Abstract
A method including defining a virtual space. The virtual space contains a first player character associated with a first user, a second player character associated with a second user, and virtual points of view for defining field-of-view images to be provided to a first HMD associated with the first user and to a second HMD associated with the second user. The method includes identifying first and second parts of the second player character. The method includes moving the first part in synchronization with a detected movement of the second user. The method includes displaying the second part in connection with a detected movement of the first part. The method includes setting a first transparency rate of the first part and a second transparency rate of the second part. A transparency rate of at least a portion of the second part is greater than the transparency rate of the first part.
