Then, the position setting unit 420 sets a position for displaying the gift object corresponding to the gift based on the gift display request transmitted from the information processing terminal of the viewing user.

As an example, the position where the gift is displayed is defined as the position where the gift object appearing on the screen is finally or temporarily fixed. Such a position can be predetermined for each gift. If the same gift object is displayed at the same position, it will not be visible, so if the same gift object is displayed more than once, it will be adjusted so that it will be displayed at a different position. The position where the gift is displayed can be set as three-dimensional coordinates or two-dimensional coordinates in the virtual space.

Further, the position where the same gift object is displayed may be limited. That is, as will be described later, a predetermined number of positions for displaying the first gift object (gift arrangement positions to be described later) are set.

Then, the object display unit 430 displays the object corresponding to the gift at the position set by the position setting unit 420.

As an example, it is assumed that the gift is selected by the viewing user from the list of gifts displayed on the viewing user terminal 200 by pressing the gift button 208, and a display request is made.

FIG. 7 shows an example of a screen 215 showing a list of gifts displayed on the viewing user terminal 200. As shown in FIG. 7, gifts can be displayed separately by category (free gifts, paid gifts, accessories, cheering goods, appeals, varieties, etc.).

Here, the paid gift is a gift that can be purchased by consuming My Coins purchased by the viewing user, and the free gift is a gift that can be obtained by the viewing user without consuming or consuming My Points. ..

Then, one or more computer processors in the present disclosure perform the following processing each time there is a display request for the first gift from the information processing terminal of the viewing user.

As an example, the first gift in the present disclosure is an icicle gift for displaying an icicle object representing an icicle, as shown in FIG.

In the following embodiments and drawings, the first object OB will be described as being an icicle object, but the first gift and the first object are not limited to those related to icicles, and the display mode will be changed later. It may be an object of any shape as long as it can express.

Then, each time the viewing user's information processing terminal requests the display of the first gift, the position setting unit 420 sets the gift before the number of the first objects placed at the gift placement positions in the video reaches the specified number. The arrangement position is set to the position where the first object is displayed, and the object display unit 430 displays the first object at the position set by the position setting unit 420.

That is, as shown as an example in FIG. 9, in the moving image, the gift placement positions where the first objects OB1 to 3 can be placed are the position P1, the position P2, and the position P3, up to the specified number of third objects. The first objects OB1 to OB3 of the above are arranged at the positions P1 to P3. The arrangement order is not particularly limited, but the arrangement may be made in the order of position P1, position P2, and position P3 so as to represent the appearance of arrangement from the center to the outside.

The gift placement position may be set three-dimensionally in the moving image. For example, the positions P1, position P2, position P2, position P3, position P4, position P5, position P6, and position P7 in the third row may be arranged in the depth direction in the space. When setting the arrangement positions of a plurality of columns in the depth direction in this way, it is preferable to display the gift objects in a staggered manner so that the viewing user can recognize that the gift object is still displayed in the depth direction. ..

The chain line of the gift arrangement position shown in FIG. 9 is shown for the sake of explanation, and does not need to be shown on the actual screen.

Alternatively, each time the viewing user's information processing terminal requests the display of the first gift, the number of first objects placed at the gift placement position in the video has reached the specified number and the specified number. When all the display modes of the first objects of the above have not changed, the position setting unit 420 selects the first object of the specified number of the first objects, and the object display unit 430 sets the object display unit 430. The display mode of the first object selected by the position setting unit 420 is changed to the second object OB.

That is, as shown as an example in FIG. 10, the fourth first object exceeding the specified number is not arranged at the above positions P1 to P3 or another position, but is already displayed in FIG. It is assumed that any one of the first objects OB1 to OB3 (here, the first object OB2) is changed to the second object OB4.

Here, the first objects selected by the position setting unit 420 may be those whose order is predetermined, those that are randomly selected by performing a lottery, and the viewing user or the distribution user. It may be by the designation of.

According to the above configuration, it is possible to provide a technical improvement that solves or alleviates at least a part of the problems of the prior art described above. Specifically, according to one embodiment of the present disclosure, it is possible to improve the motivation of viewing users for gifting.

Further, according to the above configuration, it is possible to enhance the interest of gifting and improve the motivation of the viewing user for gifting by changing the display of the gift.

In addition, when the viewing user terminal requests the display of the first gift, the first object placed at the gift placement position in the video has reached the specified number, and the specified number of first objects is reached. When the display mode of at least one first object in one object is changed to the second object (as shown in FIG. 10), the position setting unit 420 is the first object. Alternatively, the second object is selected, and the object display unit 430 changes the display mode of the first object or the second object selected by the position setting unit 420 to the second object or the third object, respectively. Can be made to.

That is, the fifth first object is one of the first objects OB1, OB3, and the second object OB4 already displayed in FIG. 10 (here, the first object OB1). As shown in FIG. 11A, the object is changed to the second object OB5. Alternatively, the fifth first object is one of the first objects OB1, OB3, and the second object OB4 already displayed in FIG. 10 (here, the second object OB4). Change to the second object OB6.

In this way, even if the same first gift is given, the display mode of the corresponding gift object differs depending on the timing of the gifting. As an example, when twelve icicle gifts are gifted by the viewing user, the icicle objects in the manner shown in FIG. 12 are displayed. An aggregate of a plurality of icicle objects can be treated as one "display object" described later, or a plurality of icicle objects can be individually treated as "display objects".

