(Detection of input operation)
FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating a process in which the input operation receiving unit 191 detects a type of input operation. In the example of FIG. 4, the positions on the touch screen 130 detected by the touch panel 131 are set in each of the 11 arrays from the array fp [0] to the array fp [10] of the storage unit 150 that stores the user information 153. The history information to be shown is stored. The history information is stored in the history information table every predetermined period (for example, every frame rate). The number of arrays in which history information is stored is not limited, and may be any number. Further, in the history information table, the history information detected when the touch-off is turned on may be stored in the storage unit 150 as the initial position coordinates.

As shown in FIG. 4, for example, when the history information (x0, y0) is stored in the array fp [0] to the array fp [9] and the null value is stored in the array fp [10]. The input operation reception unit 191 determines that the input operation is a tap operation. Further, for example, when the null value is stored after the history information is changed in the touch now state, the input operation receiving unit 191 has the array fp [3] and the array fp immediately before the array fp [5] in which the null value is stored. Refer to the history information stored in [4]. Then, the input operation receiving unit 191 determines that the input operation is a flick operation when the distance between the positions indicated by the history information of the array fp [3] and the array fp [4] is equal to or larger than a preset threshold value. Determine. Further, when the history information (x15, y15) is stored in the arrays fp [4] to fp [10] after the history information is changed in the touch now state, the input operation reception unit 191 can perform the input operation by dragging. Determine if there is.

When the input operation receiving unit 191 determines that the user's operation is a drag operation, the game character is based on the coordinates that are the starting point and the coordinates that the touch screen 130 detects the approach of the user's finger or the like. Detects the direction in which to move.

The state (A) of FIG. 5 shows a state in which the user brings the finger closer to the touch screen 130 from the state in which the user's finger is separated from the touch screen 130. The input operation reception unit 191 detects that the user's finger has approached the touch panel 131, and holds the detected coordinates as the user information 153 in the storage unit 150 as the initial touch position.

In the example of FIG. 5, the coordinates of the initial touch position held by the storage unit 150 are shown as the initial touch position coordinates 155. The input operation reception unit 191 has not detected the detection result of the touch screen 130 (coordinates where the user's finger is approaching the touch screen 130 and that the user's finger is not approaching the touch screen 130 (). The detection result "null")) is stored in the buffer memory as user information 153 for a certain frame. The buffer memory can store the detection result on the touch screen 130 for a fixed frame for each frame (11 frames from the array fp [0] to the array fp [10] in the example of FIG. 5). The buffer memory can be realized as, for example, a ring buffer.

In the example of the state (A) of FIG. 5, the position where the user presses the touch screen 130 is shown as the pressing position 30A (coordinates of the touch screen 130 (x0, y0)).

In the state (B) of FIG. 5, the user drags the touch screen 130 to change the pressing position with respect to the touch screen 130 from the pressing position 30A to the pressing position 30B (coordinates (x9, y9) of the touch screen 130). It shows that it was moved in 10 frames (10 frames from the array fp [0] to the array fp [9]). The input operation receiving unit 191 stores the detection result of the touch screen 130 as user information 153 in the buffer memory, refers to the value held in the buffer memory, and determines that the user's operation on the touch screen 130 is a drag operation.

In the state (C) of FIG. 5, the position where the user is pressing the touch screen 130 is moved from the pressing position 30B to the pressing position 30C (coordinates of the touch screen 130 (x14, y14)) by 5 frames (array fp [10], It is shown that the movement was performed by 5 frames of fp [0], fp [1], fp [2], and fp [3].

The state (D) of FIG. 5 shows the detection result of the input operation in which the movement direction detection unit 193 specifies the direction in which the user moves the game character in each of the state (B) and the state (C). The moving direction detection unit 193 manages information (writing position of the buffer memory) indicating which memory area is the target for writing the coordinates of the pressed position detected by the touch screen 130 in the buffer memory.

