Publication number: 20170368454Abstract: Systems, methods and media for controlling online video games are disclosed. For example, a controller system can receive first data associated with a game played at a player platform. Second data can be generated based on the first data, where the second data enables a viewer platform to provide a game participation feature(s) associated with the game. The second data can be transmitted from the controller system to the viewer platform. Third data based on the second data can be received at the controller system, where the third data is based on an interaction of a viewer with the game participation feature(s). Fourth data can be generated based on the third data, where the fourth data enables the player platform to alter the game based on the interaction of the viewer with the game participation feature(s). The fourth data can be transmitted from the controller system to the player platform.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 21, 2017Publication date: December 28, 2017Inventors: Seth John SIVAK, Jesse David KURLANCHEEK, Damon Brian IANNUZZELLI, William Daniel OGLES, Matthew Devon RILEY, Luke PETRE, Joel Frederick MUKAI

Patent number: 9623323Abstract: Individual participants in a multi-participant collaborative computing application may be sent intermittent updates of actions taken by other participants. These updates need not be sent to a participant's device until the participant has interacted with a specified object in the application. The participant's device may then be sent an update including object interactions of the other participants occurring since the participant's previous object interaction. The update may be used to periodically inform the participant of the actions taken by the other participants during the period between the participant's interactions.Type: GrantFiled: July 11, 2014Date of Patent: April 18, 2017Assignee: Zynga Inc.Inventors: Fareed Bhemaram-Mosavat, Jesse David Kurlancheek, William Daniel Ogles, Craig Anderson Lancaster, Seth John Sivak, Daniel O'Brien

Patent number: 8562444Abstract: Items may be transferred between participants in a multi-participant gaming application through an item sharing object. The item sharing object may be activated by a participant during game play. After activating the item sharing object, a state of the item sharing object may be determined. If the state indicates that a prior participant has left behind an item that is available, then the left behind item may be presented to the current participant activating the object. Alternatively, if no items are available, the processing device may present the current participant with a quest, the completion of which may result in the current participant leaving behind an item for a subsequent participant activating the item sharing object.Type: GrantFiled: September 2, 2011Date of Patent: October 22, 2013Assignee: Zynga Inc.Inventors: Jesse David Kurlancheek, Christine Trottier
