Image generation system, program and information storage medium
First Claim
1. An image generation system which generates an image comprising:
- a memory which stores a program and data for generating an image; and
at least one processor which is connected to the memory and performs a processing for generating an image,wherein the processor comprises;
a game processing section which performs a game processing based on operation data from a control section, and performs a processing to terminate a game when a predetermined game termination condition is satisfied;
a parameter calculation section which calculates a parameter of a consumption item which is consumed as a game progresses at a predetermined rate of consumption based on the predetermined game termination condition; and
an image generation section which generates a game image based on a result of the game processing,wherein the predetermined game termination condition is a condition that, when satisfied, terminates the game;
wherein the predetermined game termination condition is at least one of a number of laps on a course corresponding to a maximum number of laps required by one game play, a time limit of a game corresponding to a time period measured from the start of the game to the termination of the game, or a setting of a game quota corresponding to a quota to be attained by a player in the game, andwherein the parameter calculation section increases the rate of change of the parameter of the consumption item, as the number of laps on the course is reduced, as the time limit of the game is shortened, or as the setting of the game quota is reduced.

Abstract
A parameter of a consumption item (fuel, life) consumed as a game progresses is calculated. When a setting of a game termination condition changes, a rate of change of the parameter of the consumption item is changed according to the change of the setting. The game termination condition is a condition relating to the number of laps on a course, a time limit of a game or a game quota. The rate of change of the parameter of the consumption item is increased as the number of laps on a course is reduced, as the time limit of a game is shortened, or as the game quota is reduced. When a value of the parameter of the consumption item becomes equal to zero as a game progresses, the movement or motion of an object is disabled. The parameter of the consumption item is changed from an initial value set by a player with the rate of change which has been specified based on the game termination condition set by the player.

6. A computer-readable information storage medium storing a program for generating an image, the program causing a computer to function as:
-
a game processing section which performs a game processing based on operation data from a control section, and performs a processing to terminate a game when a predetermined game termination condition is satisfied; a parameter calculation section which calculates a parameter of a consumption item which is consumed as a game progresses at a predetermined rate of consumption based on the predetermined game termination condition; and an image generation section which generates a game image based on a result of the game processing, wherein the predetermined game termination condition is a condition that, when satisfied, terminates the game; wherein the predetermined game termination condition is at least one of a number of laps on a course corresponding to a maximum number of laps required by one game play, a time limit of a game corresponding to a time period measured from the start of the game to the termination of the game, or a setting of a game quota corresponding to a quota to be attained by a player in the game, and wherein the parameter calculation section increases the rate of change of the parameter of the consumption item, as the number of laps on the course is reduced, as the time limit of the game is shortened, or as the setting of the game quota is reduced. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10)
