[Outline of the mobile terminal 100]
A portable terminal (computer) 100 is an information processing apparatus capable of executing a game program. The mobile terminal 100 only needs to be a device that can execute the processing included in the game program (described in detail below). For example, a smartphone, a tablet terminal, a mobile phone, a consumer game machine, a personal computer It can be realized using other electronic devices.

  FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of a game screen displayed on the display unit 50 included in the mobile terminal 100. As illustrated in FIGS. 2A and 2B, the mobile terminal 100 displays the circuit part 1 on the display unit so that the circuit part (object) 1 falls from the top to the bottom of the game screen. 50. Each circuit part 1 constitutes a part of a circuit (movement path) 4 on which the cart (moving body) 2 can travel (move).

  The player completes the circuit 4 in which the cart 2 can move from the start point (start position) 3a to the goal point (target position) 3b by combining a plurality of circuit parts 1 described above. Thereafter, the player can run the cart 2 on each combined circuit part 1 (ie, along the completed circuit 4).

  As described above, the mobile terminal 100 can provide a game spanning a plurality of genres such as a puzzle game in which the circuit parts 1 are combined to complete the circuit 4 and a racing game in which the circuit 4 is run. Therefore, the mobile terminal 100 can realize a highly entertaining game that provides new entertainment.

[Configuration of mobile terminal 100]
FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating a main configuration of the mobile terminal 100. As shown in FIG. 1, the mobile terminal 100 includes a control unit 10 (an object presentation unit 11, an object selection unit 12, a route formation unit 13, a movement unit 14, a privilege display unit 15, a privilege grant unit 16, and a time restriction unit 17. , Object number limiting unit 18, path storage unit 19, input acquisition unit 21, acceleration acquisition unit 22, display processing unit 23), input unit 40 (input surface 41, input control unit 42), display unit 50, acceleration measurement unit 60 And a storage unit 30.

  The control unit 10 comprehensively controls various functions that the mobile terminal 100 has. The control unit 10 includes an object presentation unit 11, an object selection unit 12, a route formation unit 13, a movement unit 14, a privilege display unit 15, a privilege grant unit 16, a time limit unit 17, an object number limit unit 18, a path storage unit 19, An input acquisition unit 21, an acceleration acquisition unit 22, and a display processing unit 23 are included.

  The object presentation unit (object presentation function) 11 is a circuit part that constitutes a part of the circuit 4 in which the cart 2 can travel (move) (that is, the cart 2 travels when the cart 2 can move on it). 1 is sequentially presented to the player. Specifically, the object presentation unit 11 selects one (for example, randomly or in a predetermined order) from among a plurality of types of circuit parts 1 and selects the selected circuit parts 1 on the game screen. The display can be made from the top to the bottom (that is, the circuit part 1 falls).

  Here, the circuit part 1 includes a plurality of parts having various shapes. For example, the circuit part 1 includes (1) a linear part, (2) a T-shaped part, (3) a cross-shaped part, (4) a curved-shaped part (the curvature is arbitrary), (5) It may be a U-shaped (hairpin) shaped part, (6) a right-angle shaped part, (7) a Y-shaped part, (8) any other shaped part.

  The object presenting unit 11 outputs part information 6a related to the circuit part 1 presented to the player (including information that can identify the circuit part 1 and information related to the orientation of the circuit part 1) to the object selecting unit 12.

  The object selection unit (object selection function) 12 selects one direction in which the circuit part 1 constitutes a part of the circuit 4 from a plurality of directions that the circuit part 1 can take. Specifically, the object selection unit 12 acquires the trajectory information 5c (touch operation 5a from the player) from the input control unit 42, and the circuit part 1 presented by the object presenting unit 11 according to the trajectory information 5c. The part information 6a input from the object presenting unit 11 is changed so that can be displayed.

  FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of a process in which the portable terminal 100 (the object selection unit 12) rotates the circuit part 1 each time the player gives a touch operation. As illustrated in FIG. 3, the object selection unit 12 can change the orientation of the circuit part 1 in the assembled circuit 4. The object selection unit 12 outputs the part information 6a to the route formation unit 13.

  The path forming unit (path forming function) 13 forms the circuit 4 by combining a plurality of circuit parts 1 having one selected direction. Specifically, the path forming unit 13 arranges a plurality of circuit parts 1 in the game field according to the part information 6a input from the object selecting unit 12. The route forming unit 13 determines whether or not the circuit 4 is completed. When it is determined that the circuit 4 is completed, the circuit information 6b (which circuit part 1 is arranged in which position and in which direction) Are included in the moving unit 14, the privilege display unit 15, the privilege grant unit 16, the route storage unit 19, and the display processing unit 23.

