An image generation system includes an object space setting section, a character control section, a virtual camera control section, an inter-camera distance setting section that sets an inter-camera distance based on at least one of position information, direction information, and moving state information about the character or the virtual camera, the inter-camera distance being a distance between a left-eye virtual camera and a right-eye virtual camera for generating a stereoscopic image, and an image generation section that generates a left-eye image and a right-eye image, the left-eye image being an image viewed from the left-eye virtual camera in an object space, and the right-eye image being an image viewed from the right-eye virtual camera in the object space.
