Description

The present disclosure relates to a program, a method of providing a game, and a game device.

There is known a music game in which a player performs an input operation on a mark displayed in accordance with the rhythm of music and evaluates the timing. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a control device that provides a music game that includes timing evaluation of a player's input operation with respect to a mark displayed in accordance with the rhythm of music.

In such a music game, an instruction mark (a mark indicating a musical note or a musical instrument) is displayed as the music is played. The instruction mark indicates a predetermined timing for the music, and the closer the user's input timing is to this timing, the higher the evaluation of the game play. For example, in game play, evaluations such as excellent, good, nice, and bad are sequentially made according to the magnitude of these timing deviations.

Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2015-116271

In the music game disclosed in Patent Document 1, the evaluation standard is to match the timing with a predetermined timing. In order to get a high evaluation in such a music game, it is necessary to aim at input at a predetermined timing.

(Embodiment)
FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an example of the configuration of the game device 10 according to the embodiment. The game device 10 provides a music game to a player who operates the game device 10.

The game device 10 is configured as a computer. Specifically, as shown in the figure, the game device 10 includes a CPU (processor) 11, a main memory 12, a user I / F13, a communication I / F14, and an external memory 15. The CPU 11, the main memory 12, the user I / F13, the communication I / F14, and the external memory 15 are electrically connected to each other via the bus 16.

The CPU 11 loads various programs from the external memory 15 into the main memory 12 and executes the instructions included in the loaded programs. The main memory 12 is used to store a program executed by the CPU 11, and is composed of, for example, a DRAM.

The user I / F 13 is, for example, a user interface including an information input device that receives information input by the player and an information output device that outputs information from the CPU 11. The information input device includes, for example, one or more of a direction key, an operation button, an acceleration sensor, a gyro sensor, a pointing device, and the like, and functions as a game controller. The direction keys, operation buttons, and the like may be physically installed buttons or virtually installed buttons (for example, a touch panel). The information output device includes, for example, a display device that displays text, an image, or the like based on the information output by the CPU 11, a speaker device that outputs voice based on the information output by the CPU 11.

The user I / F 13 does not have to be integrated with the game device 10. For example, the user I / F 13 may be a device separate from the game device 10 and may be configured to communicate with the game device 10 by wire or wirelessly. Further, the user I / F 13 may be composed of a plurality of devices, and for example, the information input device and the information output device may be independent devices.

The communication I / F 14 is a communication interface implemented as hardware, firmware, communication software such as a TCP / IP driver or PPP driver, or a combination thereof. The game device 10 is configured to be able to communicate with an external device via the communication I / F14.

The external memory 15 is composed of, for example, a magnetic disk drive, a flash memory, or the like. The external memory 15 stores various programs for providing the game and various data used in the game. The program for providing the game may be stored in the external memory 15 in advance, or is acquired by the game device 10 communicating with the external device via the communication I / F 14, and stored in the external memory 15. May be done.

Here, the function of the game device 10 having the above configuration will be described. FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing an example of the functions of the game device 10.

As shown in the figure, the game device 10 includes a music reproduction unit 21 that reproduces music, an acquisition unit 22 that acquires input information, an evaluation unit 23 that evaluates input information, and a type assignment unit 24 that assigns types. It includes a first presentation unit 25 and a second presentation unit 26 for presenting evaluation results of input information, and a storage unit 27 for storing various information.

These functions are realized by the cooperation of hardware such as the CPU 11, the main memory 12, the user I / F13, and the external memory 15. These functions are, for example, at least a part of each module in which the CPU 11 corresponds to each function of the music reproduction unit 21, the acquisition unit 22, the evaluation unit 23, the type assignment unit 24, the first presentation unit 25, and the second presentation unit 26. It is realized by executing a program including the above and storing various information in the external memory 15.

The storage unit 27 is realized by, for example, an external memory 15. The storage unit 27 includes a music information storage unit 31 that stores predetermined music information, an input information storage unit 32 that stores input information acquired by the acquisition unit 22, and a setting information storage unit 33 that stores setting information. It has a point allocation information storage unit 34 for storing the allocation information, and an evaluation result storage unit 35 for storing the evaluation result by the evaluation unit 23.

The music reproduction unit 21 reproduces a music based on the music information stored in the music information storage unit 31. The music reproduction unit 21 causes the speaker device of the user I / F 13 to output a voice indicating the music.

The music information is composed of sound source information which is a sound source of the music and a plurality of division information in which the entire music is divided into predetermined units. The unit to be divided includes a bar unit containing several sounds and a phrase unit containing a plurality of measures. Bar is a term commonly used in the music industry. A bar is a term that indicates the length of time corresponding to, for example, four beats as one unit, which is a division divided into appropriate lengths so that the score can be read easily. The length of time for one bar is not limited to four beats. In addition, at least two or more phrases are preset in the music indicated by the music information. Further, the unit for classification may be time (seconds, milliseconds, frames (1/60 sec)).

Each phrase consists of two or more measures. The two or more measures constituting the phrase are, for example, four measures, and the length of the phrase is, for example, a multiple of four measures such as four measures, eight measures, and sixteen measures. Attribute information indicating the attributes of the phrase is preset for each phrase.

The attribute information to be set is, for example, information indicating any one of Intro, A melody (Verse), B melody (Bridge), C melody, and Chorus. The type of attribute information to be set may further include information indicating Inter (Solo), Ending (Outro), bumps, and the like. These are additionally set according to the content of the music, and are set based on a classification method generally called a rehearsal mark.

The sound source information of the music, the division information such as measures and phrases, and the attribute information are stored in the music information storage unit 31 as a music information table in association with the information for identifying the music. In addition, the music information storage unit 31 stores a plurality of music information in an identifiable manner based on the information for identifying the music.