  In addition, as a method for the route forming unit 13 to determine whether or not the circuit 4 is completed, (1) it is determined whether or not there is at least one route from the start point to the goal point; 2) A method for determining whether or not the player has tapped the “complete” button can be considered.

  Further, the path forming unit 13 does not necessarily have to determine whether or not the circuit 4 is completed. In this case, for example, when the total number of circuit parts 1 presented to the player reaches the number limited by the object number limiting unit 18, the circuit assembly phase ends, and the result of running the cart 2 in the racing phase (the relevant By determining only whether the cart 2 has reached the goal point), the suitability of the circuit 4 is indirectly evaluated. As a result, the mobile terminal 100 performs a test run of the cart 4 that does not reach the final goal (for example, the circuit 4 that cannot reach the goal point but can obtain all the benefits scattered in the field, the cart 2). The circuit 4 for performing the game can be made to be made by the player, so that a game with more variations can be provided.

  The moving unit (moving function) 14 moves the cart 2 along the circuit 4. Specifically, the moving unit 14 responds to the trajectory information 5c (touch operation 5a from the player) input from the input acquisition unit 21 and / or the acceleration information 5d input from the acceleration acquisition unit 22 (that is, The cart 2 is displayed on the display unit 50 so that the cart 2 travels on the circuit 4 (according to the maneuvering by the player). The moving unit (determination function) 14 determines whether or not the cart 2 has reached the goal point (second position, destination position) from the start point (first position, start position) existing in the field. To do. The moving unit 14 outputs the cart information 6c (including information related to the cart 2 that is running) to the display processing unit 23.

  The privilege display unit (privilege display function) 15 is an item (first privilege) or cart part 7 (first privilege) that can change the attribute (detailed later) set in the circuit part 1 or the cart 2. And / or privilege information 6d indicating points (second privilege) that can be exchanged with the cart part 7, the item, or the circuit part 1 is displayed at a predetermined position in the field where the circuit 4 can be assembled. The privilege display unit 15 outputs the privilege information 6d to the display processing unit 23.

  When the route of the circuit 4 reaching the position where the privilege information 6d is displayed is formed and the cart 2 moves to the position, the privilege grant unit (privilege grant function) 16 and the cart part 7 and / or the cart part. 7 or points that can be exchanged for circuit parts 1 are awarded to the player. The privilege grant unit 16 outputs the grant information 6e (including information that can identify the cart parts 7 given to the player) to the display processing unit 23.

  The time limiter (time limit function) 17 is limited to the time from the first position (for example, start point) to the second position (for example, goal point) as the cart 2 moves on the circuit 4. Imposing. By outputting the time limit information 6f to the display processing unit 23, the time limiter 17 can count down and display the time (remaining time until the goal is reached), for example. Thereby, the portable terminal 100 can give the player a feeling of tension with respect to maneuvering the cart 2.

  The object number limiting unit (object number limiting function) 18 imposes a limit on the number of circuit parts 1 to be combined by the path forming unit 13. The object number limit unit 18 can output the limit number information 6g to the path forming unit 13, for example, to count down and display the number. Thereby, the portable terminal 100 can give a player the tension with respect to combining the circuit parts 1.

  The path storage unit (path storage function) 19 stores the circuit 4 formed by the path forming unit 13 in the storage unit 30. Specifically, when the circuit information 6 b is input from the route forming unit 13, the route storage unit 19 stores the circuit information 6 b in the storage unit 30.

  The input acquisition unit (instruction acquisition function) 21 acquires an instruction from the player for the cart 2 from the input unit 40 so that the cart 2 can be operated by the player. Specifically, the input acquisition unit 21 acquires the trajectory information 5c (touch operation 5a from the player) from the input control unit 42 as the instruction, and outputs the trajectory information 5c to the moving unit 14.

  The acceleration acquisition unit (instruction acquisition function) 22 acquires acceleration information (acceleration) 5d indicating the tilt of the mobile terminal 100 from the acceleration measurement unit 60 as a player instruction acquired from the input unit 40.

