Game processing system, method of processing game, and storage medium storing program for processing game
A game processing system for processing a game having a first mode and a second mode according to an aspect includes one or more computer processors. The one or more computer processors are configured to provide an interaction with a virtual character in the first mode and the second mode. In a switch process for switching the game from the first mode to the second mode, the one or more computer processors are configured to, start the second mode if a switch object is selected by a player of the game gazing at the switch object during a predetermined period of time since the switch object is displayed, and return to the first mode if the switch object is not selected during the predetermined period of time.
1. A game processing system for processing a game having a first mode and a second mode, the system comprising one or more computer processors configured to 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;
start a switch process for switching the game from the first mode to the second mode in response to detection of a first user operation by a controller, the controller being configured to be operated by the player;
start the second mode upon completion of the switch process; and
provide, in the second mode after being switched from the first 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.
2. The game processing system of claim 1 , further comprising one or more memory units for storing a mode switch condition for starting the switch process from the first mode to the second mode;
wherein the one or more computer processors are further configured to determine that the mode switch condition is satisfied in accordance with a progress of the first mode; and
wherein the switch process is started upon detection of the first user operation by the controller during the mode switch condition is satisfied.
3. The game processing system of claim 1 ,
wherein the one or more computer processors are further configured to display a switch start object on the information processing device in the first mode upon determination that the mode switch condition is satisfied; and
wherein the switch process is started in response to selection of the switch start object, the switch start object being selected upon detection of the first user operation by the controller.
4. The game processing system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more computer processors are further configured to complete the switch process upon detection of a second user operation by the controller.
5. The game processing system of claim 1 , wherein the controller is used in the first mode and/or the second mode to progress the game.
6. The game processing system of claim 1 , wherein the interaction with the virtual character in the first mode includes a prompting interaction through which the virtual character prompts the player to switch the game to the second mode.
7. The game processing system of claim 1 , wherein the interaction with the virtual character in the first mode includes a setting interaction for determining a setting of the second mode.
8. The game processing system of claim 1 , wherein said one or more computer processors are further configured to:
display a switch process image including a switch object on the head mounted display;
complete the switch process upon selection of the switch object by the player gazing at the switch object displayed on the head mounted display; and
provide the interaction with the virtual character in the second mode upon completion of the switch process.
9. The game processing system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more computer processors are configured to display, in response to detection of the first user operation, a guidance for prompting the player to put on the head mounted display on the information processing device.
10. The game processing system of claim 1 , wherein the head mounted display includes an attachment to be fitted on the head of the player and the information processing device mounted on the attachment.
11. The game processing system of claim 1 , wherein the game is started in the first mode.
12. The game processing system of claim 1 , wherein points of the player acquired in the first mode is caned over to the second mode.
13. The game processing system of claim 1 , wherein the first mode is a non-VR mode and the second mode is a VR mode.
14. The game processing system of claim 1 , wherein a common game content is used both in the first mode and the second mode.
15. The game processing system of claim 14 , wherein a game parameter associated with the common game content is changed in the first mode.
16. The game processing system of claim 15 , wherein the game parameter associated with the common game content is further changed in the second mode.
17. The game processing system of claim 16 , wherein the game parameter associated with the common game content is further changed in the switch process.
18. The game processing system of claim 17 , wherein the game parameter associated with the common game content is further changed in another switch process for switching from the second mode to the first mode.
19. 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;
starting a switch process for switching the game from the first mode to the second mode in response to detection of a first user operation by a controller, the controller being configured to be operated by the player;
starting the second mode upon completion of the switch process; and
providing, in the second mode after being switched from the first 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.
20. 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;
start a switch process for switching the game from the first mode to the second mode in response to detection of a first user operation by a controller, the controller being configured to be operated by the player;
start the second mode upon completion of the switch process; and
provide, in the second mode after being switched from the first 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.
