the enemy unit “310b” is arranged in the cell “3g”. It can also be seen that the square “5 g” is immovable.
With the map information 200, the control unit 130 can manage each unit and its movement.
<Operation>

FIG. 3 is a flowchart illustrating an example of the operation of the information processing apparatus 100. In the present embodiment, the movement process of the user unit group when there is an input by the user will be described, and the description of other game elements will be omitted on the assumption that the conventional game specifications can be applied.
The input unit 110 of the information processing apparatus 100 detects a swipe operation from the user and transmits it to the control unit 130 (step S301).

At this time, if the input unit 110 detects a touch operation by the user, the input unit 110 transmits the fact to the control unit 130 sequentially (for example, every second). When it is transmitted that the touch operation of the user is detected, the movement processing unit 132 fixes (does not move) the user unit associated with the coordinates of the touch operation (step) S303).
If the touch operation is not detected when the swipe operation is performed (NO in step S302), the process proceeds to step S304.

  The movement processing unit 132 determines whether or not there is a user unit that has a cell in which an enemy unit is arranged among the user unit group as a planned movement destination (step S304). The movement processing unit 132 determines the determination using the map information 200.

  When there is a user unit whose destination is the mass where the enemy unit is located (YES in step S304), the movement processing unit 132 informs the battle processing unit 133 the combination information of the user unit and the enemy unit that collide with each other. Is transmitted and a battle process is requested (step S305).

The battle processing unit 133 executes battle processing between the transmitted user unit and enemy unit. The battle processing unit 133 executes battle processing in accordance with a predetermined battle algorithm based on the transmitted user unit parameters and enemy unit parameters (step S306). If there is a defeated unit according to the battle processing, the battle processing unit 133 deletes the unit from the map information 200 and notifies the movement processing unit 132 together with the result that the battle processing has ended. If there is a drawn enemy unit, the movement processing unit 132 moves the enemy unit backward by one square in the direction indicated by the swipe direction.
Then, the movement processing unit 132 determines whether to move each user unit.

  When the direction indicated by the swipe operation is the traveling direction of the user unit group, the movement processing unit 132 determines whether or not the user unit can move in order from the head.

  The movement processing unit 132 determines whether or not the user unit that determines whether or not movement is possible is impossible to move to the cell to be moved (step S306). The movement processing unit 132 determines whether or not the planned movement destination is immovable depending on whether or not the movement is set in the map information 200, or whether or not a user unit fixed to the planned movement destination is arranged. Determine whether.

  When the user unit cannot be moved to the planned movement destination (YES in step S306), the user unit is fixed (not moved), and it is determined whether or not the next user unit can be moved. If the destination of the user unit is not immovable, it is determined whether or not the next user unit can be moved.

  After determining whether or not the movement destination is immovable for all user units, the movement processing unit 132 moves one unit of unfixed user units together in the direction indicated by the swipe operation. Let

When the process shown in FIG. 3 is repeated and the user unit 300f having the crown can reach the destination set in any square on the map, the user has cleared the map. Will challenge the map.
<Specific examples of user unit movement>
From here, a specific example of the movement of the user unit using the screen example will be described.
(Display example)
FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating a display example of the game screen.

A game screen as shown in FIG. 4 is displayed according to an instruction from the display processing unit 135 included in the control unit 130. The display unit 140 displays a 3D map of the shape indicated by the map information 200 on the game screen, and the user units 300a to 300i and the enemy units 310a to 310f are arranged at the positions indicated by the map information 200. 3D display. The user operates the user unit groups 300a and 300i to cause the user unit 300f having a crown to reach the destination. In the present embodiment, it is assumed that only one unit can be arranged in one cell.
(Example of movement by swipe operation)
FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating a specific example of movement of the user unit on the screen, that is, when the user performs a swipe operation on the input unit 110.
Assume that a swipe operation is performed on the screen of the information processing apparatus 100 in the display state of FIG. 4 by sliding a finger from right to left as shown in FIG.
In this case, the movement processing unit 132 moves the user unit groups 300a to 300j collectively in the left direction of the screen.

  Specifically, the movement processing unit 132 determines the movement destination for each user unit from the head side in the movement direction indicated by the swipe operation, and moves them together. In the case of FIG. 5, the top side of the user unit group is swiped from left to right and points to the left, so that the user units 300a, 300b, 300c, and 300d are the top user units. . The movement processing unit 132 determines a planned movement destination from these user units 300a to 300d.

  The movement processing unit 132 does not fix the user unit 300a because the planned movement destination e1 of the user unit 300a is vacant. Similarly, the user units 300b to 300d are not fixed because the destinations 2e to 4e are vacant. Although the user unit 300a is arranged at the planned movement destination of the user unit 300e but is not fixed, it can be moved, that is, the planned movement destination 2d is vacant and is not fixed. Similarly, the user units 300f to 300h are not fixed because the planned destinations 2d, 3d, and 4d are vacant. Also, the user units 300i and 300j are not fixed because the planned destinations 2c and 3c are empty. Accordingly, all the user units are not fixed, and the movement processing unit 132 moves all the user units 300a to 300j together by one square in the direction (left direction of the screen) indicated by the swipe operation.

As a result, as shown in FIG. 5B, each user unit moves to the left by one square. The operation is a basic user unit group moving operation, and the user units 300a to 300j are moved together in the direction indicated by the swipe operation by one swipe operation.
(Example of movement by swiping while specifying a user unit)
FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating a specific example of movement of the user unit group when the user performs a swipe operation while performing a touch operation for designating a specific user unit.
As shown in FIG. 6A, it is assumed that the user performs a swipe operation of sliding a finger from the right to the left while touching the user unit 300j.

  Then, as shown in FIG. 6B, the position of the user unit 300j touched by the user is fixed, and the remaining user units 300a to 300i move to the left by one square.

  Specifically, the movement processing unit 132 fixes the user unit 300j designated by the touch operation so as not to move. Here, in order to clarify the designation, the designated user unit is indicated by a cursor, but this is not essential. Next, the movement processing unit 132 does not fix the user unit 300a because the planned movement destination 2e of the user unit 300a is vacant. Similarly, the user units 300b to 300d are not fixed because the destinations 3e, 4e, and 5e are vacant. Since the planned moving destination 2d of the user unit 300e is vacant, it is not fixed. Similarly, the user units 300f to 300i are not fixed because the destinations 3d, 4d, 5d, and 2c are vacant. The user unit 300j is already fixed. Therefore, the user units 300a to 300i except for the user unit 300j are not fixed, and the movement processing unit 132 collects all the user units 300a to 300i except for the user unit 300j, and displays the direction (left of the screen) Move one square toward (direction).

By adopting this moving operation, it becomes possible to move the remaining user units in a lump while leaving some user units (while not moving them), thereby realizing a more strategic moving operation. be able to. Further, by moving the remaining user units while preventing some of the user units from being moved by the user's selection operation, the formation of the user units can be transformed into the user's desired shape. In order to reach the destination, it is necessary to leave more user units, so the user must appropriately change the formation while taking into account enemy units and obstacles provided on the map. As a result, the game can be made more strategic.
(Example of movement when the user unit moves to an immovable area)
FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating an example of the movement of the user unit group when there is a user unit trying to move to a non-movable cell.

As shown in FIG. 7A, it is assumed that user unit groups 300a to 300j are arranged on the map. As shown in FIG. 7A, there is no grid on the left side of the screen of the user unit 300d, and movement is impossible.
In such an arrangement state, it is assumed that a swipe operation for sliding a finger from right to left is performed as shown in FIG.

  Then, in the case of the user unit 300d, it cannot move because the left direction, that is, the planned destination 5g is a non-movable area. Therefore, the user unit 300d is fixed at that position (mass 5f). That is, the user unit 300d is not moved.

  Further, since the user unit 300d is fixed, the user unit 300d is arranged in a fixed state at the planned movement destination 5f for the user unit 300h. Therefore, the user unit 300h cannot move because the planned movement destination 5f is not vacant, so the user unit 300h is also fixed.

Therefore, as a result of the swipe operation performed on the arrangement state of FIG. 7A, as shown in FIG. 7B, the user units 300a, 300b, 300c, 300e, 300f, 300g, 300i, and 300j are collectively collected. The two units of the user unit 300d whose movement destination is immovable and the user unit 300h whose movement destination is filled with the user unit 300d are not moved, but moved to the position. Remains. That is, as shown in FIG. 7A, the user units 300d and 300e arranged in the cells 5f and 5e, respectively, remain as they are even after the left swipe operation by the user. It becomes a state. Since the user needs to leave more user units in order to reach the destination, the user must appropriately deform the formation while considering the shape of the map.
(Processing and movement example when a battle occurs due to movement)
Here, processing when an enemy unit is present at the destination of the user unit and movement at that time will be described with reference to FIG.
As shown in FIG. 8, it is assumed that the user units 300a to 300c and the enemy units 310a to 310c are arranged to face each other.