  The display processing unit (display processing function) 23 generates screen information 5e for displaying a game screen on the display unit 50 according to various information input from each unit included in the control unit 10, and displays the screen information 5e on the display unit. (For example, see (a) and (b) of FIG. 2).

  FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram showing an example of a game screen displayed by the display processing unit 23, where (a) shows a game screen in the circuit assembly phase, and (b) shows a game screen in the racing phase. As illustrated in (a) and (b) of FIG. 4, the display processing unit 23 determines the viewpoint of the game screen visually recognized by the player from the circuit assembly phase (first phase) and the racing phase (second phase). The game screen can be displayed differently.

  For example, in the circuit assembly phase, the display processing unit 23 displays a two-dimensionally visible game screen by looking down at the entire circuit, and in the racing phase, the game field is viewed from a predetermined angle. By displaying it, it is possible to display a game screen that can be viewed in three dimensions (see FIG. 4B). Thereby, the mobile terminal 100 can give the player a sense of realism in the race.

  The input unit 40 receives a touch operation 5a by the player. In the present embodiment, the input unit 40 may be a touch panel that can detect multi-touch. The input unit 40 includes an input surface 41 and an input control unit 42. Note that the method of giving an input to the mobile terminal 100 is not limited to the touch operation 5a using the touch panel (for example, an input can be given by pressing a predetermined input key).

  The input surface 41 is a device (for example, a touch surface included in the touch panel) that can detect a position designated by the touch operation 5a by the player. The input surface 41 outputs coordinate information 5b corresponding to the specified position to the input control unit 42.

  The input control unit 42 acquires the coordinate information 5b from the input surface 41 at predetermined time intervals, and holds a series of coordinate information 5b as trajectory information 5c.

  The display unit 50 is a device that displays a game screen in accordance with the screen information 5 e input from the display processing unit 23. In the present embodiment, the display unit 50 may be a liquid crystal display. In FIG. 1, in order to clearly show the functions of the input unit 40 and the display unit 50, they are shown separately. However, for example, when the input unit 40 is a touch panel and the display unit 50 is a liquid crystal display, it is preferable that the two are configured integrally.

  The acceleration measurement unit 60 is a device that can measure acceleration (a vector amount including magnitude and direction) applied to the mobile terminal 100. The acceleration measuring unit 60 can be realized by, for example, a gyro sensor.

  FIG. 5 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of a form in which the player controls the cart 2. As illustrated in FIG. 5, the player can maneuver the cart 2 by gripping both ends of the mobile terminal 100 and rotating the mobile terminal 100 clockwise or counterclockwise so as to turn the handle. it can. That is, the mobile terminal 100 can change the direction in which the cart 2 travels according to the acceleration measured by the acceleration measurement unit 60 (the direction of gravity applied to the mobile terminal 100). Thereby, the portable terminal 100 can give the player a sense of reality that the user is actually driving the cart (particularly when the game screen illustrated in FIG. 4B is displayed).

  The storage unit 30 is a storage device configured by an arbitrary recording medium such as a hard disk, an SSD (silicon state drive), a semiconductor memory, or a DVD, for example, and a game program and data (for example, a circuit) that can control the mobile terminal 100 Information 6b) is stored. 1 shows a configuration in which the mobile terminal 100 includes the storage unit 30, the storage unit 30 is provided with an external storage device (for example, a server device) connected to the mobile terminal 100 so as to be communicable. Any storage medium) may be used.

[Attributes set for circuit part 1]
FIG. 6 is a schematic diagram showing an example of a game screen when the circuit part 1a and the circuit part 1b having attributes set are combined. An attribute may be set for the circuit part 1. Here, the attribute set to the circuit part 1 is arbitrary information indicating the property / feature of the circuit part 1, for example, (1) road surface type (asphalt, gravel road, cobblestone, soil, lava, etc.) , (2) road surface conditions (dry, wet, frozen, muddy, etc.), (3) presence or absence of obstacles (color cone (registered trademark), puddles, rocks, trees, etc.), ( 4) Presence / absence of accessories (guardrails, signs, etc.), (5) Other information that can define the characteristics and characteristics of the circuit part 1.

  As illustrated in FIG. 6, the surface of the circuit part 1a may be frozen. In this case, the attribute value “freezing” is stored in the attribute of “road surface state” set in the circuit part 1a. Alternatively, the road surface of the circuit part 1b may be gravel. In this case, an attribute value “gravel road” is stored in the attribute “type of road surface” set in the circuit part 1b.

