(One-player game)
Next, the characteristics of the single-player game by the game program of this embodiment will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. FIG. 2 is a flowchart showing the link technique processing by the game program, and FIGS. 3 to 8 are specific examples of game images displayed on the display monitor 110 in the link technique processing.

  In the case of a one-player game, an object is that a player character operated by one player and a partner character controlled by a computer cooperate to defeat the enemy. As shown in FIG. 3, the game is progressed by the player character PC operated by the player and the partner character PT that follows the player character PC by program control.

  Normally, the partner character PT autonomously moves in the field, fights against enemy characters, etc. separately from the player's operation based on a unique algorithm, but the player has a peripheral (controller) as an operation unit. By performing a predetermined operation input from 114, the player can instruct the partner character PT to perform a predetermined action.

  In the present embodiment, there are four types of actions that can be instructed to the partner character PT: move (MOVE), rush (RUSH), lock (LOCK), and link (LINK). Each action is described in detail below.

  The move (MOVE) is an operation for moving the partner character PT based on the partner character operation signal input from the operation unit. The partner character PT normally moves autonomously based on a unique algorithm, but by performing this operation, the partner character PT moves according to the player's operation in preference to the autonomous movement based on the normal algorithm. When the input of the operation signal is stopped, the partner character also returns to normal autonomous behavior.

  Rush (RUSH) moves the partner character PT in a predetermined distance in a predetermined direction faster than normal movement. In addition to simply moving at high speed, it is also possible to add an effect such as generating attack determination at the same time and causing predetermined damage to the physical strength parameter of the enemy character located on or near the movement trajectory.

  The lock (LOCK) is an operation for fixing the position of the partner character PT to the current position by an operation signal input from the R1 button of the peripheral (controller) 114 as an operation unit. This is an action that also serves as a preparation for activating a cooperative action (hereinafter referred to as a link technique) with a player character PC, which will be described later.

  As a result, until the linked state is canceled by activating a link technique, which will be described later, or by performing a canceling operation without activating it, the player character PC determines the type of link technique and each of the link techniques from the partner character PT. It is set so that it cannot be more than a predetermined distance determined according to the ability parameter of the character.

  In the present embodiment, when the partner character PT is in the locked (LOCK) state, as shown in FIG. 4, the place where the link technique is activated at a position approximately halfway between the position of the player character PC and the position of the partner character PT. The link technique icon IC expressing the direction, the direction, the form, etc. is displayed.

  At this time, the player character PC is displayed with an effect that the player character PC shines to indicate that the lock operation (LOCK) is being performed on the partner character PT.

  By moving the player character PC in this locked (LOCK) state, the positional relationship between the player character PC and the partner character PT is changed as shown in FIG. The player character PC is moved and displayed so as to be positioned approximately at the midpoint between the position of the player character PC and the position of the partner character PT.

  Further, in the present embodiment, when in the locked (LOCK) state, control is performed so as to perform a standby special action dedicated to the locked (LOCK) state. There are one or more types of standby special actions for each of the partner characters PT set, and whether or not to wait for the partner character PT at a place desired by the player, regardless of whether or not the link technique is executed. By taking special actions, it is possible to improve the strategy of the game and increase the interest of the player.

  For example, in the example shown in FIG. 8, the partner character PT is set with a standby special action of “stopping on the spot when it is locked and spitting fire in the direction it faces”.

  When the partner character PT is locked (LOCK), an image of fire is displayed in the direction facing the current position, and the physical strength parameter of the enemy character EN determined to have contacted the fire is decreased by a predetermined amount. As a result, the game can be advantageously advanced by the player.

  Note that the range of the effect range and the magnitude of the effect of the special action during standby are determined based on parameters relating to the ability of the partner character PT, and experience obtained by defeating the enemy character EN. By giving an item having an effect of changing the value or ability parameter to the partner character PT and growing or changing the ability parameter, it is possible to widen the range or increase the power. .

  The standby special action may not only affect all enemy characters, but may be set so that the influence varies or is not influenced at all depending on the type of enemy character.

