Description

The present invention relates to processing technology for a three-dimensional shooting game. More specifically, the present invention relates to processing of generation, movement, collision determination, and the like of a target object in a three-dimensional shooting game effective for education, brain training, and stress cancellation.

A three-dimensional shooting game is known as a type of computer game in which a player attacks target objects one after another using attacking means such as missiles, bullets and lasers.
As a technique relating to a conventional three-dimensional shooting game, for example, Patent Document 1 discloses a technique for enhancing the gameability of a shooting game by making it difficult to hit a bullet with a plurality of targets by one shooting operation. It is done.
Further, Patent Document 2 discloses a technique for enabling a user to enjoy shooting operations without losing three-dimensional display by always displaying enemy characters.
Although the invention relates to household account book software, as an invention targeted at characters such as numbers and alphabets, for example, Patent Document 3 displays the numbers on the screen of the user terminal so as to rotate in order. A technique is disclosed that allows the user to select numbers by means of shooting.

Patent No. 3325265 JP 2001-149643 A Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2003-76846

However, the prior art related to the 3D shooting game has the following problems.

Conventional target objects are enemy aircraft, enemy characters, and the like, and it has not been attempted to obtain a certain technical effect depending on the type and shape of the target object. For this reason, there were few motivations to make the target object a character such as numbers and alphabets, and to make the shape into a shape of characters such as numbers and alphabets. In other words, as long as the game can be made interesting, it can be said that the target object may have any type and shape. For example, in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2 as well, there is no description or suggestion of intent to obtain a certain technical effect depending on the type and shape of the target object.

Incidentally, the problem to be solved by the invention of Patent Document 1 is that, in the conventional "shooting game apparatus, a plurality of targets are only required to fire at an appropriate place while overlapping each other on the game screen, It is stated that the game can not be sufficiently enhanced because the game content is still simple that the target of the game is shot through at the same time. On the other hand, in the present invention, as described later, it is possible to fly the bullet object toward the other target object behind the target object by passing through the inside of the target object, so that the game can be sufficiently enhanced. .

The technique disclosed in Patent Document 2 aims to make the target object easily visible to the player so that the player can enjoy the shooting operation. However, in the actual battlefield, the enemy will appear in a position that is easy to see from me, fighting with a series of flows such as shooting planning / commanding, searching / finding / shooting judgment, launch / impact correction, shooting effect judgment. Is usually impossible. Therefore, it is desirable that in shooting games as well, it is desirable to be able to experience the stage of a search enemy or the like from the viewpoint of enhancing the sense of reality and the game characteristics.

In particular, in the case of a portable terminal such as a smartphone, the three-dimensional space that can be represented on a small display is not wide. Also, in order to enhance the game, it is necessary to increase the types of targets. For example, in the case of arithmetic games, at least 10 types of 0 to 9 are required. For this reason, it is desirable to make it possible to add information necessary for identification to individual targets, while making the targets as small as possible to make it difficult to predict the position where they appear. By this, it is possible to enhance the sense of tension and presence at the time of search and improve the game characteristics. In other words, it becomes possible to simulate a series of flows such as search, detection, shooting judgment, launch and impact correction, and shooting effect judgment. Therefore, the present invention adopts characters such as numbers and alphabets as the smallest form that can identify the target.

In the present invention, the player's brain is trained by solving problems such as arithmetic quickly and by frequently moving eyes to defeat the target object early, which is effective for brain training. In addition, since the feeling of exhilaration when hit in a practical situation is large, it is also effective in stress relief.

In the technique disclosed in Patent Document 3, it is determined that the numbers are displayed so as to change in sequence like a slot machine, and the user shoots or presses the enter key when the corresponding numbers are output. The operation was performed, and it was essentially a slot machine.

By the way, when an infant starts to learn letters such as arithmetics and alphabets, he must learn from the shapes of letters such as numbers and alphabets. At this time, it is effective to repeat recalling the shape of letters such as numbers and alphabets. However, in the conventional three-dimensional shooting game, there has been no example in which the target object is formed into the shape of characters such as numbers and alphabets in order to learn the shapes of characters such as numbers and alphabets. In the three-dimensional shooting game, it can be said that it is an implicit premise to set an enemy aircraft, an enemy character, etc. as a target object, but there was little motivation for setting letters such as numbers and alphabets as the target object. Furthermore, the characteristic of the three-dimensional space that the target object looks small when it is far, and can be seen only when it is hidden by a shield such as a forest, a hill, a city area, a cloud, etc. There was little motivation for trying to use it to learn the shape of the letters. On the other hand, the present invention is intended to actively use the above characteristics of the three-dimensional space for learning and the like of characters such as numerals and alphabets.

