COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM STORING GAME PROGRAM, AND GAME APPARATUS
First Claim
1. A computer-readable storage medium for storing a game program to be executed by a computer of a game apparatus comprising:
- an input device having an input plane on which an input operation is performed; and
a microphone, the game program causing the computer to perform;
an input position obtaining step of obtaining, from the input device, an input position on which the input operation has been performed;
a first operation sound obtaining step of obtaining, from the microphone, an operation sound occurring due to the input operation; and
a game process step of performing a game process by using the input position obtained at the input position obtaining step and the operation sound obtained at the first operation sound obtaining step.

Abstract
A game apparatus detects an input position, on an input plane, at which an input operation has been performed. The game apparatus also detects an operation sound that occurs due to the input operation performed on the input plane. The game apparatus evaluates the detected operation sound, and obtains a result of the evaluation (e.g., volume of the operation sound). The game apparatus performs game processing by using the detected input position and the result of the evaluation. This enables the game apparatus to perform more complex processing by using a touch operation as input information, and allows a player to provide more complex instructions based on the touch operation.
