It may be something that is done.

The acquisition unit 105 acquires the information attached to the music card from the card (music card) placed on the mounting surface of the reader 120. Although the details will be described later, the game in which the play experience is provided by the game device 100 of the present embodiment is a music game that progresses by performing operation input according to the selected music. The music to be played in the game device 100 of the present embodiment is selected based on the information acquired from the reader 120. That is, by using the music card during game play, the player can select the music associated with the music card without requiring complicated operation input.

Here, the information (card information) attached to the music card may have a data structure as illustrated in FIG. 12 (a). As shown in the figure, the card information is associated with the card ID 1201 that identifies the music card, and uniquely identifies the music ID 1202 that uniquely identifies the music associated with the music card, and similarly the character associated with the music card. Includes the character ID 1203 specified in. In the game of the present embodiment, an effect presentation showing a battle action between characters is made, which progresses according to the success or failure of the hitting operation performed on the percussion instrument controller 150 during the play of the music game. The character that performs the battle action for the player is a character associated with the music card for which information has been acquired, among the games provided so as to be able to appear in the game. There are a plurality of types of combinations of music and characters defined by the card information, and the selection of both is completed by acquiring the information from one music card. That is, the card information attached to the music card that can be used in the game device 100 of the present embodiment includes the same music that indicates a combination with different characters.

In the present embodiment, the addition of the card information to the music card will be described as being performed by printing the two-dimensional code 202 obtained by converting the card information on the surface of the music card as a two-dimensional image. Needless to say, the method of attaching the information to the card may be any method. That is, the information that identifies the associated music and character may be converted into a one-dimensional or three-dimensional code or character string and attached, or included in a music card such as an IC tag. It may be attached by being stored in a predetermined recording medium.

The music DB 106 is a database that manages information (detailed music information) about music that is played during a play experience in a music game. As shown in FIG. 12B, for example, the detailed music information managed for one song is associated with the song ID 1211 of the song, the song name 1212, the BPM information 1213 indicating the playback tempo of the song, and the game. It may be configured to include music data 1214 to be played at the time of play.

The character DB 107 is a database that manages character information for each of the characters predetermined to appear in the game. The character information managed for one character is associated with the character ID 1221 of the character, for example, as shown in FIG. 12 (c), the character name 1222, and the characteristics of the character referred to in the progress control of the game (each). It is configured to include a parameter 1223 indicating the frequency of occurrence of types of notes, unique abilities that can be activated, etc., and display information 1224 indicating images, model data, etc. used to display the character on the game screen. It may be a thing.

The evaluation unit 108 evaluates the operation input made to the percussion instrument controller 150 for the music game for which the play experience is provided. Although the details will be described later, during the game play of the music game, the player is presented with notes indicating the tapping operation to be performed and the input timing thereof, and the evaluation unit 108 evaluates the tapping operation performed on the notes. In addition, the evaluation unit 108 also evaluates the progress of the music game related to one song, based on, for example, the number of consecutive successes and the number of failures.

The presentation control unit 109 includes a drawing device such as a GPU, and in the present embodiment, generates and controls a screen to be displayed on the display unit 130. Specifically, the presentation control unit 109 is suitable for drawing objects required based on the processes and commands performed by the control unit 101 during the operation of the game device 100 (during game play or standby state). Execute arithmetic processing and draw the screen. The generated screen is output to the display unit 130 built in the same housing as the game device 100, and is displayed in a predetermined display area to be presented to the player. Here, in the present embodiment, the display unit 130 has been described as being built in the housing of the game device 100, but the display unit 130 may be a display device detachably connected to the outside of the game device 100. ..

Further, the presentation control unit 109 includes a circuit for outputting / amplifying an audio signal such as a sound board or an amplifier, and performs a predetermined process when generating an audio output from a speaker (not shown). Specifically, the presentation control unit 109 converts (D / A conversion) the audio or music data previously recorded in the recording medium 102 or the music DB 106 into an electrical audio signal (D / A conversion) and outputs the audio signal to the speaker. , The sound wave based on the audio signal is output.

The presentation control unit 109 also controls the presentation of the effect on the first striking surface 151 and the second striking surface 152 provided on the percussion instrument controller 150. That is, the presentation control unit 109 controls the light emission (color / light amount) of the first light emitting unit 153 and the second light emitting unit 154 to present the effect on each striking surface. The effect presentation is performed during the period in which the percussion instrument controller 150 accepts the tapping operation, that is, during the provision of the play experience related to the music game.

The provision control unit 110 controls the operation of the provision unit 140 so as to basically provide one music card that can be used in the music game for one game play based on the payment of the price. The music card may be configured to be provided, for example, before the start of a game sequence relating to the provision of a predetermined game (music game), and to be usable in the game sequence executed thereafter. The providing unit 140 is, for example, a card dispenser, has a stocker (not shown) for stacking and accommodating music cards in the vertical direction, and is held at the bottom of the stocker in response to a providing command issued by the providing control unit 110. It may be configured to have a mechanism for providing one music card. When the providing unit 140 is built in the same housing as the game device 100, the provided music card is guided to the outlet 141 (FIG. 1 (a)) accessible from the outside of the game device 100, so that the player can play the music card. May be provided to. The music card provided by the game device 100 of the present embodiment is a pre-printed and manufactured ready-made card having a code related to unique card information on the surface as described above, and all music cards. Are formed to have the same outer shape.

