MODEL: Seele01-Flash
Please use Three.js to generate a **mobile-first game** with the theme "Hex Wars". Please read the following detailed game design requirements first, and then generate the code accordingly: ### 1. Assets & Environment * **Visual Style**: "Neon Cyberpunk Minimalist" style (Tron-inspired). High contrast with a black background and bright, glowing neon colors. * **Player/Enemy Models**: * Use simple 3D Primitives (`THREE.BoxGeometry`). * **The Body**: A black cube. * **The Turret**: A smaller rectangular prism protruding from the front. * **Styling**: Use `THREE.LineSegments` with `THREE.EdgesGeometry` to create glowing wireframe outlines around the black cubes. * **Color Coding**: Player outline is Green (`0x00ff00`); Enemies are Red (`0xff0000`). * **Environment**: A large, dark planar floor with a repeating **Hexagonal Grid pattern** texture. The grid lines should be a subtle grey. * **Post-Processing**: Implement `EffectComposer` with `UnrealBloomPass` to make the neon outlines and projectiles glow intensely. * **Performance**: Use instanced mesh for projectiles if possible, or simple object pooling. Keep geometry complexity very low (low-poly primitives) to ensure 60FPS on mobile browsers. ### 2. Audio Requirements * **BGM**: A fast-paced, driving **Synthwave/Techno** track with a heavy bassline to induce tension. * **Sound Effects (SFX)**: * **Shooting**: High-pitched digital "Laser Zap" or "Blaster" sounds. * **Impact/Damage**: A digital "Crunch" or static noise. * **Explosion**: A synthesized boom with a decaying echo. * **Gem Pickup**: A sharp, positive digital chime (ascending arpeggio). ### 3. Gameplay Loop * **Core Mechanics**: A "Free-For-All" Tank Shooter (IO style). * **Objective**: Survive as long as possible and destroy AI bots. * **Combat Logic**: * Projectiles travel in a straight line. * Upon collision with a tank, reduce Health. * If Health <= 0, the tank explodes into particle debris. * **Loot System**: Destroyed enemies drop "Gems" (glowing icosahedrons). Collecting gems restores 20% HP and increases the player's score/size slightly. * **AI Behavior**: Simulates an IO game environment. Bots spawn randomly, wander, and when the player is within range, they turn to aim and fire automatically. ### 4. Mobile Controls & Interaction * **Control Scheme**: **Twin-Stick Shooter Layout**. * **Left Virtual Joystick**: Controls tank movement (forward/backward/rotation or strafing). * **Right Virtual Joystick**: Controls turret aiming. Holding the stick creates a shooting angle; releasing or holding at max extension triggers auto-fire. * **Camera**: Top-down Orthographic or high-angle Perspective camera. It must smoothly follow the player tank with a slight dampening effect. * **UI/HUD**: * **Health Bars**: Floating billboards above every tank (Player and Enemy). Green bar for HP, White text for Name. * **Score**: Top-center of the screen (large font). * **Touch Feedback**: * **Visual Shake**: Screen shake effect when the player takes damage or destroys an enemy. * **Damage Indicator**: Flash the screen edge red when low on health. Do not ask for clarification. Do not request confirmation. Directly execute the generation task based on the given instructions.
