Abstract

A game processing system according to an aspect is a game processing system for processing a game having a first mode and a second mode, the system comprising: a storage storing a game parameter relating to the game; and one or more computer processors. The one or more computer processors execute computer-readable instructions to: provide, in the first mode, an interaction with a virtual character in accordance with first detection information obtained by an information processing device not mounted on a head of a player; provide, in the second mode, an interaction with the virtual character in accordance with second detection information obtained by a head mounted display mounted on the head of the player; and update the game parameter in accordance with progress of the game in the first mode and the second mode.

Claims (22)

1. A game processing system for processing a game having a first mode and a second mode, the system comprising:

a storage storing a game parameter relating to the game; and

one or more computer processors,

wherein the one or more computer processors execute computer-readable instructions to:

provide, in the first mode, an interaction with a virtual character in accordance with first detection information obtained by an information processing device not mounted on a head of a player;

provide, in the second mode, an interaction with the virtual character in accordance with second detection information obtained by a head mounted display mounted on the head of the player; and

update the game parameter in accordance with progress of the game in the first mode and the second mode.

2. The game processing system of claim 1 , wherein an action of the virtual character in the second mode is determined in accordance with the game parameter.

3. The game processing system of claim 1 , wherein

the storage stores scene data relating to each of a plurality of game scenes constituting a game scenario in the second mode, and

the one or more computer processors select a scene to be executed in the second mode from the plurality of game scenes in accordance with the game parameter.

4. The game processing system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more computer processors update the game parameter when the second mode is terminated abnormally.

5. The game processing system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more computer processors performs a switch process to switch from the first mode to the second mode such that a value of the game parameter as of an end of the first mode is equal to a value of the game parameter as of a start of the second mode.

6. A method of processing a game having a first mode and a second mode with one or more computer processors executing computer-readable instructions, the method comprising:

providing, in the first mode, an interaction with a virtual character in accordance with first detection information obtained by an information processing device not mounted on a head of a player;

providing, in the second mode, an interaction with the virtual character in accordance with second detection information obtained by a head mounted display mounted on the head of the player; and

updating a game parameter relating to the game in accordance with progress of the game in the first mode and the second mode.

7. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a game processing program to be executed by one or more computer processors for processing a game having a first mode and a second mode,

wherein the game processing program causes the one or more computer processors to:

provide, in the first mode, an interaction with a virtual character in accordance with first detection information obtained by an information processing device not mounted on a head of a player;

provide, in the second mode, an interaction with the virtual character in accordance with second detection information obtained by a head mounted display mounted on the head of the player; and

update a game parameter relating to the game in accordance with progress of the game in the first mode and the second mode.
