The field display unit 32 displays a field F with the night sky as a motif.

  Field F is a main area where a game is actually played. The field F is surrounded by walls that cannot be seen in the three directions of the upper end U, the right end R, and the left end L. In the field F, a houseboat 33 (33a, 33b, 33c), a play time display unit 34, a fire type 36, and a miscellaneous fish ball 37 and a quadrilateral ball 38 which are different types of fireworks balls are arranged.

Houseboats 33a, 33b, and 33c correspond to the respective operation units 5a, 5b, and 5c (FIG. 1) operated by the players Pa, Pb, and Pc. Houseboats 33a, 33b, 33c are arranged in the downward direction H2 of the field F. The houseboats 33a, 33b, 33c are colored in the same color as the display colors of the score display units 31a, 31b, 31c of each player P. For example, the houseboat 33a is colored blue, the houseboat 33b is colored red, and the houseboat 33c is colored green.
Each player Pa, Pb, Pc can easily identify the houseboat 33 (33a, 33b, 33c) operated by the player P (Pa, Pb, Pc) by the color of the score display unit 31 (31a, 31b, 31c). Can be. The houseboats 33a, 33b, and 33c move in the left-right direction X as if traveling on the water in response to the operation of the player P (Pa, Pb, Pc).

  The play time display unit 34 displays the remaining play time in the upward direction H1 of the field display unit 32. The play time displayed on the play time display unit 34 is counted down simultaneously with the start of play. And when play time becomes 0, the control part 10 complete | finishes a play. The control unit 10 performs a process of clearing the play if each player P achieves a predetermined quota by the end of play, and performs a game over process if the predetermined quota cannot be achieved.

  The fire type 36 is arranged adjacent to the ceiling portion of the houseboats 33a, 33b, 33c before the start of play, and is colored in the same color as each of the houseboats 33a, 33b, 33c. The fire type 36 moves in the upward direction H1 simultaneously with the start of play. The fire type 36 is composed of a seed and a tail portion. The tail indicates the movement direction of the fire type 36 and is displayed so as to extend the tail in the direction opposite to the movement direction. The control unit 10 may represent the moving speed of the fire type 36 by the length of the tail. Further, the control unit 10 may not display the tail of the fire type 36 at all times, but may display the tail only when the movement direction of the fire type 36 is changed, such as being repulsed.

A plurality of small fish balls 37 and quadrilateral balls 38 are arranged at a position slightly above the center in the vertical direction H of the field F from the left and right directions X1 to X2. The small fish ball 37 and the quadrilateral ball 38 are fireworks balls having a spherical shape. Moreover, the control part 10 displays the miscellaneous fish ball 37 and the quadrilateral ball 38 so that each can be distinguished.

In addition, the control unit 10 causes the large fireworks 40 to be displayed on the quadrilateral sphere 38 at a location corresponding to the quadrangular sphere 38 when the fireball 36 hits the quadrangular sphere 38. The small fireworks 39 and the large fireworks 40 are displayed in such a manner that they blossom in the night sky. The colors of the small fireworks 39 and the large fireworks 40 are the same as the colors of the fire type 36.

(Return processing of fire type 36 by houseboat 33)
FIG. 4 is a diagram showing, in a simplified manner, a part of the field F (see FIG. 3), in which the fire type 36 hits the houseboat 33a and changes the fire type 36 and returns it.
The operation element moving unit 12 moves the houseboat 33a in the left-right direction X toward the fire type 36 that has fallen in the downward direction H2 (see FIG. 3) displayed by the display unit 11, and displays the fire type 36. The means 11 displays the houseboat 33a so as to strike back the fire type 36 that has fallen in the downward direction H2.

  FIG. 4A shows that the fire type 36 having a color different from the color of the houseboat 33a is returned to the houseboat 33a, so that the color of the firetype 36 is changed when the firetype 36 contacts the houseboat 33a and then leaves the houseboat 33a. The aspect which changes to the same color as the color of the houseboat 33a is shown. In this way, the fire type 36 is returned to the houseboat 33, so that the control unit 10 changes the color of the firetype 36 to the same color as the color of the fired houseboat 33 returned.