In the case of arithmetic games, the numbers themselves are the target of learning, but when the numbers appear small in the distance or when only a part of the numbers is visible hidden in a shield such as a forest, hill, city area, clouds etc. There has been no math game to let you do it.

In addition, although it is conceivable to simply paste characters such as numbers and alphabets to target objects such as enemy planes and enemy characters, as described above, since the three-dimensional space that can be represented on a small display is not wide, enemy planes and There is a problem that the number which can be arranged is reduced by the area occupied by the enemy character and the like. In addition, there is a problem that it becomes easy to predict the position where the enemy aircraft, enemy character and the like appear, and the interest of the search enemy is lost. On the other hand, if characters such as numbers and alphabets themselves are used as target objects as in the present invention, more target objects can be arranged. In addition, it becomes difficult to predict the position where the enemy aircraft, enemy character, etc. appear, and the interest of the search enemy is increased, and the game performance can be enhanced.

Also, in the conventional method of simply pasting characters such as numbers and alphabets onto target objects such as enemy planes and enemy characters, for example, when the number of digits to be displayed is large, individual enemy planes and enemy characters Since the size and shape of etc. are generally fixed, there is a problem that the numbers need to be displayed small. Generally, about two digits are considered to be the limit. On the other hand, if the number itself is made into the target object as in the present invention, this problem does not occur because the length of the target object can be changed according to the number of digits of the number.

Also, in the conventional three-dimensional shooting game using augmented reality (AR) or mixed reality (MR), there is no example in which the target object is a character such as a number or an alphabet itself, and the above problems There is no one that can eliminate points.

Therefore, the present invention solves the problems of the prior art, and can simulate a series of flows of shooting planning / instructions, searching / finding / shooting judgment, launch / impact correction, shooting effect judgment, and education, It is an object of the present invention to provide a processing method of a three-dimensional shooting game effective for brain training, stress elimination and the like, and a program for causing a computer to execute the processing method.

In order to solve the above problems, a processing method of a three-dimensional shooting game according to claim 1 is a processing method of a three-dimensional shooting game executed on a computer, wherein target generation for generating a target object representing a character itself A target moving step for updating the position of the target object, a shooting step for firing a bullet object in accordance with the operation of the player, and a collision determination step for determining a collision between the bullet object and the target object seen including, fly the bullet object is slip through the interior of the target object, characterized in that to be able to hit another of said target object at the back.

In the target generation step, a target object representing characters such as numbers and alphabets is generated. Here, the "characters such as numbers and alphabets themselves" refer to symbols or letters representing numbers, or characters such as alphabets themselves. Therefore, the "target object representing characters such as numbers and alphabets" has the shape of characters such as numbers and alphabets. Note that target objects that represent characters such as numbers and alphabets include not only three-dimensional expressions but also two-dimensional expressions. This is because it is also possible to arrange an object represented two-dimensionally in a three-dimensional space.

Moreover, even if it is a target object to which some kind of expression is added, the size of the added part is relatively smaller than the size of the whole character such as numerals and alphabets, thus impairing the essential effect of the present invention As long as it remains within the range of no size, it substantially corresponds to a target object that expresses "characters such as numbers and alphabets themselves". Therefore, a target object obtained by merely pasting letters such as numbers and alphabets on enemy aircraft and enemy characters does not hit the target object representing "the letters themselves such as numbers and alphabets" in the present invention. However, in the case of a target object in which small limbs, wheels, etc. are added to "characters such as numbers and alphabets themselves" and the same effect as the present invention is achieved, "numbers and alphabets etc." It corresponds to the target object that expresses the character itself.

This allows the player to intuitively and directly recognize the characters such as numbers and alphabets. Moreover, even if it is a small display like portable terminals, such as a smart phone, as shown in below-mentioned FIG. 1 or FIG. 3, many target objects which have required identification information can be displayed.