  Further, not only those that affect the enemy character, but also various parameters of the character in the locked state may be changed. For example, a defense value parameter of a character in a locked state is improved by a predetermined value, or a predetermined value is added to or subtracted from a parameter that varies depending on the progress of the game, such as a physical strength value, according to the duration of the locked state. Then, it can be recovered.

  The link (LINK) is an action of activating a link technique by inputting an operation signal from the R1 button of the peripheral (controller) 114 as the operation unit again in the locked state (LOCK).

  In the present embodiment, first, as shown in FIG. 6, the ice pillar IW is displayed around the position where the link technique icon is displayed, and then, as shown in FIG. 7, the direction of the arrow indicated by the link technique icon In addition, a predetermined number of ice pillars IW set based on the effect level of the link technique and the like are sequentially displayed to form an ice wall IW.

  The hit determination of the ice pillar or ice wall IW and the enemy character is performed, and if it is determined that the enemy character has been hit, a process of subtracting the physical strength parameter of the enemy character is performed.

  Further, in order to express the characteristics as an ice column or ice wall, processing such as temporarily stopping the enemy character on the spot to prevent other actions from being performed may be performed.

  Further, the technique effect may be changed based on the distance between the player character PC and the partner character PT.

  For example, when the distance between two characters PC and PT is close, the effect range is narrowed by reducing the number of ice pillars IW, etc., but the enemy character's physical strength value subtraction is increased, so that the two characters PC and PT When the distance is long, instead of increasing the number of ice pillars IW and increasing the effect range, the physical strength subtraction value of the hit enemy character is decreased. Thereby, the player can control the effect range and power of the link technique according to the number and strength of enemy characters.

  The direction in which the link technique LINK is activated in the present embodiment is displayed by the directions of the arrows ICa and ICb of the link technique icon IC. This direction is set to be orthogonal to the line connecting the player character PC and the partner character PT, and is controlled so that the direction changes according to the positional relationship between the player character PC and the partner character PT.

  Thereby, after the partner character PT is locked (LOCK), the player controls the direction in which the link technique is activated, for example, the ice pillar IW is generated, by operating the player character PC and changing its positional relationship. It is possible to increase the interest of the game.

(Single player game processing flow)
Next, the processing operation of the one-player game by the game program of this embodiment will be described using the flowchart shown in FIG.

  First, when the game program starts, the CPU 102 determines whether or not there is a lock operation from the peripheral (controller) 114 (step S001).

  If there is no lock (LOCK) operation input, the player character PC or the partner character PT is acted on the basis of an operation signal, a predetermined algorithm, or the like, and the state is generated as a game image (step S002).

  If there is a lock (LOCK) operation input, the partner character PT is stopped at the position at the time of input and is set in a standby state (step S003). At this time, the locked partner character PT is controlled such that the defense parameter increases by a predetermined amount and the standby special action set for the partner character PT is performed.

  Next, in this standby state, the player character PC and the partner character PT are based on the positional relationship between the player character PC and the partner character PT at that time and the type of link technique that is set to be usable at that time. The form and display position of the icon image indicating the type of link technique and the effect range are determined, and the icon image is displayed on the display monitor 110 (step S004).

  Next, the CPU 102 determines whether or not the movement operation of the player character PC has been performed from the peripheral (controller) 114 (step S005). The movable range of the player character PC at this time is a predetermined range set based on the ability values of the player character PC and the partner character PT, the type of link technique set to be usable at that time, and the like. Controlled to be limited within range.

  When the movement operation input of the player character PC is performed, the player character PC is moved according to the operation input, and the icon image IC is displayed based on the movement position of the player character PC and the standby position of the partner character PT. The position and form are changed (step S006).

  When the movement operation input of the player character PC is not performed, the process of step S006 described above is skipped and the process moves to the next step S007.

  Next, the CPU 102 determines whether or not an operation for invoking a link technique is performed from the peripheral (controller) 114 (step S007).

