Storage medium storing game program, game apparatus and game control method
First Claim
1. A storage medium storing a game program for a game apparatus comprising a display means and a touch panel provided in relation to the display means, wherein said game program allows a processor of said game apparatus to execute:
- a touch input detection step of detecting a touch input;
a touch timing control step of processing a first timing with which the touch input is to be performed;
a touch image display step of generating a touch image to be touched by a player and displaying the same on said display means;
a touch timing detection step of detecting a second timing for the touch input detected in said touch input detection step;
a timing coincidence degree detection step of detecting a degree of coincidence of said first timing and said second timing;
a touch position detection step of detecting whether or not a touch position indicated by said touch input represents a position to touch; and
a touch evaluation step of evaluating the touch input according to result of detection in said timing coincidence degree detection step and result of detection in said touch position detection step.

Abstract
A game apparatus includes an LCD, and a game screen is displayed on the LCD. A touch panel is provided on the LCD. The game screen presents a marker image so as to be variable in position in time with performance of music, and also presents a timer circle image for indicating touch timing for the marker image. A player needs to touch a marker image to be touched with precise timing, listening to the music or watching the timer circle image. The player'"'"'s touch is evaluated on the basis of the touch timing and the touch position. If the touch is evaluated as a failure, the game screen is shaken.
