摘要

A game machine capable of preferably rendering "the extent of the field of view" of a player in a sport game. A filed-of-view setting section (64) sets the field-of-view area of a player character under control according to the position and orientation of the player character under control. A pass teammate seek area setting section (74) sets a pass teammate seek area according to the position of the player character and the direction specified by a pass direction instruction. On receiving a pass instruction, a pass control section (68) determines whether or not a moving object character is moved in the direction determined according to the position of a teammate player character selected from the teammate player characters present in the pass teammate seek area or in the direction specified by the pass direction instruction on the basis of the result of judgment whether or not one or more teammate player characters are present in the field-of-view area of the player character under control.