  In this state, it is assumed that the user performs a swipe operation to slide his / her finger from left to right as shown in FIG. Therefore, in this case, since the process proceeds in the left direction of the screen, the user units 300a to 300d on the left side of the screen become the first unit.

  Then, in this case, since the enemy units 310a to 310c are arranged in the respective destination plans 2g, 3g, and 4g of the user units 300a to 300c, the movement processing unit 132 collides with the battle processing unit 133. Request battle processing between matching units.

  Here, it is assumed that the user unit 300a is defeated by the enemy unit 310a, the user unit 300b is drawn with the enemy unit 310b (both HPs have not become 0 in the battle), and the user unit 300c wins the enemy unit 310c. In this case, the battle processing unit 133 deletes the user unit 300a and the enemy unit 310c from the map information 200. Then, the display unit 135 displays a screen erased by the user unit 300a and the enemy unit 310c.

  Thereafter, the battle processing unit 133 notifies the movement processing unit 132 of the end of the battle process. The notification includes information on the enemy unit 310b. When the notification of the end of the battle process is received, the movement processing unit 132 moves the enemy unit 310b backward by one square in the direction indicated by the swipe direction (move left by one square). Moreover, since the enemy unit 310e is arranged in the movement direction of the enemy unit 310b, the movement processing unit 132 also moves the enemy unit 310e backward by one square. As a result, the enemy unit 310b moves to the cell 3h, and the enemy unit 310e moves to the cell 3i. The movement processing unit 132 performs the movement processing of the remaining user units 300b to 300j in the direction indicated by the swipe operation (the screen left direction in the case of FIG. 8).

  The movement processing unit 132 determines a movement destination from the first user unit (300b to 300d) in the movement direction of the remaining user unit group (300b to 300j). First, the movement processing unit 132 does not fix the user unit 300b because the enemy unit 310b moves backward by one cell due to the draw in the battle and the planned destination 3g is vacant. The user unit 300c is not fixed because the planned destination 4g destroys the enemy unit 310c and is vacant. The user unit 300d is fixed because the planned destination 5g is not movable and is not available. Since the user unit 300e is a blank cell because the user unit 300a has been defeated in the battle, the planned destination 2f is vacant, and is not fixed. The user unit 300f is not fixed because the planned destination 3f is empty. The user unit 300g is not fixed because the planned destination 4f is vacant. The user unit 300h is fixed because the user unit 300d fixed to the planned destination is not disposed and free. The user unit i is not fixed because the planned destination 2e is empty. The user unit 300j is not fixed because the planned destination 3e is vacant.

  Thereafter, the movement processing unit 132 moves the user units 300b, 300c, 300e, 300f, 300g, 300i, and 300j that are not fixed to the left by one block. After the movement, the movement processing unit 132 releases the fixed user unit.

  Therefore, as a result of the user's swipe operation in FIG. 8A, as shown in FIG. 8B, the user unit 300a is removed from the map, and the user units 300d and 300h do not move, and the user unit 300b, 300c, 300e, 300f, 300g, 300i, and 300j move one cell to the left.

  The user moves the user unit 300f to the destination by making use of the movement as shown in FIGS. If you move 1 square, you will consume 1 turn, and if you can move the user unit to the destination within a given turn, you will move to the next stage, and if you can't move, you will start over. .

While the user unit group is operated by only two types of simple operations (swipe operation and swipe operation by designating the user unit) as described above, the operation to reach the destination is simple. Can also provide deep games.

<Modification>

  Although one embodiment of the invention according to the present invention has been described in the first embodiment and the second embodiment, it goes without saying that the idea according to the present invention is not limited thereto. Hereinafter, various modifications included as the idea of the present invention will be described.

  (1) In the above embodiment, an example of a game in which an enemy unit appears as a failure of the user unit is shown, but the case of the failure of the user unit is not limited thereto. An obstacle object (for example, a rock, a block, a wall, a building, or a puddle) that hinders the progress of the user unit may be arranged as an obstacle. In the case of rocks, blocks, walls, buildings, etc., parameters such as HP and defensive power may be set and be destructible, and in the case of puddles, some game processing is used. Then, the user character may be allowed to proceed (for example, the puddle is frozen, or soil is put in the puddle and used as a road).

(2) In the above embodiment, an example of a game in which a user moves a user unit while destroying an enemy unit is shown. However, this is not the only case, and an object that can be operated by the user appears. If the game includes a process of moving the objects together, the operation method of the object (user unit) according to the above embodiment can be applied. In that case, the object (user unit) according to the above embodiment is not limited to the game, but also when the object group displayed on the screen is operated collectively (the display position is changed). The operation method is applicable.
(3) In the above embodiment, an example of a game in which a user unit is moved on a grid-like map is shown, but this is not limited thereto.

  The game may be configured such that the user unit can move freely on the game field. For example, the user unit group is configured to follow the position where the user touches the input unit 110. Then, in a state where one of the user unit groups continues to be specified by a touch operation, the remaining user unit is touched with respect to the input unit 110 with another finger. It may be configured to follow a certain position.

  (4) In the above embodiment, the battle process is performed between the user unit and the enemy unit based on the respective parameters. However, if the moving side comes into contact with the enemy, the moving side always wins. You can also simplify the battle.

(5) In the above embodiment, as a method for operating the user unit, in the specification of moving the user unit as a whole, the specific unit is designated by a touch operation, and the specific unit is fixed (not moved). An example is shown in which the remaining user units are advanced by one square.
As a special operation method for these user units, the following examples may be implemented.

  For example, assume that a direction parameter is set for each unit (user unit, enemy unit) on the game. Then, as shown in FIG. 9A, it is assumed that the swipe operation is executed in a state where the user is touching a place other than the user unit. Then, as shown in FIG. 9A, the user unit that has faced the left side of the screen is displayed so that it faces the front side of the screen, as shown in FIG. 9B.

  That is, when the information processing apparatus 100 detects a swipe operation in a state where the input unit 110 detects a touch operation that designates a location where the user unit is not arranged, the user unit direction changing process and the result are detected. The display process indicating is performed.

  The operation of the information processing apparatus 100 including the direction changing process in this case can be implemented, for example, by changing the flowchart shown in the third embodiment to the flowchart shown in FIG. In the flowchart of FIG. 10, the difference from FIG. 3 is that, when there is a touch operation, a determination process is performed as to whether the designated part by the touch operation is a user unit or other (step S1001), and the user When a location other than the unit is designated, the direction changing process (step S1002) for changing the direction of the user unit in the direction indicated by the swipe operation is performed.

  When the direction is set to the unit in this way, if the setting is such that the unit can only move in the direction that the unit is facing, consider how the user unit can be advanced to reach the destination. Therefore, the game can be made more strategic.

Also, when performing a battle, for example, when a user unit (enemy unit) attacks an enemy unit (user unit), when attacking from behind the opponent, compared to attacking from the front of the opponent, Processing that doubles the damage given may be incorporated. Moreover, when attacking from the side, the damage given may be increased by 1.5 times. By doing so, a more strategic game can be provided.
As another moving method, for example, a configuration for executing rotational movement may be employed.
One specific example is shown in FIG. FIG. 11 is a diagram illustrating an example of movement of the user unit when performing rotational movement.

For example, as shown in FIG. 11A, it is assumed that the user unit 300a is arranged in the cell 3c, the user unit 300b is arranged in the cell 4c, and the user unit 300c is arranged in the cell 5c.
In this state, it is assumed that the user performs a swipe input that draws an arc while touching the square 5f.

  Then, as shown in FIG. 11B, the user unit group moves to the position where the user has touched, the position where the rotation movement is performed with the mass (5, f) as the center of rotation. That is, the user unit 300a moves to the cell 2h, the user unit 300b moves to the cell 2g, and the user unit 300c moves to the cell 2f.

Note that the rotation angle in the rotation movement may depend on the angle formed by the touch operation position and the start and end points of the swipe operation that draws the arc, or the rotation of the rotation movement by the swipe operation that draws a single arc. The angle may be set to a predetermined value (for example, 90 degrees).
Such movement processing may be adopted.

  (6) In the above embodiment, in the game in the embodiment, the user unit 300f having the crown has only to reach the destination, but any user unit is not the specific user unit. It may be a game to reach.

  (7) In the above embodiment, the storage unit 120 holds group information, but this is held because the user unit group moves together. Other information may be used as long as they can be moved together. For example, it may be information in which another user unit is associated with a specific unit in the user unit group, and indicates that it is a premise unit to move as a parameter of each user unit. It is good also as implement | achieving by the structure that information is added.

  (8) In the above embodiment, a game in which the user operates the user character to reach the destination has been described as an example. However, the operation method shown in the above embodiment is different from the other game. Is also applicable.

