In a second mode where a first enemy object attacks a player object in a virtual space, no matter which of a switching condition that a second time elapses and a switching condition that the player object gains a second required number of target objects smaller than a first required number before the second time elapses is satisfied, a game mode is switched to a first mode where the first enemy object does not attack the player object.

In a first mode, based on an operation input to a controller of a first player, a game system controls a first character object and controls a pointer object. In the first mode, the game system automatically controls a second character object and causes the second character object to perform a predetermined action on a position in a virtual space indicated by the pointer object. In a second mode, the game system controls the first character object based on the operation input to the controller of the first player and controls the second character object based on an operation input to a controller of a second player.

During an attack preparation state, a starting point of a first attack is moved from a first position to a second position that is a position where the first attack is executed, and in accordance with switching of an attack execution object from the attack preparation state to an attack execution state, the attack execution object is caused to execute the first attack. On the other hand, in accordance with switching of the attack execution object from a pre-attack-preparation state to the attack preparation state, a second shadow is drawn so that when a range where the first attack of which a starting point is the second position is blocked by a blocking object, the blocked range is a shadow of the blocking object.

The present disclosure provides a novel game apparatus on which a plurality of characters are controlled in a virtual space. An example game apparatusexecuting a game in which each of a plurality of players controls his/her plurality of characters in a virtual space includes a first input unitand a second input unitfor receiving a command from a first player and a second player respectively, and an information processing unitcausing the characters controlled by the first player to act according to a first player's command and causing the characters controlled by the second player to act according to a second player's command, wherein the plurality of characters controlled by the first player are on an equality with each other and the plurality of characters controlled by the second player are on an equality with each other.

The game apparatus generates an image of a virtual space viewed from a virtual camera as a reference image. The game apparatus then calculates a blurring value indicative of a blurring degree of the image. The blurring value is calculated so as to become greater than a reference value in the case where a movement amount of the virtual camera is equal to or greater than a predetermined amount, and to become smaller than the reference value in the case where the movement amount of the virtual camera is smaller than the predetermine amount. The game apparatus blurs an image outside a predetermined area of the reference image such that the blurring degree increases in accordance with an increase of the blurring value. The predetermined area is determined, from among an image area of the reference image, so as to include a position of a focus point of the virtual camera. Accordingly, a blurred image is displayed on a display apparatus.
