Method and apparatus for game development using correlation of time sequences and digital video data

摘要

The invention provides a method and apparatus for game development. On a first display, a branched time line structure including decision nodes is developed. On a second display, video images are viewed. According to the present invention, portions of the video images are correlated with portions of the branched time line structure so that upon simulated play, a game developer can move along the branched time line structure, taking alternate time paths when reaching decision nodes.