The game device 100 of the present embodiment will be described as providing a ready-made card having a fixed design printed and issued in advance at a factory or the like, but the provided music card is dynamically printed by so-called on-demand printing. The design may be changeable. In this case, the providing unit 140 is a printing device that prints on a predetermined paper medium, and is a card having a character ID of a character and a music ID of a music selected by a player or a lottery process according to the progress of a game, for example. The code obtained by composing the information and converting it by the conversion method for the music card may be printed on the music card and output.

The operation input unit 111 is a user interface included in the game device 100, such as an operation member for determination input and various sensors. When the operation input unit 111 detects that an operation input has been made to the operation member, the operation input unit 111 outputs a control signal corresponding to the operation input to the control unit 101. Further, when the operation input unit 111 detects that the operation input to the percussion instrument controller 150 has been made, the operation input unit 111 can identify which of the first striking surface 151 and the second striking surface 152 is the striking operation. The control signal is output to the control unit 101 in this state. The operation input unit 111 may include, for example, a touch input detection sensor that detects a touch input made on the screen of the display unit 130.

The communication unit 112 is a communication interface with an external device included in the game device 100. The communication unit 112 can be connected to an external device via a communication medium such as the Internet (not shown) or a communication medium such as a cable to enable transmission / reception of data. For example, the communication unit 112 converts the information input as the transmission target into data in a predetermined format and transmits it to an external device such as a server via the network. Further, when the communication unit 112 receives information from an external device via a network, for example, the communication unit 112 decodes the information and stores it in the memory 103.

Further, the game device 100 of the present embodiment is configured so that program data in which a program for processing related to a game is packaged can be received from an external device via a communication unit 112. When the program data is received by the communication unit 112 together with the program update request, the control unit 101 uses the received program data to perform a processing program for the game currently stored in the recording medium 102 in accordance with the update request. Can be updated. In addition, the update processing of the processing program related to the game is automatically executed when, for example, the program data recorded in the recording medium is inserted into an optical drive (not shown) included in the game device, or after the insertion. It can also be executed by the administrator issuing a start command.

《Game overview》
Next, the outline of the service provision of the music game for which the play experience is provided by the game device 100 of the present embodiment having such a configuration will be described.

In the game device 100 of the present embodiment, the service provision to the player is started on the condition that the price is paid in the standby state. Here, the standby state is a state in which the service is not provided to any player, and the information that the service can be used by presenting the so-called demonstration screen and paying the price is displayed on the display unit 130. Presented at. In the following, for the sake of simplicity, it is assumed that one service provision includes the provision of at least one music game playing experience, but the implementation of the present invention is not limited to this. However, it may include a mode that does not involve the provision of a play experience, such as providing only a music card.

When the service starts, one music card will be provided. As a result, the player can play the game while possessing at least one music card. As described above, the music card is used for selecting the music to be played, and by acquiring the information, the game play of the music game progresses with the reproduction of the music associated with the music card. Is possible. In other words, the more music cards you have, the more music you have a choice of music that you can play the game.

Further, the music game in which the play experience is provided by the game device 100 of the present embodiment includes an element of a competitive game played between a plurality of players in order to improve the interest. The battle game is played between, for example, a player who uses the service in the game device 100 and a player who uses the service in another game device 100 connected via the communication unit 112. The character that appears in association with each player in the battle game is the character associated with the music card for which information has been acquired, and the character used by the player is determined along with the selection of the music. The details will be described later, but the behavior of each character is controlled according to the success or failure of the operation input for each note in the music game. Used for control.

In the present embodiment, the battle game is played between the players who use the two matched game devices 100, and the operation of each character is based on the operation input by each player. It is not limited to this. The opponent character in the battle game is not limited to the one that operates based on the operation input of the player, but also the one that operates based on the process of performing the operation input of NPC (Non-Player Character) or the like in a pseudo manner. good.

<Play music settings>
The game device 100 of the present embodiment provides a playing experience of three music games for one payment. In other words, the player can play a music game accompanying the reproduction of three types of music (play music) by paying the price for one time to the game device 100 in the standby state.

The three types of play music are set based on the acquisition of information from the music card in the setting sequence for setting the play music, which is transferred after the music card is provided. In the setting sequence, the player can set the three types of music specified by the card information as play music by placing the music cards in order on the reader 120 and acquiring the card information. More specifically, for the three stages from the first stage to the third stage, which progress over time during game play, the play music to be played in the music game related to each stage is set according to the card information acquisition order. That is, the play music of the first stage is set based on the music card for which information has been acquired on the first card, and the play music of the second stage is set based on the music card for which information has been acquired on the second card. The play music of the third stage is set based on the music card from which the information was acquired on the third card. At this time, the characters that appear in association with the player in each stage are also set based on the acquired card information in the same manner.