  When an operation input of a link technique activation operation is performed, the type of link technique that is set to be usable at that time, and the positional relationship and distance between the player character PC and the partner character PT at that time Based on the above, the starting point of the link technique is determined (step S008).

  Note that the process of step S008 may be performed before the determination of step S007 is performed. In addition, the type of link technique in step S008 may be performed at any stage from step S001 to step S008. In this case, the shape of the link technique icon is an image that is not directly related to the type of the link technique.

  Next, the effect range of the link technique is determined based on the positional relationship and ability values of the player character PC and the partner character PT at that time, or parameters related to the magnitude of the effect of the link technique (link technique) ( In step S009), an image of the link technique is generated (step S010), the effect of the link technique is calculated for the enemy character located within the specified effect range, and the enemy character associated with the effect is calculated. Display control is performed (step S011). In this way, the link technique process of the single player game is completed.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, in the case of a one-player game, the player has, for example, the following advantages over the conventional game. That is, since the player character PC is moved with respect to the position of the partner character PT to determine the effect range and activation base point of the link technique, the technique possessed by the partner character PT is simply operated by the player. It is possible to make the player feel as if he / she is acting more closely with the partner character PT than what is generated.

(Two-player game)
Next, the characteristics of the two-player game by the game program of this embodiment will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing the link technique processing by the game program, and FIGS. 10 to 21 are specific examples of game images displayed on the display monitor 110 in the link technique processing.

  In the case of a two-player game, the player character operated by the first player and the player character operated by the second player cooperate to defeat the enemy. As shown in FIG. 10, the game is advanced by the first player character PC1 operated by the first player and the second player character PC2 operated by the second player.

  Usually, the first player operates one peripheral (controller) 114 to control the first player character PC1, and the second player operates the other peripheral (controller) 116 to operate the second player (controller) 116. The player character PC2 is controlled.

  In the case of a link technique, which will be described later, the first player operates to provide his / her first player character PC1 as a character for cooperative action, and the second player operates to operate his / her second character. The player character PC2 and the other player character PC1 perform cooperative action.

  On the other hand, the second player operates to provide his / her second player character PC2 as a character for cooperative action, and the first player operates to operate his / her first player character PC1 and others. The cooperative action may be executed by the second player character PC2.

  In addition, both players operate both the first player character PC1 and the second player character PC2 as characters for cooperative action, and both players operate with the first player character PC1. Two cooperative actions may be executed simultaneously by the second player character PC2.

  In the present embodiment, actions to be instructed to the player characters PC1 and PC2 in relation to the link technique include a lock (LOCK) and a link (LINK).

  The lock (LOCK) is, for example, an operation in which the first player fixes the position of the player character PC1 at the current position by inputting an operation signal from the R1 button of the peripheral (controller) 114 as an operation unit. . This is an action that also serves as a preparation for activating a cooperative action (hereinafter referred to as a link technique) with another player character PC2 to be described later.

  At this time, the player character PC2 determines the type of link technique from the player character PC1 until the link (LINK) state is canceled by activating a link technique described later or performing a cancel operation without activating it. You may set so that it becomes impossible to leave | separate more than the predetermined distance defined according to the capability parameter etc. of each character.

  As shown in FIG. 11, when the player character PC1 is in a locked state, the link technique icon expressing the location, direction, form, etc. of the link technique from the player character PC1 to the player character PC2. IC1 is displayed.

  At this time, the player character PC2 is displayed with an effect that the player character PC2 shines to indicate that the player character PC1 can perform a link technique during the lock operation.

  Further, in the lock (LOCK) state, the defense power of the player character PC1 is improved, and control is performed so as to perform a special action during standby dedicated to the lock (LOCK).

  A plurality of types of standby special actions are set in advance for the player character PC1, and the player character PC1 takes a standby special action at a place desired by the player separately from whether or not the link technique is executed. Can enhance the strategy and increase the interest of the player.

  For example, a special action for standby is set for the player character PC1 to “stop when it is locked and spit fire in the direction it faces”.

