Information processing apparatus and storage medium for storing information processing program

摘要

An input coordinate point on the display surface of a display device is obtained from a pointing device. Based on the input coordinate point, a moving velocity is set, and based on the moving velocity, an object is moved to a position in the virtual space, the position corresponding to the input coordinate point. The input coordinate point may belong to different areas of the display surface and the moving velocity is determined based on the area where the input coordinate point belongs. Then, the display device is caused to display the virtual space within the display area.

1. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having stored therein an information processing program to be executed by a computer of an information processing apparatus for displaying a virtual space on a display device, obtaining an input coordinate point based on an output from a pointing device, which output is based on an operation performed by a user, and moving an object in the virtual space in accordance with the input coordinate point, the information processing program causing the computer to perform:
obtaining the input coordinate point from the pointing device; setting a plurality of areas in a range that allows an input of the input coordinate point, and setting a moving velocity of the object in accordance with, among the plurality of areas, an area to which the input coordinate point corresponding to an operation performed by the user belongs; moving the object in accordance with the moving velocity; and displaying on the display device the virtual space in which the object is placed, wherein the moving velocity is set in accordance with, among the plurality of areas, an area to which a single position indicated by the input coordinate point belongs.