The acquisition unit 22 acquires input information indicating information input by the player according to the music played by the music reproduction unit 21. The input information is a rhythm pattern input by the player corresponding to the division information such as a measure of music information. The input information storage unit 32 of the storage unit 27 stores the input information acquired by the acquisition unit 22 and the information for identifying at least one or more measures in the music as an input information table in association with each other.

The evaluation unit 23 evaluates the input information by comparing the input information corresponding to at least one or more measures with other input information stored in the input information storage unit 32 of the storage unit 27. Specifically, the evaluation unit 23 corresponds to the measure by comparing the input information corresponding to one measure with the other input information corresponding to at least one measure having a predetermined relationship with the measure. Evaluate the input information to be input. The predetermined relationship includes three cases, as will be described later.

The evaluation unit 23 evaluates the input information by adding points with reference to the point allocation information table stored in the point allocation information storage unit 34. The point allocation information table is an information table in which information indicating points to be added and information indicating points to be added according to the information indicating the points to be added are associated with each other.

The type assigning unit 24 assigns a type to the input information of the phrase composed of a plurality of measures based on the content of the input information. The type assigning unit 24 compares the rhythm pattern of each measure included in the input information with the rhythm pattern indicated by the preset setting information, and assigns the type of the input information to each measure. The type-giving unit 24 determines the type to be given to the phrase composed of the plurality of measures based on the types given to the plurality of measures. Specifically, in a phrase, the same type is assigned to a predetermined number or more or a predetermined ratio or more of measures, and the most assigned type is assigned to the phrase.

The first presentation unit 25 causes the player to present the evaluation result of the input information by the evaluation unit 23 for each evaluation item. The second presentation unit 26 causes the player to present the evaluation result of the input information by the evaluation unit 23, and present the information for raising the evaluation of the input information. For example, the first presenting unit 25 and the second presenting unit 26 control the user I / F13 to display the evaluation result on the display device or output the voice to the speaker to present the evaluation result. The information for raising the evaluation of the input information is, specifically, any one of analysis information indicating the analysis result of the evaluation result, breakdown information indicating the breakdown of the evaluation result, and point allocation information indicating the score for each item. Information that includes more than one.

Here, the relationship between the setting information, the attribute information, the type, the rhythm pattern, and the like will be described. FIG. 3 shows an example of the setting information table stored in the setting information storage unit 33.

In the setting information table, a predetermined type name, a predetermined pattern name, an ID which is pattern identification information, and a predetermined rhythm pattern are associated and stored. In this example, there are six types, the type names METAL, ABYSS, RAGE, BEAST, SPLASH, and CHAOS. The type is not limited to 6 types, and may be, for example, 2 types or 7 or more types.

Six pattern names of EnterSand, Battery, DimentionX, Sabbath, MadMaiden, and Magnolia are associated with the type name METAL. ID1 to ID6, which are identification information, are assigned to each of these pattern names. Similar to the type name METAL, other type names have multiple pattern names and IDs associated with each other.

For example, five pattern names are associated with the type name ABYSS, and ID7 to ID11, which are identification information, are assigned to each. Five pattern names are associated with the type name RAGE, and ID12 to ID16, which are identification information, are assigned to each. Four pattern names are associated with the type name BEAST, and ID17 to ID20, which are identification information, are assigned to each. Five pattern names are associated with the type name SPLASH, and ID21 to ID25, which are identification information, are assigned to each. Four pattern names are associated with the type name CHAOS, and ID26 to ID29, which are identification information, are assigned to each.

The plurality of rhythm patterns corresponding to the type names METAL, ABYSS, RAGE, and BEAST each indicate a rhythm pattern for one bar with a four-quarter time signature. These rhythm patterns are obtained by dividing one bar into 16 parts and arranging them in chronological order along the direction of the arrow (or the order of the numerical values 1 to 16).

On the other hand, the plurality of rhythm patterns corresponding to the type names SPLASH and CHAOS each indicate a rhythm pattern for one bar with a 6/8 time signature. These rhythm patterns are obtained by dividing one bar into 12 parts and arranging them in chronological order along the direction of the arrow (or the order of the numerical values 1 to 12).

Each of these predetermined rhythm patterns shows a unique rhythm pattern. Therefore, in this example, 29 types of rhythm patterns are set as setting information. These rhythm patterns may be set at the program creation stage or may be set by the player. Therefore, the rhythm pattern of the setting information is not limited to 29 types.

As shown in FIG. 3, black circles and white circles are shown in the rhythm pattern. For example, the black circle is a symbol indicating the timing of sounding the kick drum, and the white circle is a symbol indicating the timing of sounding the snare drum. That is, the rhythm pattern indicates the timing at which the instrument is sounded in one bar.

For example, the rhythm pattern corresponding to ID1 is a rhythm called "Don Can Don Can", and the rhythm pattern corresponding to ID 2 is a rhythm called "Don Can Do Do Can". In the example of FIG. 3, the rhythm pattern indicates only the timing of sounding two types of musical instruments, but the timing of sounding three or more types of musical instruments may be indicated by different symbols.

Hereinafter, the evaluation method by the evaluation unit 23 will be described. The evaluation unit 23 evaluates the input information input by the player from the five viewpoints of the first evaluation, the second evaluation, the third evaluation, the fourth evaluation, and the fifth evaluation. .. In the first evaluation, the input information is evaluated by comparison with the setting information, and in the second evaluation, the third evaluation, and the fourth evaluation, at least one having a predetermined relationship with the measure corresponding to the input information. Evaluate the input information by comparing it with the other input information corresponding to one measure. In the fifth evaluation, the input information in the entire music is evaluated.

First, the first evaluation will be described. In the first evaluation, the evaluation unit 23 compares the input information in one bar with the preset setting information indicating a plurality of rhythm patterns in one bar. Specifically, when it is determined that the input information in one bar to be evaluated matches any rhythm pattern of the setting information indicating a plurality of rhythm patterns in one preset bar, the evaluation unit 23 adds points to the input information in that one measure.

