Game execution device and game program
According to one aspect of the present invention, the game execution device includes a receiver, an event controller, a selector, and a generator. The receiver receives a request for generating an event based on a request for executing intervention from an auxiliary server, which receives the request for executing intervention to the game issued by a terminal of audience of a real-time play video of the game. The event controller controls events that occur in the game, at least in response to requests for generating events. The selector selects events subject to notification up to a predetermined number of the first events that occur in the game during the first period. The generator generates notification data to inform a game player of the occurrence of events subject to notification.
1. A game executing device comprising:
a receiver configured to receive a request for generating an event from an auxiliary server, the request for generating an event being based on a request for executing an intervention to a game from a terminal of an audience member of a live video of the game;
an event controller configured to control the event that occurs in the game, at least in response to the request for generating the event and further configured to generate event data indicating events that occur in the game;
a selector configured to select events subject to notification up to a predetermined number of first events that occur in the game during a first period among the events indicated in the event data, when a number of first events exceeds the predetermined number;
an acquirer configured to acquire attributes of a requester of each first events; and
a generator configured to generate notification data to inform a player of the game of an occurrence of each event subject to notification, wherein a terminal of the player is configured to output at least one of a game screen or sound generated based on the event data and the notification data, the event data including event types of the events,
wherein the selector is configured to select the events subject to notification in descending order based on priorities assigned to the first events up to the predetermined number of the first events,
each priority of the priorities is predefined for each event type,
wherein the selector is configured to select a portion of a plurality of second events assigned a priority equal to a boundary value as the events subject to notification based on attributes of one or more requesters of the second events when a number of the first events assigned priorities equal to or higher than the boundary value exceeds the predetermined number of the first events, and
wherein the boundary value is equal to the priority that corresponds to the predetermined number of the first events when the first events are sorted in descending order based on the priorities assigned to the first events.
2. The game execution device according to claim 1 , wherein the attributes of the requester include a starting time the requester started viewing the real-time play video of the game.
3. The game execution device according to claim 1 , wherein the attributes of the requester include a time when the requester requested the execution of the intervention.
4. The game execution device according to claim 1 , wherein the attributes of the requester include a number of times when events that occurred in the game in response to requests of the requester were selected as events subject to notification during any period in the real-time play video of the game.
5. The game execution device according to claim 1 , wherein the notification data includes data in order to superimpose a sub-screen displaying the events subject to notification on a game screen.
6. The game execution device according to claim 1 , wherein when the number of the first events is smaller than the predetermined number of events, the selector further selects events that occurred in the game during a second period, which precedes the first period, but were not selected as events subject to notification during the second period, as events subject to notification during the first period.
7. A game program for enabling a computer to function as:
means configured to receive a request for generating an event from an auxiliary server, the request for generating an event being based on a request for executing an intervention to a game from a terminal of the audience member of a live video of the game;
at least in response to the request for generating the event, means configured to control the event that occurs in the game and to generate event data indicating events that occur in the game;
means configured to select events subject to notification up to the predetermined number of first events that occur in the game during a first period among the events indicated in the event data when a number of first events exceeds the predetermined number;
means configured to acquire attributes of a requester of the first events; and
means configured to generate notification data to notify a player of the game of an occurrence of each event subject to notification,
wherein a terminal of the player is configured to output at least one of a game screen or sound generated based on the event data and the notification data, the event data including event types of the events;
wherein the means for selecting is configured to select the events subject to notification in descending order based on priorities of assigned to the first events up to the predetermined number of the first events,
each priority of the priorities is predefined for each event type,
wherein the means for selecting is configured to select a portion of a plurality of second events assigned a priority equal to a boundary value as the events subject to notification based on attributes of one or more requesters of the second events when a number of the first events assigned priorities equal to or higher than the boundary value exceeds the predetermined number of the first events, and
wherein the boundary value is equal to the priority that corresponds to the predetermined number of the first events when the first events are sorted in descending order based on the priorities assigned to the first events.
8. The game program of claim 7 , wherein the attributes of the requester include a starting time the requester started viewing the real-time play video of the game.
9. The game program of claim 7 , wherein the attributes of the requester include a time when the requester requested the execution of the intervention.
10. The game program of claim 7 , wherein the attributes of the requester include a number of times when events that occurred in the game in response to requests of the requester were selected as events subject to notification during any period in the real-time play video of the game.
11. The game program of claim 7 , wherein the notification data includes data in order to superimpose a sub-screen displaying the events subject to notification on a game screen.
12. The program of claim 7 , wherein when the number of the first events is smaller than the predetermined number of events, the selector further selects events that occurred in the game during a second period, which precedes the first period, but were not selected as events subject to notification during the second period, as events subject to notification during the first period.
13. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing the game program of claim 7 .
