Competition video game machine, character movement control method in competition video game, and recording medium on which character movement control program is recorded

摘要

In a competition video game machine, the speed for moving a character is variable according to the operation timing. A controller's operation determining function 61 determines the on/off operation of a left trigger button 16f and a right trigger button 16g. An operation control function 62 controls the skater's operation according to the activation of the left trigger button 16f or the right trigger button 16g. The skater's operation is controlled to repeat the cycle, consisting of an acceleration warm-up operation period, an acceleration operating period, and a decelerating operation period, for the left foot and the right foot alternately. Each operation period lasts for a predetermined period and, when one operation period is finished, the operation is shifted to another operation period. If, however, either the left trigger button 16f or the right trigger button 16g is activated while the above cycle is in progress, the current cycle for the corresponding foot is fast-forwarded to immediately start the acceleration warm-up operation period of the subsequent cycle for the other foot.