When advancing a plurality of target objects toward the player in a three-dimensional shooting game, it may happen that the target objects overlap and the target object behind can not be seen. In such a case, in a target object in which characters such as numbers and alphabets are simply pasted on target objects such as enemy aircraft and enemy characters, characters such as numbers and alphabets pasted on the target object in the rear are completely absent. I can not see it. However, in the case of a target object representing characters such as numbers and alphabets as in the present invention, even if a plurality of target objects overlap, the target object behind does not completely hide, and part of the number It is possible to identify search targets and targets by estimating the whole from. For example, as shown on the right side of FIG. 6 described later, a target object simply having a number attached to the tank can not find and identify the number attached to the rear tank, but as shown on the left side of FIG. By making the number itself a target object that is expressed, it is possible to find the number behind and identify that it is four.

Furthermore, in the case of a target object in which characters such as numbers and alphabets are simply pasted on target objects such as enemy aircraft and enemy characters, if two or more target objects overlap, the target object in the rear is hit. First, you have to destroy the target object in front of it and make it disappear. It is because it is not desirable from the viewpoint of the game nature of a shooting game to hit a bullet with a plurality of targets by one shooting operation as described also in Patent Document 1. In this respect, as in the present invention, by performing the collision determination in accordance with the shape of the target object expressing the character itself such as a number or an alphabet, for example, the number 0, 6, 8, or 9 or the letter O It is possible to play such as hitting a missile or a bullet to the target object in the back by passing through the inside of the annular part of the target.

In the target movement step, the position of the target object is updated. Here, "moving" means that the position changes and appears in the three-dimensional space displayed on the display. Hereinafter, expressions such as “firing” and “flying” of a bullet object are also meant to be viewed as such in a three-dimensional space displayed on the display. The movement in the present invention is not limited to forward movement, but includes movement in the lateral direction, movement in the vertical direction, movement while rotating, or a combination of these movements. This makes it possible to identify the characteristics of three-dimensional space, such as a target object appearing small when it is far, hidden in a shield such as a forest, a hill, a city area, or a cloud and seeing only a part of the target object It can be actively used to improve the gameplay.

And, the farther away you hit, the more points you can earn, the more you discover and identify your target as quickly as possible, and the motivation for shooting, and the game becomes more attractive. For example, if the target object appears from a random position in the lateral direction, the player can simulate a search for an enemy. By this, it becomes training that moves eyes quickly to the left and right, and also helps to prevent brain training and dementia.

In the shooting step, a bullet object representing a bullet, a missile or the like is fired in accordance with the operation of the touch panel or the game controller by the player. For bullet objects, a collision determination setting is made on a three-dimensional model created in advance by computer graphics (CG: Computer Graphics). When fired or hit a target, you get a sense of exhilaration by achieving your goal and help relieve stress. Since the shooting with the lead time taken into consideration is also possible from the moving speed of the target object and the time to reach a target such as a missile, it is possible to enjoy a simple yet realistic game.

This effect is obtained because the present invention can arrange a large number of target objects of distinguishable size by making the target object a representation of characters such as numbers and alphabets.

In the collision determination step, a range for determining a collision is set in advance for the target object and the bullet object. This range can be a box, a sphere, a shape matched to the shape of the mesh of the object, or the like. After the collision determination step, transition to a collision response according to whether or not the hit is made.

Next, a method of processing a three-dimensional shooting game according to claim 2 is the method of processing a three-dimensional shooting game according to claim 1 and displays a question that can be solved with characters such as numbers and alphabets such as arithmetics and quizzes. Generating a plurality of target objects including a representation of a character such as a number or an alphabet of the correct answer of the problem in the target generation step; and A point is added when it is determined that the bullet object has hit the target object representing the character itself such as the correct number and the alphabet.

Thus, for example, by simulating the solution to the arithmetic problem as a shooting plan / instruction, a series of flows such as search, detection, shooting judgment, launch / modification correction, shooting effect judgment can be condensed into a simple game and expressed. can do. At this time, if a high score is added so as to be defeated at a distance, the feeling of tension and interest of the search enemy can be enhanced, and the game can be improved. In addition, shooting is most suitable for brain training because it can train the ability of recognition and judgment. Furthermore, the feeling of exhilaration at the time of missile launch and hit is ideal for stress relief.