In order to ensure fairness among players, it is impossible to set the same song as a play song of a plurality of stages in one play experience. That is, the provision of the play experience is controlled on the condition that different songs are set as play songs for the plurality of stages. Therefore, in the setting sequence, when the card information having the same music ID 1202 as the already acquired card information is acquired, the play music is not set based on the card information, and the information of a different music card is acquired. Will be notified.

Here, for example, a player who uses the game device 100 less frequently may not carry three music cards. Therefore, when the player inputs an operation related to the end of the setting, or a predetermined time related to the play music setting. When the time limit of 1 has passed, the setting of the play music and the character for the shortage may be determined by a lottery process or the like. Even in the lottery process, the same music ID as the music already set as the play music is excluded from the lottery target.

Further, in the battle game of the present embodiment, each player participating in the battle game selects a play music, but the play music finally played in each stage is set for either of the two players. It is assumed that the selected music is selected by lottery. At this time, the play music of one player may be changed, but the character set for the stage is not changed and is maintained. Such adjustment control of play music is particularly useful in a mode in which game devices 100 participating in a battle game are installed side by side and two players play a game in a situation where they can check each other's screens. However, the practice of the present invention is not limited to this. For example, in a mode in which a competitive game is realized between two game devices 100 that are separated from each other via the Internet, in order to improve the enjoyment experience of each player, the music game played by each game device 100 is played individually. The play music set by the player to be used may be maintained.

<Play experience>
When the setting of the play music and the characters appearing in each stage in the setting sequence is completed, the game sequence shifts to the game sequence that provides the play experience of the music game of each stage.

Since the music game for which the play experience is provided by the game device 100 of the present embodiment includes the elements of the battle game as described above, the attack phase and the defense phase are switched during the reproduction of the music related to one stage. Is configured. That is, when the attack phase is assigned to one player, the defense phase is assigned to the other player, and this relationship is reversed when the phase is switched. Then, in one stage, a character set for each player appears, and the battle action and movement are controlled by the character by the operation input made by the percussion instrument controller 150 in each phase.

FIG. 3 illustrates a game screen presented during the play of the music game of the present embodiment. As shown, during the play of the music game, Notes 301 indicating which tapping operation should be performed at which timing as the first marker according to the present invention is presented.

The Notes 301 is presented while moving at a constant speed along the lane 303 with the lane 303 formed by connecting the first point 305 and the second point 306 as a route. Here, the Notes 301 is controlled so that the moving direction is different depending on whether it is the attack phase or the defense phase. For example, in the attack phase, it occurs at the first point 305 and moves toward the second point 306. The defensive phase may be configured to occur at the second point 306 and move towards the first point 305. That is, while the Notes 301 is moving in the lane 303, the player performs a tapping operation on either the first striking surface 151 or the second striking surface 152 with respect to the Notes 301, for example, by the display color of the Notes 301. You can figure out what to do. Further, the game screen may include a movement direction display 304 that indicates in which direction the Notes 301 is moving, and the mode is changed according to the phase switching.

Further, on the lane 303, a marker 302 that does not move during the period for accepting the operation input for the Notes 301 of each phase is arranged. The marker 302 is provided as an index of the timing at which the tapping operation of the Notes 301 should be performed, and the movement of the Notes 301 is controlled so as to be located directly above the Marker 302 at the timing. That is, the display control of the Notes 301 is performed so that the moment when the center of the Notes 301 that has moved in the lane 303 overlaps with the center of the Marker 302 indicates the timing at which the tapping operation should be performed. Therefore, in each phase, the accuracy of the tapping operation performed for the overlapping of the notes 301 and the marker 302 is evaluated.

Here, the placement position of the marker 302 is controlled to be the second point 306, which is the destination of the notes 301 in the attack phase, and the first point 305 in the defense phase as well. That is, the arrangement position of the marker 302 is changed depending on whether it is in the attack phase or the defense phase. The change of the arrangement position of the marker 302 is performed after the movement direction of the Notes 301 is changed so that the player can grasp the change of the phase.

This is because it is assumed that the player pays attention to the moving Notes 301 in each phase. That is, since it is considered that the player grasps the change of the phase in the notes 301, the player can perform the tapping operation in the changed phase by configuring the marker 302 to change the arrangement position after changing the moving direction of the notes 301. It is possible to calmly grasp the timing to perform.

For example, when the Notes 301 related to the attack phase is moving in the lane 303 as shown in FIG. 4A, the marker 302 is arranged at the second point 306. Then, after the Notes 301 related to the attack phase reaches the second point 306, the phase is switched to the defense phase, and this time, the Notes 301 related to the defense phase (generated from the second point 306) is shown in FIG. 4 (b). Line up in lane 303 as shown and start moving in the direction of first point 305. After that, when Notes 301 related to the defense phase approaches the first point 305, the arrangement is changed while being presented that the marker 302 moves from the second point 306 to the first point 305 as shown in FIG. 4 (c). Will be done.