In the state (B) of FIG. 5, the movement direction detection unit 193 has coordinates 31B (coordinates (x9)) from coordinates 31A (coordinates (x0, y0)) indicating the initial touch position based on the determination result of the input operation reception unit 191. , Y9)) Detects that the user has performed a drag operation. The movement direction detection unit 193 moves the game character in the vector 32B ((y9-y0) / (x9-x0)) defined by the coordinates 31A and the coordinates 31B, starting from the coordinates 31A of the initial touch position. Detect as.

In the state (C) of FIG. 5, the moving direction detecting unit 193 is from the coordinates 31B (coordinates (x9, y9)) to the coordinates 31C (coordinates (x14, y14)) based on the determination result of the input operation receiving unit 191. Detects that the user has performed a drag operation. The movement direction detection unit 193 moves the game character in the vector 32C ((y14-y0) / (x14-x0)) defined by the coordinates 31A and the coordinates 31C, starting from the coordinates 31A of the initial touch position. Detect as.

In this way, the moving direction detection unit 193 is the second touch position while detecting that the user's finger is approaching from the first touch position that detects that the user's finger is approaching the touch screen 130 from the state where the user's finger is not approaching. When the detection position moves to the touch position, the virtual operation direction of the game character CA1 is the direction from the first touch position to the second touch position while detecting that the detection position is approaching. Determined as the direction of movement in space.

Can be done smoothly.

(Performance of quest)
As the game progresses, the game character CA1 performs a quest. For example, the game character CA1 receives a quest request from a character in the game, and the game progresses by executing the quest. As shown in FIG. 21, the game character CA1 receives a quest request from the non-player game character NPC1. The quest corresponds to, for example, the acquisition of a specific item. In this case, as shown in FIG. 22, the game character CA1 moves to a certain position and acquires the item based on the item information while the game is in progress. The content of the quest may be other request content such as subjugation of a specific character in the game.

As shown in FIG. 23, when the game character CA1 acquires an item, the notification OB11 is displayed on the icon IC1. The notification OB 11 is a notification indicating that there is reception in any application of the in-game mobile terminal SM1, and is notified as, for example, a badge display. When the user performs an input operation on the icon IC1, the notification SM30 is displayed on the icon SM15 related to the game talk, as shown in FIG. 24. The notification SM30 is a notification indicating that there is unread in the talk, and is notified as, for example, a badge display. At this time, the icon SM15 may be displayed so as to jump up to the upper position. In this case, by displaying the icon SM15 in this way, it can be easily recognized that the icon SM15 has an unread item. Then, when the user performs an input operation on the icon SM15, a message is displayed from the game character NPC1 as shown in FIG. 25, and the action to be taken by the game character CA1 for completing the quest is shown. As a result, the action to be taken by the game character CA1 becomes clear, and the quest can be executed smoothly.

FIG. 26 is a flowchart of the notification process in the quest. The notification process of FIG. 26 is a process performed by the control unit 190 executing the game program 151. First, in step S70, the control unit 190 determines whether or not the quest is being executed in the game. If it is determined in the game that the quest is not being executed (step S70: NO), this notification process is terminated. On the other hand, if it is determined that the quest is being executed in the game (step S70: YES), the process shifts to step S72, and the control unit 190 determines whether or not the quest clearing condition is satisfied. For example, the control unit 190 determines whether or not the game character CA1 has completed the request content of the quest. If it is determined that the quest clearing condition is not satisfied (step S72: NO), this notification process is terminated. On the other hand, when it is determined that the quest clearing condition is satisfied (step S72: YES), the process shifts to step S74, and the control unit 190 executes the notification process. That is, the control unit 190 displays the notification OB 11 on the icon IC 1 displayed on the game screen as shown in FIG. 23. Further, as shown in FIG. 24, the control unit 190 causes the notification SM30 to be displayed on the talk icon SM15 of the in-game mobile terminal SM1. When the process of step S74 is completed, a series of notification processes are completed.

