【Example】
Hereinafter, a hitting game machine according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
As shown in FIG. 1, a mole hitting game machine 10, which is a type of hitting game machine, includes a mole type target (target) 11 to be hit and a mole hole (hiding means) 12 for hiding the mole type target 11. And a disengagement detection unit (detection unit) 13 that detects failure to hit, a launching device (reaction unit) 14 that discharges water (emitted matter) W, and a game control unit (game control unit) 15. .
[0014]
As shown in FIG. 2, the mole hitting game machine 10 includes a box-shaped base (target placement device) 16 in which a plurality of openings 12 a of mole holes 12 are arranged on a rectangular upper surface 16 a, and the base 16. It has a score board 17 projecting from the upper rear end. A pocket 19 is formed on the front end surface 16b of the base 16 to store a hammer 18 that strikes the mole-type 11, and a score display 17a for displaying the score is formed on the scoreboard 17. The striking surface 18 a of the hammer 18 is formed wider than the opening 12 a of the mole hole 12.
[0015]
The mole-type 11 has a face 20 in which an eye 20a or a mouth 20b formed of an opening hole is formed, and is formed so as not to be damaged even if it is hit with a hammer 18.
The mole-type 11 is moved up and down by a driving mechanism having a rotating portion 22a that is driven and rotated by the driving portion 21 and a link 22b portion that moves up and down in conjunction with the rotating portion 22a. 12a protrudes upward or is immersed into the mole hole 12 through the opening 12a. That is, this drive mechanism functions as target drive means for changing the mole-type 11 to the concealed state or the exposed state.
[0016]
The appearance of the mole-type 11 is controlled by a target control signal a sent from the game control unit 15 to the drive unit 21, and the mole-type 11 protrudes the face 20 from the opening 12 a of the mole hole 12. The time and the time interval for displaying the face 20 are arbitrarily set.
When protruding, the mole-type 11 directs the face 20 toward a player (not shown) located on the front end face 16b side of the base 16 and exposes the mouth 20b above the opening 12a.
[0017]
Further, the mole-type 11 is provided with a push switch 23 that is turned on by a pressing force applied to the outer surface of the mole-type 11. This push switch 23 is turned on when the player hits the mole-type 11 and sends a hit signal b to the game control unit 15 to detect a hit state that has succeeded in hitting the mole-type 11. can do.
[0018]
Similarly, by installing a vibration sensor or an acceleration sensor instead of the push switch 23, the player succeeded in detecting the vibration or acceleration applied to the mole-type 11 and hitting the mole-type 11. The hit state can be detected.
The mole hole 12 has a size capable of storing the mole-shaped pattern 11 and has an opening 12a having a size and shape that allows the mole-shaped pattern 11 to be projected and retracted. Nine are formed at regular intervals.
[0019]
In addition, an annular bank-shaped disengagement detection unit 13 is formed around the entire periphery of the opening 12a.
The detachment detection unit 13 includes a push switch 24 that is turned on by a pressing force applied to the outer surface of the detachment detection unit 13 and outputs an ON signal. The push switch 24 causes the player to detect the detachment detection unit 13. By hitting the ON state when tapped, it is possible to detect a missed tapping state that failed to strike the mole-type 11.
[0020]
Further, the ON signal output in the ON state is sent to the game control unit 15 as a disconnect signal c.
That is, when the missed mole-type 11 is missed, the miss detection unit 13 functions as a detection unit that detects a miss strike and sends a miss signal c.
Instead of the press switch 24, a detection device may be formed by a vibration sensor or an acceleration sensor. Similarly, by installing these sensors, it is possible to detect a vibration or acceleration applied to the disengagement detection unit 13 by the player and detect a missed hit state in which the player failed to hit the mole-type 11.
[0021]
The launcher 14 includes a pump 14a, a tube 14b that connects the pump 14a and the mouth 20b of the mole-type 11, and a tank 14c that stores water W supplied to the pump 14a.
By the operation of the pump 14a, the water W supplied from the tank 14c to the pump 14a is pumped from the pump 14a through the tube 14b to the mole-type 11 mouth 20b, and as shown in FIG. It is fired from the mouth 20b toward the front end 16a of the pedestal 16 upward. The operation of the pump 14 a is controlled by a pump operation signal d output from the game control unit 15.
