In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, the game processing section 41a can execute the first information processing S1 and the second information processing S2 based on at least the information processing mode.

Each of the first information processing S1 and the second information processing S2 is a step in which information processing relating to the game to be executed on the player terminal 30 is executed according to preset conditions.

In this first information processing S1, for example, various processes such as drawing an object at a preset drawing speed, drawing an object with a preset resolution and brightness, and moving an object at a preset motion speed are performed. Information processing is performed. In the first mode in which the first information processing S1 is executed, the output is performed from the terminal device with preset time (length), image quality, sound quality, volume, vibration, and the like. In the first mode for executing the first information processing S1, the second information processing S2
The user's terminal device outputs (screen display, voice output, vibration output, etc.) a gorgeous (flashy) in-game effect, etc., compared to the second mode in which .

In the present embodiment, the second information processing S2 is a process that consumes less power than the first information processing S1. ,
In this step, processing related to game elements generated and output by the player terminal 30 is executed so as to reduce or reduce vibrations to save power. In the second mode in which the second information processing S2 is executed, compared to the first mode in which the first information processing S1 is executed, simple (unobtrusive) in-game effects are output from the user's terminal device (screen display, voice output, vibration output, etc.). In the second mode, information processing such as low image quality, low sound quality, low sound volume, and low vibration is performed for a shorter time than in the first mode. The second information processing S2 is not limited to the process of generating images and sounds to be output from the player terminal 30 in real time. , information processing that suppresses power consumption by outputting voice or the like.

Any processing may be performed in the second information processing S2 as long as it is information processing that saves more power than the first information processing S1. Shorten the time, draw objects with lower resolution and brightness (for example, darken the screen display of the game), roughen the movement of objects, reduce various audio output such as BGM when an event occurs (or It is assumed that information processing such as muting), reducing the magnitude of vibration, duration or number of times, etc. is executed. It should be noted that selection of the information processing mode is not limited to two stages, and there may be options of three stages or more. In other words, the second
There are power consumption modes selectable by the user, such as a third information process in which power consumption is further suppressed than in the information processing S2 and a fourth information process in which power consumption is further suppressed than in the third information process. There may be three or more options. In that case, in order from the mode with the largest power consumption,
It may be "large, medium, small", or may be "production mode 1, production mode 2, production mode 3, production mode 4...".

The selection accepting unit 41b shown in FIG. 3 has a first mode in which the preset first information processing S1 is performed, and a second mode in which the second information processing S2 in which power consumption is suppressed for the first information processing. mode, and a selection of an information processing mode during charging, which is executed while the terminal device is connected to the power supply and the storage battery is being charged, is accepted. The selection reception unit 41b of the present embodiment selects the game processing unit 41 based on the operation of the player 2 via the player terminal 30.
It accepts selection of either one of the first mode for performing the first information processing S1 and the second mode for performing the second information processing S2 executed by a.

In the present embodiment, the selection reception unit 41b executes the first information processing S1 when the player terminal 30 is connected to the power source, or executes the second information processing when the player terminal 30 is connected to the power source. Execution of process S2 can be accepted.

Note that the selection reception unit 41b selects a non-charging information processing mode that is executed while the terminal device is not connected to the power source and the storage battery is not being charged, from among the plurality of information processing modes.
It may be accepted in the same manner as the information processing mode during charging.

The execution mode determining unit 41c can determine which one of the plurality of information processing modes is to be executed based on the information received by the selection receiving unit 41b. For example, when the user has previously selected the first mode as the information processing mode during charging (for example, automatic power saving OFF during charging in FIG. 6), the execution mode determination unit 41c selects A first mode is selected for executing the first information processing S1 while the storage battery is being charged. On the other hand, when the user has previously selected the second mode as the information processing mode during charging (automatic power saving ON during charging in FIG. 6), the execution mode determination unit 41c determines whether the terminal device is connected to the power source. A second mode is selected in which the second information processing S2 is executed while the storage battery is being charged.