The timing at which the tapping operation for the Notes 301 should be performed is also indicated by the display size of the Notes 301 moving in the lane 303. In FIG. 3, which illustrates a game screen in the attack phase, the Notes 301 is controlled so that the display size increases as the lane 303 moves, that is, as it approaches the marker 302. For example, the display size of Notes 301 may be controlled to be the same size as the marker 302 at the optimum timing of the tapping operation (timing immediately above the marker 302).

In the present embodiment, for the sake of simplicity, in the examples of FIGS. 3 and 4, the lane 303 will be visibly displayed on the game screen, but the embodiment of the present invention is limited to this. is not it. The lane 303 may not be included in the game screen and may be controlled invisible.

Further, as shown in FIG. 3, in addition to Notes 301 and the like related to the music game, characters appearing in the battle game related to each player are arranged on the game screen and used for presenting the battle production. The battle production is presented as the background of the notes 301, the marker 302, the lane 303, and the moving direction display 304 so as not to impair the interest of the music game. In other words, on the game screen, various GUIs (Notes 301, Marker 302, Lane 303, and Moving Direction Display 304) are displayed in the music game in a manner superimposed on the battle effect between the characters.

In the example of FIG. 3, the player character 311 associated with the player is shown in the foreground (lower left), and the opponent character 312 associated with the opponent player is shown in the back (upper right). These characters are basically displayed along the lane 303 so that the player playing the music game can easily grasp the state.

In the battle effect related to each character, for example, the state of the corresponding three-dimensional model is controlled and arranged in the three-dimensional space which is the game field, and the image generated by drawing this from a predetermined viewpoint is included in the game screen. It may be something that is done by. Various motions (movements) including offensive and defensive actions are predetermined for each character, and during the game sequence, a battle effect is presented while applying any of these motions to each three-dimensional model. Will be done. Here, the motion is configured to fit the music of a predetermined tempo, and the playback speed of the motion is adjusted according to the tempo indicated by the BPM information 1213 of the play music played in the music game. The motion of the player's character is presented without any discomfort.

The evaluation of the tapping operation performed on the Notes 301 is performed in the order of good evaluation (the best evaluation is when the Notes 301 is performed at the timing immediately above the marker 302, and the evaluation is lower as the evaluation is performed away from the timing on the time axis. For example, it is classified into four stages of perfect, great, good, and miss. In this embodiment, the former two are treated as success evaluations and the latter two are treated as failure evaluations. As described above, in the battle game of the present embodiment, the progress is controlled according to the success or failure of the tapping operation in the music game, and the battle behavior between the characters is the success or failure of the tapping operation of both players in the music game. Includes the presentation of motion based on the battle action (attack success (large damage) + defense failure, attack success + defense success, attack failure (small damage) + defense success, attack failure + defense failure) whose content is determined according to. That is, the motion of each character related to one battle action is controlled to show a different mode depending on the success or failure of the tapping operation performed by the corresponding player.

By the way, in order to present a highly interesting game screen, it is preferable to present a character performing a battle action while moving in a three-dimensional space. On the other hand, since the battle production of the present embodiment is performed together with the presentation of information related to the music game, the mode of irregularly moving and arranging the characters on the game screen may cause an erroneous operation, which is not preferable. Therefore, the drawing viewpoint is controlled so that the battle action between the characters displayed on the game screen is presented along the lane 303 as described above.

More specifically, during the battle action, an action (turning movement) of moving the character sideways (laterally with respect to the facing character) occurs, and as shown in FIG. 5A, the movement is in progress. And the position of the viewpoint that draws the three-dimensional space so that the straight line connecting the characters after movement is substantially parallel to the lane 303 and each character is displayed in the vicinity of the first point 305 and the second point 306. Directional control is performed. The movement is controlled so that the distance between the characters is kept substantially constant. As a result, the display mode of the background objects and textures arranged in the three-dimensional space changes. Therefore, even if the display position of the character does not change so much, it is presented that the battle action accompanied by the movement of the character is performed. Can be done.

In addition to this, the battle action also includes an action (moving back and forth) that makes the distance between the characters different. The back-and-forth movement may be used for presenting an effect such as moving closer to the character to be attacked in relation to the attacking behavior, retreating or knocking back caused by being hit, and depending on the success or failure of the tapping operation. Temporarily change the distance between characters in the production presentation. The back-and-forth movement may be performed without the viewpoint movement control, unlike the above-mentioned turning movement, and as shown in FIG. 5B, at least one of the characters moves in the extending direction of the lane 303. It may be expressed by being displayed as.

It should be noted that the battle production using the characters performed during the reproduction of one play music is not necessarily required to be presented along the lane 303. For example, at the start of the music game related to the play music, at the time of switching the phase, and at the end of the music game, the battle effect of the character may be presented without following the lane 303.

