A game system is provided that is capable of setting appropriate classifications for various musical pieces. This game system provides a music game in which each of musical pieces for which a level of difficulty is set is prepared as a play subject. The game system offers a chance of certification match in which musical pieces are supplied for each rank classification that is set for each musical piece with reference to the level of difficulty. And the game system acquires achievement information related to the clearing rate for each musical piece for each rank classification, such as the play results of certification matches and so on, and, on the basis of these acquired results, changes each rank classification to which each musical piece belongs with reference to this achievement information.

Game system, and control method and storage medium used in same

Provided is a game machine which can actualize a play between games having different difficulty levels. The game machine is applied to a game system that progresses a game between game machines connected via a network. The game machine comprises an external storage that stores sequence data wherein each operation timing is written so as to differ from each other. And, the game machine: teaches each operation timing, based on sequence data that differs from sequence data used in another machine functioning as another terminal in the game system; obtains operation information for the other machine; and, based on it, determines whether or not prescribed reflection conditions have been fulfilled. Then, when the prescribed reflection conditions have been fulfilled based on its results, the game machine reflects the operation information for the other machine in a travel path for an object for teaching the operation timing for the game machine.

Game machine, control method used therefor, and a non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing a computer program

A gaming system is provided with a monitor () for displaying and outputting a gaming screen (), a touch panel () superposed upon the monitor (), and an external storage device () for storing sequence data () in which operational periods of the touch panel () have been described. In addition, the gaming system displays on the monitor () a gaming area () whereon two reference units (A andB) disposed apart from each other and a specific reference unit (T) disposed in the vicinity of the reference units are set. Also, an object () for instructing operations for each of the reference units (A,B, andT) is displayed while being caused to move in the gaming area (), and the path of movement of a specific object (S) heading toward the specific reference unit (T) is restricted to a fixed path.

Game system, control method, and a storage medium storing a computer program used thereof

A gaming system is provided with a monitor for displaying and outputting a gaming screen, a touch panel superposed upon the monitor, and an external storage device for storing sequence data in which an operational period of the touch panel has been described. In addition, the gaming system displays upon the monitor a gaming area whereupon two reference units disposed apart from each other and a specific reference unit disposed in the vicinity of the reference units are set. Also, an object for instructing operations for each of the reference units is displayed while being caused to move within the gaming area, and in the case of a mis-operation of a specific object heading toward the specific reference unit, the specific object is destroyed, and the path which had been set as the object appearance area is used as the path of movement for the next object.

The disclosed data generation system is provided with a monitor for displaying a game area and a touch panel, wherein in a game for displaying two operation reference units and an object which moves therebetween upon the game area, sequence data used as data for designating an operation time period for touch-operation and operation reference units are generated. The data generation system displays, upon a display unit, an editing screen including a time period information display area for displaying information of all operation time periods chronologically and a criteria unit designation area for displaying information of operation time periods of each of the operation reference units chronologically, and for displaying, upon a criteria unit designation area, information for associating information of each of the objects corresponding to each operation time period with information of the operation reference unit where display of each of the objects is started.

Data generation system, date generation method, and a non-transitory storage medium storing a computer program configured to generate sequence data that describes reference timing in a game

Improved is the control of travel speed of operation indication marker in the case that the case that the delay in detection of operation time occurs. The game machine makes the object () pump between the reference portions (A,B) corresponding to the operation portions of online opponent players, and makes the player of the own game machine perform the operation portion at the time when the object () reaches the reference portion (A). The game machine determines whether the detection delay of operation time occurs. When the delay occurs, the game machine estimates as the original distance, the distance from the object () to the next arrival position (R) assuming that the delay did not occur (the distance on the path R-CR), and the display of the object () is corrected so that the difference between the original distance estimated and the actual distance from the object () to the next arrival position (the distance on the path A, C, R) is eliminated earlier than the operation time corresponding to the next arrival position (R).

Game machine, and control method and storage medium storing computer program used therefor

The disclosed game system is provided with a monitor () for displaying and outputting a game screen (), a touch panel () overlaid upon the monitor (), and an external storage device () for storing sequence data () wherein operation time periods of the touch panel () during a game are described. In addition, the game system displays upon the monitor () a game area () in which two operation reference units (A andB) disposed so as to be spaced apart from each other have been set, moves an object () for designating operation for each of the operation reference units (A andB) between the operation reference units (A andB) while displaying thereof, and controls display of the object () so that the movement path of the object () changes according to a predetermined condition.

Game system, control method of controlling computer, and a storage medium storing a computer program

Disclosed is a game system provided with a monitor for displaying and outputting a game screen, a touch panel overlaid upon the monitor, and an external storage device for storing sequence data wherein operation time periods of the touch panel during a game are described. The sequence data includes an object corresponding to a specific operation time period for which the time interval between the following operation time period is to be less than a predetermined value, and display start information for setting a display start time period which is earlier than the following operation time period. In addition, the game system, on the basis of the sequence data, associates a second object separate from a first object corresponding to the following operation time period with the specific operation time period to cause display to start earlier than the following operation time period.

Game system and control method of controlling computer used thereof

A game system includes: a display device that displays a screen of a game; and partial information presenting device that causes the display device to display a part of customization information of which setting is to be performed by a player on the game by utilizing waiting time of the game, and wherein the partial information presenting device varies a display range which is to be displayed at the display device as a part of the customization information in accordance with customization time allocated to setting of the customization information among the waiting time of the game so that the amount of the customization information included in the display range is increased when the customization time is long and is decreased when the customization time is short.