When the present invention is used for learning of arithmetic, unlike the case of a target object in which a number is simply pasted to a target object such as an enemy aircraft or an enemy character, the number is directly selected. You will be able to understand arithmetic more quickly and accurately. Therefore, the effects of arithmetic learning, brain training, and stress relief can be obtained simultaneously.

In the question display step, the questions that can be answered with letters such as numbers and alphabets are not limited to those that can be answered with a single letter. For example, it is also possible to adopt a format in which a plurality of characters or letters such as alphabets are taken as correct answers, and characters composing the correct answer are taken one by one and answered.

Next, a processing method of a three-dimensional shooting game according to claim 3 is the processing method of a three-dimensional shooting game according to claim 1 or 2, wherein in the collision determination step, it is in a position that looks smaller and smaller. A higher score is added as it is determined that the bullet object hits the target object.

This makes it possible for the player to aim at getting hit earlier and farther, and it is possible to achieve consistency with the actual battle aiming at the attack from a longer distance, if possible out-of-range attack. The game can be further enhanced by enhancing tension and interest. In addition, it concentrates on identification of letters such as numbers and alphabets, and helps to learn shapes of letters such as numbers and alphabets.

Next, a processing method of a three-dimensional shooting game according to claim 4 is the processing method of a three-dimensional shooting game according to any one of claims 1 to 3, wherein in the target moving step, a forest in a game scene, A part of the target object is made to appear out of the shield by not performing a collision determination or a collision response with a shield, such as a hill, a building, a cloud, etc. It is characterized in that the whole can be estimated by the player.

This makes it possible to learn the numbers themselves by storing, identifying, or estimating the shapes of the characters themselves such as numbers and alphabets, as well as the searcher by recalling the whole of the target objects from the part of the target object that has appeared become.

Next, a processing method of a three-dimensional shooting game according to claim 5 is the processing method of a three-dimensional shooting game according to any one of claims 1 to 4, wherein the target object is a number 0, 6, 8 Or, when expressing 9 or alphabet O, the projectile position of the bullet object is the inside of the 0 annular portion of the number 0, 6, 8 or 9 or alphabet O of the bullet object The height of the target object can be set to a height at which it can fly through, and in the collision determination step, the collision determination in accordance with the shape of the mesh of the target object is performed.

This makes it possible not only to discover and identify another target object behind, but also to attack. It is impossible for the conventional method to exhibit the effect of the present invention, and the above-mentioned Patent Document 1 also considers it as a problem to be solved by the present invention.

Next, a processing method of a three-dimensional shooting game according to claim 6 is the processing method of a three-dimensional shooting game according to any one of claims 1 to 5, which is augmented reality (AR: Augmented Reality) or mixed reality. By using (MR: Mixed Reality), it is characterized in that a real object photographed by a camera is used as a background or a shield in a game scene.

This makes it possible to freely use various objects existing in reality as the background or the shield, not the background or the shield previously created by CG. As a result, the degree of difficulty of the game can be freely changed, and the fun of the game is further increased. For example, when playing on a table on which nothing is placed on the battlefield, the degree of difficulty can be lowered since the target object can be found and identified from a distance. On the other hand, when playing on the battlefield on a table on which a large number of objects are placed, it is difficult to find and identify the target object from a distance, which can increase the degree of difficulty. Note that by using three-dimensional map data, any place in the real world where the three-dimensional map data exists can be made the battlefield of the three-dimensional shooting game according to the present invention.

Next, a program according to claim 7 is a program for making a computer execute the processing method of the three-dimensional shooting game according to any one of claims 1 to 6.

Thereby, the processing method of the three-dimensional shooting game according to the present invention can be executed on a computer.

