A system for providing an interactive experience for multiple game-players. The experience is provided in a light-controlled setting where the game-players may wear or hold one or more of various toys (e.g., gloves). The system detects and recognizes the toy along with gestures and pointing efforts performed by the game-player and the system generates an effect based on the type of toy and the type of gesture. The system also generates one or more visual targets that are visible to the game-player such as projections, holograms, and displays of one or more of various fantasy virtual adversaries. The generated effects may include any combination of sensory effects including visual, audio, tactile, and smell/taste. The generated effect may be directed based on the pointing efforts of the game-player. The system may then register the effect on the target, if the pointing efforts intersect with the virtual location of the target.

The present invention provides a screen shooting range and a method of playing a screen shooting game using artificial intelligence technologies. The screen shooting range includes a set studio including a plurality of shooting spaces virtually divided so as to continue a movement line of a user, wherein each of the divided shooting spaces is decorated according to different themes; a plurality of structures disposed in the shooting spaces; a sensor unit configured to detect a motion or position of the user; a plurality of image display units disposed in the shooting space to display images; a moving means provided so that the structure or the image display unit can be moved; a main server for storing a plurality of images as a manual and receiving position information of the laser point; and a controller for controlling internal configurations of the shooting space as a whole.

Current position information of an information processing apparatus is acquired by using a positional information acquiring section, and a distance, in a real space, between a current position and a target position that is a position corresponding to a predetermined position in the real space is calculated. Then, a predetermined process based on the calculated distance is executed when a parameter value indicating a virtual movement range of a player satisfies a first condition according to the calculated distance.

Technologies are described for providing turning in virtual reality environments. For example, some implementations use roll turning that involves rotating around an outer edge of a control input, some implementations use tap turning to move directly to a location indicated by a control movement, and some implementations involve combinations of roll turning and tap turning.

A non-limiting example game system includes a processor incorporated in a main body apparatus, and the processor makes a player character hit a ball according to an operation of a player. A movement gauge is displayed in a parameter determination screen, and the movement gauge includes a belt-shaped basic area and a risk area outside the basic area. A first index image is moved inside the basic area, and a hitting power is determined at a position that the movement is stopped by an operation of the player. The hitting power affects a flight distance of a ball. After the hitting power is determined, a position of a deviation indication image displayed along the first index image is determined at random. A deviation amount is made larger as the deviation indication image is moved away from the center of the first index image. The risk area is enlarged toward an upper end of the movement gauge. That is, if the flight distance of the ball is made longer, the deviation amount may become larger. The player plays a golf game in consideration of whether the flight distance of the ball is prioritized or the directionality is prioritized.

Method and system for granting in-game resources for a telematics-based game. In some examples, a computer-implemented method includes: generating, based on a character profile, one or more virtual occurrences to be encountered by a virtual character; determining, based on a plurality of virtual ratings of the virtual character, one or more outcomes associated with the one or more virtual occurrences; determining, based on a user's driving performance during one or more real trips, a first quantity of a first game resource at least for purchasing outcome-modifying items, the outcome-modifying items being exclusively purchasable using the first game resource; upon receiving the user's selection to use a first outcome-modifying item: updating the one or more outcomes according to a predetermined adjustment; and determining, based on the updated one or more outcomes, a second quantity of a second game resource at least for purchasing character cosmetic upgrades, unlocking in-game items, and unlocking regions of a virtual map.

A game processing system for processing of a game that provides interaction with a virtual character according to one embodiment includes a storage that stores action data for specifying one or more actions of the virtual character and one or more computer processors. The game includes a VR mode in which the game progresses in accordance with detection information obtained by a head mounted display. The one or more processors determine an action of the player performed toward the virtual character based on the detection information obtained by the head mounted display attached to the head of the player, cause the virtual character to interact with the player based on the action of the player; and suspend execution of the VR mode if a suspension condition is satisfied.