Specifically, the evaluation unit 23 determines whether or not the rhythm pattern indicated by the input information matches any of the rhythm patterns that are the setting information of 29 types (ID1 to 29). The evaluation unit 23 determines that the rhythm pattern indicated by the input information matches the rhythm pattern of the setting information when the similarity is equal to or higher than a predetermined threshold value.

The degree of similarity is determined to be equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold value when the rhythm timing deviation indicated by the two rhythm patterns is within a predetermined allowable range. For example, a predetermined allowable range is set on the condition that the deviation of each rhythm is within a predetermined time or within a minimum unit time. The predetermined time or less is, for example, 0.1 seconds or less. The minimum unit time is, for example, 1/16 bar time or less for IDs 1 to 20 and 1/12 bar time or less for IDs 21 to 29. If the rhythm is the same as or similar to the setting information, it may be determined that the rhythm matches, and if the rhythm is the same as the setting information but the sounded instrument is different, it is determined that the rhythm does not match. May be good.

The point addition evaluation is performed based on the point addition information table stored in the point allocation information storage unit 34. For example, if it matches the rhythm pattern of the type METAL, add 100 points. If it matches the rhythm pattern of the attribute BEAST, add 200 points. If it matches the rhythm pattern of the attribute CHAOS, add 300 points. The points to be added are set according to the difficulty level of each rhythm pattern of the setting information. It should be noted that the same score (for example, 100 points) may be added to any rhythm pattern regardless of the difficulty level.

The second evaluation will be described. In the second evaluation, at least one other measure having a predetermined relationship with one measure to be evaluated is a measure adjacent to one measure to be evaluated. The evaluation unit 23 evaluates the input information by comparing the input information corresponding to one measure with the other input information corresponding to the measures adjacent to the measure. In addition, "a measure adjacent to a measure" means a measure immediately before or immediately after the measure.

For example, when it is determined that the rhythm pattern indicated by the input information corresponding to one measure to be evaluated is a rhythm pattern different from the other input information corresponding to the measures adjacent to the measure to be evaluated, the evaluation unit. 23 is evaluated by adding points. In order to determine that the rhythm patterns are different, it is required to match any of the plurality of rhythm patterns shown in the setting information. That is, it is required that both match the rhythm pattern of different IDs.

In the second evaluation, at least one other measure having a predetermined relationship may be a measure belonging to a phrase different from the measure to be evaluated. In this case, the evaluation unit 23 evaluates the input information by comparing the input information corresponding to one measure to be evaluated with the other input information corresponding to the measures belonging to at least one different phrase. In addition, at least one other measure having a predetermined relationship may be a measure belonging to the same phrase as the measure to be evaluated.

The point addition evaluation is performed based on the point addition information table stored in the point allocation information storage unit 34. For example, if it is determined that the rhythm patterns are different, 1000 points will be added.

The third evaluation will be described. In the third evaluation, at least one other measure having a predetermined relationship with one measure to be evaluated is one measure belonging to another phrase, and the order within the phrase is the evaluation target. It is a measure in the same order as one measure. The evaluation unit 23 compares the input information of one measure to be evaluated with the other input information of one measure corresponding to the phrase in which the same or different attribute information as the phrase corresponding to the input information is set. ..

The evaluation unit 23 repeats such a comparison, and finally performs a point addition evaluation according to the result of the comparison of the entire phrase. It should be noted that the point addition evaluation may be performed for each measure according to the comparison result between each measure instead of the comparison result of the whole phrase.

The evaluation unit 23 has the attribute information set in the phrase to which the input information corresponding to one measure to be evaluated belongs, and the attribute set in the phrase to which the other input information corresponding to the measure to be compared belongs. Evaluate based on different evaluation criteria depending on whether the information is the same or not.

For example, the evaluation unit 23 has the same attribute information (for example,) that is set in the phrase to which the input information to be evaluated belongs and the attribute information set in the phrase to which the other input information to be compared belongs. , "A Melo"), points are evaluated when it is determined that the input information to be evaluated and other input information to be compared are the same or the degree of similarity is high. If the input information to be evaluated and the other input information to be compared belong to a phrase with a different number of measures, the phrase with a large number of measures (for example, a phrase with 8 measures) has the smaller number of measures (for example). The judgment is made depending on whether or not the input information of (4 measures) is repeated.

Further, in the evaluation unit 23, the attribute information set in the phrase to which the input information to be evaluated belongs is different from the attribute information set in the phrase to which the other input information to be compared belongs (for example, "" In the case of "A melody" and "B melody"), additional points are evaluated when it is judged that the input information to be evaluated and other input information to be compared are different or the similarity is low. To do. If the input information to be evaluated and the other input information to be compared belong to a phrase with a different number of measures, the phrase with a large number of measures (for example, a phrase with 8 measures) has the smaller number of measures (for example). The judgment is made depending on whether or not the input information of (4 measures) is repeated. Also, if the input information to be evaluated and the other input information to be compared belong to a phrase with a different number of measures, the phrase with the smaller number of measures (4 measures) has more measures (for example). The determination may be made depending on whether or not it is a part of the input information (phrase of 8 bars). Part of the input information may be consecutive measures (for example, 1st to 4th, 3rd to 6th, etc.) in a phrase having a large number of measures, and may be non-consecutive measures in a phrase having a large number of measures. (For example, 1st / 2nd / 4th / 8th, etc.) may be used.

The evaluation unit 23 may be configured to apply both of the two evaluation criteria to perform point addition evaluation, or apply only one of the two evaluation criteria to perform point addition evaluation. It may be configured as.