As described above, according to the present invention, first, the player can intuitively and directly recognize characters such as numbers and alphabets. Next, even with a small display such as a portable terminal such as a smartphone, a large number of target objects having necessary identification information can be displayed. Next, it is possible to identify the enemy or target by estimating the whole from a part of the number. Next, it is possible to play missile objects such as missiles and bullets, for example, through the inside of the 0, 6, 8 or 9 numbers or the annular part of the alphabet O and hit the target object behind . Next, since the present invention emphasizes the defensive stage in the shooting game, it becomes training to move the eyes to the left and right quickly, which also helps to prevent brain training and dementia. In addition, it is useful for brain training because it can train the recognition and judgment, where shooting can be expressed by condensing the flow of shooting in a simple game. Furthermore, the exhilaration of missile launch and hit will help relieve stress. Next, since numbers will be directly selected, it will be possible to understand arithmetic more quickly and accurately, and the effects of arithmetic learning, brain training, and stress relief will be obtained simultaneously. In addition, it becomes possible to learn the numbers themselves by storing, identifying or estimating the shapes of the characters themselves such as numbers and alphabets. The present invention is applicable not only to arithmetic problems but also to any problems that can be solved with letters such as numbers and alphabets. Furthermore, by using the augmented reality and the mixed reality, various real worlds can be regarded as battlefields, and the above effects can be achieved, thereby increasing fun and further improving gameplay.

FIG. 7 is an explanatory diagram showing an example in the case of using augmented reality (AR) or mixed reality (MR).

Hereinafter, an example of a three-dimensional shooting game according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Wherever possible, the same parts will be denoted by the same reference symbols, without redundant description. In addition, the content overlapping with the description in the means for solving the problems is omitted as much as possible.

In the present embodiment, the application package of the 3D shooting game program is installed on the smartphone. The hardware configuration of the smartphone is general, and includes an operating system, an application package of a three-dimensional shooting game program, and a memory for storing various data, and sound effects at the time of missile launch and impaction, etc. It has a speaker for reproduction, a menu screen, a game scene, and a touch panel display for displaying an outcome of the game and performing an input operation by the player, and a CPU for controlling these devices. This hardware configuration is merely an example, and may be a tablet type terminal, a game dedicated machine, a head mounted display, a glasses type wearable device such as a notebook type personal computer, a desktop type personal computer other than a smartphone. In addition to the touch panel display, various game controllers and the like can be used for the input operation of the player.

FIG. 1 shows an example of a game scene of a three-dimensional shooting game according to an embodiment of the present invention. A forest consisting of trees 2 spreads in front of the mountain 1, and in the situation where a target object 4 expressing a number itself appears from the forest and advancing toward a player, a bullet object 5 representing a missile has a number It is a game scene flying toward the target object representing 3. The formula at the top of the game scene represents an arithmetic problem, and the correct answer at this time is 3. Incidentally, there is a small small hill 3 on the left side of the game scene forest, and when the invention according to claim 4 is carried out, two target objects 4 appear as will be described later with reference to FIG. I am doing it.

FIG. 2 shows an example of a flowchart of a three-dimensional shooting game program according to an embodiment of the present invention.
At the beginning of the game, a menu screen is displayed to allow selection of types of problems such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. In addition, it was made possible to select a system in which two or more of these were randomly presented. The type of problem is not limited to arithmetic problems. That is, the question may be an alternative answer including a quiz or a more complicated question, or may be an answer in sentences. This is because sentences can be constructed by answering one character at a time in order.

Next, when the type of problem is selected on the menu screen, transition to the game scene is made. Immediately after transition to the game scene, a problem corresponding to the type of the selected problem is displayed at the top of the display display range by the problem generation / display processing (S1). In the arithmetic problem, for example, in the case of addition, as shown in FIG. 1, the simplest questioning method is a method of asking which number is added to 7 to obtain 10. In addition, in the case of subtraction, it is a method of asking which number is obtained by subtracting 10 to 7. In addition, in the case of multiplication, it is a method of asking which number is multiplied by 5 to obtain 45. Further, in the case of division, it is a method of asking which number is obtained by dividing 63 by 9. The problem was to display what was randomly generated, and to be updated automatically when the missile described later hits the target object corresponding to the correct answer.
In addition, although omitted in FIG. 1, a gauge indicating the number of remaining bullets, the number of points, etc. are displayed near the problem.

Also, immediately after transitioning from the menu screen to the game scene, the target generation process (S11) automatically selects any number from 0 to 9 at random, and a target object representing the selected number itself is generated. The robot automatically advances toward the player and disappears when the missile described later hits or when it exceeds the range that can be displayed on the display. The processes after S11 will be described later.

Next, in the target instruction (S2), the player operates the touch panel or the like of the smartphone to select and designate one of the plurality of target objects that corresponds to the correct answer of the problem. Although the timing of the firing can be adjusted after the target instruction, in the present embodiment, the firing is instructed simultaneously with the target instruction.

