2. Description of the Related Art In a conventional electronic device, in an image display device for displaying a character such as an animal, moving or changing the character image to be displayed is usually performed by a plurality of key input units. It is performed in response to a key input operation.

That is, for example, when a dog is displayed as the character image, a moving display of the dog in each direction can be performed by selectively operating cursor keys indicating up, down, left, and right.

[0004]

However, in the conventional image display device, the character image to be displayed is simply changed or moved in response to a key operation. Since only moving display of a character image or the like is performed in the key operation direction, for example, a displayed character image such as a dog is bred and grown by a user with a realistic sense of care and displayed. Can not be done, it is not interesting.

In view of the above, a recent image display device is considered to take care of giving a growth element such as food to a creature serving as a character image and change the display of the character image according to the state of the care.

However, even in a recent image display apparatus that changes the display of a character image according to the state of the care, if the contents of the care for the creature as the character image are the same, the operation of the care is not performed. Regardless of who the user performs, the change in the display of the character image is the same, and there is a problem that the character image cannot be given personality by the user.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above-described problems, and provides an image display apparatus, an image display method, and an image display process which enable a change characteristic of a character image to be individualized according to a user. An object is to provide a recording medium on which a program is recorded.

[0008]

That is, in the image display device according to the present invention, any unique identification data is set in association with the biological image stored in the biological image storage means by the identification data setting means. Then, the operation of the biological image displayed on the display unit is changed based on a series of operation images stored in the biological image storage unit according to the unique identification data set by the identification data setting unit. Therefore, for example, when a name is set in association with a biological image, a biological image having a different motion is displayed on the display means according to the name.
