Embodiments relate to hexagonal fragmentation of terrain. Terrain data including locations on a terrain and corresponding hex identifiers of hexagonal terrain tiles of a three-dimensional topology to be placed at the locations are received at a computing device. Hex definition data corresponding to a hexagonal terrain tile includes a constraint condition imposed on an adjacent hexagonal terrain tile so that it can be placed adjacent to the hexagonal terrain tiles. A representation of the terrain is generated by instantiating the hexagonal terrain tiles at the locations indicated in the terrain data with faces of one or more of the hexagonal terrain adjoined to each other in compliance with the constraint condition.

Various systems and methods for sharing electronic media are disclosed herein. According to particular embodiments, the system enables a user to select media (e.g., an image, a video, a gif, etc.) and compose a phrase to be associated with the media. In some embodiments, the system creates a post from the media and the phrase and enables the user to transmit the post to one or more other users to play (e.g., guess the phrase).

A game scrapbook system associated with a game progress includes: a data table setting setup information by recording at least one game environment associated with a generation of a predetermined event signal; an event signal generation unit generating the event signal when a game environment according to a game progress corresponds to at least a portion of the setup information; an image capturing unit, in response to the event signal, capturing a game image to generate game image information; and an image transmission unit transmitting the generated game image information to a remote location in a network using a network address.

Methods enable creation of a game slice from a game. Plurality of games is provided for presentation on a display device. Each game is identified by an image. Selection activity is detected at the image of one of the games. In response to the selection, game code of the selected game is executed to enable game play of an unlocked game. The selected game is streamed to the display device. User interaction related to the game play is received. A recording of the game play is examined to identify portions of the game for generating a game slice, which are returned in a suggested list for selection. Game slice is generated for a selected portion from the list. A recording of the game play for the game slice is associated as a primary video segment. The game slice and the primary video segment are provided for sharing over a network.

An in-game video game editing system and method is provided. An electronic processor executes a game software application to generate, on a display, a graphical gameplay interface including a plurality of sprites and a graphical editing panel listing predetermined modifications. The electronic processor receives a selection of one of the predetermined modifications ad determines a type of the predetermined modification. The type indicates whether the predetermined modification includes adding a new sprite or selecting an existing sprite. Based on the type, an existing sprite is selected from the graphical gameplay interface. The electronic processor then adds a block of code to the selected sprite based on the predetermined modification to generate a modified sprite, and executes the block of code to provide the modified sprite on the graphical gameplay interface.

Embodiments of the systems and methods described herein provide game terrain generation system that can generate height field data from a sketch of graphical inputs from a user via a graphical user interface. The game terrain generation system can use a model, such as a trained neural network, to apply macro and micro topological features on top of the height field data to generate game terrain data. The game terrain generation system can identify boundaries between different styles of terrain and generate transitions between the styles to create a more realistic terrain boundary.

A terminal device including: a memory configured to store computer-readable instructions and item information relating to a plurality of first items virtually arranged in association with a plurality of first predetermined positions in a real world, the plurality of first items corresponding to a plurality of items used in a game application; and a processor configured to execute the computer-readable instructions so as to detect a providable first item being virtually arranged within a predetermined range from a current user positon in the real world, provide the providable first item to a user who is executable the game application, create a second item based on the providable first item usable in the game application, and associate the created second item with a second predetermined position in the real world.

Methods of interacting with a mixed reality are presented. A mobile device captures an image of a real-world object where the image has content information that can be used to control a mixed reality object through an offered command set. The mixed reality object can be real, virtual, or a mixture of both real and virtual.

An example game apparatus selects an operational character that is to be used by a player in a multiplayer game with competition. The game apparatus selects an additional character that is to be added to the operational character from a plurality of candidates for an additional character to be selected. The additional character is associated with an image of the additional character, information of an effect to be given to performance in the game with competition of the operational character to which the additional character is added, and information about a type. The game apparatus generates a selection image including at least an image of the operational character selected by the player and each other user, an image of the additional character selected by the player, and an image of the type of the additional character, for display, during selection of the operational character and the additional character.

An example game apparatus executes an opponent information screen process of generating an image of an opponent information screen showing an opponent character and an opponent additional character, and executes a player information screen process of generating an image of a player information screen showing a player character and an additional character selected as an own additional character added to the player character according to an operational input. The image of the opponent information screen contains an opponent character image of the opponent character, an opponent additional character image of the opponent additional character, an own icon image, and an own type icon image. The image of the player information screen contains a player character image of the player character, an own additional character image of the selected own additional character, the own type icon image, an opponent icon image, and an opponent type icon image.