(Mobile terminals of other users participating in the game)
FIG. 27 is an example of a game screen displayed on a mobile terminal of another user (an example of a second user). As an example, another user participates in the game in which the user is participating via the mobile terminal 10B (an example of the terminal of the second user). The mobile terminal 10B includes a touch screen 130B, a home button 35B, and function buttons 36B and 37B. The touch screen 130B and the home button 35B are the same as the touch screen 130 and the home button 35A of the mobile terminal 10A. The function buttons 36B and 37B are input units capable of performing predetermined terminal operations.

On the touch screen 130B, a game screen similar to the game screen shown in FIG. 6 is displayed. In the game screen, as compared with the game screen shown in FIG. 6, the game character is the game character CA2 of another user (an example of the second character), and the virtual camera is the camera work based on the game character CA2. The difference is that they are. Further, the objects OB1 to OB8 are displayed reflecting the parameters of the game character CA2. Other points are the same as the game screen shown in FIG. The game character CA2 travels in a different world in which the game character CA1 is progressing. That is, the game character CA1 and the game character CA2 travel in the same different world.

FIG. 28 is an example of a game image in which an in-game mobile terminal is displayed on a mobile terminal of another user. When another user performs an input operation on the icon IC1 shown in FIG. 27, the in-game mobile terminal SM1 is displayed on the touch screen 130B. The in-game mobile terminal SM1 is the same as the content described with reference to FIG.

Since the game character CA1 and the game character CA2 are traveling in the same different world, a virtual camera based on the game character CA1 may capture the game character CA2. That is, the game character CA2 may be reflected on the touch screen 130 of the user's mobile terminal 10A. At this time, the display of the game character CA2 of another user reflected on the touch screen 130 is changed according to the input operation of the other user to the mobile terminal 10B. As a specific example, the display mode of the game character CA2 is changed depending on whether or not an input operation by another user who selects the icon IC1 is accepted.

When the input operation by another user who selects the icon IC1 is not accepted, the game screen shown in FIG. 29 is displayed on the touch screen 130 of the user's mobile terminal 10A as an example. FIG. 29 is an example of a game image when a virtual camera based on the game character CA1 captures the game character CA2. As shown in FIG. 29, the game character CA2 of another user is displayed on the touch screen 130 of the user's mobile terminal 10A. The game character CA2 is displayed in a normal state as the game screen progresses. As a specific example, the game character CA2 is in a state of holding a weapon.

When an input operation by another user who selects the icon IC1 is accepted, the game screen shown in FIG. 30 is displayed as an example. FIG. 30 is another example of a game image when a virtual camera based on the game character CA1 captures the game character CA2. As shown in FIG. 30, the game character CA2 of another user is displayed on the touch screen 130 of the user's mobile terminal 10A. The game character CA2 using the mobile terminal SM is displayed on the touch screen 130.

In this way, since the game character CA2 using the mobile terminal SM is displayed, the user can recognize that another user is operating the in-game mobile terminal SM1. In the following, displaying the game character CA2 using the mobile terminal SM is also referred to as walking smartphone display.

(Display processing of games in which multiple users participate)
FIG. 31 is a flowchart of a game display process in which a plurality of users participate. The process shown in FIG. 31 is executed when the game is started using the mobile terminal 10A and the mobile terminal 10B.

In step S80, the mobile terminal 10A displays the game character CA1 as the display process of the first character. For example, the display control unit 196 of the mobile terminal 10A causes the touch screen 130 to display the game character CA1 (see FIG. 6).

In step S200, the mobile terminal 10B transmits information about the game character CA2 to the server 20 as information transmission processing of the second character. For example, the control unit 190 of the mobile terminal 10B obtains user information (user information that identifies the source user) and the position of the game character CA2 in the game (position of the game character of the source user) via the wireless communication IF 120. , Send to server 20. Then, the mobile terminal 10B ends the process.