The point addition evaluation is performed based on the point addition information table stored in the point allocation information storage unit 34. For example, when the attribute information set in the phrase to which the input information to be evaluated belongs and the attribute information set in the phrase to which other input information to be compared belongs are the same attribute information, the evaluation target When it is determined that the input information to be compared with other input information to be compared is the same, or when the similarity is determined to be equal to or higher than the first threshold value (for example, "90%" or "0.90"). 20000 points are added, and if it is determined that the similarity is less than the first threshold and greater than or equal to the second threshold (for example, "75%" or "0.75"), 2000 points are added and the similarity is the second threshold. If it is determined to be less than or greater than the third threshold (eg, "50%" or "0.50"), 500 points will be added, and the similarity will be less than the third threshold and greater than or equal to the fourth threshold (eg, "25%"). , "0.25", etc.) or more, 100 points will be added. In addition, when the attribute information set in the phrase to which the input information to be evaluated belongs and the attribute information set in the phrase to which other input information to be compared belongs are different attribute information, the evaluation target If it is determined that the input information is different from the other input information to be compared, or if the similarity is determined to be less than or equal to the fourth threshold value (for example, "25%" or "0.25"), 20000 points Is added, and if it is determined that the similarity is greater than the 4th threshold and less than or equal to the 3rd threshold (for example, "50%" or "0.50"), 2000 points are added and the similarity is the 3rd threshold. If it is determined to be larger and less than or equal to the second threshold (eg, "75%" or "0.75"), 500 points will be added, and the similarity will be greater than the second threshold and below the first threshold (eg, "0.75"). If it is judged to be 90% or less (such as "90%" or "0.90"), 100 points will be added. In this way, a plurality of threshold values may be set and a stepwise evaluation of points may be performed according to the degree of similarity, or only one threshold value may be set and points may be added only when the threshold value is exceeded or falls below the threshold value. Point addition evaluation may be performed.

The fourth evaluation will be described. In the fourth evaluation, at least one other measure having a predetermined relationship with one measure to be evaluated is a measure belonging to the same phrase as one measure corresponding to the input information to be evaluated. The evaluation unit 23 compares the rhythm pattern of the input information corresponding to one measure to be evaluated with the rhythm pattern of at least one other input information corresponding to the measure belonging to the same phrase, and thereby the input information. To evaluate. The evaluation unit 23 will evaluate the four measures included in one phrase to be evaluated when the rhythm patterns of the input information corresponding to each measure are classified into, for example, three or more types of rhythm patterns. The input information of one phrase is evaluated by adding points. That is, when it is determined that there are a predetermined number (for example, three) or more ID rhythm patterns in one phrase, points are added and evaluated with respect to the input information of the phrase. The classification of the rhythm pattern regarding the input information corresponding to each measure is executed at the same time as or prior to the fourth evaluation. For example, with respect to the input information corresponding to each measure, the rhythm pattern determined to match when the first evaluation is determined may be classified as the rhythm pattern of the input information.

The point addition evaluation is performed based on the point addition information table stored in the point allocation information storage unit 34. For example, for four measures included in one phrase to be evaluated, if it is determined that the rhythm pattern of the input information corresponding to each measure is classified into, for example, three or more types of rhythm patterns, 10000 points will be given. If points are added and it is determined that the rhythm patterns are classified into two types, 1000 points will be added. If it is determined that all the rhythm patterns corresponding to the measures included in one phrase to be evaluated are classified into different rhythm patterns, the evaluation score is lowered (for example, "100 points"). You may.

The fifth evaluation will be described. In the fifth evaluation, the input information in the entire music is evaluated. First, the type assigning unit 24 assigns a type to each phrase to which the input information belongs. The evaluation unit 23 acquires information indicating the type given to at least one or more phrases to which the input information corresponding to the music belongs, and evaluates the input information based on the information indicating the acquired type. Specifically, the larger the number of types in the acquired type information, the higher the evaluation. For example, the evaluation unit 23 performs point addition evaluation when the number of types is two or more.

The point addition evaluation is performed based on the point addition information table stored in the point allocation information storage unit 34. For example, if the number of types of types is 4, 2000000 points are added, and if the number of types of types is 5, 3000000 points are added. That is, the point addition evaluation is set so that, for example, the point addition increases as the number of types of types increases.

The evaluation method by the evaluation unit 23 has been described above. Therefore, the evaluation results showing the results of evaluation by such an evaluation method will be described below with specific examples.

FIG. 4 shows the first example of the evaluation result. In FIG. 4, the information in the first and second columns from the left corresponds to the music information selected by the player. The information in the first column from the left indicates the bar number of the music, and is arranged in the order of the number. The information in the second column from the left is a phrase composed of 4 bars or 8 bars, and attribute information such as an intro and a bump is added. The phrase and attribute information differ depending on the selected music information.

The information in the third and fourth columns from the left corresponds to the input information input by the player. The information in the third column from the left indicates an input ID corresponding to the rhythm pattern of the input information input by the player. The input ID is the ID of the rhythm pattern of the setting information determined to match the rhythm pattern indicated by the input information for each measure. In this example, it is determined that all of the input information matches the rhythm pattern of ID1 of the setting information.

The information in the fourth column from the left shows the result of the type determination. The type determination is determined by the type assigning unit 24, and indicates the type assigned to the phrase in the input information. When the rhythm patterns of a predetermined number or more and / or a predetermined ratio or more of measures are the same type of rhythm pattern in one phrase, the type corresponding to the rhythm pattern is given as the phrase type. In the example shown in FIG. 4, the predetermined number is set to 3 and the predetermined ratio is set to 50% for the phrase consisting of 4 bars. For a phrase consisting of 8 bars, the predetermined number is set to 5, and the predetermined ratio is set to 50%. As shown in FIG. 3, ID1 is an ID of a rhythm pattern associated with the type name METAL. In the example shown in FIG. 4, since three or more measures are recognized as ID1 in all the phrases, the METAL type is assigned to all the phrases.

The information in the 5th to 9th columns from the left shows the evaluation results. The information in the fifth column from the left shows the first evaluation result. In the example shown in FIG. 4, since it is determined that the rhythm pattern of ID1 is input in all the measures, 100 points are added and evaluated for all the measures.