Further, when the music game accompanied by the reproduction of the play music is started, the percussion instrument controller 150 also presents the effect by controlling the light emission of the first light emitting unit 153 and the second light emitting unit 154. In the present embodiment, the effect presentation on the percussion instrument controller 150 is performed during the period when the music game starts and the percussion instrument controller 150 is required to be tapped so that the player can easily recognize the period for accepting the operation input. In addition, when a tapping operation is performed, it is controlled so that a different type of effect presentation is performed in order to notify that the tapping operation has been input or the success or failure of the tapping operation. You can. However, the implementation of the present invention is not limited to this, and the presentation of the effect on the striking surface of the percussion instrument controller 150 may be performed based on other conditions.

As described above, in the game device 100 of the present embodiment, the playing experience of the music game of the set three types of play music is provided in the game sequence for one payment of the price. More specifically, in the game sequence, while progressing in the order of the first stage → the second stage → the third stage, for each stage, the set play music is played and the notes 301 defined for the music are displayed. Control, phase switching control, and operation control of the set character are performed. That is, when the stage (preceding stage) progresses to the succeeding stage (successor stage), the elements (Notes 301, marker 302, etc.) of the music game related to the preceding stage and the battle effect set for the preceding stage are displayed. The display of the provided elements (player character 311, opponent character 312, etc.) is terminated, and on condition that the display is terminated, the display of the provided element of the music game and the provided element of the battle effect related to the subsequent stage is controlled.

Further, in the game sequence of the present embodiment, it is assumed that the halfway end condition according to the progress of the competitive game is defined for the music game played in each stage. The halfway end condition may be satisfied, for example, when at least one of the player character or the opponent character set for one stage has reached an incapacitated state due to being hit or the like. Here, if the game ends immediately when the halfway end condition is satisfied, the interest of each player may be lost. Therefore, even if the halfway end condition is satisfied, the battle related to the phase in which the condition is satisfied It is controlled that the game is continued until the presentation of the effect is completed, that is, the playback of the play music is continued. Further, after the presentation of the battle effect is completed, the reproduction of the play music is stopped, and if there is a subsequent stage, the process related to the stage transition is executed.

<Continue function>
When the game sequence for one payment of the price is completed, the game device 100 of the present embodiment shifts to the evaluation sequence for evaluating the play content. Here, the evaluation of the play content is to evaluate the progress content of the music game related to the three types of play songs performed in the game sequence, for example, the number of successful tapping operations for each song and the number of consecutive successes. , Ranking of play contents based on the number of failures, etc. (5 levels of S rank, A rank, B rank, C rank, D rank for each song, SS rank, S rank, A rank, B rank, C for the whole It may be done by deriving the graded grade (evaluating the grade rank in 6 stages of rank, D rank, etc.) or scoring (the score of each song and the total score of 3 songs). The evaluation result derived in the evaluation sequence for one service provision is stored in the recording medium 102 of the game device 100 in association with the player name set by the player, for example, and is displayed in the display unit during the subsequent service provision or in the standby state. It may be configured to be viewable by any player via 130.

By the way, in a music game, depending on the timing at which the player fails in the tapping operation, the evaluation result may be undesired for the player. Further, as described above, in the mode in which the music games related to the three types of play music are continuously executed, it is not always possible for the player to realize the desired game play for all the music, and it is difficult to obtain a suitable evaluation. Can be. Therefore, the game device 100 of the present embodiment has a continue function of re-executing the game from an arbitrary stage before the final evaluation result is determined, subject to further payment of the price. Hereinafter, the continue function provided in the game device 100 of the present embodiment will be described.

In the evaluation sequence, a provisional evaluation result as shown in FIG. 7A is presented before the final evaluation result is determined in order to inform the player whether the play content is suitable. In the illustrated example, the provisional evaluation result (provisional evaluation result) 700 is accompanied by a notification 701 that the continue function is available subject to further payment of consideration, and a music game is played in the game sequence. For each of the three types of play music, evaluation information 702 showing the performance rank, the maximum number of consecutive successes, and the distribution of the evaluation of the tapping operation at each stage is included. In addition, the provisional evaluation result 700 is a goal that indicates goals that are expected to be achieved by continuing, such as conditions for raising the grade rank of each song or overall by one level, and necessary evaluations for satisfying the achievement conditions set in advance. Information 703 is included. The presentation of the target information 703 makes it easier for the player to determine whether or not to use the continue function. Further, by preferentially selecting a goal presented in the goal information 703 that is easier to achieve, the possibility of further paying the price can be increased.

Since the continue function enables the re-execution of the music game related to the same play music as described later, if this is allowed unlimitedly, the game device 100 by one player can occupy a long time. , The interest of other players in the game can be reduced. Therefore, an upper limit is set for the use of the continue function, and the provisional evaluation result 700 includes a notification 704 indicating how many more times the service can be continued. Here, the one-time (this time) service provision starts by paying a price for the game device 100 in the standby state, and ends, for example, when the final evaluation result is presented. It shall not be terminated by use. Similarly, the reception of the use of the continue function may be performed only for a predetermined period, and the provisional evaluation result 700 includes the remaining time 705 related to the reception of the use.