  The display processing unit 23 can change the color, pattern, shape, and / or image for displaying the circuit part 1 on the display unit 50 according to the attribute set for the circuit part 1. For example, when the attribute indicating “road surface state” is set in the circuit part 1a and the attribute value “freezing” is stored in the attribute, the display processing unit 23 thins the circuit part 1a. It can be displayed in blue (color indicating a relationship with the attribute value so that the player can intuitively understand the attribute value). Alternatively, when the attribute indicating “road surface type” is set in the circuit part 1 b and the attribute value “gravel road” is stored in the attribute, the display processing unit 23 displays the circuit part 1 b in ocher color. And a pattern that can visually recognize the presence or absence of irregularities on the surface (a pattern that indicates a relationship with the attribute value so that the player can intuitively understand the attribute value) is displayed. You can also

  Thereby, the portable terminal 100 can enable the player to create the circuit 4 rich in variations.

  The circuit part 1 can have a three-dimensional shape. For example, the circuit part 1 may be (1) a solid intersection, (2) a slope (gradient is arbitrary), (3) a highway, (4) other parts having a height difference. The circuit part 1 can have a shape in which a plurality of circuit parts are combined. For example, the circuit part 1 may be a three-dimensional intersection combining a circuit part of an overpass and a circuit part of a road. In this way, by providing the circuit part 1 that enables three-dimensional assembly, the mobile terminal 100 can allow the player to create the circuit 4 rich in variations.

  In addition, the portable terminal 100 may change the display of each circuit part 1 in the circuit assembly phase and the racing phase. For example, the mobile terminal 100 can display the circuit part 1a in light blue in the circuit assembly phase, and can display the circuit part 1a in the “image with the road surface frozen” in the racing phase. Thereby, the portable terminal 100 can make the player intuitively grasp the attribute value in the circuit assembly phase, and can give the player a realistic feeling of the race in the racing phase.

[Attributes set for cart 2]
The cart 2 may also have attributes set. Here, the attribute set in the cart 2 is arbitrary information indicating the property / feature of the cart 2, for example, (1) identification information (name, ID, etc.) of the owner, (2) the cart 2 Performance (four-wheel drive, maximum output, braking force, maximum torque, fuel consumption, etc.), (3) Cart parts 7 currently installed in the cart 2 (engine, body, tire, amount of nitro, etc.), (4) cart 2 levels, (5) special functions that the cart 2 can exhibit (can jump, can stop suddenly, warp, etc.), and (6) other information that can define the characteristics and features of the cart 2.

  Then, the moving unit 14 can move the cart 2 according to the combination of the attribute set for the circuit part 1 and the attribute set for the cart 2. For example, (1) an attribute indicating “road surface state” is set in the circuit part 1 (part of the circuit 4) on which the cart 2 is traveling, and an attribute value “freezing” is stored in the attribute. And (2) when the attribute indicating “tire” is set in the cart 2 and the attribute value “normal tire” is stored in the attribute, the moving unit 14 causes the cart 2 to slip. The cart 2 can be moved as described above.

  Or, (1) the attribute indicating “type of road surface” is set in the circuit part 1 on which the cart 2 is traveling, the attribute value “gravel road” is stored in the attribute, and (2) the When the attribute indicating “performance” is set in the cart 2 and the attribute value “four-wheel drive” is stored in the attribute, the moving unit 14 uses the normal cart 2 (for example, a two-wheel drive cart). Then, the cart 2 can be moved so as to run through a “gravel road” that cannot be run.

  Thus, the player needs to complete the circuit 4 in consideration of the performance of the cart 2 that the player owns so that the route from the start point to the goal point becomes easy to travel. Therefore, since the portable terminal 100 can request the player to have a strategy for combining the circuit parts 1, it is possible to provide a more interesting game.

[Granting benefits]
FIG. 7 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of a game screen on which privilege information 6d is displayed. As illustrated in FIG. 7, the privilege display unit 15 is a privilege that indicates a cart part 7 that can change the attribute set in the cart 2 and / or points that can be exchanged with the cart part 7 or the circuit part 1. The information 6d can be displayed at a predetermined position in the field. The player not only completes the circuit 4 in which the cart 2 can move from the start point to the goal point, but also forms the circuit 4 so as to form a route that can collect privilege information 6d scattered in the field. It can also be completed.

