Abstract
A method for annotating a video game includes recording a first session of the video game including first gameplay output and first game state data, receiving an annotation including one or more of video, audio, graphics, text, or highlighting, associating the annotation with a selected point in the video game, the selected point corresponding to a selected portion of the first game state data, and presenting the annotation, in response to a triggering condition, at the selected point in the video game in a second session thereof, the second session including second gameplay output and second game state data.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method comprising:
- receiving sensor data in association with a first session of a video game;
- determining, based at least in part on the sensor data, a point associated with a virtual environment of the video game and an annotation for insertion at the point;
- generating the annotation;
- and
- presenting the annotation at the point associated with the virtual environment in a second session of the video game.
One or more non-transitory computer-readable media comprising computer-executable instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of an electronic device, cause the electronic device to perform operations comprising:
- receiving sensor data in association with a first session of a video game;
- determining, based at least in part on the sensor data, a point associated with a virtual environment of the video game and an annotation for insertion at the point;
- generating the annotation;
- and
- presenting the annotation at the point associated with the virtual environment in a second session of the video game.
A system comprising:
- a memory comprising computer-executable instructions;
- and
- a processor configured to access the memory and execute the computer-executable instructions to perform operations comprising:
- receiving sensor data in association with a first session of a video game;
- determining, based at least in part on the sensor data, a point associated with a virtual environment of the video game and an annotation for insertion at the point;
- generating the annotation;
- and
- presenting the annotation at the point associated with the virtual environment in a second session of the video game.
