Abstract
Upon receiving first operation information indicating a first operation member to which an operation input has been made, an information processing apparatus changes, based on correspondence information, the first operation information to second operation information indicating a second operation member associated with the first operation member indicated by the first operation information and outputs the second operation information to the processing for the game.
Claims14
A non-transitory computer readable recording medium which records a program that causes a computer connected to a processor which is able to execute processing for a game to execute processes comprising:
- acquiring information indicating a genre of a first game for which processing is executed by the processor;
- acquiring correspondence information indicating a correspondence between information on a first operation member that is pre-defined to accept an operation input for an action provided for a second game of a same genre as a genre of the first game for which the processing is executed and information on a second operation member that is pre-defined to accept an operation input for the action in the executed processing for the first game;
- receiving first operation information indicating the first operation member to which an operation input has been made;
- and
- changing, based on the correspondence information, the first operation information to second operation information indicating the second operation member associated with the first operation member indicated by the first operation information and outputting the second operation information to the processor,
- wherein a common user interface, which includes the first operation member and the second operation member, is used for both of the first game and the second game, and
- different operation members are pre-defined between at least a part of common actions provided for the first game and the second game.