FIG. 4B and FIG. 4C show a mode in which the fire type 36 is returned by the two houseboats 33a and 33b in a state where the two houseboats 33a and 33b are arranged to overlap each other. FIG. 4B shows an example in which the fire type 36 before being fired is the same color as the houseboat 33a. Moreover, FIG.4 (c) shows the example in case the fire type 36 before being returned is a color different from both of the houseboats 33a and 33b.
As shown in FIG. 4B, when the fire type 36 before being fired is the same color as the houseboat 33a of the houseboats 33a and 33b to be fired, the color of the fire type 36 does not change even if it is beaten. Thus, even if the fire type 36 is returned by the houseboats 33a and 33b, the control unit 10 does not change the color when the fire type 36 has the same color as any color of the houseboat 33.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 4C, when the color of the fire type 36 before being returned is different from any color of the houseboats 33a and 33b to be returned, the fire type 36 has been returned by the houseboats 33a and 33b. The color is changed to one of the houseboats 33a and 33b. In FIG. 4C, the fire type 36 that has been returned has changed to the same color as the houseboat 33b. As shown in FIG. 4C, when the color of the fire type 36 before being returned is different from any of the colors of the houseboats 33a and 33b to be returned, the control unit 10 changes the color of the fire type 36 to the houseboat 33a, Control is performed so as to change to any of the colors 33b. At this time, the color of the changing fire type 36 may be determined randomly by the control unit 10.

As described above, the game machine 1 can distinguish the houseboat 33 for each player P by color. Further, the game machine 1 changes the color of the fire type 36 that has been returned to correspond to the color of the houseboat 33 that has been returned, so that the fire type 36 that is linked to the score by hitting the fireworks ball is visually displayed to the player P. Can be displayed in an easy-to-understand manner.
Moreover, the game machine 1 can provide the play of the new aspect that the houseboat 33 overlaps. In addition, the game machine 1 can change the color of the fire type 36 even when the fire type 36 is hit in a state where the houseboats 33 overlap each other.

(Movement of fire type 36 and production process in field F)
FIG. 5 shows the manner and effects when the fire type 36 hits a wall surrounding the three directions of the field F excluding the downward direction H2 (see FIG. 3) or when the fire type 36 moves in the downward direction H2. It is a figure which simplifies and shows a part of (refer FIG. 3) for description.
FIG. 5A shows the operation when the fire type 36 hits the left end L. FIG. In response to the fire type 36 hitting the left end L, the display unit 11 rebounds and displays the fire type 36 at a reflection angle corresponding to an incident angle that is an angle that is a moving direction of the fire type 36 with respect to the left end L. Even when the fire type 36 hits the right end R, the display unit 11 bounces and displays the fire type 36 in the same manner as when the fire type 36 hits the left end L.

FIG. 5B shows the operation when the fire type 36 hits the upper end U. In response to the fire type 36 hitting the upper end portion U, the display unit 11 bounces and displays the fire type 36 at a reflection angle corresponding to the incident angle.
In this way, the fire type 36 operates to bounce off the wall or ceiling by the left end L, the right end R, and the upper end U surrounding the field F except in the downward direction H2.

  FIG. 5C shows the operation when the fire type 36 moves in the downward direction H2. The display means 11 displays an effect as if the fire type 36 that fell on the water surface exploded on the surface in response to the fire type 36 moving to the end in the downward direction H2. In this case, it represents a play failure. Next, the display unit 11 displays an image of a character representing a state in which the audience watching the fireworks is burnt black and angry. After a predetermined time (for example, about 3 seconds) has elapsed, the display unit 11 erases the character image, generates a fire type 36, and displays the image so as to move upward from the position where it fell and exploded. In this way, the game machine 1 can display a character image for a predetermined time, thereby allowing the time until the fire type 36 is generated to be a penalty for play.