When the operation input related to the execution of the continue function and the payment of the further price are made in response to the presentation of the provisional evaluation result 700, the display of the display unit 130 is displayed again in the game as shown in FIG. 7 (b). The screen transitions to the screen 710 that accepts the selection of the stage to start the play. In the game device 100 of the present embodiment, when using the continue function, the player selects a desired stage (continue stage) from the three stages played earlier, and music for the stages after the stage. You can replay the game. That is, for example, when the second stage is selected as the continue stage, the re-executed game sequence provides a playing experience of the music game related to the second stage and the third stage.

When the re-execution of the game sequence related to the continue function is completed and the evaluation sequence is reached again, the evaluation related to the stages after the continue stage among the previously derived evaluation results is the play content of the re-executed game sequence. The content will be changed according to. In other words, for the stages before the continue stage, the evaluation result based on the play content of the game sequence performed earlier is maintained, and only the stage after the continue stage is replaced with the evaluation result based on the play content after the continue. Be done. That is, by using the continue function, the player can replay the game for the stage with the undesired evaluation result while preserving the evaluation result for some stages.

If the first stage, which is the first stage, is selected as the continue stage, the gameplay of all stages will be redone and the evaluation results will not be maintained. Therefore, the setting sequence is executed again and the play music of each stage is performed. In order to newly set the setting of, the information acquisition from the music card may be controlled to be performed again.

Further, in the present embodiment, since the game in which the play experience is provided is composed of three stages, it will be described as accepting the selection of the stage when the continue function is used. It is not limited. The implementation of the present invention may be configured so that any of the progress positions related to the finished game can be selected on condition that further payment of the price is detected.

Further, in the game screen shown in FIG. 7, it is described that the evaluation information 702 and the target information 703 are presented in the provisional evaluation result 700, but the implementation of the present invention is not limited to this, and at least one of these is described. When either of them is presented, the player can be encouraged to use the continue function.

Further, it is assumed that the game device 100 of the present embodiment provides a new music card for the further price paid for using the continue function. Since the game device 100 of the present embodiment is configured to provide a music card and a play experience for the initial payment of the price for one service provision, the continuation is accompanied by further payment of the price. Although it will be described that the music card is provided even when the function is used, the implementation of the present invention is not limited to this.

In addition, this continue function is not realistic because it is necessary to select the same stage as the continue stage in which both players pay a further price in the interpersonal battle game, so this function is limited to the battle game against NPC. Shall be provided. Therefore, in the service provided by the game device 100 of the present embodiment, the mode selection of whether to perform the game play of the NPC battle or the game play of the interpersonal battle is performed at the beginning.

<< Provide processing >>
Hereinafter, specific processing will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. 8 regarding the provision processing executed in connection with the service provision in the game device 100 of the present embodiment. The processing corresponding to the flowchart can be realized by the control unit 101 reading, for example, the corresponding processing program stored in the recording medium 102, expanding it in the memory 103, and executing it. It should be noted that the provided process will be described as being started when payment of the price is detected in the standby state of the game device 100, for example.

In S801, the provision control unit 110 causes the provision unit 140 to provide the music card related to the detected price under the control of the control unit 101.

In S802, the control unit 101 accepts the selection of the mode for providing the service. The mode selection may be performed by accepting an operation input made by the player, and as described above, the first mode that provides the play experience of the NPC battle game and the play experience of the interpersonal battle game are provided. It is selected from the second mode. When the control unit 101 determines that the selected mode is the first mode, the process shifts to S804, and when it determines that the selected mode is the second mode, the control unit 101 shifts the process to S803.

In S803, the control unit 101 makes a matching request to an external matching server via the communication unit 112, and determines the game device 100 to be used by the opponent player. By the process of this step, the matching server executes various processes for realizing a competitive game with both game devices 100. As a result, in the subsequent processing, information transmission / reception of each game device 100 is performed at predetermined intervals via the matching server, and it is possible to provide synchronized game play.

In S804, the control unit 101 executes a setting sequence process for setting the play music and the character of each stage.

<Setting sequence processing>
Here, the details of the setting sequence processing will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

In S901, under the control of the control unit 101, the presentation control unit 109 gives a notification prompting the reader 120 to place the music card in order to set the play music and the player character to appear for each stage of the game play this time. .. Further, the acquisition unit 105 controls the reader 120 so that information can be acquired from the music card on which the reader 120 is mounted.

In S902, the control unit 101 determines whether or not the card information has been acquired. When the control unit 101 determines that the card information has been acquired, the process is transferred to S903, and when it is determined that the card information has not been acquired, the control unit 101 shifts the process to S905.

In S903, the control unit 101 determines whether or not the card information acquired by the reader 120 satisfies the registrability condition. That is, the control unit 101 determines that the card information acquired this time does not have the same music ID as the card information already acquired in the present setting sequence processing. When the control unit 101 determines that the acquired card information satisfies the registerable condition, the process is transferred to S904, and when it is determined that the acquired card information is not satisfied, the process is returned to S902.

