Abstract

See full text

Operations such as those relating to selecting and moving multiple objects displayed in a game device can be provided to a player, using an ordinary pointing input device. The operations are performed by a method including the steps of displaying objects on a display unit; detecting a pointing status to recognize a state of a presence/absence of pointing and a pointing commencement position; determining whether or not the pointing commencement position is in an object region in a case where pointing is judged to be being executed from a detection result in the pointing status detection step by a pointing continuation determination unit; storing in a storage unit, as an active object, the object that undergoes pointing while the pointing continuation determination is being performed; and operating the active object by an object operational input unit while the pointing continuation determination is being performed.