(Treatment of fireworks with fire type 36)
FIG. 6 is a diagram showing a mode in which a part of the field F is simplified for explanation, in a case where the fire type 36 hits a small fish ball 37 and a quadrilateral ball 38 which are fireworks balls.
FIG. 6A shows a case where the fire type 36 hits the small fish ball 37. When the fire type 36 hits the small fish ball 37, the display unit 11 displays the small fireworks 39 having the same color as the color of the fire type 36 at the display position of the small fish ball 37. The display means 11 erases the small fireworks 39 by gradually displaying it in a thin color. The display means 11 erases the small fish ball 37 in accordance with erasing the small fireworks 39. Accordingly, the control unit 10 adds 1 to the norm achievement number of the player P who operates the houseboat 33 having the same color as the color of the fire type 36 and updates the score display unit 31. The display means 11 reflects the fire type 36 by reflecting it on the small fish ball 37 and displays it.

  FIG. 6B shows a case where the fire type 36 hits the quadrilateral ball 38. When the fire type 36 hits the quadrilateral sphere 38, the display unit 11 displays the large fireworks 40 having the same color as the color of the fire type 36 at the display position of the quadrisphere 38. The large fireworks 40 are larger than the small fireworks 39 and are large enough to cover the quadrilateral sphere 38 and its surroundings. Thereafter, when there is a small fish ball 37 surrounding the quadrilateral ball 38, the display means 11 surrounds the quadrilateral ball 38 as if the small fish ball 37 was induced by the explosion of the quadrilateral ball 38. A small firework 39 is displayed at the position of the small fish ball 37.

  The display means 11 erases the large fireworks 40 and the small fireworks 39 by gradually displaying them thinly. Thereby, the control unit 10 adds the numerical value of 1 added to the number of fireworks blooming in the night sky to the number of achievements of the player P who operates the houseboat 33 having the same color as the color of the fire type 36, The score display unit 31 is updated. The quadrilateral sphere 38 achieves two norms by erasing. Further, the miscellaneous fish ball 37 achieves a norm of 1 by being erased. For example, in the case shown in FIG. 6 (b), 1 is added to 8 which is the total of the number of one quadrangular sphere 38 and the seven small fish spheres 37 surrounding the quadrangular sphere 38. The number of quotas achieved. Moreover, the display means 11 reflects the fire type 36 by reflecting it on the quadrilateral sphere 38 and displays it. Note that the miscellaneous fish spheres 37 surrounding the circumference of the quadrilateral sphere 38 are erased almost at the same time.

  In this way, the game machine 1 displays the miscellaneous fish balls 37 and the quadrilateral balls 38, which are different types of fireworks balls, and gives them by changing the number of fireworks balls to be erased according to the type of the firework balls. Since the score is also changed, an interesting play can be provided.

(Operation of houseboat 33)
Next, the relationship between the operation of the operation unit 5 and the houseboat 33 will be described.
FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating the relationship between the operation of the operation unit 5 and the houseboat 33 according to the present embodiment.
FIG. 7A shows the operation unit 5 and has four convex buttons 5L, 5R, 5U, and 5D having a diameter of about 50 mm. The operation unit 5 is provided with buttons 5L and 5R in the left and right directions from the position operated by the player P, and buttons 5U and 5D in the far front direction. The buttons 5L and 5R are buttons for determining the direction (left and right) in which the houseboat 33 moves. The buttons 5U and 5D are not used in this game.
The association between the above buttons 5L, 5R, 5U, and 5D and the processing content is stored in the operation correspondence table 22 shown in FIG.
The horizontal movement by the buttons 5L and 5R may be performed by moving the houseboat 33 by a predetermined interval each time the player P presses the buttons 5L and 5R, or by continuously pressing the houseboat 33 You may increase the movement speed. Further, it is desirable that the movement of the houseboat 33 moves on the water so that inertia works. That is, even if the player P stops the operation on the buttons 5L and 5R, the control unit 10 controls the houseboat 33 so that the moving speed of the houseboat 33 is gradually decreased and proceeds with inertia.

Next, the game process of the game machine 1 described above will be described.

In the field F in the initial state, as described above with reference to FIG. . The control unit 10 has a map of a plurality of patterns related to the arrangement of the small fish balls 37 and the quadrilateral balls 38 in the storage unit 20, and arranges the small fish balls 37 and the quadrilateral balls 38 by selecting and determining at random. You can do it.