  For example, the target to be operated may be a card in a card game. As a method of using the operation method shown in the above embodiment, it can be used as a card exchange operation for a deck composed of a plurality of cards in a card game. That is, among the decks composed of a plurality of cards, a card that is desired to remain in the deck is specified by a touch operation, and a swipe operation is performed with another finger, and an untouched card is changed to another card. . Alternatively, when the front and back sides of the card are meaningful, the front and back sides of the card that has not been touched may be reversed by a swipe operation instead of changing the card.

  Further, for example, in a game where a building can be arranged on a map, such as a strategy game, the operation method shown in the above embodiment leaves a part of a plurality of buildings and collects the rest. It can be applied to the operation to move. That is, when a swipe operation is performed with another finger while a building that is not desired to be moved is touched, the remaining buildings (buildings that have not been touched) move in the direction indicated by the swipe operation. Further, the rotational movement shown in the modified example (5) may be applied.

Furthermore, even in a game in which the board can be moved (for example, a puzzle game), a part of the board is designated by a touch operation, and the remaining board is moved by a swipe operation. It is good.
As described above, the operation method of performing the swipe operation with another finger while performing the touch operation described in the above embodiment can be used in various ways.

  (9) In the above embodiment, as an operation to move the remaining user units together without moving the predetermined user units, a swipe operation is performed while touching the predetermined user units. Is not the case. The predetermined user unit may be touched to select the predetermined user unit, and then a finger may be released to perform a swipe operation. Then, after the movement by the swipe operation, the selected state of the predetermined user unit may be canceled. In the case of this operation method, the user does not need to keep touching the user unit that the user does not want to move.

  (10) In the above embodiment, the user unit advances by one square, but this is not limited thereto. The number of squares that the user unit advances may be a predetermined number of squares greater than or equal to a predetermined number, or may be a number corresponding to the distance between the start point and the end point of the swipe operation.

  (11) In the above-described embodiment, the swipe operation is described as indicating only one direction (a straight line connected by the start point and the end point). Perform correct input operations. In this case, the refracted portion may be treated as having been swiped twice with the first end point and the second start point.

  (12) In the above embodiment, only one unit can be arranged per square, but this is not the only case. A plurality of units may be arranged in one square, or one unit may be arranged so as to occupy a plurality of squares.

  (13) In the above embodiment, in the user unit group, the group information associated by the association unit 134 is stored in the storage unit 120. That is, in the above embodiment, an example in which the user unit group is predetermined by the game program has been described. However, this is not the case.

  That is, the game program may include a function that allows the user to designate a user unit to be moved as a user unit group. Various methods can be used for the designation. For example, user units included in a range designation by a so-called drag operation may be designated as a user unit group.

  (14) In the above embodiment, one user unit is not designated and moved by a touch operation. However, there may be a plurality of user units that can be designated as not to be moved. Also, for example, when a square that can specify a column or row is provided at the end of the map shown in the above embodiment, and a swipe operation is performed while touching the square, the column or row that is specified by touch It is good also as fixing as a user unit which does not move the user unit arranged in. Conversely, a user unit other than the user units arranged in the designated column or row may be fixed as a user unit that does not move.

  (15) In the above embodiment, when a user unit and an enemy unit battle and draw (when both HPs remain), the user unit advances one square in the direction indicated by the swipe operation, and the enemy unit An example of retreating one square is shown, but this is not the case. When a user unit and an enemy unit battle and draw, both may stay on the spot.

  (16) The game progress screen is a web display displayed on the information processing device 100 based on the data generated by the server device 200, and other menu screens (not particularly shown in the above embodiment). For example, to support the menu used by the user to instruct the user unit when it can use any special ability, or the user unit to use when there are multiple types of user units. Such as a menu for starting, redoing, and giving up a game, etc.) by a native application installed in the information processing apparatus 100. The hive that each of the apparatus 200 and the information processing apparatus 100 takes part of the processing. It can also be a Ddogemu.

  (17) Each functional unit of the information processing apparatus 100 may be realized by a logic circuit (hardware) formed in an integrated circuit (IC chip) or the like, or realized by software using a CPU (Central Processing Unit). May be. In the latter case, the information processing apparatus 100 or the server apparatus 200 has a CPU that executes instructions of a game program that is software that realizes each function, the game program, and various data recorded in a computer (or CPU) so as to be readable. A ROM (Read Only Memory) or a storage device (these are called “recording media”), a RAM (Random Access Memory) for developing the game program, and the like are provided. Then, the computer (or CPU) reads the game program from the recording medium and executes it, thereby achieving the object of the present invention. As the recording medium, a “non-temporary tangible medium” such as a tape, a disk, a card, a semiconductor memory, a programmable logic circuit, or the like can be used. The game program may be supplied to the computer via any transmission medium (such as a communication network or a broadcast wave) that can transmit the game program. The present invention can also be realized in the form of a data signal embedded in a carrier wave in which the game program is embodied by electronic transmission.

  The game program can be implemented using, for example, a script language such as ActionScript or JavaScript (registered trademark), an object-oriented programming language such as Objective-C or Java (registered trademark), or a markup language such as HTML5. In addition, an information processing terminal (for example, the information processing apparatus 100) that includes each unit that implements each function implemented by the game program, and a server that includes each unit that implements the remaining functions different from the above functions. Including game systems also fall within the scope of the present invention.

(18) Although the present invention has been described based on the drawings and examples, it should be noted that those skilled in the art can easily make various modifications and corrections based on the present disclosure. Therefore, it should be noted that these variations and modifications are included in the scope of the present invention. For example, the functions included in each means, each step, etc. can be rearranged so that there is no logical contradiction, and a plurality of means, steps, etc. can be combined or divided into one. .
(19) The configurations described in the above embodiments and various modifications may be appropriately combined.
<Supplement>
Here, with respect to the game program, the computer control method, and the information processing apparatus according to the present invention, an embodiment thereof and effects produced by the embodiment will be described.

  (A) A game program according to the present invention is a game program for processing the progress of a game for moving a plurality of objects arranged on a game field, and a predetermined input capable of detecting a touch operation by a user on a computer A reception function for receiving operation information related to the touch operation from a surface, an association function for associating the plurality of objects as a group, and the plurality of associated objects when the operation information is a direction operation indicating a predetermined direction. A group that moves in the direction indicated by the direction operation, and displays the game field and the plurality of objects arranged on the game field on the game screen. When the movement process is performed, the movement process is performed according to the movement process. A display processing function that moves and displays a number of objects, and the movement function receives a designation operation for designating a first object that is one of the plurality of objects as the operation information Then, when the direction operation is received as the operation information, the remaining objects excluding the first object from the plurality of objects are moved as a group toward the direction indicated by the direction operation. .

  The computer control method according to the present invention is a computer control method for processing the progress of a game for moving a plurality of objects arranged on a game field, and is a predetermined input capable of detecting a touch operation by a user. A reception step of receiving operation information related to the touch operation from a surface, an association step of associating the plurality of objects as a group, and the operation information is a direction operation indicating a predetermined direction, the plurality of objects as a group A moving step of moving in a direction indicated by the direction operation; and displaying the game field and the plurality of objects arranged on the game field on the game screen, and moving processing is performed in the moving step. If performed, the moving process A display step of displaying a number of objects, wherein the moving step receives the operation information in a state in which a designation operation for designating a first object that is one of the plurality of objects is received as the operation information. When the direction operation is received, the remaining objects obtained by removing the first object from the plurality of objects are moved as a group toward the direction indicated by the direction operation.

  The computer according to the present invention is an information processing apparatus that processes the progress of a game for moving a plurality of objects arranged on a game field, and that touches a predetermined input surface capable of detecting a touch operation by a user. An accepting means for receiving operation information related to an operation, an associating means for associating the plurality of objects as a group, and when the operation information is a direction operation indicating a predetermined direction, the associated objects as a group A moving means for moving in the direction indicated by the direction operation; and the game field and the plurality of objects arranged on the game field are displayed on the game screen, and the moving process is performed by the moving means. Display the plurality of objects according to the movement process. Display means, and the moving means receives the direction operation as the operation information in a state of receiving a designation operation for designating a first object that is one of the plurality of objects as the operation information. If accepted, the remaining objects obtained by removing the first object from the plurality of objects are moved as a group toward the direction indicated by the direction operation.

  This allows the user to move the remaining objects together in the direction indicated by the swipe operation while leaving the object specified by the touch operation with a simple operation of one touch operation and one swipe operation. Can be made. That is, a plurality of objects can be moved without forcing the user to perform complicated operations and without moving a specific object. Therefore, it is possible to provide a game that allows simple movement of a plurality of objects while being easy to operate.

