Readable storage medium storing action game program, and action game device and control method for same
View Patent ↗A user is able to play a game with a more realistic sensation of being an actual player. In a video game device main unit 1, a button press detecting section 103 detects the force with which buttons on a controller 5 are depressed, and a left stick operation detecting section 105 detects the speed at which an analogue stick on the controller 5 is inclined, and the angular speed at which the analogue stick is rotated. A ball path of travel setting section 104 sets the speed and path of travel of the ball, or the like, according to the force detected by the button press detecting section 103, and the speed and angular speed detected by the left stick operation detecting section 105.
1. A readable storage medium storing an action game program, said program comprising the steps of:
receiving input of a first instruction relating to an action with respect to a same team player character, for a player character in possession of a ball existing in a game space and displayed on a screen;
receiving input of a second instruction specifying a reference direction originating at said player character by means of a prescribed stick;
performing control in such a manner that the ball is moved in accordance with the input first instruction, to a same team player character in the reference direction according to the input second instruction, without touching the ground on the way;
detecting a speed at which the stick is inclined;
setting a height that the ball reaches according to the detected speed; and
judging whether or not a same team player character is present at a ball landing point set according to said height reached by the ball, and if it is judged that a same team player character is so present, then the ball is controlled such that it moves to the same team player character, whereas if it is judged that no same team player character is so present, then the ball is controlled such that it moves in said reference direction.
2. A readable storage medium storing an action game program according to claim 1 , further comprising the steps of:
receiving input of other instructions for a particular same team player character by means of prescribed buttons;
performing control in such a manner that prescribed actions are performed in accordance with the input instructions;
detecting a force with which a button is depressed is detected; and
setting a speed of said action according to the detected force.
3. A readable storage medium storing an action game program according to claim 2 , wherein:
same team player characters including the the particular same team player character, and opposing player characters, compete for possession of the ball in a game space; and
said action is a sliding tackle performed by the particular same team player character who is not in possession of the ball against an opposing player character who is in possession of the ball.
4. A readable storage medium storing an action game program according to claim 2 , wherein:
same team player characters including the particular same team player character, and opposing player characters compete for possession of the ball in a game space; and
said action is a dribble performed by the particular same team player character that is in possession of the ball.
5. A readable storage medium storing an action game program, said program comprising the steps of:
receiving input of a first instruction relating to an action with respect to a same team player character, to a player character in possession of a ball existing in a game space and displayed on a screen, by means of prescribed buttons,
receiving input of a second instruction specifying a reference direction originating at said player character;
performing control in such a manner that the ball is moved in accordance with the input first instruction, to a same team player character located within a prescribed horizontal angle from the reference direction according to the input second instruction;
detecting a force with which a button is depressed; and
setting a magnitude of said horizontal angle according to the detected force.
6. The readable storage medium storing an action game program according to claim 5 , further comprising the steps of:
judging whether or not a same team player character is present within the horizontal angle set to said magnitude, and if it is judged that a same team player character is so present, then the ball is controlled such that it moves to the same team player character, whereas if it is judged that no same team player character is so present, then the ball is controlled such that it moves in said reference direction.