The information in the sixth column from the left shows the second evaluation result. In the example shown in FIG. 4, it is determined that the rhythm pattern of ID1 is input in all the measures. Therefore, regardless of the input information of any measure, the input information of the measures adjacent to each measure has the same rhythm pattern. Therefore, the point addition evaluation is 0 point in all measures.

The information in the seventh column from the left shows the third evaluation result. In the example shown in FIG. 4, the attribute information C melody common to the phrases corresponding to the measures 25 to 28 and the phrases corresponding to the measures 29 to 32 is set. Therefore, the input information (for example, the phrase corresponding to the measure numbers 25 to 28) and the other input information to be compared (for example, the phrase corresponding to the measure numbers 29 to 32) are the same attribute information. In these phrases with the same attribute, the rhythm pattern of ID1 is input in all the measures, and the same rhythm pattern is input. Therefore, 20000 points are added. Note that other phrases do not have the same attributes and are not evaluated. Therefore, the evaluation result is blank in other phrases.

The information in the eighth column from the left shows the fourth evaluation result. In the example shown in FIG. 4, only one type of input information (rhythm pattern of ID1) is input in all the phrases. Therefore, the point addition evaluation is 0 point for all phrases.

The information in the ninth column from the left shows the fifth evaluation result. In the example shown in FIG. 4, since the type METAL is assigned to all the phrases, the number of types assigned to the seven phrases included in the music is one. Therefore, the point addition evaluation is 0 point in the input information of the entire music.

The overall score shown at the bottom of FIG. 4 shows the total score of the additional evaluations based on the evaluation results of the first evaluation to the fifth evaluation. In this example, the overall score is 23200 points.

FIG. 5 shows a second example of the evaluation result. In the example shown in FIG. 5, the evaluation result when input information different from that of the first example is input to the same music information as that of the first example shown in FIG. 4 will be described.

First, referring to the third column from the left, the input ID is blank in the measures 6 to 8. When the input ID is blank, it means that the rhythm pattern indicated by the input information does not match any of the 29 types of rhythm patterns of the setting information. Therefore, in measures 6 to 8, the first evaluation is 0 point. On the other hand, in the bar numbers other than these, since the input ID is not blank, the point addition evaluation is 100 points or 200 points, respectively. The measures whose input IDs are ID17 and ID18 are not 100 points but 200 points. This is because the rhythm patterns of ID17 and ID18 have a high degree of difficulty.

In the second evaluation result, when the input information of the input information to be evaluated and the input information of the measure immediately before the measure corresponding to the input information to be compared have different input IDs, the input information of the input information to be compared The point addition evaluation is 1000 points. For example, in the input information of the measure number 2 to be evaluated, the input ID is ID2, whereas in the input information of the measure number 1 to be compared, the input ID is ID1. Therefore, the input information of measure number 2 is 1000 points. On the other hand, the input information of the measure number 1 to be evaluated does not have the input information of the measure immediately before the comparison target, so the point addition evaluation is 0 point. In the input information of the measure number 9 to be evaluated, the input ID is ID12, whereas in the input information of the measure number 8 to be compared, the input ID is blank, so the point addition evaluation is 0 point. In the input information of the measure number 26, the input ID is the ID 17, whereas in the input information of the measure number 25 to be compared, it is recognized that the input ID is the same as the ID 17. Therefore, the point addition evaluation of the input information of the measure number 26 is 0 point.

In the example shown in FIG. 5, in the second evaluation, the input information of the immediately preceding bar is the comparison target, but the input information of the immediately following bar may be the comparison target.

In the third evaluation result, since the phrase corresponding to the measures 25 to 28 and the phrase corresponding to the measures 29 to 32 have a common attribute information C melody, they are evaluated. In this example, only phrases having common attribute information are evaluated, but as described above, phrases having different attribute information may be evaluated. Since the input ID of measure number 25, which is the first measure of the previous phrase, is 17, and the input ID of measure number 29, which is the first measure of the subsequent phrase, is 17, the first measure of each phrase. The rhythm pattern of is the same. Since the input ID of measure number 26, which is the second measure of the previous phrase, is 17, and the input ID of measure number 30, which is the second measure of the later phrase, is 18, the second measure of each phrase is the second measure. Rhythm patterns are not the same. Since the input ID of measure number 27, which is the third measure of the previous phrase, is 18, and the input ID of measure number 31, which is the third measure of the later phrase, is 17, the third measure of each phrase is the third measure. Rhythm patterns are not the same. Since the input ID of measure number 28, which is the fourth measure of the previous phrase, is 18, and the input ID of measure number 32, which is the fourth measure of the later phrase, is 18, the fourth measure of each phrase. The rhythm pattern of is the same. As a result of comparing the two phrases in this way, since the rhythm patterns are not the same in all the measures, the point addition evaluation is 0 point.

In the fourth evaluation result, all phrases are evaluated. The first phrase "intro" has two types of input IDs, the second phrase "bump" has one type of input ID, and the third phrase "A melody" has two types of input IDs. Yes, the fourth phrase "B melody" has three types of input IDs, the fifth phrase "sabi" has two types of input IDs, and the sixth phrase "C melody" has input IDs. There are two types, and the seventh phrase "C melody" has two types of input IDs. The only phrase containing three or more types of input IDs is the phrase "B melody" corresponding to measure numbers 13 to 16. Therefore, the point addition evaluation is 10000 points only for the phrases "B melody" corresponding to the bar numbers 13 to 16, and the point addition evaluation is 0 points for the other phrases.

In the example shown in FIG. 5, the types assigned to the phrases are METAL, RAGE, ABYSS, and BEAST. In this case, the number of types assigned to the seven phrases included in the music is four. Therefore, in the fifth evaluation result, the point addition evaluation is 2000000 points in the input information of the entire music. In the phrases corresponding to measure numbers 5 to 8, since the recognition IDs of the same type are less than a predetermined number, the types are not assigned in the type determination, and the types are blank.