  (B) In the game program according to (a), a non-movable area or an obstacle object in which the object cannot progress is set in the game field, and the movement function is configured to move the remaining object in the movement by the movement process. When the movement of the second object, which is any of the above, is blocked by the immovable region or the obstacle object, the second object may not be moved.

  As a result, when the user moves a plurality of objects, if there is an object that cannot be moved to the planned movement destination, the object remains on the spot. Therefore, although it is a specification that multiple objects basically move together, it may not move depending on the case, so it can be operated so that it does not move intentionally depending on how the user moves the object. . Therefore, a game with higher strategy can be provided.

  (C) In the game program according to (a) or (b) above, the second object is not moved in the direction indicated by the direction operation, and the movement function is indicated by the direction operation. When there is a remaining object other than the second object on the straight line in the direction, the remaining object other than the second object may not be moved.

  Thereby, when there is an object with an object that cannot be moved to the destination, the object cannot be moved either. Therefore, for example, the user thinks of a strategy such as moving an object group so that the object cannot be moved as much as possible, or conversely intentionally generating an object that does not move and proceeding the game advantageously. Become. Therefore, a game with higher strategy can be provided.

  (D) In the game program according to any one of (a) to (c), the object has a direction, and the game program further sends a location other than the plurality of objects as the operation information to the computer. A direction changing function for changing the direction of each of the plurality of objects with respect to the direction indicated by the direction operation when the direction operation is received as the operation information in a state in which the designation operation for designating is performed. It is characterized by being realized.

As a result, if the object has a direction, touch the position where the object is not specified, and swipe in the direction you want the object to face to easily change the direction of multiple objects at once. be able to. For example, when the game includes a battle process with an enemy, the damage can change depending on the direction of the attack (front attack, attack from the side, attack from the back). Can provide a more strategic game.

  First, an information processing device (computer) according to one embodiment of the present invention functions as a portable terminal (client device), and a game program according to one embodiment of the present invention is used as a so-called native application (native game). The configuration executed in the first embodiment will be described in the first embodiment with reference to FIGS.

Next, the information processing device (computer) according to one embodiment of the present invention functions as a server device, and the game program according to one embodiment of the present invention is a part of the game program as a so-called web application (web game) or A configuration in which everything is executed in the server device and the result of the executed processing is returned to the mobile terminal will be described in Embodiment 2 with reference to FIG.
<Embodiment 1>

  A game program according to the present invention is a game program for processing the progress of a game for moving a plurality of objects arranged on a game field, wherein the computer receives a reception function, an association function, a movement function, and a display process. Realize functionality.

  The reception function receives operation information related to a touch operation from a predetermined input surface capable of detecting a touch operation by a user. For example, the operation may be an operation in which the player gives an input to the computer by bringing a finger or an indicator (for example, a stylus) into contact with or approaching the input surface. When the operation information indicates one coordinate, the operation information indicates the coordinate, and when the operation information is indicated by a plurality of coordinates, the start point (the first touched point) and the end point (the touch is continuously detected). , Information on a locus (information representing a change in coordinates including the coordinates of the start point and the coordinates of the end point) based on the point that can no longer be detected. In the following description, the touch operation is described as designating the coordinates of one point, and the case where the locus is shown and the locus is a substantially straight line is described as the swipe operation. The direction operation indicated by the swipe operation refers to a direction from the start point to the end point.

  The association function associates a plurality of objects as a group. When associating a plurality of objects, objects included in a predetermined range may be associated, objects in a predetermined positional relationship (for example, a positional relationship arranged in a line) may be associated, and an enemy is in the game. When appearing, all objects that act as allies except the enemy may be associated with each other. As a method of association, for example, a plurality of objects may be collectively stored as one group, a plurality of objects may be associated with each other, or one of the plurality of objects may be associated with the remaining objects. It may be associated with all objects.

  An object is, for example, any electronic data (for example, a character, an item, a card, a building, etc.) used by a player as a resource in the game in a game realized by the game program or other games. It can be moved (movable). In the following description, the object is described as user characters 300a to 300j.

  When the movement function receives a direction operation as operation information while receiving a designation operation for designating a first object that is one of a plurality of objects as operation information, The remaining objects excluding one object are moved as a group in the direction indicated by the direction operation.

  In the following description, the first object corresponds to the user unit 300j in FIG. 6 as an example. In the case of FIG. 6, the remaining objects correspond to the user units 300 a to 300 i.

  Further, in the game field, a non-movable area or an obstacle object in which the object cannot proceed is set, and the moving function is a non-movable area in which the second object that is one of the remaining objects is not movable in the movement by the movement process. Alternatively, when the movement is blocked by the obstacle object, the second object is not moved, but remains placed at the same position on the game field as when the direction operation was accepted.

The immovable area refers to an area in which an object cannot move in the game field. In the following description, the game field in which the game medium moves is described as an example of a grid (see, for example, FIG. 2) Among these squares, squares 5g, 6g, 5h, and 6h are applicable. Here, when the square 5g is described as an example with reference to FIG. 2, the square 5g means a square in the fifth column and the g-th row. In the following description, the disturbing object corresponds to a rock, a block, a wall, a scum, or the like in the modified example (1).
In the following description, the second object corresponds to the user unit 300d in FIG. 7 and the user unit 300d in FIG. 8 as an example.

  In the game program, when the second object is not moved in the direction indicated by the direction operation and there is a remaining object other than the second object on the straight line in the direction indicated by the direction operation. The moving function does not move any remaining objects other than the second object.

  Here, the remaining objects other than the second object existing on the straight line in the direction indicated by the direction operation correspond to the user unit 300h in FIG. 7 and the user unit 300h in FIG. 8 as an example in the following description.

In addition, when the object has a direction, the game program receives a direction operation as operation information in a state where the computer receives a designation operation for designating a location other than a plurality of objects as operation information. In this case, a direction changing function for changing the direction of each of the plurality of objects with respect to the direction indicated by the direction operation is realized.
The direction changing function may be any function that changes the direction of an object based on a user operation, and is described as a modified example (5) in the following.

  The game program according to one aspect of the present invention can be implemented with at least the following three configurations. That is, the game program may be implemented in a configuration in which (a) a computer functions as a client device (for example, a smartphone, a personal computer, etc.), and the game program is executed in the client device, (b) The computer functions as a server device (for example, a mainframe, a cluster computer, an arbitrary computer that can provide game services to an external device, etc.), and part or all of the game program is executed in the server device, The result of the processed process may be returned to the client device, or (c) the process included in the game program may be arbitrarily shared between the client device and the server device. Good.

  Therefore, the display function realized by the game program includes (a) an external display device (for example, a display unit provided in a portable terminal) connected to the computer via a predetermined network (for example, the Internet) so as to be communicable ) May display the game screen on the display device by outputting information (for example, display information), or (b) by outputting the display information to a display device provided in the computer, The game screen may be displayed on the display device.

(A) A client device that is communicably connected to a computer via a predetermined network (for example, the Internet) includes a predetermined input device, and the client device is input via the predetermined input device. The operation information may be transmitted to the computer, and the operation information acquisition function realized on the computer by the game program may acquire the operation information. (B) The computer may The operation information acquisition function may acquire the operation information via the predetermined input device.
<Overview>

  The game according to the first embodiment is one of the object groups operated by the user (hereinafter referred to as user unit groups) (in this embodiment, the user unit 300f set as the user unit leader). Is intended to reach a destination arranged somewhere on a game field (hereinafter referred to as a map) set in a grid pattern from the initial arrangement position. Each square has a specification that allows only one unit to be placed. In the game, the user defeats or replaces an object (hereinafter referred to as an enemy unit) that becomes an enemy (obstacle), and moves the user unit 300f to a destination within a predetermined number of turns (number of operations) or within a predetermined time. Must be reached.

  In the game, the user unit group is configured to move one square toward the direction indicated by the swipe operation collectively by one swipe operation on the touch panel of the user.

Based on this specification, when the user performs a swipe operation while performing a touch operation that designates one of the unit groups, the position of the user unit designated by the touch operation remains fixed in the game. (The designated user unit is not moved), and the remaining user unit groups are moved together by one square in the direction indicated by the swipe operation.
Thereby, the game which concerns on this Embodiment 1 can provide a highly strategic game in the movement of a unit group.
<Configuration>
Hereinafter, the information processing apparatus 100 according to the first embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating an example of a main configuration of the information processing apparatus 100. The information processing apparatus (computer) 100 is an information processing apparatus capable of executing a game program including processing described below. As long as it is a device that can execute the processing, the specific device may be, for example, a smartphone, a tablet terminal, a consumer game machine, a mobile phone, a personal computer, or other electronic devices. The game program includes a display (display unit), an input surface capable of detecting touch input, a memory, and one or more processors capable of executing one or more programs stored in the memory. Can be particularly suitably executed in a multi-function device (for example, a smart phone or the like).
As illustrated in FIG. 1, the information processing apparatus 100 includes an input unit 110, a storage unit 120, a control unit 130, and a display unit 140.

