Abstract:
1. A game apparatus for allowing a first speaker provided in an input device and a second speaker provided outside the input device to generate a sound, the game apparatus comprising a processing unit executing an executable program stored on a non-transitory, tangible storage medium readable by the processing unit, wherein the executable program causes the processing unit in the game apparatus to perform: a determination step to determine whether or not a predetermined first condition is fulfilled; a first sound control step to cause the second speaker to generate a sound when the first condition is fulfilled; a moving control step to move an object in a virtual game space in response to the fulfillment of the first condition, wherein the movement of the object immediately after the fulfillment of the first condition differs from a movement of the object immediately prior to the fulfillment of the first condition; a second sound control step to cause the first speaker to generate a sound when a predetermined second condition regarding a position of the object is fulfilled as a result of the object being moved by the moving control step; and display control step for causing a display device to display the game space, wherein the display device shows the object moving in the moving control step after the first condition is fulfilled and before the second sound control step.