In S904, the control unit 101 acquires detailed music information and character information based on the card information acquired by the reader 120 from each of the music DB 106 and the character DB 107, and stores them in the memory 103 as information related to one stage. Add to the progress table on the player side. This information addition is performed in the order of the first stage → the second stage → the third stage, and is added to the player side progress table in the order in which the card information is acquired, that is, in the order in which the music card is placed on the reader 120. Information is added.

In S905, the control unit 101 determines whether or not the information registration in the player-side progress table is completed. The judgment of this step may be judged based on whether or not the information registration for all three stages has been completed and whether or not the operation input related to the completion of the setting has been made by the player. The control unit 101 shifts the process to S906 when it is determined that the information registration in the player side progress table is completed, and returns the process to S902 when it is determined that the information registration to the player side progress table is not completed. Here, when the registration is completed, if the number of stages for which information has been registered is less than the specified number (there are stages that have not been set), the play music and character are determined by lottery processing or the like, and the corresponding stage is determined. By adding the information to the player-side progress table, the player-side progress table may be in a state in which information related to all stages has been registered.

In S906, the control unit 101 stores the other party progress table in the memory 103, and completes the present setting sequence process. In the first mode, the opponent side progress table may be configured by the control unit 101 determining only the characters appearing in each stage by, for example, a lottery process. Further, in the second mode, the player-side progress table configured in the game device 100 used by the opponent player may be received and stored as the opponent-side progress table.

When the setting sequence processing is completed, the control unit 101 executes a game sequence processing that provides a play experience based on the player-side progress table and the opponent-side progress table in S805 of the provision process.

<Game sequence processing>
Here, the details of the game sequence processing will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

In S1001, the control unit 101 sets a stage according to the current progress as a target stage, and determines a play music to be played for the stage. In the process of this step, in the first mode, the play music registered for the corresponding stage of the player side progress table is simply set, and in the second mode, the play music registered for the same stage of the player side progress table and the opponent side progress table is set. One of the songs may be selected and set by, for example, a lottery process.

In S1002, the control unit 101 starts a process of providing a play experience of a music game accompanied by playback of the play music determined in S1001 for the target stage. In this process, the control unit 101 switches phases according to the progress of the music, controls actions and physical strength related to the battle game, and the presentation control unit 109 moves notes, controls the movement of each character, and directs the battle. Controls the presentation of the game screen and the sound including the above, and controls the presentation of the effect of the percussion instrument controller 150, and the evaluation unit 108 evaluates the operation input performed by the percussion instrument controller 150.

In S1003, the control unit 101 determines whether or not the end condition is satisfied for the music game of the target stage. The end condition is not limited to the one caused by the end of playback of the play music, and may include the halfway end condition. When the control unit 101 determines that the end condition is satisfied, the process shifts to S1004, and when it determines that the end condition is not satisfied, the control unit 101 repeats the process of this step. When the halfway end condition is satisfied, the control unit 101 waits until the presentation of the effect related to the current phase is completed, and then ends the reproduction of the play music and shifts the process to S1004.

In S1004, the presentation control unit 109 ends the presentation of the game screen related to the target stage (ends the display of each displayed object) under the control of the control unit 101, and shifts the process to S1005.

In S1005, the control unit 101 determines whether or not there is a stage for which the game play has not ended. When the control unit 101 determines that there is a stage for which the game play has not ended, the process returns to S1001, and when it is determined that the stage does not exist, the control unit 101 completes the game sequence process.

When the game sequence is completed, the control unit 101 executes the evaluation sequence process based on the play content of the game sequence in S806 of the setting process.

<Evaluation sequence processing>
Here, the details of the evaluation sequence processing will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

In S1101, the control unit 101 determines whether the mode for providing the service is the first mode or the second mode. When the control unit 101 determines that the mode for providing the service is the first mode, the control unit 101 shifts the process to S1102, and when it determines that the mode is the second mode, the control unit 101 shifts the process to S1109.

In S1102, the control unit 101 determines whether or not the number of times of use of the continue function related to the provision of the service this time has already reached the upper limit number of times. If the control unit 101 determines that the number of times the continue function has been used has already reached the upper limit, the process is moved to S1109, and if it is determined that the number of times the continue function has not been used has not reached the upper limit, the control unit 101 moves the process to S1103.

In S1103, the evaluation unit 108 derives a provisional evaluation result based on the play content of the game sequence under the control of the control unit 101. Here, when the provisional evaluation result has already been derived, that is, the evaluation result derived for some stages is preserved by using the continue function, the evaluation unit 108 said. A provisional evaluation result is newly constructed by combining the evaluation result and the evaluation result based on the play content of the most recently performed game sequence.

In S1104, the presentation control unit 109 presents a screen that accepts the use of the continue function including the provisional evaluation result under the control of the control unit 101.