The total score shown at the bottom of FIG. 5 shows the total score of the added points based on the evaluation results of the first evaluation to the fifth evaluation. In this example, the overall score is 2036700 points. In this example, since the input information combines the rhythm patterns of many recognition IDs, the overall score is higher than that in the example of FIG.

FIG. 6 shows a third example of the evaluation result. In the example shown in FIG. 6, evaluation when input information different from that of the first example and the second example is input to the same music information as in the first example and the second example shown in FIG. The results will be described.

First, referring to the third column from the left, input IDs are assigned to the input information of all measures. Therefore, each point addition evaluation is 100poin, 200point, or 300point. Measures with input IDs ID22 to ID24 are evaluated by adding 300 points because of the high degree of difficulty.

In the second evaluation result, when the input information to be evaluated and the input information of the measure immediately before the measure corresponding to the input information to be compared have different input IDs, the point addition evaluation of the measure of the input information is performed. It is 1000 points.

In the third evaluation result, since the phrase corresponding to the measures 25 to 28 and the phrase corresponding to the measures 29 to 32 have a common attribute information C melody, they are evaluated. In this example, only phrases having common attribute information are evaluated, but as described above, phrases having different attribute information may be evaluated. Since the input ID of measure number 25, which is the first measure of the previous phrase, is 17, and the input ID of measure number 29, which is the first measure of the subsequent phrase, is 17, the first measure of each phrase. The rhythm pattern of is the same. Since the input ID of bar number 26, which is the second bar of the previous phrase, is 17, and the input ID of bar number 30, which is the second bar of the later phrase, is 17, the second bar of each phrase. The rhythm pattern of is the same. Since the input ID of measure number 27, which is the third measure of the previous phrase, is 18, and the input ID of measure number 31, which is the third measure of the later phrase, is 18, the third measure of each phrase. The rhythm pattern of is the same. Since the input ID of measure number 28, which is the fourth measure of the previous phrase, is 18, and the input ID of measure number 32, which is the fourth measure of the later phrase, is 18, the fourth measure of each phrase. The rhythm pattern of is the same. As a result of comparing the two phrases in this way, since the rhythm pattern is the same in all the measures, the point addition evaluation is 20000 points.

In the fourth evaluation result, all phrases are evaluated. The first phrase "intro" has two types of input IDs, the second phrase "bump" has two types of input IDs, and the third phrase "A melody" has two types of input IDs. Yes, the fourth phrase "B melody" has three types of input IDs, the fifth phrase "sabi" has three types of input IDs, and the sixth phrase "C melody" has three types of input IDs. There are two types, and the seventh phrase "C melody" has two types of input IDs. Therefore, the point addition evaluation of the phrase "B melody" corresponding to the measure numbers 13 to 16 and the phrase "chorus" corresponding to the measure numbers 17 to 24 is 10000 points, and the point addition evaluation is 0 points for the other phrases.

In the example shown in FIG. 6, the types assigned to the phrases are METAL, ABYSS, RAGE, CHAOS, and BEAST. Therefore, the number of types assigned to the seven phrases included in the music is five. Therefore, in the fifth evaluation result, the point addition evaluation is 3000000 points in the input information of the entire music.

The overall score shown at the bottom of FIG. 6 shows the total score of the additional evaluations based on the evaluation results of the first evaluation to the fifth evaluation. In this example, the overall score is 3069800 points.
In this example, since many types of input information are given, the overall score is higher than that in the examples of FIGS. 4 and 5.

The specific example of the evaluation result by the evaluation unit 23 has been described above. Hereinafter, the screen displayed by the user I / F 13 when the player executes the game using the game device 10 will be described.

FIG. 7 shows an example of the main screen. On this screen, the player can select music information and confirm the setting information.

For example, in the display area 41, "Moonlight Jack!" Is displayed as the title of the music. By selecting and operating the display area 41, the player can select desired music information from a plurality of music including "Moonlight Jack!".

In the display area 42, the attribute information of the phrases constituting the music information is arranged in chronological order, and the progress of reproduction of the music in the phrases constituting the music information is displayed. In the example shown in FIG. 7, since the reproduction has not been executed yet, the indicator is arranged at the left end position of the intro.

In the display area 43, a plurality of type tabs corresponding to the setting information are displayed. When the player selects one of these type tabs, the rhythm pattern corresponding to that type is displayed below it. In this example, since the BEAST type tab is selected, four rhythm patterns corresponding to the BEAST type are displayed. The four rhythm patterns are Mongolia, Toxic18, Tallica and Bloodrums. The “uncreated” rhythm pattern shown by the dotted line is a rhythm pattern that can be arbitrarily set by the player.

In this way, the player can select the type tab of the display area 43 and check what kind of rhythm pattern is set as the setting information for each type. In addition, by selecting the rhythm pattern displayed below the type tab, the player can output a voice indicating the selected rhythm pattern or practice the selected rhythm pattern.

FIG. 8 shows an example of a music reproduction screen. This screen is a screen showing the situation where the music is being played based on the music information of "Moonlight Jack!". While this screen is displayed, the game device 10 receives the input information of the player according to the music to be played.

As indicated by the indicator in the display area 42, in the example shown in FIG. 8, the progress of the reproduction of the music progresses to the phrase of the B melody. The display area 44 shown by the dotted line shows the background image. The background image is, for example, an image that directs a live situation. The display area 45a, the display area 45b, the display area 45c, the display area 45d, and the display area 45e are images showing musical instruments, respectively. For example, by illuminating an image showing a musical instrument played by the player, the player can confirm which musical instrument is played. In these display areas, an image showing the correspondence between the operation and the musical instrument may be displayed instead of illuminating the sounded musical instrument. The correspondence between the operation and the musical instrument is displayed in the display area by the player operating the display area in which the musical instrument is displayed in the displayed image (for example, a contact operation or a selection operation). It may be configured to determine that the instrument being played has been operated.

FIG. 9 shows an example of an information presentation screen for improving the evaluation of the input information. The display area 46 is an example of the first presentation unit 25, and the evaluation result is displayed for each evaluation item. Specifically, the first to fifth individual evaluation results and the total score obtained by summing them are displayed.