In step S100, the server 20 receives information about the game character CA2 from the mobile terminal 10B as the information receiving process of the second character. For example, the server 20 receives information about the game character CA2 from the mobile terminal 10B via the communication unit 220.

In step S102, the server 20 transmits the information about the game character CA2 received in step S100 to the mobile terminal 10A as the information transmission process of the second character. For example, the server 20 transmits information about the game character CA2 to the mobile terminal 10A via the communication unit 220. Then, the server 20 ends the process.

In step S82, the mobile terminal 10A receives information about the game character CA2 from the server 20 as information receiving processing of the second character. For example, the control unit 190 of the mobile terminal 10A receives information about the game character CA2 from the server 20 via the wireless communication IF 120.

In step S84, the mobile terminal 10A determines whether or not the game character CA2 exists within the angle of view of the virtual camera as a determination process. For example, the display control unit 196 of the mobile terminal 10A has an angle of view of the virtual camera based on the arrangement and shooting direction of the virtual camera in the virtual space and the position in the game of the game character CA2 received in step S82. It is determined whether or not the game character CA2 exists in the game character CA2.

When it is determined that the game character CA2 exists within the angle of view of the virtual camera (step S84: YES), in step S86, the mobile terminal 10A displays the game character CA1 and the game character CA2 as display processing. For example, the display control unit 196 of the mobile terminal 10A causes the touch screen 130 to display the game character CA1 and the game character CA2 (see FIG. 29).

When step S86 is completed and when it is determined that the game character CA2 does not exist within the angle of view of the virtual camera (step S84: NO), the mobile terminal 10A ends the process.

This completes the flowchart shown in FIG. 31. By executing the flowchart shown in FIG. 31, the game character CA2 operated by the mobile terminal 10B is displayed on the touch screen 130 of the mobile terminal 10A. The process of transmitting information from the mobile terminal 10A to the mobile terminal 10B is the same as in FIG. 31. That is, by exchanging the mobile terminal 10A and the mobile terminal 10B in the figure, the game character CA1 operated by the mobile terminal 10A can be displayed on the touch screen 130B of the mobile terminal 10B.

(Flowchart of walking smartphone display processing)
FIG. 32 is a flowchart of the start processing of the walking smartphone display. The process shown in FIG. 32 is started, for example, in a situation where step S86 shown in FIG. 31 is being executed.

In step S210, the mobile terminal 10B determines whether or not an input operation for operating the in-game mobile terminal has been accepted as the determination process. For example, the input operation reception unit 191 of the mobile terminal 10B determines whether or not the input operation by the user who selects the icon IC1 is accepted via the touch screen 130B.

When it is determined that the input operation for operating the in-game mobile terminal has been accepted (step S210: YES), in step S212, the mobile terminal 10B transmits the operation information to the server 20 as the operation information transmission process. For example, the control unit 190 of the mobile terminal 10B transmits information indicating that there is an input operation by the user who selects the icon IC 1 to the server 20 via the wireless communication IF 120.

Subsequently, in step S214, the mobile terminal 10B displays the home screen as the home screen display process. For example, the display control unit 196 of the mobile terminal 10B causes the touch screen 130B to display the home screen of the in-game mobile terminal (see FIG. 28).

When step S214 is completed and when it is determined that the input operation for operating the in-game mobile terminal is not accepted (step S210: NO), the mobile terminal 10B ends the process.

In step S110, the server 20 receives the operation information from the mobile terminal 10B as the operation information reception process. For example, the server 20 receives operation information from the mobile terminal 10B via the communication unit 220.

In step S112, the server 20 transmits the operation information received in step S110 to the mobile terminal 10A as the operation information transmission process. For example, the server 20 transmits operation information to the mobile terminal 10A via the communication unit 220. Then, the server 20 ends the process.

