Patent ID: 8207970

Claim:
A non-transitory storage medium having an object control program of an information processing apparatus that displays on a display an object to be generated and moved according to an input from an input, wherein the object control program causes a processor of the information processing apparatus to perform: detecting coordinates inputted from the input; determining whether a first condition is satisfied, based on a detection result obtained wherein the first condition is a transition from a state in which there is no detection to a state in which there is detection; determining, as object generation coordinates, coordinates detected when the first condition is determined to be satisfied; generating the object in the determined object generation coordinates; controlling a movement of the object based on continuous detection results after the object generation coordinates; determining whether a second condition satisfied, based on at least one set of coordinates which are continuously detected after the first condition is determined to be satisfied, wherein the second condition is a transition from the state in which there is detection to a state in which there is no detection; and starting movement of the generated object when the second condition is determined to be satisfied.