  The input unit 110 includes an input surface that can detect a touch input, and has a function of receiving an input from a user and transmitting the received input content to the control unit 140. The input unit 110 is realized by, for example, a touch pad provided in the mobile terminal 110, and in this case, input coordinate information on the touch panel touched by the user, or trajectory information in the case of a swipe operation is transmitted. . The swipe operation is an operation of sliding a finger while touching the input surface, and is used to specify the direction in which the user unit is moved in the present embodiment. The swipe operation is a kind of touch operation and can be regarded as a set of touch operations. A point (end point) where the touch is separated from the first touched point (start point) is detected, and the point from the start point to the end point is detected. This is an operation for specifying the direction as the direction the user wants to specify. For example, if the swipe operation slides the finger from the right to the left toward the input surface, this means moving the user unit in the left direction of the screen. For example, the swipe operation moves upward toward the input surface. If the finger is slid downward, it means that the user unit is moved downward (frontward) on the screen.

  The input surface of the input unit 110 corresponds to the display screen of the display unit 140, and the input coordinate system of the input unit 110 and the coordinate system of the display screen of the display unit 140 are in a correspondence relationship. That is, for example, if an object displayed on the game screen displayed on the display unit 140 is touched, an operation on the object is executed.

  The storage unit 120 has a function of storing the game program according to the first embodiment and various data necessary for executing the game program. The storage unit 120 is typically realized by various recording media such as a hard disk drive (HDD), a solid state drive (SSD), and a flash memory.

  The storage unit 120 holds map information 200 used by the game program. The map information 200 is information indicating the map state and unit arrangement position. Details of the map information 200 will be described later. Although not shown, the storage unit 120 holds group information (not shown) regarding user unit groups to be moved together, and the group information includes an identifier of each user unit group. When a user's swipe operation is detected, each unit included in the group information advances by one square in the direction indicated by the swipe direction unless the progress is prevented.

  In addition, the storage unit 120 includes user units used in the game, parameters of the enemy units (for example, HP indicating the physical strength of the units, usable special abilities (for example, magic, skills, etc.), attack power, defense power, speed, etc. Etc.) is also remembered.

The control unit 130 is a processor having a function of executing the progress of the game according to the present embodiment. When the control unit 130 accepts activation of the game, the control unit 130 causes the display unit 140 to display a game screen, and proceeds with the game in accordance with a user input from the input unit 110. The control unit 130 provides a stage where the user plays, and prepares the next stage when the user can reach the destination where the user unit is set. Each stage has different map shapes, enemy unit placement positions, and enemy unit placement.
The control unit 130 includes a reception unit 131, a movement processing unit 132, a battle processing unit 133, an association unit 134, and a display processing unit 135.

The movement processing unit 132 has a function of executing a user unit group movement process according to an input from the input unit 110 and an enemy unit movement process according to a predetermined algorithm. When a touch input is transmitted from the input unit 110, the movement processing unit 132 specifies an input position of the touch operation, and specifies a user unit displayed corresponding to the input position. Further, when the swipe input is transmitted from the input unit 110, the movement processing unit 132 specifies the start point and the end point of the swipe input on the game screen, and sets the direction from the start point to the end point as the moving direction of the user unit. Determine as.
The movement processing unit 132 basically executes two types of movement processing for user unit movement processing. That is, the following two types.

  (1) When the swipe operation is transmitted from the input unit 110, the movement processing unit 132 collectively moves the user unit group and moves it by one square in the direction indicated by the swipe operation.

  (2) The movement processing unit 132 fixes the user unit designated by the touch operation when the swipe operation is transmitted from the input unit 110 and when the detection of the touch operation is further transmitted ( And move the remaining user unit groups together by one square in the direction indicated by the swipe operation.

  In performing these two types of movement processing, the movement processing unit 132 determines whether or not each user unit group can be moved, determines a movement destination when it can be moved, and then moves the user unit groups that can be moved together. . In addition to the designation by the user shown in the above movement process (2), there are cases where there is a user unit fixed to the planned transfer destination when the planned transfer destination cannot be moved. Hereinafter, the case where the planned destination is not immovable and there is no user unit fixed to the planned destination will be expressed as the planned destination being free.

  When moving the user unit group in the direction indicated by the swipe operation, the movement processing unit 132 determines the planned movement destination from the user unit on the head side, and determines the planned movement destinations of all user units (does not move the user unit group). And user units that are not fixed are moved together. Here, if there are multiple user units at the head when proceeding in the direction indicated by the swipe operation, the order is selected from the user units at the head (in order according to a predetermined criterion even in random selection). (It may be).

  First, the movement processing unit 132 determines a combination of identifiers of the user unit and the enemy unit that will execute a battle (match) when an enemy unit exists in the cell to which the user unit is scheduled to move. And request battle processing. Then, the notification of the end of the battle process is received from the battle processing unit 133. When the notification includes enemy unit information in the notification, the movement processing unit 132 moves the enemy unit backward by one square in the direction indicated by the swipe operation. Further, if another enemy unit is arranged in the direction to be retracted at that time, the enemy unit is also retracted.

  Next, in order to move the user unit, the movement processing unit 132 determines a movement destination from the user unit positioned at the head in the direction indicated by the swipe operation. When there are a plurality of user units located at the head, one of them is selected one by one, and each destination is determined. At this time, if the movement destination is immovable, the user unit scheduled to move to the immovable cell is fixed (not moved) at the position before the movement. In addition, even when there is a user unit that is going to move to a cell with a fixed user unit (a user unit specified by a user's touch operation and a user unit that is moving to a non-movable cell), Secure the user unit.

After the battle process and the fixing of the user unit, the movement processing unit 132 moves a movable user unit group, that is, a non-fixed user unit, by one square toward the direction indicated by the swipe operation. After the movement, the fixed user unit is released.
Although the movement of the user unit has been described in detail here, the enemy unit also moves in the same manner as the user unit according to a predetermined algorithm.
The movement processing unit 132 transmits the movement result of the movement processing to the display processing unit 135.

  In the movement by the movement processing unit 132, the battle processing unit 133 determines that the user unit and the enemy unit are in a case where an enemy unit exists in the destination cell of the user unit or a user unit exists in the destination cell of the enemy unit. Have a function to execute battle processing between In response to a request from the movement processing unit 132, the battle processing unit 133 executes a battle process between the notified units.

  Parameters (for example, HP (physical strength), attack power, defense power, etc.) are set for each of the user unit and the enemy unit, and the battle processing unit 133 performs a process related to the battle according to a predetermined battle algorithm. Run. In the battle process, when the user unit is defeated, information identifying the defeated user unit is deleted from map information 200 described later, and when the user unit wins, information identifying the defeated enemy unit is deleted. To do. As a result of the battle process, the battle processing unit 133 determines that the user unit's HP is greater than 0 and the enemy unit's HP is 0, the user unit's HP is 0, the user unit's HP is 0, and the enemy unit's HP is 0. If the value is greater than 0, the user unit is defeated. Further, the battle processing unit 133 makes a draw when both HPs are not 0 (HP remains) as a result of the battle processing. Here, the battle processing unit 133 may display an effect indicating victory, defeat, etc. related to the battle on the screen.

  Then, the battle processing unit 133 transmits a notification of the end of the battle processing (including information on the drawn enemy unit) to the movement processing unit 132 and transmits display data related to the battle to the display processing unit 135.

  The association unit 134 has a function of associating a group of user units that move as a group and storing them in the storage unit 120. In the present embodiment, association section 134 associates user units 300a to 300j as a group.

The display processing unit 135 generates display data corresponding to the movement result transmitted from the movement processing unit 132 and the battle result transmitted from the battle processing unit 133, and writes the display data in the frame memory of the display unit 140.
The display unit 140 is a monitor having a function of receiving an instruction from the control unit 130 and displaying an image.
In the present embodiment, the input unit 110 and the display unit 140 are realized by a touch panel formed in a superimposed manner.
The above is the configuration of the information processing apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment.

FIG. 2 is an example of a data conceptual diagram of map information 200 referred to by the game program, and is also information indicating an arrangement position of each unit.

  The map information 200 corresponds to a game field configured in a grid pattern on the game screen. That is, each square indicated by each row and each column of the map information 200 corresponds to the state of each square displayed as a game field. The state of each square means whether a unit is arranged, is movable, or other objects are arranged.

  In the map information 200, when a unit is arranged in each square, a unique identifier of the unit is associated. In addition, information indicating that movement is not possible is associated with a cell having no cell, that is, a cell in which the unit cannot proceed. In FIG. 2, “x” is described as information indicating that movement is not possible. Although not shown, the map information 200 indicates “goal” for the set destination square.