In step S88, the mobile terminal 10A receives the operation information from the server 20 as the operation information reception process. For example, the control unit 190 of the mobile terminal 10A receives operation information from the server 20 via the wireless communication IF 120.

In step S90, the mobile terminal 10A changes the displayed game character CA2 to the game character CA2 that operates the in-game mobile terminal and displays it as a display process. For example, the display control unit 196 of the mobile terminal 10A causes the touch screen 130 to display the game character CA2 that operates the mobile terminal SM (see FIG. 30). Then, the mobile terminal 10A ends the process.

This completes the flowchart shown in FIG. 32. By executing the flowchart shown in FIG. 32, the game character CA2 for operating the mobile terminal SM is displayed on the touch screen 130 of the mobile terminal 10A. The process of displaying the game character CA1 that operates the mobile terminal SM on the mobile terminal 10B is also the same as in FIG. 32. That is, by exchanging the mobile terminal 10A and the mobile terminal 10B in the figure, the game character CA1 for operating the mobile terminal SM can be displayed on the touch screen 130B of the mobile terminal 10B.

Next, the end processing of the walking smartphone display will be described. FIG. 33 is a flowchart of the end processing of the walking smartphone display. The process shown in FIG. 33 is started, for example, in a situation where step S90 shown in FIG. 32 is being executed.

In step S220, the mobile terminal 10B determines whether or not the input operation for terminating the operation of the in-game mobile terminal has been accepted as the determination process. For example, the input operation reception unit 191 of the mobile terminal 10B determines whether or not the input operation by the user who selects the home button SM18 is accepted via the touch screen 130B.

When it is determined that the input operation for terminating the operation of the in-game mobile terminal has been accepted (step S220: YES), in step S222, the mobile terminal 10B transmits the operation information to the server 20 as the operation information transmission process. .. For example, the control unit 190 of the mobile terminal 10B transmits information indicating that there is an input operation by the user who selects the home button SM18 to the server 20 via the wireless communication IF 120.

Subsequently, in step S224, the mobile terminal 10B ends the display of the in-game mobile terminal including the home screen as the end processing of the home screen display. For example, the display control unit 196 of the mobile terminal 10B ends the display of the in-game mobile terminal including the home screen on the touch screen 130B. As a result, the game character CA2 transitions to the game screen in which the field is moved (screen transition from FIG. 28 to FIG. 27). Then, the mobile terminal 10B ends the process.

In step S120, the server 20 receives the operation information from the mobile terminal 10B as the operation information reception process. For example, the server 20 receives operation information from the mobile terminal 10B via the communication unit 220.

In step S122, the server 20 transmits the operation information received in step S110 to the mobile terminal 10A as the operation information transmission process. For example, the server 20 transmits operation information to the mobile terminal 10A via the communication unit 220. Then, the server 20 ends the process.

In step S92, the mobile terminal 10A receives the operation information from the server 20 as the operation information reception process. For example, the control unit 190 of the mobile terminal 10A receives operation information from the server 20 via the wireless communication IF 120.

In step S94, the mobile terminal 10A changes the displayed game character CA2 for operating the mobile terminal SM to a normal game character CA2 and displays it as a display termination process. For example, the display control unit 196 of the mobile terminal 10A causes the touch screen 130 to display the game character CA2 having a weapon (screen transition from FIG. 30 to FIG. 29). Then, the mobile terminal 10A ends the process.

This completes the flowchart shown in FIG. 33. By executing the flowchart shown in FIG. 33, the display of the game character CA2 that operates the in-game mobile terminal is terminated on the touch screen 130 of the mobile terminal 10A. In the mobile terminal 10B, the process of ending the display of the game character CA1 that operates the in-game mobile terminal is the same as in FIG. 33. That is, by exchanging the mobile terminal 10A and the mobile terminal 10B in the figure, the display of the game character CA1 that operates the in-game mobile terminal can be terminated on the touch screen 130B of the mobile terminal 10B.
