A typical example of a game machine installed in a game center or the like can provide a fighting game.
[0003]
In a game machine that provides such a fighting game, the fighting characters are made to fight each other on the game screen, and it is possible to experience a sense of reality as if fighting between players. Therefore, the fighting game is highly popular as a game.
[0004]
In this type of fighting game, each fighting character that appears on the game screen can be used for special skills (special skills). Can do damage. Therefore, the success or failure of the special technique greatly affects the outcome of the game (match). Therefore, how the special technique can be smoothly delivered is a barometer indicating the superiority or inferiority of the player's battle technique.
[0005]
In the above fighting game, when fighting characters fight each other on the game screen, the power gauge indicating that the special skill of the fighting character appearing on the game screen is approaching is related to the appearance position of the fighting character. When the power gauge is displayed in a state and the power gauge is equal to or greater than a predetermined value, the special skill of the fighting character operated by the player is allowed to be paid out.
[0006]
The special techniques delivered from the fighting characters are different techniques, and the operation procedures for delivering the special techniques are also different from each other. Therefore, depending on the fighting character, the operation procedure for delivering the special technique is inevitably complicated, and storing the operation procedure is complicated for the player.