In step S <b> 2, the control unit 10 (display unit 11) displays the play screen 30 including the field F. In the subsequent processing, the display unit 11 displays the play screen 30, but the description is omitted as appropriate. Then, the control unit 10 raises the fire type 36 in the upward direction H1 (see FIG. 3). At this time, the fire types 36 are colored in the same color as the houseboat 33 arranged adjacent to each other before being launched.
In step S <b> 3, the control unit 10 determines whether or not the fire type 36 has hit the small fish ball 37 or the quadrilateral ball 38 that is a fireworks ball. If it hits the fireworks ball (step S3: YES), the control unit 10 moves the process to step S4. On the other hand, when not hitting the fireworks ball (step S3: NO), the control unit 10 moves the process to step S5.

  In step S4, the control unit 10 performs a fireworks process. Thereafter, the control unit 10 moves the process to step S5.

Here, the firework processing will be described with reference to FIG.
First, in step S <b> 21, the control unit 10 determines whether or not the firework ball hit by the fire type 36 is the quadrilateral ball 38. When it is the quadrilateral sphere 38 (step S21: YES), the control unit 10 moves the process to step S22. On the other hand, if it is not the quadrilateral sphere 38 (step S21: NO), since the firework ball that has been hit is the small fish ball 37, the control unit 10 moves the process to step S24.
In step S22, the control unit 10 performs a large fireworks process. As the large fireworks process, the control unit 10 displays the large fireworks 40 having the same color as that of the fire type 36 at the position of the quadrisphere 38 where the fire type 36 has hit (see FIG. 6B). Then, the control unit 10 gradually erases the large fireworks 40 from the field F, and the erasing unit 13 erases the quadrisphere 38. And the control part 10 (score provision means 14) adds 2 which is the norm number of the erased quadrisphere 38 to the norm achievement number of the corresponding player P. FIG. The control unit 10 updates the score display unit 31 of the corresponding player P.

In step S <b> 23, the control unit 10 determines whether or not there is a small fish ball 37 surrounding the erased quadrilateral ball 38. When the small fish ball 37 exists (step S23: YES), the control unit 10 moves the process to step S24. On the other hand, when the small fish ball 37 does not exist (step S23: NO), the control part 10 complete | finishes this process.
In step S24, the control unit 10 performs a small fireworks process. As the small fireworks processing, the control unit 10 applies the small fireworks 39 having the same color as the fire type 36 to the position of the small fish ball 37 that the fire type 36 has hit (see FIG. 6A), or around the quadrilateral bulb 38 that has hit the fire type 36. Is displayed at the position of the small fish ball 37 that surrounds (see FIG. 6B). Then, the control unit 10 gradually erases the small fireworks 39 from the field F, and the eraser 13 erases the small fish balls 37. And the control part 10 (score provision means 14) adds the number of the erased small fish balls 37 to the quota achievement number of the corresponding player P. The control unit 10 updates the score display unit 31 of the corresponding player P. Then, the control part 10 complete | finishes this process.

Returning to FIG. 8, in step S <b> 5, the control unit 10 determines whether or not an operation from the operation unit 5 has been accepted. When the operation is accepted (step S5: YES), the control unit 10 moves the process to step S6. On the other hand, when the operation is not received (step S5: NO), the control unit 10 moves the process to step S8.
In step S6, the control unit 10 determines operation information. Specifically, the control unit 10 determines operation information for the operation received from the operation unit 5 by extracting processing contents based on the operation correspondence table 22.
In step S7, the control unit 10 (operation element moving unit 12) moves the houseboat 33 based on the operation information. Thereafter, the control unit 10 moves the process to step S8.

In step S <b> 8, the control unit 10 determines whether or not the fire type 36 has hit the houseboat 33. When the fire type 36 hits the houseboat 33 (step S8: YES), the control unit 10 moves the process to step S9. On the other hand, when the fire type 36 does not hit the houseboat 33 (step S8: NO), the control unit 10 moves the process to step S10.
In step S9, the control unit 10 performs a fire type process. Then, the control part 10 moves a process to step S10.

