A non-transitory computer readable recording medium having stored thereon instructions to be executed on by a game server, the game server and corresponding method which cause the game server to perform the steps of: provide a networked multiplayer battle game over a network, storing a battle history including an identifier of an opponent with whom a user has battled in the multiplayer battle game; determining, based on the battle history and an identifier of an opponent with whom a battle begins, a procedure for conducting the battle in the battle game to be one of a first mode for conducting the battle based on user operations and a second mode for conducting the battle with fewer user operations than in the first mode, and conducting the battle with the determined procedure.

A system that mirrors motion of a physical object by displaying a virtual object moving in a virtual environment. The mirroring display may be used for example for feedback, coaching, or for playing virtual games. Motion of the physical object is measured by motion sensors that may for example include an accelerometer, a gyroscope, and a magnetometer. Sensor data is transmitted to a computer that calculates the position and orientation of the physical object and generates a corresponding position and orientation of the virtual object. The computer may correct or adjust the calculations using sensor data redundancies. The virtual environment may include constraints on the position, orientation, or motion of the virtual object. These constraints may be used to compensate for accumulating errors in position and orientation. The system may for example use proportional error feedback to adjust position and orientation based on sensor redundancies and virtual environment constraints.

An example of an information processing apparatus acquires action data based on an output of a sensor according to a fitness action performed by a player, and executes a game event. In the game event, the information processing apparatus designates at least one type of fitness event from among a plurality of types of fitness events. Each fitness event causes the player to perform a fitness action. During the game event, the information processing apparatus executes a fitness event that causes the player to perform a fitness action corresponding to the designated fitness event until an ending condition is satisfied. The information processing apparatus determines whether or not the achievement condition has been satisfied, based on the action data acquired during the fitness event. The information processing apparatus repeats designation and execution of the fitness event until it is determined that the achievement condition has been satisfied.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium stores an image generation program to perform a method. The method includes determining, in a scene including a timing of a hit of an attack in a battle between characters in a game space, the timing of the hit, and a predetermined portion of a predetermined character and an opponent portion of an opponent character in the battle where the hit will occur, from the predetermined character, the opponent character, and animation data that causes at least the opponent character to perform an action of the battle; calculating a vector from the predetermined portion to the opponent portion at the hit timing; and generating an image of the scene by moving a position of the opponent portion in each frame included in the scene by using the vector such that the opponent portion hits the predetermined portion at the hit timing.

A method for providing a game for conquering virtual buildings on virtual maps corresponding to actual buildings on actual maps includes steps of: a game server (a) determining location information of a first player from a GPS signal, displaying the virtual maps with the virtual buildings and displaying building metadata and combat power data corresponding to a specific virtual building, (b) requesting the first player who requested a siege battle to pay siege battle fees or select siege battle requesting contents, and (c) displaying total combat powers of participating characters selected by the first player and a second player corresponding to a current owner of the specific virtual building, wherein profit distribution algorithms provide at least part of a portion of game profits generated from the siege battle fees and the siege battle requesting contents belonging to the specific virtual building or a specific virtual region to the current owner.

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a display screen and a computing hardware. The computing hardware is operable to execute a software product, wherein executing the software product results in generating and rendering a graphical user interface on the display screen, the graphical user interface being configured to facilitate user interactions, the computing hardware, the software product and the graphical user interface being implemented on a gaming system, the gaming system comprising a game, wherein the software product, when executed on the computing hardware, is configured to present a first view on the graphical user interface, present one or more user-selectable graphical objects on the graphical user interface, detect a user's selection of one of the one or more of the user-selectable graphical objects to be deployed in the first view on the graphical user interface, detect a user's selection of a deploy point on the first view, and execute deployment of the one of the one or more of the user-selectable graphical objects to the first view of the graphical user interface, wherein other set of graphical objects emerge from the one or more user-selectable graphical object and enter to the first view from one or more areas in a proximity of the deploy point.