As illustrated in FIG. 2, for example, the user unit “300i” is arranged in the cell “2b”, and the enemy unit “310b” is arranged in the cell “3g”. It can also be seen that the square “5 g” is immovable.
With the map information 200, the control unit 130 can manage each unit and its movement.
<Operation>

FIG. 3 is a flowchart illustrating an example of the operation of the information processing apparatus 100. In the present embodiment, the movement process of the user unit group when there is an input by the user will be described, and the description of other game elements will be omitted on the assumption that the conventional game specifications can be applied.
The input unit 110 of the information processing apparatus 100 detects a swipe operation from the user and transmits it to the control unit 130 (step S301).

At this time, if the input unit 110 detects a touch operation by the user, the input unit 110 transmits the fact to the control unit 130 sequentially (for example, every second). When it is transmitted that the touch operation of the user is detected, the movement processing unit 132 fixes (does not move) the user unit associated with the coordinates of the touch operation (step) S303).
If the touch operation is not detected when the swipe operation is performed (NO in step S302), the process proceeds to step S304.

  The movement processing unit 132 determines whether or not there is a user unit that has a cell in which an enemy unit is arranged among the user unit group as a planned movement destination (step S304). The movement processing unit 132 determines the determination using the map information 200.

  When there is a user unit whose destination is the mass where the enemy unit is located (YES in step S304), the movement processing unit 132 informs the battle processing unit 133 the combination information of the user unit and the enemy unit that collide with each other. Is transmitted and a battle process is requested (step S305).

The battle processing unit 133 executes battle processing between the transmitted user unit and enemy unit. The battle processing unit 133 executes battle processing in accordance with a predetermined battle algorithm based on the transmitted user unit parameters and enemy unit parameters (step S306). If there is a defeated unit according to the battle processing, the battle processing unit 133 deletes the unit from the map information 200 and notifies the movement processing unit 132 together with the result that the battle processing has ended. If there is a drawn enemy unit, the movement processing unit 132 moves the enemy unit backward by one square in the direction indicated by the swipe direction.
Then, the movement processing unit 132 determines whether to move each user unit.

  When the direction indicated by the swipe operation is the traveling direction of the user unit group, the movement processing unit 132 determines whether or not the user unit can move in order from the head.

  The movement processing unit 132 determines whether or not the user unit that determines whether or not movement is possible is impossible to move to the cell to be moved (step S306). The movement processing unit 132 determines whether or not the planned movement destination is immovable depending on whether or not the movement is set in the map information 200, or whether or not a user unit fixed to the planned movement destination is arranged. Determine whether.

  When the user unit cannot be moved to the planned movement destination (YES in step S306), the user unit is fixed (not moved), and it is determined whether or not the next user unit can be moved. If the destination of the user unit is not immovable, it is determined whether or not the next user unit can be moved.

  After determining whether or not the movement destination is immovable for all user units, the movement processing unit 132 moves one unit of unfixed user units together in the direction indicated by the swipe operation. Let

When the process shown in FIG. 3 is repeated and the user unit 300f having the crown can reach the destination set in any square on the map, the user has cleared the map. Will challenge the map.
<Specific examples of user unit movement>
From here, a specific example of the movement of the user unit using the screen example will be described.
(Display example)
FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating a display example of the game screen.

A game screen as shown in FIG. 4 is displayed according to an instruction from the display processing unit 135 included in the control unit 130. The display unit 140 displays a 3D map of the shape indicated by the map information 200 on the game screen, and the user units 300a to 300i and the enemy units 310a to 310f are arranged at the positions indicated by the map information 200. 3D display. The user operates the user unit groups 300a and 300i to cause the user unit 300f having a crown to reach the destination. In the present embodiment, it is assumed that only one unit can be arranged in one cell.
(Example of movement by swipe operation)
FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating a specific example of movement of the user unit on the screen, that is, when the user performs a swipe operation on the input unit 110.
Assume that a swipe operation is performed on the screen of the information processing apparatus 100 in the display state of FIG. 4 by sliding a finger from right to left as shown in FIG.
In this case, the movement processing unit 132 moves the user unit groups 300a to 300j collectively in the left direction of the screen.

  Specifically, the movement processing unit 132 determines the movement destination for each user unit from the head side in the movement direction indicated by the swipe operation, and moves them together. In the case of FIG. 5, the top side of the user unit group is swiped from left to right and points to the left, so that the user units 300a, 300b, 300c, and 300d are the top user units. . The movement processing unit 132 determines a planned movement destination from these user units 300a to 300d.

  The movement processing unit 132 does not fix the user unit 300a because the planned movement destination e1 of the user unit 300a is vacant. Similarly, the user units 300b to 300d are not fixed because the destinations 2e to 4e are vacant. Although the user unit 300a is arranged at the planned movement destination of the user unit 300e but is not fixed, it can be moved, that is, the planned movement destination 2d is vacant and is not fixed. Similarly, the user units 300f to 300h are not fixed because the planned destinations 2d, 3d, and 4d are vacant. Also, the user units 300i and 300j are not fixed because the planned destinations 2c and 3c are empty. Accordingly, all the user units are not fixed, and the movement processing unit 132 moves all the user units 300a to 300j together by one square in the direction (left direction of the screen) indicated by the swipe operation.

As a result, as shown in FIG. 5B, each user unit moves to the left by one square. The operation is a basic user unit group moving operation, and the user units 300a to 300j are moved together in the direction indicated by the swipe operation by one swipe operation.
(Example of movement by swiping while specifying a user unit)
FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating a specific example of movement of the user unit group when the user performs a swipe operation while performing a touch operation for designating a specific user unit.
As shown in FIG. 6A, it is assumed that the user performs a swipe operation of sliding a finger from the right to the left while touching the user unit 300j.

  Then, as shown in FIG. 6B, the position of the user unit 300j touched by the user is fixed, and the remaining user units 300a to 300i move to the left by one square.

  Specifically, the movement processing unit 132 fixes the user unit 300j designated by the touch operation so as not to move. Here, in order to clarify the designation, the designated user unit is indicated by a cursor, but this is not essential. Next, the movement processing unit 132 does not fix the user unit 300a because the planned movement destination 2e of the user unit 300a is vacant. Similarly, the user units 300b to 300d are not fixed because the destinations 3e, 4e, and 5e are vacant. Since the planned moving destination 2d of the user unit 300e is vacant, it is not fixed. Similarly, the user units 300f to 300i are not fixed because the destinations 3d, 4d, 5d, and 2c are vacant. The user unit 300j is already fixed. Therefore, the user units 300a to 300i except for the user unit 300j are not fixed, and the movement processing unit 132 collects all the user units 300a to 300i except for the user unit 300j, and displays the direction (left of the screen) Move one square toward (direction).

By adopting this moving operation, it becomes possible to move the remaining user units in a lump while leaving some user units (while not moving them), thereby realizing a more strategic moving operation. be able to. Further, by moving the remaining user units while preventing some of the user units from being moved by the user's selection operation, the formation of the user units can be transformed into the user's desired shape. In order to reach the destination, it is necessary to leave more user units, so the user must appropriately change the formation while taking into account enemy units and obstacles provided on the map. As a result, the game can be made more strategic.
(Example of movement when the user unit moves to an immovable area)
FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating an example of the movement of the user unit group when there is a user unit trying to move to a non-movable cell.

As shown in FIG. 7A, it is assumed that user unit groups 300a to 300j are arranged on the map. As shown in FIG. 7A, there is no grid on the left side of the screen of the user unit 300d, and movement is impossible.
In such an arrangement state, as shown in FIG. 7A, it is assumed that a swipe operation for sliding a finger from right to left is performed.

  Then, in the case of the user unit 300d, it cannot move because the left direction, that is, the planned destination 5g is a non-movable area. Therefore, the user unit 300d is fixed at that position (mass 5f). That is, the user unit 300d is not moved.

  Further, since the user unit 300d is fixed, the user unit 300d is arranged in a fixed state at the planned movement destination 5f for the user unit 300h. Therefore, the user unit 300h cannot move because the planned movement destination 5f is not vacant, so the user unit 300h is also fixed.

Therefore, as a result of the swipe operation performed on the arrangement state of FIG. 7A, as shown in FIG. 7B, the user units 300a, 300b, 300c, 300e, 300f, 300g, 300i, and 300j are collectively collected. The two units of the user unit 300d whose movement destination is immovable and the user unit 300h whose movement destination is filled with the user unit 300d are not moved, but moved to the position. Remains. That is, as shown in FIG. 7A, the user units 300d and 300e arranged in the cells 5f and 5e, respectively, remain as they are even after the left swipe operation by the user. It becomes a state. Since the user needs to leave more user units in order to reach the destination, the user must appropriately deform the formation while considering the shape of the map.
(Processing and movement example when a battle occurs due to movement)
Here, processing when an enemy unit is present at the destination of the user unit and movement at that time will be described with reference to FIG.
As shown in FIG. 8, it is assumed that the user units 300a to 300c and the enemy units 310a to 310c are arranged to face each other.