[0022]
The projectile ejected from the mole-type 11 mouth 20b may be a liquid such as water or a solid or gas. The projectile does not harm the player when it hits the player, and is suitable for use at the place where the mole hitting game machine 10 is installed, and from the mole-type 11 mouth 20b by the pump 14a. Anything that can be easily fired is acceptable.
[0023]
For example, colorless or various colored water, mist, confetti or string, compressed air, air flow with a temperature difference from the outside temperature, etc. may be used. A belt-like paper bag wound up in a spiral shape may be used.
The game control unit 15 has a CPU 15a which is a calculation control means, and performs the target hit detection, the display of the score of the score obtained by the player, the driving of the target drive means, etc. The progress is controlled.
[0024]
The game control unit 15 receives a hit signal b from the mole-type 11 or a come-off signal c from the come-off detection unit 13. On the other hand, a score display signal e for displaying the score of the score obtained by the player based on the hit signal b on the score display unit 17a, a pump operation signal d for launching the projectile based on the miss signal c, and a mole type 11 An acoustic signal f or the like generated in association with a game play such as a sound generated by the mole type 11 based on the target control signal a or the hit signal b to be caused to appear is output.
[0025]
That is, the game control unit 15 controls the operation of the launching device 14 that launches the water W by outputting the pump operation signal d based on the disconnect signal c.
The score display signal e is sent to the score display unit 17a via the score unit 25, and the acoustic signal f is sent to the speaker 27 via the sound unit 26.
Next, the operation of the mole hitting game machine will be described.
[0026]
First, the player is positioned on the front end face 16b side of the base portion 16 and holds the hammer 18 in his / her hand and puts the mole hitting game machine 10 into an operating state by a predetermined operation. The mole hitting game is started here.
When the mole hitting game machine 10 is in an activated state, the mole-type 11 appears and disappears at random from each of the openings 12a of the nine mole holes 12 (see FIG. 3).
[0027]
Subsequently, the player hits the mole-type 11 having the face 20 from the opening 12 a with the hammer 18. At this time, if the mole-type 11 can be struck while putting out the face 20, it becomes “hit” and a hit signal b is emitted to score. The mole-type 11 that has been “hit” is retracted into the mole hole 12 after causing a reaction that makes a cry, for example.
[0028]
On the other hand, when the aim is out of the mole-type 11 or when the mole-type 11 cannot be struck while the face 20 is exposed, the detachment detection unit 13 is struck with the hammer 18, that is, If the player fails to hit the mole-type 11, a disconnect signal c is issued.
When the release signal c is issued, the pump operation signal d is output from the game control unit 15 to the pump 14a, the pump 14a is activated, and the mole type 11 is drawn from the mouth 20b to the platform 16 just before the mole hole 11 is retracted into the mole hole 12. Water W is launched toward the upper end of the front end 16a (that is, toward the player) (see FIG. 3).
[0029]
In other words, the launching device 14 generates a strike-failing reaction in which the water W is launched toward a player who fails to strike the mole-type 11.
After the water W is fired, the mole type 11 is retracted into the mole hole 12.
During the game play, the mole hitting game machine 10 repeats this series of operations.
[0030]
In this way, by giving the player a penalty that the water W is fired when the mole hit (target hit) fails, it is possible to double the regret that could not be “hit”.
As a result, if the player fails to strike, a direct reaction occurs to the player, which gives a strong sense of tension and regret, so that a greater emotion can be created, so the number of times of play increases (increases repeatability). Bring.
[0031]
Note that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and various modifications are possible. For example, the target may be a mole type or a crocodile type, as long as it can be concealed or exposed. Good.
Further, when the hammer 18 is cut out due to failure to strike, the signal b and the off signal b are not detected within the exposure time in which the mole type 11 is exposed from the mole hole 12, so that the exposure is not performed. This state may be recognized as a detachment state based on time management.
[0032]
Further, the water W, which is a projectile, may be launched not from the mole-type 11 mouth 20b but from another part of the mole-type 11 or the base 16 or the like.
[0033]