Next, in the missile generation processing (S3), missiles are generated based on settings of missiles created in advance by three-dimensional CG modeling and collision determination and the like.

Next, in the missile flight processing (S4), the missile generated toward the target object instructed in S2 is caused to fly. The missile's flight follows the physical law. Also, the number of remaining bullets was reduced by one simultaneously with the missile launch.

Next, in the collision determination process (S5), it was determined whether or not a hit was made. The collision determination is preferably set to be a box or a sphere in consideration of the calculation cost, but by performing the collision determination in accordance with the shape of the mesh of the target object, the target object is a number 0, 6, 8, or The missile may be allowed to fly through the inside of the annular portion of the numbers 0, 6, 8 or 9 or the alphabet O when expressing 9 or the alphabet O.

Next, a conditional branch is made depending on whether or not the hit is made (S6), and when the hit is made, the hit missile and the target object are made to disappear with the effect showing the explosion (S7). Then, by comparing the correct answer of the question with the number represented by the target object hit, conditional branching is performed depending on whether or not the correct answer is made (S8). The higher the score, the better the score (S9). Therefore, the faster you find, shoot and hit the target object earlier, the more points will be scored. On the other hand, when it did not answer correctly, it was made to be deducted (S17). Each target object is set with a tag for determining characters such as numerals and alphabets represented by it.

On the other hand, if the missile does not hit at the conditional branch (S6) whether or not it hits, it will disappear as a misfired if the missile collides with an object other than the target object, or the missile can be displayed on the display When it exceeds the range, it is made to disappear as the one outside the range (S15). In this case, points are deducted (S16).

Next, conditional branching is performed depending on whether or not the remaining bullets are eliminated (S10), and when there are still remaining bullets, processing after the problem generation / display processing (S1) is executed again. The game was temporarily ended when there were no remaining shells. Although not shown in the flow chart, the game result is displayed after the game ends, so that the type of problem can be reselected and the game can be resumed.

Finally, the processes from the target generation process (S11) to the target annihilation (S14) will be described.
In this embodiment, immediately after transition from the menu screen to the game scene, a target generation process (S11) automatically generates a target object representing any one of the numbers 0 to 9 itself at predetermined time intervals. I made it. At this time, a target object was automatically generated based on settings such as a three-dimensional model of numbers created in advance by three-dimensional CG modeling and collision determination and the like.

In the present embodiment, the position where the target object is initially arranged is set to be in a random direction as seen from the player and to the other side of the forest as seen from the player, and the position is moved by target movement processing (S12). Continued to move forward from the player towards the player. The condition branch is made depending on whether the target object is within the display range of the display (S13), and if it is within the display range, the target object continues to move, and when it is not within the display range, it disappears (S14). When there are a plurality of target objects in the three-dimensional space, the player can know which one is far. In the present embodiment, the target object is moved on the ground assuming a land battle scene, but it is also possible to move in various places such as space, air, water, water, etc. it can. At this time, various scenes can be assumed such as, for example, appearance from inside of clouds when moving in the air, and appearance from inside of seaweed or moss when moving in the sea.

The upper part of FIG. 3 is an example in the case where a number is simply attached to a target object 6 representing an enemy tank, as in the conventional three-dimensional shooting game. For example, assuming that the horizontal width of FIG. 3 is the horizontal width of the display, and assuming that the pasted number is the smallest distinguishable size, only three horizontal target objects can be placed in the game scene. On the other hand, if it is the target object 4 which expressed the number itself like this invention, as many as 16 can be arrange | positioned like an example shown in the lower stage of FIG.

FIG. 4 shows an example of a state in which a part of the target object appears from the forest in the game scene. A part of the target object is made to appear out of an obstacle, and the player can estimate the whole of the target object from the part of the target object that has appeared. The leftmost target object in FIG. 4 represents the number 6 and the second target object from the left represents the number 9. In the case of an infant, although the distinction between 6 and 9 may be misleading, shooting makes it possible to make a distinction between 6 and 9 instantaneously while repeatedly playing because the correctness is revealed. The third target object from the left can be identified from the top square shape as it is a representation of the number 5. In the case of the fourth target object from the left, it can not be identified whether it is the number 3 or the number 8. However, for the fifth target object from the left, it can be identified as the number 8. In the case of the rightmost target object, it can be identified as representing the number 3. As described above, the present invention is effective for learning the shape of numbers because it is possible to repeat number estimation and correct / incorrect determination without getting bored while enjoying the game.

