Systems and methods for monitoring gameplay for stopping points and applying a setting preference at a next predicted timing point. The monitored gameplay may be based on object data received from an object server. The supervising control server may predict one or more starting and/or stopping timing points in stopping periods within a gameplay session. The predicting of the one or more starting and/or stopping timing points may be based on a comparison of the gameplay data to historical gameplay data. Then, a setting preference set by a supervisory account may be applied to a next predicted timing point.

A puzzle game that enhances a degree of freedom of movement of a puzzle element includes selecting a first puzzle element; moving the first puzzle element; generating a coupled puzzle element when a puzzle element with a same appearance comes into contact with the first puzzle element; causing, when a second puzzle element of a different type comes into contact with the first puzzle element or the coupled puzzle element, the second puzzle element to execute a predetermined operation; and when at least a condition in that an operation of a player with respect to the first puzzle element is no longer performed or a condition in that a predetermined time has elapsed from a time point at which the selection of the first puzzle element is satisfied, erasing the first puzzle element or the coupled puzzle element from the game area.

A method and apparatus for game teaming in live streaming, and an electronic device and a computer-readable storage medium, relating to the technical field of computers. The method comprises: receiving a game teaming request, the game teaming request comprising user information of multiple game participants, the multiple game participants comprising a live streaming anchor user and at least one live streaming viewer user, the live streaming viewer user satisfying a specified live streaming teaming condition (S210); sending the game teaming request to a gaming platform (S220); and displaying a game teaming instruction returned by the gaming platform, so that the multiple game participants enter the gaming platform according to the game teaming instruction (S230).

A capture and distribution method for coordinating commands produced by input/output devices of a first and a second remote client associated with the same computer session running on a host computer, implements the following operations from the host computer: sending the same sequence of identifiable time marks to each remote client; receiving and temporarily storing the commands coming from the first and second remote clients for a storage duration, each command being associated with a coordination datum linking an instant at which the command was produced to a time mark; sequencing the commands received during the storage duration according to their associated coordination datum; and successively delivering the sequenced commands to the computer session.

Managing input sensitivity of an information handling system, including performing a calibration and configuration of an input sensitivity management model, including: identifying contextual data associated with the information handling system, the contextual data including i) system characteristics of the information handling system and ii) o user characteristics of a user of the information handling system; identifying historic states of the information handling system, the historic states including for each state in time of the information handling system, inputs to the information handling system and outputs of the information handling system based on the inputs to the information handling system; training, based on the contextual data and the historic states, the input sensitivity management model for determining an input sensitivity of the inputs to the information handling system; performing, after performing the calibration and configuration of the input sensitivity management model, a steady-state monitoring of the information handling system.

Methods and systems for presenting an image of a user interacting with a video game includes providing images of a virtual reality (VR) scene of the video game for rendering on a display screen of a head mounted display (HMD). The images of the VR scene are generated as part of game play of the video game. An input provided at a user interface on the HMD received during game play is used to initiate a signal to pause the video game and to generate an activation signal to activate an image capturing device. The activation signal causes the image capturing device to capture an image of the user interacting in a physical space. The image of the user captured by the image capturing device during game play is associated with a portion of the video game that corresponds with a time when the image of the user was captured. The association causes the image of the user to be transmitted to the HMD for rendering on the display screen of the HMD.

A game machine includes an operation acceptor, an output controller, and an evaluator. The operation acceptor is configured to accept an operation. The output controller is configured to display a reference indicator and a movement object, which moves toward the reference indicator, over the display screen. The output controller is configured to change a display position of the reference indicator and a movement direction of the movement object, based on a change condition. The evaluator is configured to evaluate the operation based at least in part on a first timing that the movement object reaches the reference indicator and a second timing that the operation acceptor accepts the operation.