Note that the execution mode determination unit 41c can also determine the information processing mode during non-charging (during non-power supply connection). For example, when the user selects an information processing mode during non-charging in advance and the selection reception unit 41b receives it (for example, automatic power saving ON or OFF during non-charging in FIG. 7).
), and is determined to be either the first mode or the second mode based on the selection. Further, if the user has not previously selected the non-charging information processing mode, the preset information processing mode may be determined. As described above, the execution mode determining unit 41c can determine the information processing mode based on information about whether the terminal device is being charged (not being charged) and information received by the selection receiving unit 41b. Information processing is executed in the determined information processing mode.

The execution mode determination unit 41c may further determine the information processing mode based on other information such as the remaining battery level. For example, the information processing mode may be determined based on the information received by the selection receiving unit 41b only when the remaining battery level is equal to or less than a predetermined value (20%, etc.). In that case, if the remaining battery level exceeds a predetermined value (20%, etc.), the selection reception unit 4
A preset information processing mode (for example, the first mode or the second mode) is determined regardless of the information received in step 1b.

For example, the execution mode determination unit 41c determines the information processing mode based on the information received by the selection reception unit 41b only when the remaining battery level is equal to or greater than a predetermined value (30%, etc.). good too. In that case, if the remaining battery level is less than a predetermined value (such as 30%), a preset information processing mode (for example, the second
mode or first mode). In this way, by referring to the remaining battery level, for example, when the remaining battery level is low, the power saving mode can be set. You can make it so that

Also, in this case, the predetermined value of the remaining battery level may be a value that is set in advance and cannot be changed by the user, or may be a value that can be set and changed based on the user's input.

The notification generation unit 41d generates a notification regarding the information processing mode to the user using the terminal device based on preset conditions. The preset condition is determined by the execution mode determination unit 41.
The information processing mode can be determined by c, the information processing mode can be changed, the charging of the terminal device can be started, charging can be canceled (the power supply connection to the terminal device can be canceled), etc., but there is no particular limitation. The information processing mode notification may be, for example, a notification indicating the start or end of an information processing mode (for example, a power saving mode, a non-power saving mode, etc.), or a notification indicating a change in the information processing mode. good. In addition, the notification generation unit 41d may generate a notification to the user when the remaining charge amount of the storage battery reaches a preset battery remaining amount.

6, 7, and 8 are diagrams showing examples of game screen interfaces provided by the information processing system 10. FIG. As shown, the selection reception unit 41b receives selections through slide bars B1, B2, B3, B4, B5, and B6 and numerical input units C1, C2, and C3 displayed on the game setting screen interface. is implemented in

In the present embodiment, an information processing mode during charging and an information processing mode during non-charging can be selected. If the "automatic power saving during charging" is "ON", the selection to execute the second information processing S2 (second mode) during charging is accepted, and the "automatic power saving during charging" is set to "ON".
FF", the selection to execute the first information processing S1 (first mode) during charging is accepted. Further, when the "automatic power saving during non-charging" shown in FIG. 7 is "ON", the second information processing S2
(Second mode) is selected in advance to execute while not charging, and "automatic power saving during non-charging"
is "OFF", a selection to the effect that the first information processing S1 (first mode) is to be executed during non-charging is received in advance.

The selection accepting unit 41b may accept specification of a remaining battery level range as a condition for applying the selected information processing mode during charging. In FIGS. 6 and 7, when the user selects "ON" for the "remaining battery level condition", the condition for the remaining battery level is applied, and when the user selects "OFF", the condition for the remaining battery level is applied. does not apply. That is, when the user selects "OFF" for the "remaining battery level condition", regardless of the remaining battery level, the information processing mode accepted by the selection acceptance unit 41b is executed during charging or during non-charging. And "Battery remaining condition"
is "ON", the user can enter a numerical value of the battery level to which the battery level condition applies. The player 2 sets a numerical value (for example, 20%) corresponding to the desired charging amount (remaining battery capacity of the storage battery 33) in units of 1% within a numerical value range of 99% to 1% corresponding to the charging amount of the storage battery 33. is configured to allow When the "remaining battery level condition" is "OFF", the function may be restricted so that numerical input of the remaining battery level is not possible, or numerical input may always be permitted. For example, in the example of FIG. 6, the second mode is executed as the information processing mode during charging only when the remaining battery level is 20% or less, and the information processing mode during charging is executed when the remaining battery level is over 20%. The first mode is executed as In the example of FIG. 7, the second mode is executed as the non-charging information processing mode only when the remaining battery level is 20% or less, and the non-charging information processing mode is executed when the remaining battery level is over 20%. The first mode is executed as

