Prompt

MODEL: Seele01-Flash
Please use Three.js to generate a **mobile-first game** with the theme "Noob Hook". Please read the following detailed game design requirements first, and then generate the code accordingly: ### 1. Assets & Environment * **Visual Style**: Voxel-based "Minecraft" aesthetic (Low-poly). The world should feel composed of cubes. * **Character**: A "Noob" character constructed from simple box geometries (CubeGeometry). The character should have a "derpy" face texture (wide eyes, tongue out) similar to the reference image. * **Environment**: * **Background**: A vertical CSS gradient (Sky Blue `#6DD5FA` at the top to Purple `#2980B9` at the bottom) to simulate high altitude. * **Anchors**: Floating grey/stone voxel blocks that serve as grappling points. * **Obstacles**: Rotating saw blades (cylinder geometry with jagged textures) and static spikes. * **Goal**: A checkered flag or a golden block at the far right/top of the level. * **Mobile Optimization**: * Use `MeshLambertMaterial` or `MeshBasicMaterial` for lighting efficiency on mobile GPUs. * Implement object pooling for particles (e.g., coin collection effects) to prevent garbage collection stutter. * Camera: A 2D Orthographic camera or a Perspective camera with a fixed Z-depth to maintain a side-scrolling platformer view. ### 2. Audio Requirements * **BGM**: A loopable, upbeat, 8-bit chiptune track that sounds "goofy" and adventurous. * **Sound Effects (SFX)**: * **Hook Fire**: A retro "swish" or "zip" sound. * **Hook Connect**: A metallic "clink" or "thud" when hitting a block. * **Swing**: A looping wind sound that changes pitch based on velocity. * **Coin Collect**: A high-pitched standard arcade "ding". * **Collision/Fail**: A comedic "oof" or a cartoon spring sound. * **Win**: A short victory fanfare. ### 3. Gameplay Loop * **Physics Engine**: Integrate a physics library (like Cannon.js or Ammo.js). The character acts as a dynamic rigid body with pendulum physics. * **Core Mechanics**: 1. **Idle/Falling**: The character is subject to gravity. 2. **Hooking**: When the hook connects to an anchor block, a `PointToPointConstraint` (or Spring) is created between the character and the block. 3. **Swinging**: The character swings based on momentum. The rope length should ideally retract slightly to pull the player up. 4. **Releasing**: Breaking the connection converts angular momentum into linear velocity, launching the player forward. * **Collectibles**: Gold coins placed in arcs along ideal swing paths. Collecting them increments a score. * **Win/Loss**: * **Win**: Colliding with the finish block. * **Loss**: Colliding with a saw blade, spike, or falling below the screen bounds (y < -50). ### 4. Mobile Controls & Interaction * **Input Method**: "Drag-to-Aim, Release-to-Shoot" mechanism. * **Touch Start**: Pauses time slightly (bullet time) or slows physics to allow aiming. * **Touch Drag**: Draws a dotted trajectory line from the player, indicating the direction the hook will fire. * **Touch End**: Fires the hook raycast in the aimed direction. If it hits an anchor, the swing begins. * **UI Layout**: * **Orientation**: Landscape mode preferred, but responsive to Portrait. * **HUD**: A minimal coin counter in the top-left (44px margin) and a Pause button in the top-right. * **Restart Button**: Large, centered button appearing immediately upon death for quick "retry" loops (crucial for hyper-casual mobile retention). * **Feedback**: * **Haptics**: Trigger `navigator.vibrate(50)` when the hook connects and a heavier vibration when hitting an obstacle. * **Visual**: A "poof" particle effect when the hook connects or disconnects. Do not ask for clarification. Do not request confirmation. Directly execute the generation task based on the given instructions.
