Game object advances for the 3D printing entertainment industry

An additive manufacturing system enabling a user to manufacture a three-dimensional object at least in part as entertainment, the additive manufacturing system comprised of one or more three-dimensional printers, one or more input interfaces, one or more non-transitory computer storage mediums, and one or more computer processors, the additive manufacturing system configured to operate in conjunction with one or more electronic games, the additive manufacturing system configured to perform a process as follows:

• (a) detecting, by at least one of the one or more input interfaces, one or more game-related inputs caused, at least in part, by one or more predetermined game task results being attained by the user in the one or more electronic games, the one or more predetermined game task results being attained instead of one or more alternative game task results;
• and
• (b) performing, by at least one of the one or more computer processors, at least one game-related operation in response to the detecting of the one or more game-related inputs, the at least one game-related operation retrieving data from at least one of the one or more non-transitory computer storage mediums, the data including at least one determined construction configuration used to build one or more game-related portions of the three-dimensional object, the at least one game-related operation implementing at least one of the one or more three-dimensional printers to use one or more additive manufacturing materials to build the one or more game-related portions of the three-dimensional object using the at least one determined construction configuration instead of at least one alternative construction configuration;
• (c) wherein the finished three-dimensional object is comprised of the one or more game-related portions, and wherein the building of the one or more game-related portions of the three-dimensional object through the at least one game-related operation includes using the at least one determined construction configuration due, at least in part, to the attaining by the user of the one or more predetermined game task results instead of the one or more alternative game task results.

A method for a user to manufacture a three-dimensional object at least in part as entertainment, the three-dimensional object constructed through an additive manufacturing system, the additive manufacturing system comprised of a three-dimensional printer, one or more input interfaces, a non-transitory computer storage medium, and a computer processor, the additive manufacturing system configured to operate in conjunction with one or more game-related events, the method comprising:

• (a) detecting, by at least one of the one or more input interfaces, one or more game-related inputs caused, at least in part, by one or more predetermined game task results being attained by the user in the one or more game-related events;
• and
• (b) performing, by the computer processor, at least one game-related operation in response to the detecting of the one or more game-related inputs, the at least one game-related operation retrieving data from the non-transitory computer storage medium, the data including at least one determined construction configuration used to build one or more game-related portions of the three-dimensional object, the at least one game-related operation implementing the three-dimensional printer to use one or more additive manufacturing materials to build the one or more game-related portions of the three-dimensional object using the at least one determined construction configuration;
• (c) wherein the finished three-dimensional object is comprised of the one or more game-related portions, and wherein the building of the one or more game-related portions of the three-dimensional object through the at least one game-related operation includes using the at least one determined construction configuration due, at least in part, to the attaining by the user of the one or more predetermined game task results.