FIG. 5 shows how a target object 4 representing a numeral itself gradually appears from a small hill 3 which is hollow when the invention according to claim 4 is carried out. In the state at time t in the upper part of FIG. 5, it can not be determined whether the target object is seven or five. That is, the target can not be identified. However, when the target object advances gradually and reaches the state at time t + x in the middle of FIG. 5, the target object on the left represents the number 7 and the target object on the right represents the number 5 Can be determined. That is, target identification is possible. Then, by attacking the target object representing the correct answer of the question being asked immediately, it is possible to hit at a longer shot distance, and a high score is added. Incidentally, if the target object is advanced without being fired, the state shown in the lower part of FIG. 5 is reached, and a complete image of the numbers appears.

This leads to the interest of predicting the appearing numbers and causing the predictions to hit or miss. As described above, in the present invention, it is possible to taste the examination of a series of flows of target discovery, identification, shooting judgment, and shooting. In addition, since it is possible to develop the ability to predict the whole from a part of the number, it is particularly effective for an infant to remember the shape of the number.

FIG. 6 shows an example of a shooting method that can be realized for the first time by a target object representing characters such as numbers and alphabets.
The left side of FIG. 6 shows that another target object behind the target object can be found and identified by making the target object 4 expressing the numbers themselves as in the present invention. On the other hand, as shown on the right side of FIG. 6, it is difficult to find another tank behind the enemy tank if the target object 6 representing the enemy tank is simply stuck with a number. Also, even if it can be found, it is not possible to identify another tank behind it, depending on the position where the numbers are attached. Therefore, it is impossible for the conventional method to achieve the same effect as the present invention unless the enemy tank is made transparent.

Further, as described in claim 5, in the diagram on the left side of FIG. 6, in the collision determination step, the target object has the numeral 0, by performing the collision determination in accordance with the shape of the mesh of the target object. The bullet object can fly through the inside of the annular portion of the number 0, 6, 8 or 9 or the alphabet O when expressing 6, 8 or 9 or the alphabet O It shows that it becomes. Specifically, the missile can be made to fly toward the target object representing the number 4 behind the inside of the target object representing the number 0. This not only makes it possible to discover and identify another target object behind, it also makes it possible to attack. According to the effect of the present invention, even if the enemy tank is made transparent as described above, it is impossible for the conventional method to play. In addition, regarding this point, the above-mentioned Patent Document 1 is considered as a problem to be solved by the invention.

Finally, FIG. 7 is an example using augmented reality (AR) or mixed reality (MR). By displaying the real world photographed by the camera on the display, the background including the shield in the game scene was made. In the case of augmented reality, an image taken of the real world in front of the player is used, but in the case of mixed reality, an image or the like taken of the real world in another place is used. Good.

In this state, the target object in the present invention is made to appear, and the player can shoot at the target object made to appear. At this time, the target object is made to appear from the shielding surface or shielding by incorporating three-dimensional information on the shielding surface or shielding of the real world appearing on the battlefield into the game scene.
The distance to the shield plane or shield in the real world can be obtained by using known techniques such as image recognition, three-dimensional scan, depth sensor measurement, or three-dimensional map data. This allows any place in the real world where indoor or 3D map data is present to be the battlefield in the 3D shooting game according to the present invention.

The correct answer of the arithmetic problem displayed at the top of FIG. Then, a part of the left side of the target object representing the number 7 itself is emerging from the building, and indicates a situation in which the bullet object 5 fired toward the target object is flying. As in the present embodiment, in the case where a real building becomes a shield and the opportunity for shooting is reduced, the degree of difficulty is higher than in the open and on the ground.

Even in the case of using augmented reality or mixed reality, it can be implemented in the same manner as the method and program described above, except that the background or shield in the game scene becomes a real object. Although it is not an essential difference in the present invention whether the background or the shield is created by CG or by live-action, it is possible to freely change the degree of difficulty as described above, or in the real world In terms of playability, it is possible to increase the fun and further enhance the game.

As it is effective for education, brain training, and stress relief, it may lead to the expansion of the use of three-dimensional shooting games in the education industry, health industry, etc.