Here, the fire type process will be described with reference to FIG.
In step S31, the control unit 10 determines whether or not there are two or more houseboats 33 that have hit the fire type 36, that is, whether or not the fire type 36 has hit the two or more houseboats 33 overlapped. When there are two or more houseboats 33 that have hit the fire type 36 (step S31: YES), the control unit 10 moves the process to step S32. On the other hand, when the houseboat 33 hit by the fire type 36 is 1 (step S31: NO), the control unit 10 moves the process to step S34.
In step S <b> 32, the control unit 10 determines whether or not the color of the fire type 36 matches any color of the two or more houseboats 33 that have hit the fire type 36. If the colors match (step S32: YES), the control unit 10 moves the process to step S35. On the other hand, if the colors do not match (step S32: NO), the control unit 10 moves the process to step S33.

In step S33, the control unit 10 changes the color of the fire type 36 by determining the color of the fire type 36 as one of the colors of the two or more houseboats 33 hit by the fire type 36 (FIG. 4 (c)). The color of the fire type 36 may be determined at random by the control unit 10 or may be the color of the houseboat 33 having the fastest moving speed when the fire type 36 hits. The determination of the color of the fire type 36 may be the color of the houseboat 33 in which the fire type 36 hits the center position of the houseboat 33. Thereafter, the control unit 10 moves the process to step S35.
In step S34, the control unit 10 changes the color of the fire type 36 to the color of the houseboat 33 that the fire type 36 has hit (see FIG. 4A). Thereafter, the control unit 10 moves the process to step S35.
In step S35, the fire type 36 is reflected by the houseboat 33 and moved. Then, the control part 10 complete | finishes this process.

Returning to FIG. 8, in step S <b> 10, the control unit 10 determines whether or not the fire type 36 has dropped on the water surface. When the fire type 36 falls on the water surface (step S10: YES), the control unit 10 moves the process to step S11. On the other hand, when the fire type 36 has not fallen on the water surface (step S10: NO), the control unit 10 moves the process to step S12.
In step S11, the control unit 10 performs a process at the time of dropping. In the process at the time of the fall, the control unit 10 displays the spectator character image when the fire type 36 is dropped, and after a predetermined time has elapsed, a new fire type 36 is generated and launched (see FIG. 5C). . Thereafter, the control unit 10 moves the process to step S12.

  In step S12, the control unit 10 determines whether the time limit has elapsed. When the time limit has elapsed (step S12: YES), the control unit 10 moves the process to step S13, performs an end process, and then ends the process. The termination process means displaying on the display unit 3 a play result indicating whether the game is cleared or the game is over. On the other hand, when the time limit has not elapsed (step S12: NO), the control unit 10 moves the process to step S14.

In step S14, the control unit 10 determines whether or not the time limit is within 10 seconds. When the time limit is within 10 seconds (step S14: YES), the control unit 10 moves the process to step S15. On the other hand, if the time limit is not within 10 seconds (step S14: NO), the control unit 10 moves the process to step S3.
In step S15, the control unit 10 adds and displays the fire type 36. The game machine 1 can make it easy to achieve the quota while increasing the difficulty of the game by adding the fire type 36 when the remaining time limit is reduced. Therefore, the game machine 1 can urge the player P to improve play motivation by adding the fire type 36. Thereafter, the control unit 10 moves the process to step S3.

  As described above, the game machine 1 displays the field F in which a plurality of houseboats 33, a fire type 36 returned by the houseboat 33, and a plurality of fireworks balls hit by the fire type 36 are displayed. Can do. In addition, since the operation unit 5 (5a, 5b, 5c) corresponds to the houseboat 33 (33a, 33b, 33c), the game machine 1 can provide play by a plurality of players P (Pa, Pb, Pc). Furthermore, when the game machine 1 moves the houseboat 33 to the left and right and strikes back the fire type 36, and the fire type 36 that strikes back hits the fireworks ball, the player 1 gives a score to the player P who bounces back the fire type 36. It is possible to drive P to be competitive by trying to get a score by returning the fire type 36 earlier than other players P.