The display area 47 and the display area 48 are examples of the second presentation unit 26, and display information for improving the evaluation of the input information. The information for raising the evaluation of the input information is the information generated based on the evaluation result of this time. Specifically, in the display area 47, the viewpoints of each evaluation of the first to fifth individual evaluation results and the degree of achievement of the highest evaluation are displayed. That is, among the evaluation items displayed as the evaluation results, the evaluation items having a large difference from the highest evaluation are presented. Input information with a relatively high evaluation is presented for the evaluation items displayed as the evaluation results. In the display area 48, an overall comment is displayed as advice for raising the evaluation. By displaying such a screen, the game device 10 can make the player understand what to do in order to raise the evaluation.

The information presentation screen is not limited to the example shown in FIG. For example, the information presentation screen may present information indicating a difference from the past evaluation result. In this case, the information presentation screen may present for each evaluation item whether or not the current evaluation result is better than the previous evaluation result. Further, the information presentation screen may display each of the plurality of input information in time series, and present the evaluations for them in the time series log data format.

Hereinafter, an example of the control process executed by the game device 10 will be described with reference to FIG. This process indicates a process of accepting the selection of a song from the player and executing the process until the game of the song ends. In this example, it is assumed that there is no interruption by the player.

First, the music reproduction unit 21 of the game device 10 accepts the selection of music by the player via the user I / F13 (step S101). The music reproduction unit 21 acquires music information corresponding to the selection of the music by the received player from the music information storage unit 31 (step S102).

After receiving the instruction to start the game by the player, the music reproduction unit 21 executes the signal before the start (step S103). The signal is, for example, a countdown of the time until the music is played. The music reproduction unit 21 starts playing the music at the timing when the countdown ends (step S104).

While the music reproduction unit 21 is playing the music, the acquisition unit 22 acquires the input information input by the player in accordance with the music (step S105). Further, the acquisition unit 22 stores the acquired input information in the input information storage unit 32 in association with the measure number (step S106). The acquisition unit 22 determines whether or not the playback time of the music has elapsed (step S107). When it is determined that the reproduction time of the music has not elapsed (step S107; N), the acquisition unit 22 returns to step S105 again and continues the processing of steps S105 and S106.

On the other hand, the acquisition unit 22 determines that the reproduction time of the music has elapsed (step S107; Y), and ends the reproduction of the music (step S108).

Here, the evaluation unit 23 and the type assignment unit 24 execute the evaluation process of the acquired input information (step S109). The details of this evaluation process will be described later.

The first presentation unit 25 presents the evaluation result (step S110). In addition, the second presentation unit 26 presents information for improving the evaluation result of the input information (step S111). These pieces of information may be displayed at the same time, for example, as shown in FIG.

Hereinafter, an example of the evaluation processing of the input information executed by the evaluation unit 23 and the type assignment unit 24 will be described with reference to FIG. This process corresponds to step S109 in FIG.

First, the evaluation unit 23 acquires the input information of the Nth measure acquired by the acquisition unit 22 (step S201). N is a natural number whose initial value is set to 1 and is incremented each time it is looped. In this example, the first evaluation and the second evaluation are executed in the order of measure numbers from the first measure (that is, measure number 1) to the last measure, but the evaluation process is limited to such an order. Absent.

The evaluation unit 23 compares the acquired input information of the Nth bar with the setting information (step S202). Specifically, the evaluation unit 23 determines whether or not the rhythm pattern indicated by the input information of the Nth bar matches any of the plurality of rhythm patterns indicated by the setting information. As a result, the evaluation unit 23 identifies the input ID and performs the first evaluation (step S203). Points will be evaluated for measures for which the ID can be identified.

The evaluation unit 23 compares the acquired input information of the Nth bar with the input information of the adjacent bar (N-1 bar or N + 1 bar) (step S204). As a result, the evaluation unit 23 performs the second evaluation (step S205). Point addition evaluation is performed when the input information of the Nth bar and the input information of the adjacent bar (N-1 bar or N + 1 bar) show different rhythm patterns.

Here, the evaluation unit 23 determines whether or not the input information of all the measures has been evaluated (step S206). When the evaluation unit 23 determines that the input information of all the measures has not been evaluated (step S206; N), the evaluation unit 23 increments N, returns to step S201, and performs the processes of steps S201 to S205 again. When the evaluation unit 23 determines that the input information of all the measures is evaluated (step S206; Y), the evaluation unit 23 proceeds to the next step S207. In the input information acquired by the acquisition unit 22, the evaluation unit 23 compares the input information between phrases of the same attribute or between phrases of different attributes (step S207. As a result, the evaluation unit 23 performs a third evaluation. At this time, if the input information is common between phrases of the same attribute, a point addition evaluation is performed, and if the input information is different between phrases of different attributes, a point addition evaluation is performed.

The evaluation unit 23 detects phrases having a predetermined number or more types of input IDs in the input information acquired by the acquisition unit 22 (step S209). As a result, the evaluation unit 23 performs the fourth evaluation (step S210). At this time, points are evaluated for phrases having a predetermined number or more of types of input IDs.

The type assigning unit 24 assigns a type to each phrase of the input information acquired by the acquisition unit 22 (step S211). Specifically, the type assigning unit 24 assigns a type to the measure based on a comparison between the rhythm pattern of one measure indicated by the input information and the rhythm pattern indicated by the setting information. Further, the type assigning unit 24 determines and assigns the type of the phrase based on the types assigned to the plurality of measures included in the phrase.

The evaluation unit 23 counts the number of types assigned to the entire music (step S212). As a result, the evaluation unit 23 performs the fifth evaluation (step S213). If the number of types given in the entire song is two or more, points are evaluated according to the number.