Further, as shown in FIG. 13, one or more computer processors of the present disclosure may further include a measurement unit 440 and a number of times determination unit 450.

Then, when the number of times determination unit 450 determines that the number of times has reached the predetermined number of times, the object display unit 430 moves the final object, which is the final display mode, from the position where the final object is displayed and displays it. ..

The final object referred to here refers to an object in the final mode in which the display mode has changed by a specified number of times. As an example, assuming that the specified number of times is 2, the third object OB6 shown in FIG. 11 is the final object.

Then, the object display unit 430 moves the final object FN from the position P2 as shown in FIG. As an example, the final object FN appears to fall down the fixed screen.

At this time, the object display unit 430 in the present disclosure may end the display by moving the final object FN from the position so as to disappear from the screen of the moving image.

Further, as shown in FIG. 15, the object display unit 430 in the present disclosure can produce an effect of predicting the movement of the final object FN in the moving image before moving the final object FN from the position P1.

The effect of predicting the movement of the final object FN can be expressed, for example, by sound, movement and / or special effects. Examples of sounds include cracking sounds such as "mekimeki", examples of movements include movements such as swaying icicles, and examples of special effects include special effects such as splattering ice fragments from icicles. .. Further, only one of these effects may be used as an effect for predicting the movement of the final object FN, or a plurality of effects may be applied in combination.

Further, as shown in FIG. 13, one or more computer processors in the present disclosure may further include a contact determination unit 460.

The contact determination unit 460 determines whether or not the display object composed of at least one of the first object, the second object, and the third object and the character object are in contact with each other.

The display object is composed of at least one of a first object, a second object, and a third object. That is, as described above, the display object may be an aggregate of a plurality of icicle objects, or may be one by one of the plurality of icicle objects.

Then, when the contact determination unit 460 determines that the display object and the character object are in contact with each other, the object display unit 430 can change the display mode of the display object to display or move the display object from the position. Display as.

The change in the display mode of the display object referred to here is, as an example, a display object (here, the third object OB6 shown in FIG. 11B) is broken as shown in FIG. 16A. It shall be changed to the state. In order to change to this broken state, the third object OB6 may be changed to the fourth object OB7 and the fifth object OB8. In addition, although the state where the icicles are broken is expressed here, the state where the icicles are broken such as chipping or shattering may be expressed.

Alternatively, the change in the display mode of the display object referred to here is, as an example, the display object (here, the third object OB6 shown in FIG. 11B) as shown in FIG. 16B. It shall be changed to the removed state. In order to change to this removed state, the third object OB6 may be changed to the state held by the character object. The state of FIG. 16A and the state of FIG. 16B may be combined so that the character object can hold a part of the broken objects.

Further, in the present disclosure, when there is a request from the viewing user terminal to display a favorable evaluation for the second gift or the video related to the first gift, the position setting unit 420 displays the first gift in the video. The object, the second object, or at least one of the third objects is selected, and the object display unit 430 changes the display mode of at least one object selected by the position setting unit 420 to another display mode. Can be changed.

Specifically, when the viewing user presses the like button 209 shown in FIG. 6, the display mode of one icicle object displayed in the moving image is changed to another display mode. Another display mode can be, for example, a state in which the icicles are about to be unraveled.

As a result, the distribution user asks the viewing user to press the like button while the icicles are displayed and the character object is difficult to see, and the viewing user who presses the like button. It is possible to generate communication such as expressing gratitude.

Alternatively, in the present disclosure, when there is a request from the information processing terminal of the viewing user to display a favorable evaluation for the second gift or the video related to the first gift, the position setting unit 420 is displayed on the video. At least one object among the first object, the second object, or the third object is selected, and the object display unit 430 ends the display of at least one object selected by the position setting unit 420. Can be done.

Specifically, when the viewing user presses the like button 209 shown in FIG. 6, the display of the one icicle object displayed in the moving image is terminated.

With such an expression, it is possible to produce an expression in which the warm heart of the viewing user melts the cold icicles. As a result, the distribution user asks the viewing user to press the like button while the icicles are displayed and the character object is difficult to see, and the viewing user who presses the like button. It is possible to generate communication such as expressing gratitude.

It is preferable that the cost required for the display request of the first gift made after the number of the first objects to be placed reaches the specified number is different.

Specifically, the request for displaying the first to third gifts may be charged, and the fourth and subsequent gifts may be free of charge. Alternatively, assuming that everything is paid, the first gift may be more expensive than the last gift.

In the above embodiment, the example in which the icicle objects are arranged one by one at the arrangement position is shown, but the icicle objects may be arranged at the arrangement position for each icicle aggregate as shown in FIG.

Further, at this time, one icicle included in the aggregate of icicles may be broken and fall with the lapse of a specified time. At this time, the icicles that have broken and fallen may affect other gift objects or character objects.

As an example, to explain concretely using the example of a snowman object, after the snowman object is attached to the head of the character object in response to the snowball gift display request, a snowman gift display request is made and the swords are displayed on the screen. When the snowman object is dropped from the upper part to the lower part, the snowman object may be enlarged when it comes into contact with the snowman object. At this time, it is assumed that the icicle gift and the snowball gift are managed in association with each other.

Examples of such a management method include a method of assigning the same “ice attribute” to icicle gifts and snowball gifts. In addition to the "ice attribute", various attributes such as "sweets attribute", "water attribute", "fire attribute", and "food attribute" can be added to such attributes.
