Systems and methods for modifying game assets based on tradeable items that are associated with user accounts of users of the online gaming platform are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may: store, in electronic storage, item information associated with the tradeable items; obtain a first item identifier of a first tradeable item; obtain first user information of a first user account; link the first tradeable item with the first user account such that a first item-account connection is established; store the first item-account connection; obtain, based on the first item identifier, the first modification information; receive, from the first user, an indication of a selection of a first game asset to be modified based on the first modification information such that a first asset-item connection is established; and modify, based on the first modification information, the first attribute information in accordance with the first tradeable item.

This application discloses a map generation method and apparatus, an electronic device, and a computer storage medium. The method includes: selecting a plurality of sub-level maps from a sub-level map library; sequentially placing first M sub-level maps of the plurality of sub-level maps in a predetermined map region, the first M sub-level maps being all located in the map region, and the first M sub-level maps not overlapping with each other; and sequentially placing the remaining sub-level maps not to overlap with the sub-level maps placed in the map region and to be connected to at least one of the sub-level maps placed in the map region, to obtain a target map.

Systems and methods for modifying game assets based on tradeable items that are associated with user accounts of users of an online gaming platform are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may: store item information, asset information, user inventories, item-account connections, and item-asset connections, obtain first item identifier, of first tradeable item from a client computing platform of a second user; obtain, by the first item identifier, first modification information; obtain second user information; link the first tradeable item with the second user account, establishing a second item-account connection; store the second item-account connection; receive, from the client computing platform, indication of a selection of a second game asset to be modified based on the first modification information, establishing a second item-asset connection; record the second item-asset connection; perform second modification, based on the first modification information, of the second attribute information; and adjust a first modification of first attribute information of a first game asset.

A method for influencing a gaming world of a video game. The method including cross-pollinating a first path using an inter-game communication medium across a plurality of virtual environments of a plurality of asynchronous game plays of a plurality of players playing the video game. The method including determining that a first path has been traversed one or more times by one or more characters of the plurality of players in the plurality of asynchronous game plays. The method including improving the first path based on a number of times the first path has been traversed by the one or more characters. The method including cross-pollinating the first path that has been improved across the plurality of virtual environments.

Systems and methods for updating content of a mobile video game allow for mobile communication devices to receive updated content for video games that operate on the devices. The updates may be promotional in nature, and may be pre-selected based on the device type, service, or service provider. The game may contain instructions that cause the mobile communication device to contact an interface and/or server to receive updated content. After the updated content is received by the mobile communication device, the content may be displayed in-game. The user of the mobile communication device may be provided with one or more options that affect the frequency or ability to receive or display updated content. In addition, the server may track what content has already been received by the mobile communication device.

A multi-user virtual reality universe (VRU) process receives input from multiple remote clients to manipulate avatars through a modeled 3-D environment. A VRU host models movement of avatars in the VRU environment in response to client input, which each user providing input for control of a corresponding avatar. The modeled VRU data is provided by the host to client workstations for display of a simulated environment visible to all participants. The host maintains personalized data for selected modeled objects or areas that is personalized for specific users in response to client input. The host includes personalized data in modeling the VRU environment. The host may segregate VRU data provided to different clients participating in the same VRU environment according to limit personalized data to authorized users, while all users receive common data.

A starting location for the mini-game is chosen in the legacy game state. A snapshot is generated of that location. Once the snapshot is taken, trigger events are identified. Triggers corresponding to the trigger events are identified. A mini-game script is generated using the snapshot and triggers. It is emphasized that this abstract is provided to comply with the rules requiring an abstract that will allow a searcher or other reader to quickly ascertain the subject matter of the technical disclosure. It is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims.

An example of an information processing system displays on a display device two or more selection candidates each corresponding to a game character in a draw mode. In the draw mode, a game character corresponding to a selected selection candidate is granted to the user in exchange for decreasing a predetermined parameter. When a cumulative grant count becomes equal to or greater than a reference count, the information processing system permits execution of a designated mode. In the designated mode, a game character designated by the user is granted to the user. In the draw mode, the information processing system accepts a selection instruction until an end process is performed even after the cumulative grant count becomes equal to or greater than the reference count.

A game development system includes: a game apparatus for executing a game program being developed; and an information processing apparatus that is communicably connected to the game apparatus. Processing that the game program being developed causes the computer of the game apparatus to execute includes generating a log relating to the data to be used in the game processing during execution of the game processing, which is processing for generating, in a binary format, a log in which a character string indicating a place holder and a character string that is not a place holder are included in a designated alignment, and the data to be substituted into the place holder is included.

A game development method and apparatus, a game running method and apparatus, and an electronic device. The game development method comprises: receiving a development instruction for a target function of a game (S101); obtaining a target prefabricated part corresponding to the target function from a preset database on the basis of the development instruction, a plurality of prefabricated parts being pre-stored in the database, each prefabricated part corresponding to one function setting, and each prefabricated part comprising a control configured with a preset logic, an application interface, and a backend invocation cloud function (S102); and developing the target function of the game according to the target prefabricated part (S103). According to the method, the development workload can be effectively reduced, the development labor cost and the later server maintenance cost are reduced, and thus the development efficiency is effectively improved.