  In this state, it is assumed that the user performs a swipe operation to slide his / her finger from left to right as shown in FIG. Therefore, in this case, since the process proceeds in the left direction of the screen, the user units 300a to 300d on the left side of the screen become the first unit.

  Then, in this case, since the enemy units 310a to 310c are arranged in the respective destination plans 2g, 3g, and 4g of the user units 300a to 300c, the movement processing unit 132 collides with the battle processing unit 133. Request battle processing between matching units.

  Here, it is assumed that the user unit 300a is defeated by the enemy unit 310a, the user unit 300b is drawn with the enemy unit 310b (both HPs have not become 0 in the battle), and the user unit 300c wins the enemy unit 310c. In this case, the battle processing unit 133 deletes the user unit 300a and the enemy unit 310c from the map information 200. Then, the display unit 135 displays a screen erased by the user unit 300a and the enemy unit 310c.

  Thereafter, the battle processing unit 133 notifies the movement processing unit 132 of the end of the battle process. The notification includes information on the enemy unit 310b. When the notification of the end of the battle process is received, the movement processing unit 132 moves the enemy unit 310b backward by one square in the direction indicated by the swipe direction (move left by one square). Moreover, since the enemy unit 310e is arranged in the movement direction of the enemy unit 310b, the movement processing unit 132 also moves the enemy unit 310e backward by one square. As a result, the enemy unit 310b moves to the cell 3h, and the enemy unit 310e moves to the cell 3i. The movement processing unit 132 performs the movement processing of the remaining user units 300b to 300j in the direction indicated by the swipe operation (the screen left direction in the case of FIG. 8).

  The movement processing unit 132 determines a movement destination from the first user unit (300b to 300d) in the movement direction of the remaining user unit group (300b to 300j). First, the movement processing unit 132 does not fix the user unit 300b because the enemy unit 310b moves backward by one cell due to the draw in the battle and the planned destination 3g is vacant. The user unit 300c is not fixed because the planned destination 4g destroys the enemy unit 310c and is vacant. The user unit 300d is fixed because the planned destination 5g is not movable and is not available. Since the user unit 300e is a blank cell because the user unit 300a has been defeated in the battle, the planned destination 2f is vacant, and is not fixed. The user unit 300f is not fixed because the planned destination 3f is empty. The user unit 300g is not fixed because the planned destination 4f is vacant. The user unit 300h is fixed because the user unit 300d fixed to the planned destination is not disposed and free. The user unit i is not fixed because the planned destination 2e is empty. The user unit 300j is not fixed because the planned destination 3e is vacant.

  Thereafter, the movement processing unit 132 moves the user units 300b, 300c, 300e, 300f, 300g, 300i, and 300j that are not fixed to the left by one block. After the movement, the movement processing unit 132 releases the fixed user unit.

  Therefore, as a result of the user's swipe operation in FIG. 8A, as shown in FIG. 8B, the user unit 300a is removed from the map, and the user units 300d and 300h do not move, and the user unit 300b, 300c, 300e, 300f, 300g, 300i, and 300j move one cell to the left.

  The user moves the user unit 300f to the destination by making use of the movement as shown in FIGS. If you move 1 square, you will consume 1 turn, and if you can move the user unit to the destination within a given turn, you will move to the next stage, and if you can't move, you will start over. .

While the user unit group is operated by only two types of simple operations (swipe operation and swipe operation by designating the user unit) as described above, the operation to reach the destination is simple. Can also provide deep games.
<Embodiment 2>

  A second embodiment (Embodiment 2) of the present invention will be described based on FIG. In the second embodiment, only a configuration different from the configuration included in the first embodiment described above will be described.

Thereby, the server apparatus 200 has the same effects as all the effects of the information processing apparatus 100 when the information processing apparatus 100 provides a function.
<Modification>

  Although one embodiment of the invention according to the present invention has been described in the first embodiment and the second embodiment, it goes without saying that the idea according to the present invention is not limited thereto. Hereinafter, various modifications included as the idea of the present invention will be described.

  (1) In the above embodiment, an example of a game in which an enemy unit appears as a failure of the user unit is shown, but the case of the failure of the user unit is not limited thereto. An obstacle object (for example, a rock, a block, a wall, a building, or a puddle) that hinders the progress of the user unit may be arranged as an obstacle. In the case of rocks, blocks, walls, buildings, etc., parameters such as HP and defensive power may be set and be destructible, and in the case of puddles, some game processing is used. Then, the user character may be allowed to proceed (for example, the puddle is frozen, or soil is put in the puddle and used as a road).

(2) In the above embodiment, an example of a game in which a user moves a user unit while destroying an enemy unit is shown. However, this is not the only case, and an object that can be operated by the user appears. If the game includes a process of moving the objects together, the operation method of the object (user unit) according to the above embodiment can be applied. In that case, the object (user unit) according to the above embodiment is not limited to the game, but also when the object group displayed on the screen is operated collectively (the display position is changed). The operation method is applicable.
(3) In the above embodiment, an example of a game in which a user unit is moved on a grid-like map is shown, but this is not limited thereto.

  The game may be configured such that the user unit can move freely on the game field. For example, the user unit group is configured to follow the position where the user touches the input unit 110. Then, in a state where one of the user unit groups continues to be specified by a touch operation, the remaining user unit is touched with respect to the input unit 110 with another finger. It may be configured to follow a certain position.

  (4) In the above embodiment, the battle process is performed between the user unit and the enemy unit based on the respective parameters. However, if the moving side comes into contact with the enemy, the moving side always wins. You can also simplify the battle.

(5) In the above embodiment, as a method for operating the user unit, in the specification of moving the user unit as a whole, the specific unit is designated by a touch operation, and the specific unit is fixed (not moved). An example is shown in which the remaining user units are advanced by one square.
As a special operation method for these user units, the following examples may be implemented.

  For example, assume that a direction parameter is set for each unit (user unit, enemy unit) on the game. Then, as shown in FIG. 9A, it is assumed that the swipe operation is executed in a state where the user is touching a place other than the user unit. Then, as shown in FIG. 9A, the user unit that has faced the left side of the screen is displayed so that it faces the front side of the screen, as shown in FIG. 9B.

  That is, when the information processing apparatus 100 detects a swipe operation in a state where the input unit 110 detects a touch operation that designates a location where the user unit is not arranged, the user unit direction changing process and the result are detected. The display process indicating is performed.

  The operation of the information processing apparatus 100 including the direction changing process in this case can be implemented, for example, by changing the flowchart shown in the third embodiment to the flowchart shown in FIG. In the flowchart of FIG. 10, the difference from FIG. 3 is that, when there is a touch operation, a determination process is performed as to whether the designated part by the touch operation is a user unit or other (step S1001), and the user When a location other than the unit is designated, the direction changing process (step S1002) for changing the direction of the user unit in the direction indicated by the swipe operation is performed.

  When the direction is set to the unit in this way, if the setting is such that the unit can only move in the direction that the unit is facing, consider how the user unit can be advanced to reach the destination. Therefore, the game can be made more strategic.

Also, when performing a battle, for example, when a user unit (enemy unit) attacks an enemy unit (user unit), when attacking from behind the opponent, compared to attacking from the front of the opponent, Processing that doubles the damage given may be incorporated. Moreover, when attacking from the side, the damage given may be increased by 1.5 times. By doing so, a more strategic game can be provided.
As another moving method, for example, a configuration for executing rotational movement may be employed.
One specific example is shown in FIG. FIG. 11 is a diagram illustrating an example of movement of the user unit when performing rotational movement.

For example, as shown in FIG. 11A, it is assumed that the user unit 300a is arranged in the cell 3c, the user unit 300b is arranged in the cell 4c, and the user unit 300c is arranged in the cell 5c.
In this state, it is assumed that the user performs a swipe input that draws an arc while touching the square 5f.

  Then, as shown in FIG. 11B, the user unit group moves to the position where the user has touched, the position where the rotation movement is performed with the mass (5, f) as the center of rotation. That is, the user unit 300a moves to the cell 2h, the user unit 300b moves to the cell 2g, and the user unit 300c moves to the cell 2f.

Note that the rotation angle in the rotation movement may depend on the angle formed by the touch operation position and the start and end points of the swipe operation that draws the arc, or the rotation of the rotation movement by the swipe operation that draws a single arc. The angle may be set to a predetermined value (for example, 90 degrees).
Such movement processing may be adopted.

  (6) In the above embodiment, in the game in the embodiment, the user unit 300f having the crown has only to reach the destination, but any user unit is not the specific user unit. It may be a game to reach.