In S1105, the control unit 101 determines whether or not the operation input related to the use of the continue function and the payment of the further price have been made. That is, in this step, it is determined whether or not the game execution related to the use of the continue function is confirmed again. The control unit 101 shifts the process to S1106 when it determines that the operation input related to the use of the continue function and the payment of the further price have been made, and shifts the process to S1108 when it determines that at least one of them has not been performed. ..

In S1106, the presentation control unit 109 presents a screen that accepts the selection of the continue stage to start the game play when the continue function is used under the control of the control unit 101. Then, when the continuation stage is selected, the control unit 101 shifts the process to S1107.

In S1107, the control unit 101 stores the information of the continue stage in the memory 103, and returns the information indicating that the continue function is used for the provision process (completes the present evaluation sequence process).

On the other hand, if it is determined in S1105 that at least one of the operation input related to the use of the continue function and the payment of the further price has not been made, the control unit 101 sets the time limit for presenting the provisional evaluation result in S1108. Determine if it has been reached. When the control unit 101 determines that the time limit for presenting the provisional evaluation result has been reached, the control unit 101 controls the state in which the operation input related to the use of the continue function is not accepted, shifts the process to S1109, and reaches the time limit. If it is determined that there is no such process, the process is returned to S1105.

Further, in S1109, the control unit 101 determines the current provisional evaluation result as the final evaluation result, causes the presentation control unit 109 to present the display result, and completes the evaluation sequence processing. In this case, information indicating that the continue function is not used is returned in the provision process. At this time, the control unit 101 receives the input of the player name for the final evaluation result, stores them in the memory 103 in association with each other, and makes them available for reference in the ranking display or the like.

When the evaluation sequence processing is completed, the control unit 101 determines in S807 of the provision processing whether or not the continue function is used. The judgment of this step may be judged by the return value of the evaluation sequence processing. When the control unit 101 determines that the continue function is to be used, the control unit 101 returns the process to S805 and starts executing the game sequence process again. At this time, since the information of the continue stage is stored in the memory 103, in the game sequence processing, the stage before the continue stage is treated as if the game play has already been completed. That is, in the re-executed game sequence processing, the music game playing experience is provided only for the stages after the continue stage. As described above, when the continue stage is the first stage and the player wants to set the play music again, the process may be returned to S804.

When the control unit 101 determines that the continue function is not used, the control unit 101 shifts the process to S808 and performs various processes related to the end of service provision to complete the present provision process.

By doing so, according to the game device of the present embodiment, it is possible to realize a game with improved interest.

In the present embodiment, the continue function has been described as being usable as long as the restrictions on the number of times and time are satisfied, but the implementation of the present invention is not limited to this. That is, in the embodiment in which the music card is provided when the continue function is used as in the present embodiment, it is a condition that the music card is present in the accommodating unit of the providing unit 140 when using the function. You may.

Further, in the present embodiment, the Notes 301 is described as moving at a constant speed in the music game, but in order to improve the interest of the music game, for example, during the game play due to the skill activation of the opponent character or the change in the musical tone. The progress difficulty may be changed, and the moving speed of the Notes 301 may be changed accordingly. Further, as shown in FIG. 6, a configuration in which the difficulty of progress of the game play is changed by temporarily displaying the obstruction image 601 that makes at least a part of the Notes 301 group moving in the lane 303 invisible. May be.

Further, in the present embodiment, as an advantage of using the continue function, a partial update of the evaluation result has been described, but the implementation of the present invention is not limited to this. For example, in the case of a game played by using the continue function, a privilege of increasing parameters such as the character's attack power and defense power may be added. Further, the service usage unit price per player can be further increased by setting the privilege to be different depending on the number of times of the continue function, for example, in the direction of lowering the difficulty of playing.

[Modification 1]
In the above-described embodiment, the final evaluation result information is stored in the memory 103 in association with, for example, the input player name, and the evaluation result can be viewed by any player. However, the implementation of the present invention is not limited to this. For example, having the player input the player name each time the player is played may require the player to perform complicated operations. Further, the function of putting the evaluation result on a ranking or the like and making it viewable is desired for a player who repeatedly uses the game device 100, and may not be suitable for a player who uses the game device 100 in a single shot.

Therefore, for example, a player card with identification information for identifying the player is provided so that the identification information can be acquired from the player card when the game device 100 is used, and the identification information is acquired for recording the evaluation result. The configuration may be performed on the condition that. In this case, the player name associated with the evaluation result may be configured so that the identification information or the information associated with the identification information and managed by the player server or the like can be diverted without accepting the input each time.

[Modification 2]
In the above-described embodiment and modification, the evaluation result information that can be viewed is described as being stored in the game device 100. However, in order to further improve the interest, the game device 100 is separated from the evaluation result information. It may also be a mode that can be browsed. In this case, for example, an external device such as a ranking server is provided, and the information of the evaluation result associated with the player name is transmitted, recorded in the ranking server, and shared with each game device 100 connectable to the server. Just do it. Therefore, the recording of the evaluation result may be performed on the condition that the communication connection between the game device 100 in use and the ranking server is established or the communication connection is possible.