  As shown in FIG. 12, when the player character PC1 is locked (LOCK), an image that spits fire in the direction facing the current position is displayed, and the physical strength parameter of the enemy character determined to be in contact with the fire By reducing the amount by a predetermined amount, the game can be advantageously advanced by the player.

  Note that the width of the effect range and the magnitude of the effect of the special action during standby are determined based on parameters relating to the ability of the player character PC1, and the experience value obtained by defeating the enemy character. Alternatively, by giving an item having an effect of changing the ability parameter to the player character PC1 and growing / changing the ability parameter, it is possible to widen the range or increase the power. Further, the special action during standby may not only affect all enemy characters, but the influence may be changed depending on the type of enemy character, or may not be affected at all.

  In the link (LINK), a player who operates the player character PC2 in the locked state of the player character PC1 inputs an operation signal from the R1 button of the peripheral (controller) 116 that is the operation unit of the player. Thus, the action of activating the link technique between the player character PC1 and the player character PC2.

  The type of link technique is determined by the player on the locked side (player who operates the player character PC1). The player selects and designates the link technique of the player character PC1. The player who activates the link technique (the player who operates the player character PC2) can concentrate on the act of aiming at the link technique. A specific example of the link technique will be described later.

  Note that the type of link technique is not the player on the locked side (player who operates the player character PC1), but the player who activates the link technique (player who operates the player character PC2). It may be determined.

  11 and 12, the player character PC1 is in the locked state, but conversely, the player character PC2 may be in the locked state.

  As shown in FIG. 13, the second player operates the R1 button of the peripheral (controller) 116 as an operation unit to fix the position of his player character PC2 at the current position. When the player character PC2 is in the LOCK state, a ring-shaped link technique icon IC2 expressing the location and direction where the link technique is activated, its form, and the like is displayed.

  At this time, the player character PC1 is displayed with an effect that the player character PC1 shines to indicate that the player character PC2 can perform a link technique during the lock operation.

  As shown in FIG. 14, when the first player operates the R1 button of the peripheral (controller) 114 as an operation unit, a link technique by the player character PC1 and the player character PC2 is activated. The type of link technique is determined by the player on the locked side (player who operates the player character PC1).

  FIG. 15 shows a double lock state in which the player character PC1 is also locked and the player character PC2 is also locked. A link technique icon IC1 activated by the player character PC2 and a link technique icon IC2 activated by the player character PC1 are displayed, and in order to indicate that the link technique can be issued, Are displayed with the effect of shining.

  16 to 21 show game images in the case of another link technique.

  FIG. 16 is a game image in which the player character PC1 is locked. A link technique icon IC3 expressing the location and direction where the link technique is activated, its form, and the like is displayed from the player character PC1 to the player character PC2.

  FIG. 17 is a game image in which the link technique is activated by the operation of the second player in a state where the player character PC1 is in the locked state. When the second player operates the R1 button of the peripheral (controller) 116 as an operation unit, a link technique by the player character PC1 and the player character PC2 is activated.

  FIG. 18 is a game image in which the player character PC2 is locked. A link technique icon IC4 expressing the location, direction, form, etc. of the link technique is displayed at a position approximately in the middle between the position of the player character PC1 and the position of the player character PC2. The direction in which the link technique is activated is indicated by the directions of arrows IC4a and IC4b of the link technique icon IC4. This direction is set to be orthogonal to the line connecting the player character PC1 and the player character PC2, and is controlled so that the direction changes according to the positional relationship between the player character PC1 and the player character PC2.

  19 and 20 are game images in which the link technique is activated by the operation of the first player while the player character PC2 is in the locked state. When the first player operates the R1 button of the peripheral (controller) 114 as an operation unit, as shown in FIG. 19 in the direction of the arrow indicated by the link technique icon IC4 between the player character PC1 and the player character PC2. Then, a predetermined number of ice pillars IW set based on the effect level of the link technique, etc. sequentially appear, and finally an ice wall IW is formed as shown in FIG.

