Prompt

MODEL: Seele01-Flash
Please use Three.js to generate a **mobile-first game** with the theme "**Achilles: Spartan Fury**". Please read the following detailed game design requirements first, and then generate the code accordingly: ### 1. Assets & Environment * **Visual Style:** A **2.5D Side-Scrolling Action** game. Use a fixed side-view camera (PerspectiveCamera) that tracks the player on the X-axis. The art style should be **Low-Poly with Toon Shading (Cel-shading)** to mimic the classic Flash game's aesthetic while maintaining mobile performance. * **Core Assets:** * **Player (Achilles):** A low-poly Spartan warrior model with a Corinthian helmet, round shield, and spear/sword. Equip a red cape with simple cloth physics (or rigid body hinge). * **Enemies:** Trojan soldiers with varying equipment (Spearmen, Swordsmen). Use **InstancedMesh** for rendering multiple enemies to optimize draw calls. * **Environment:** Ancient Greek battlefield. Foreground: Sandy ground with scattered broken weapons. Background: Parallax scrolling layers featuring distant temples, mountains, and a sunset sky (orange/red palette). * **Visual Effects (VFX):** * **Blood:** Low-poly red cubes or simple particle sprites emitting on hit (Crucial for the "Bloody" tag). * **Hit Flash:** White flash on weapon impact. * **Ragdoll:** If possible using a physics engine (like Cannon.js), enable simple ragdoll physics for dead enemies to replicate the "classic" feel. ### 2. Audio Requirements * **BGM:** Fast-paced, percussion-heavy orchestral war music (taiko drums, brass swells) to induce adrenaline. * **Sound Effects (SFX):** * **UI:** Stone grinding sound for button clicks. * **Combat:** Sharp metallic "clangs" for sword blocks. "Whoosh" sounds for swings. Heavy "Thud" for kicks. Wet squelching sounds for successful hits (reflecting the "Bloody" rating). * **Voice:** Grunts for effort, screams for death. ### 3. Gameplay Loop * **Core Mechanic:** Side-scrolling Hack and Slash. The player moves right, clearing waves of enemies to progress. * **Combat Logic:** * **Weapon Triangle:** Spear (Long reach, slow) vs. Sword (Short reach, fast). * **Shield/Block:** Holding the Block button reduces damage to 0 but drains a "Stamina" bar. * **The Kick:** A dedicated Kick action is essential. It deals low damage but knocks enemies back or breaks their guard (stun). * **Weapon Pickup:** Enemies drop weapons on death. The player can drop their current weapon and pick up a new one (e.g., swapping a broken spear for a fresh sword). * **Win/Loss:** * **Win:** Defeat the Boss at the end of the level or survive the enemy wave timer. * **Loss:** Player HP reaches 0. * **Unique Death:** "Heel Strike" - A rare critical hit mechanic where Achilles takes double damage from behind. ### 4. Mobile Controls & Interaction * **Layout (Landscape Orientation):** * **Left Zone:** Dynamic Virtual Joystick for movement (Left/Right run, Up to Jump/Crouch). * **Right Zone (Action Cluster):** * **Main Button (Large):** Attack (Sword Icon). * **Secondary Button (Medium):** Kick (Boot Icon). * **Tertiary Button (Small):** Block / Interact. *Context Sensitivity:* This button functions as "Block" normally, but changes icon/function to "Pick Up" when standing over a dropped weapon. * **Feedback:** * Implement **Screen Shake** on heavy hits. * Trigger `navigator.vibrate(50)` on successful hits or taking damage. * **UI:** Minimalist HUD. * Top Left: Health Bar (Red) and Stamina Bar (Green). * Top Right: Kill Count / Score. * Touch targets must be at least 44x44 pixels for accessibility. Do not ask for clarification. Do not request confirmation. Directly execute the generation task based on the given instructions.