According to the game device 10 according to the present embodiment, input information indicating player input according to the music to be played is acquired, and in the acquired input information, input information corresponding to at least one or more measures is input. The input information indicating the player's input is evaluated by comparing with other stored input information. In this case, not only adjusting to a predetermined timing is the evaluation standard, but also the comparison result with other input information of the player is also the evaluation standard. Therefore, according to the game device 10, it is possible to provide an evaluation method capable of allowing a player to play freely and performing a flexible evaluation according to the performance.

Further, in the first evaluation, points are added and evaluated by matching any of the plurality of rhythm patterns indicated by the setting information. Therefore, free performance that does not impair regularity is evaluated in bar units.

In the second evaluation, points are added based on the fact that the rhythm pattern is different from the rhythm pattern of the adjacent measures. Therefore, the player can be made aware of the input of various rhythm patterns. In the third evaluation, points are evaluated for the identity or difference of the input information between phrases. Therefore, it is possible to make the player aware of the reproducibility of phrases with the same attribute and different performances of phrases with different attributes.

In the fourth evaluation, points are added based on the large number of types of input IDs in one phrase. Therefore, the player can be made aware of the input of various rhythm patterns in one phrase. In the fifth evaluation, the larger the number of types of attributes given to the phrase of the input information in the entire music, the more points are evaluated. Therefore, the player can be made aware of the overall variation in which the attributes are different for each phrase of the input information.

In this way, the second to fifth evaluations can prompt the player to input various rhythm patterns. Further, by combining these evaluations with the first evaluation, it is possible to flexibly evaluate the freely played input information while ensuring the regularity of the rhythm.

The description of the embodiment is completed above, but the above embodiment is only an example. Therefore, the specific configuration of the game device 10, the content of the control process, and the like are not limited to those described in the above embodiment. Hereinafter, a modified example of the above embodiment will be described.

(Modification example)
In the above embodiment, the processing flow has been described as an example. However, the processing flow is not limited to that described in the above embodiment. The order and contents of processing can be changed as appropriate.

For example, in the evaluation process of the input information shown in FIG. 11, point addition evaluation is performed in the order from the first evaluation to the fifth evaluation. However, these orders may be changed or either may be omitted.

Further, in FIGS. 10 and 11, in order to simplify the flow, the evaluation process of the input information is executed after the end of the music. However. During the reproduction of the music, the evaluation unit 23 may perform the evaluation at a predetermined timing such as for each input of input information, for each bar, and for each phrase. In this case, the first presentation unit 25 of the game device 10 may display or output the score to be added in real time according to the result of the evaluation at a predetermined timing. As a result, it is possible to notify the player of what kind of point addition evaluation is performed by which input information.

Further, in the above embodiment, the evaluation unit 23 evaluates only the input information for one music information. However, the evaluation unit 23 may evaluate the input information according to the comparison with the input information evaluated in the past.

For example, the storage unit 27 further stores the acquisition time of the input information. The acquisition time is information indicating the time when the game was played. In this case, the measures having a predetermined relationship are the same measures as the measures corresponding to the input information at different acquisition times. The evaluation unit 23 compares the input information corresponding to one measure with the other input information corresponding to the same measure as the measure corresponding to at least one acquisition time and the input information, and thereby obtains the input information. evaluate.

For example, the evaluation unit 23 may evaluate the input information by comparing it with the input information at any time in the past. The evaluation unit 23 may evaluate the input information by comparing it with the input information having the highest evaluation in the past. The evaluation unit 23 may evaluate the input information by comparing it with the pattern of the input information that has been input most in the past.

In the above embodiment, only the rhythm pattern that the user can confirm on the main screen is used as the setting information as the evaluation standard. However, a rhythm pattern that the user cannot confirm on the main screen may be used as an evaluation criterion as a back score. For example, points may be evaluated when predetermined input information is input at a predetermined timing in the music information. The predetermined input information at a predetermined timing is the so-called "decision" input information in the music. For example, if a cymbal is played in the first beat of each measure, points may be added and evaluated as a bonus. This makes it possible to add depth to the game.

In the above embodiment, the input information is a rhythm pattern indicating the timing of sounding two types of musical instruments. However, the input information may be more diverse. For example, the information input device of the user I / F13 may be provided with operation buttons corresponding to three or more types of musical instruments, and input information indicating the timing of sounding the three or more types of musical instruments may be input.

Further, the input method of the input information can be transformed into various methods. For example, the information input device of the user I / F13 may be not an operation button but two game controllers held by the player in each of both hands, and the acceleration sensor or the Jiro sensor detects the movement of both hands. It may be acquired as input information. For example, the movement of the right hand may correspond to the operation of sounding the kick drum, the movement of the left hand may correspond to the operation of sounding the snare drum, and the movement of both hands may correspond to the operation of sounding the cymbal. In this case, it may be acquired as information indicating the strength of sounding the musical instrument according to the detected acceleration or angular velocity, or may be evaluated according to the strength.

The information input device of the user I / F 13 may be configured to acquire input information according to the movement of the player's foot instead of the player's hand. For example, the information input device of the user I / F 13 may acquire the input information by stepping on the pressure sensitive portion of the mat information.

The information input device of the user I / F13 may display a plurality of virtual input interfaces arranged on the touch panel type display device and acquire input information by detecting the contact of the player with them.

Further, the game device 10 according to the present disclosure may realize its function by, for example, a computer executing a program, regardless of the above device. The program for realizing the function of the game device 10 is a computer reading of a USB (Universal Serial Bus) memory, a CD-ROM (Compact Disc-Read Only Memory), a DVD (Digital Versatile Disc), an HDD (Hard Disc Drive), etc. It may be stored on a possible recording medium or downloaded to a computer via a network.

Although the preferred embodiments of the present disclosure have been described above, the present disclosure is not limited to such specific embodiments, and the present disclosure includes the inventions described in the claims and the equivalent scope thereof. Is done. Further, the configurations of the devices described in the above-described embodiments and modifications can be appropriately combined as long as there is no technical contradiction.