  FIG. 21 is a game image showing a double lock state in which the player character PC1 is also locked and the player character PC2 is also locked. A link technique icon IC3 activated by the player character PC2 and a link technique icon IC4 activated by the player character PC1 are displayed, and in order to indicate that the link technique can be issued, Are displayed with the effect of shining.

(Two-player game processing)
Next, the processing operation of the two-player game by the game program of this embodiment will be described using the flowchart shown in FIG.

  First, when the game program is started, the CPU 102 determines whether or not there is a lock operation from the peripheral (controller) 114 operated by the first player (step S101).

  When there is no lock operation input, the player character PC1 and the player character PC2 are caused to act on the basis of operation signals operated by the first player and the second player, and the state is used as a game image. Generate (step S102).

  When there is a lock operation input from the peripheral (controller) 114, the player character PC1 is stopped at the position at the time of input and is set in a standby state (step S103). At this time, the locked player character PC1 is controlled so that the defense parameter increases by a predetermined amount and the standby special action set for the player character PC1 is performed.

  Next, the CPU 102 determines whether or not there is a selection operation of the type of link technique from the peripheral (controller) 114 operated by the first player (step S104). If there is no selection operation for the type of link technique, the process waits until the selection operation is performed.

  If there is a selection operation of the type of link (LINK) technique from the peripheral (controller) 114, the positions of the player character PC and the player character PC1 are related based on the type of the selected link (LINK) technique, and The form and display position of an icon image indicating the type of link technique and the effect range are determined, and processing for displaying the icon image on the display monitor 110 is performed (step S105).

  Next, the CPU 102 determines whether or not an operation for invoking a link technique is performed from the peripheral (controller) 116 operated by another player (step S106). If there is no link technique activation operation, the system waits until the activation operation is performed.

  When an operation input of a link technique activation operation is performed, a link technique is performed based on the selected link technique and the positional relationship and distance between the player character PC1 and the player character PC2. Is determined (step S107).

  Next, the effect range of the link technique is determined based on the positional relationship between the player character PC1 and the player character PC2 at that time, the ability value, or a parameter related to the magnitude of the effect of the link technique. Step S108), an image of the link technique is generated (step S109), the effect of the link technique is calculated for the enemy character located within the specified effect range, and the enemy character associated with the effect is calculated. Display control is performed (step S110). In this way, the link technique processing of the two-player game is completed.

  When there is a lock operation from the peripheral (controller) 116 operated by the second player, the same processing as the flowchart of FIG. 9 is performed in an overlapping manner.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, in the case of a two-player game, the player has, for example, the following advantages over the conventional game. That is, since the player character PC1 is moved with reference to the position of the player character PC2 to determine the effect range and activation base point of the link technique, the technique possessed by the player character PC1 is simply generated by the player's operation. It is possible to make the player feel that the player character PC1 is acting more closely in cooperation with the player character PC1.

[Modified Embodiment]
The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and various modifications can be made.

  For example, in the above embodiment, the position of the partner character or the player character is fixed on the spot by the lock (LOCK) operation. However, the icon indicating that the link technique is activated at the position at the time of lock (LOCK). And the base point of the link technique may be determined based on that, and the partner character itself may continue to move.

  In this embodiment, the partner character usually moves independently according to a predetermined algorithm. However, the partner character is input from a controller connected to the game device or a controller connected to another game device via a communication line. May be made operable by a second player operating the controllers based on the input signals being made. At this time, the lock (LOCK) operation is performed by the operator of the partner character, and the effect range of the link (LINK) technique and the activation are controlled so as to be specified by the movement of the player character. It is possible to increase the interest of cooperative play by allowing the operators to jointly use the link technique.

  In the above embodiment, a so-called action game in which the player character behaves in real time based on the player's operation has been described. However, there is a player character or a partner character, and a cooperative behavior that is activated when they are combined. If possible, it can also be applied to thinking-type games such as board games and simulation games.
