Patent number: 11911703Abstract: A computer is configured to receive an input operation from a distribution user and connect to game circuitry that manages progress of a game, and to video distribution circuitry. The computer sends, to the video distribution circuitry, display control data for displaying, on a viewing user device, a video of the game. The computer receives, from the game circuitry, gift data that is based on a gift output request sent from the viewing user device. The computer displays a gift that is based on the gift data. An image corresponding to consecutive behaviors of the game is displayed on the screen of the game, when a specified command included in game operation data sent from a user device used by any of the users participating in the game and the gift output request sent from the viewing user device cause the consecutive behaviors to be established.Type: GrantFiled: November 19, 2021Date of Patent: February 27, 2024Assignee: GREE, INC.Inventor: Yosuke Kanaya
