Abstract

An image creating apparatus, adapted to create an image constituted by of a plurality of dots for each of a plurality of background scenes that are visually perceived as viewed in different two or more directions from a certain view point existing in a three-dimensional space, is provided with a memory which stores polygon image data composed of three-dimensional coordinate data and texture data for each of a plurality of polygons representative of an object, color data for each dot of the plurality of background scenes and depth data for each dot of the plurality of background scenes. In converting the polygon image data into dot image data, the color data and the depth data are, for each dot, written in the memory on the basis of the texture data and the three-dimensional coordinate data, respectively.