In the present embodiment, the game application stored in the control unit 31 generates a notification regarding the information processing mode to the user using the terminal device based on preset conditions, and sends the output notification to the player terminal 30. Equipped with a charge amount notification function generated by For example, when the user selects "ON" for "power saving mode notification" shown in FIG.
When the information processing mode (for example, power saving mode, non-power saving mode, etc.) starts or ends during non-charging, a notification to that effect is output from the terminal device (specifically,
"Power saving mode started", "Power saving mode ended", etc.). The notification is displayed on the display 32 of the player terminal 30 by, for example, an icon or text data, or generated as voice or vibration. When the user selects "OFF" for "notification of power saving mode" shown in FIG. 8, notification regarding the information processing mode is not executed.

The game application stored in the control unit 31 sends a notification generated and output by the notification generation unit 41d to the player terminal 30 when the charge amount of the storage battery 33 reaches a preset charge amount.
Equipped with a charge amount notification function generated by In addition, the notification of the amount of charge will be notified when the predetermined amount of charge is reached in the process of increasing the remaining amount of battery by charging ("Charge amount has recovered to 20%").
etc.), or when the predetermined charge amount is reached in the process in which the remaining battery level decreases due to power consumption ("the charge amount has decreased to 20%", etc.).

As shown in FIG. 8, this charge amount notification function is 99% to 1 corresponding to the charge amount of the storage battery 33.
In the numerical value range of %, the player 2 is configured to be able to set a numerical value (for example, 20%) corresponding to a desired charge amount (remaining battery level of the storage battery 33) in units of 1%. Also, Fig. 8
By the user selecting either "ON" or "OFF" of the "remaining battery level notification" in , it is possible to determine whether or not to execute the charge level notification function based on the user's request.
When the "remaining battery level notification" is "ON", the charge amount notification function is executed, and when "OFF", the function is not executed.

When the remaining battery level of the storage battery 33 reaches the numerical value set by the player 2, in the present embodiment, a notification to the effect that the remaining battery level has reached the set numerical value is displayed on the display of the player terminal 30 by, for example, an icon or text data. 32 or generated as sound or vibration.

For example, a training function that trains game characters and items to increase their abilities, a loop function that manually or automatically loops game units such as in-game quests to acquire game media such as items, and a lottery that runs a lottery game The player selects an information processing mode (connected to power supply or not connected to power supply) for each function by inputting a selection from the above information processing mode options for each function. You may make it possible. Information such as options related to in-game functions is stored in the storage area 40 in advance, and power mode settings for each function are stored in association with each player.

Further, a schedule may be set for selection of the information processing mode during power supply connection and non-power supply connection. For example, "Turn on automatic power saving while connected to the power source from 10:00 to 12:00 on Mondays."
The player may select and set temporal conditions such as the start time and end time, and the information processing mode. Information such as options for various time conditions is stored in the storage area 40 in advance, and a schedule is stored in association with each player based on the selection of each player. Also, such as turning on automatic power saving only for 2 hours from the current time,
The start time may be the current time, and the end time may be set after a predetermined time.

Further, according to the selection of the information processing mode during power supply connection or non-power supply connection, the charging completion time or the charging time until charging completion may be calculated and displayed on the player terminal. Information related to charging completion time or calculation of charging time until charging completion is stored in storage area 4 in advance.
0 is stored. The information related to the calculation is, for example, information on the time required to recover (increase) the remaining battery level by 1% in each information processing mode. The control unit 31 can calculate the time required to complete charging in each information processing mode based on the information and the value obtained by subtracting the current remaining battery level (%) from 100 (%). . in this case,
For example, when one of a plurality of information processing modes is selected, by displaying the charging completion time (or the time until charging completion) corresponding to each information processing mode on the screen of the player terminal, the charging completion time can be confirmed. After that, the information processing mode of either ON or OFF of automatic power saving can be selected according to the player's request.