  As described above, when the route of the circuit 4 reaching the position where the privilege information 6d is displayed is formed and the cart 2 moves to the position, the privilege granting unit 16 gives the cart part 7 or the like to the player. . Specifically, the privilege granting unit 16 is configured such that the cart 2 travels on each circuit part 1 to coordinate the cart 2 (for example, two-dimensional coordinates with the upper left of the display unit 50 as the origin). When the coordinates corresponding to the position where the privilege information 6d is displayed are substantially the same, the privilege granting unit 16 determines that the cart 2 has reached the displayed position. And the privilege provision part 16 provides the said cart parts 7 etc. to a player as a privilege at the time of (1) the said arrival, or (2) when the said cart 2 arrives at a goal point.

  Therefore, since the portable terminal 100 can arouse the player's enthusiasm for the game, a more interesting game can be realized.

  Further, the privilege granting unit 16 may, for example, (1) perform a lottery and the player wins, (2) if the player runs through a predetermined circuit, (3) against the circuit 4 completed by the player. When compliments are obtained from other players (for example, when a number of “Likes” are collected), (4) when a high ranking is awarded in the ranking of the time of running through a predetermined circuit, (5) the number of compliments obtained above The player can give the cart parts 7 or the like as a privilege to the player when a higher ranking is won in the ranking.

  Therefore, since the portable terminal 100 can further arouse the player's enthusiasm for the game, a more interesting game can be realized.

[Carrying circuit part 1, cart 2, and cart part 7]
The player can have the circuit part 1. In this case, the object presentation unit 11 can select the circuit parts 1 to be sequentially presented to the player from the circuit parts 1 held by the player.

  For example, the player “asphalt-paved, dry T-shaped road surface” (that is, “type of road surface” (attribute value: asphalt), and “road surface condition” (attribute) If the attribute indicating value: dry) is set), the object presentation unit 11 may, for example, have the circuit held by the player at a frequency (predetermined ratio) once every five times. The part 1 can be selected and the circuit part 1 can be presented to the player. In this case, the player can specify in advance the circuit parts 1 that are allowed to be selected by the object presentation unit 11.

  Thereby, since the player can complete the ideal circuit 4 with a good view, the portable terminal 100 can arouse the player's enthusiasm for the game, and can realize a highly interesting game.

  The player can also have a cart 2 and a cart part 7. For example, the player can have a plurality of carts 2 having different performances (that is, different set attributes) or can have a plurality of cart parts 7 having different attributes that can be changed.

  Thereby, since the portable terminal 100 can give a player a feeling of attachment to the cart 2, the player's enthusiasm for the game can be aroused.

[Customization of Circuit Parts 1 and Cart 2]
The player can customize the circuit parts 1 owned by the player. For example, by consuming (in exchange for points) the points granted by the privilege granting unit 16, the player (1) changes the shape of the circuit part 1 (for example, “T-shape” is changed to “cross shape”). (2) A new attribute is set for the circuit part 1 (for example, the attribute of “accessory” is newly set and the attribute value of “pause indicator” is stored), (3) Customization such as changing the attribute value of the attribute set in the circuit part 1 (for example, changing “gravel road” to “asphalt”) can be performed.

  As described above, since the object presenting unit 11 can select the circuit parts 1 to be sequentially presented to the player from the circuit parts 1 possessed by the player, the player presents the customized circuit part 1 to the object presenting unit 11. By designating as an object to be selected by (1), it is possible to aim at completion of an ideal circuit 4 using the circuit part 1.

  Thereby, since the portable terminal 100 can arouse the enthusiasm of the player with respect to a game, it can implement | achieve a game with much more interesting property.

[Other configurations]
The portable terminal 100 can steer the cart 2 without receiving an instruction from the player (that is, the cart 2 automatically moves from the viewpoint of the player). In this case, the mobile terminal 100 can cause the cart 2 to run from, for example, a player combining the circuit parts 1 without dividing the phase into two (circuit assembly phase, racing phase). Thereby, since the portable terminal 100 can concentrate a player on completing the circuit 4, the threshold for playing a game can be lowered.

  Further, the mobile terminal 100 can store not only the circuit 4 completed by the player (the circuit information 6b can be stored in the storage unit 30) but also a record of the player running through the circuit 4. In this case, when the player plays the circuit 4 again, the portable terminal 100 can display not only the cart 2 currently running but also the cart 2 at the time of recording (so-called “ghost display”). . In particular, the mobile terminal 100 can display the cart 2 that records the shortest lap together.