  (7) In the above embodiment, the storage unit 120 holds group information, but this is held because the user unit group moves together. Other information may be used as long as they can be moved together. For example, it may be information in which another user unit is associated with a specific unit in the user unit group, and indicates that it is a premise unit to move as a parameter of each user unit. It is good also as implement | achieving by the structure that information is added.

  (8) In the above embodiment, a game in which the user operates the user character to reach the destination has been described as an example. However, the operation method shown in the above embodiment is different from the other game. Is also applicable.

  For example, the target to be operated may be a card in a card game. As a method of using the operation method shown in the above embodiment, it can be used as a card exchange operation for a deck composed of a plurality of cards in a card game. That is, among the decks composed of a plurality of cards, a card that is desired to remain in the deck is specified by a touch operation, and a swipe operation is performed with another finger, and an untouched card is changed to another card. . Alternatively, when the front and back sides of the card are meaningful, the front and back sides of the card that has not been touched may be reversed by a swipe operation instead of changing the card.

  Further, for example, in a game where a building can be arranged on a map, such as a strategy game, the operation method shown in the above embodiment leaves a part of a plurality of buildings and collects the rest. It can be applied to the operation to move. That is, when a swipe operation is performed with another finger while a building that is not desired to be moved is touched, the remaining buildings (buildings that have not been touched) move in the direction indicated by the swipe operation. Further, the rotational movement shown in the modified example (5) may be applied.

Furthermore, even in a game in which the board can be moved (for example, a puzzle game), a part of the board is designated by a touch operation, and the remaining board is moved by a swipe operation. It is good.
As described above, the operation method of performing the swipe operation with another finger while performing the touch operation described in the above embodiment can be used in various ways.

  (9) In the above embodiment, as an operation to move the remaining user units together without moving the predetermined user units, a swipe operation is performed while touching the predetermined user units. Is not the case. The predetermined user unit may be touched to select the predetermined user unit, and then a finger may be released to perform a swipe operation. Then, after the movement by the swipe operation, the selected state of the predetermined user unit may be canceled. In the case of this operation method, the user does not need to keep touching the user unit that the user does not want to move.

  (10) In the above embodiment, the user unit advances by one square, but this is not limited thereto. The number of squares that the user unit advances may be a predetermined number of squares greater than or equal to a predetermined number, or may be a number corresponding to the distance between the start point and the end point of the swipe operation.

  (11) In the above-described embodiment, the swipe operation is described as indicating only one direction (a straight line connected by the start point and the end point). Perform correct input operations. In this case, the refracted portion may be treated as having been swiped twice with the first end point and the second start point.

  (12) In the above embodiment, only one unit can be arranged per square, but this is not the only case. A plurality of units may be arranged in one square, or one unit may be arranged so as to occupy a plurality of squares.

  (13) In the above embodiment, in the user unit group, the group information associated by the association unit 134 is stored in the storage unit 120. That is, in the above embodiment, an example in which the user unit group is predetermined by the game program has been described. However, this is not the case.

  That is, the game program may include a function that allows the user to designate a user unit to be moved as a user unit group. Various methods can be used for the designation. For example, user units included in a range designation by a so-called drag operation may be designated as a user unit group.

  (14) In the above embodiment, one user unit is not designated and moved by a touch operation. However, there may be a plurality of user units that can be designated as not to be moved. Also, for example, when a square that can specify a column or row is provided at the end of the map shown in the above embodiment, and a swipe operation is performed while touching the square, the column or row that is specified by touch It is good also as fixing as a user unit which does not move the user unit arranged in. Conversely, a user unit other than the user units arranged in the designated column or row may be fixed as a user unit that does not move.

  (15) In the above embodiment, when a user unit and an enemy unit battle and draw (when both HPs remain), the user unit advances one square in the direction indicated by the swipe operation, and the enemy unit An example of retreating one square is shown, but this is not the case. When a user unit and an enemy unit battle and draw, both may stay on the spot.

  (16) The game progress screen is a web display displayed on the information processing device 100 based on the data generated by the server device 200, and other menu screens (not particularly shown in the above embodiment). For example, to support the menu used by the user to instruct the user unit when it can use any special ability, or the user unit to use when there are multiple types of user units.

<Supplement>
Here, with respect to the game program, the computer control method, and the information processing apparatus according to the present invention, an embodiment thereof and effects produced by the embodiment will be described.

  (A) A game program according to the present invention is a game program for processing the progress of a game for moving a plurality of objects arranged on a game field, and a predetermined input capable of detecting a touch operation by a user on a computer A reception function for receiving operation information related to the touch operation from a surface, an association function for associating the plurality of objects as a group, and the plurality of associated objects when the operation information is a direction operation indicating a predetermined direction. A group that moves in the direction indicated by the direction operation, and displays the game field and the plurality of objects arranged on the game field on the game screen. When the movement process is performed, the movement process is performed according to the movement process. A display processing function that moves and displays a number of objects, and the movement function receives a designation operation for designating a first object that is one of the plurality of objects as the operation information Then, when the direction operation is received as the operation information, the remaining objects excluding the first object from the plurality of objects are moved as a group toward the direction indicated by the direction operation. .

  The computer control method according to the present invention is a computer control method for processing the progress of a game for moving a plurality of objects arranged on a game field, and is a predetermined input capable of detecting a touch operation by a user. A reception step of receiving operation information related to the touch operation from a surface, an association step of associating the plurality of objects as a group, and the operation information is a direction operation indicating a predetermined direction, the plurality of objects as a group A moving step of moving in a direction indicated by the direction operation; and displaying the game field and the plurality of objects arranged on the game field on the game screen, and moving processing is performed in the moving step. If performed, the moving process A display step of displaying a number of objects, wherein the moving step receives the operation information in a state in which a designation operation for designating a first object that is one of the plurality of objects is received as the operation information. When the direction operation is received, the remaining objects obtained by removing the first object from the plurality of objects are moved as a group toward the direction indicated by the direction operation.

  The computer according to the present invention is an information processing apparatus that processes the progress of a game for moving a plurality of objects arranged on a game field, and that touches a predetermined input surface capable of detecting a touch operation by a user. An accepting means for receiving operation information related to an operation, an associating means for associating the plurality of objects as a group, and when the operation information is a direction operation indicating a predetermined direction, the associated objects as a group A moving means for moving in the direction indicated by the direction operation; and the game field and the plurality of objects arranged on the game field are displayed on the game screen, and the moving process is performed by the moving means. Display the plurality of objects according to the movement process. Display means, and the moving means receives the direction operation as the operation information in a state of receiving a designation operation for designating a first object that is one of the plurality of objects as the operation information. If accepted, the remaining objects obtained by removing the first object from the plurality of objects are moved as a group toward the direction indicated by the direction operation.

  This allows the user to move the remaining objects together in the direction indicated by the swipe operation while leaving the object specified by the touch operation with a simple operation of one touch operation and one swipe operation. Can be made. That is, a plurality of objects can be moved without forcing the user to perform complicated operations and without moving a specific object. Therefore, it is possible to provide a game that allows simple movement of a plurality of objects while being easy to operate.

  (B) In the game program according to (a), a non-movable area or an obstacle object in which the object cannot progress is set in the game field, and the movement function is configured to move the remaining object in the movement by the movement process. When the movement of the second object, which is any of the above, is blocked by the immovable region or the obstacle object, the second object may not be moved.

  As a result, when the user moves a plurality of objects, if there is an object that cannot be moved to the planned movement destination, the object remains on the spot. Therefore, although it is a specification that multiple objects basically move together, it may not move depending on the case, so it can be operated so that it does not move intentionally depending on how the user moves the object. . Therefore, a game with higher strategy can be provided.

  (C) In the game program according to (a) or (b) above, the second object is not moved in the direction indicated by the direction operation, and the movement function is indicated by the direction operation. When there is a remaining object other than the second object on the straight line in the direction, the remaining object other than the second object may not be moved.

  Thereby, when there is an object with an object that cannot be moved to the destination, the object cannot be moved either. Therefore, for example, the user thinks of a strategy such as moving an object group so that the object cannot be moved as much as possible, or conversely intentionally generating an object that does not move and proceeding the game advantageously. Become. Therefore, a game with higher strategy can be provided.

  (D) In the game program according to any one of (a) to (c), the object has a direction, and the game program further sends a location other than the plurality of objects as the operation information to the computer. A direction changing function for changing the direction of each of the plurality of objects with respect to the direction indicated by the direction operation when the direction operation is received as the operation information in a state in which the designation operation for designating is performed. It is characterized by being realized.

As a result, if the object has a direction, touch the position where the object is not specified, and swipe in the direction you want the object to face to easily change the direction of multiple objects at once. be able to. For example, when the game includes a battle process with an enemy, the damage can change depending on the direction of the attack (front attack, attack from the side, attack from the back). Can provide a more strategic game.
