Prompt

MODEL: Seele01-Flash
Please use Three.js to generate a **mobile-first game** with the theme "Paint War". Please read the following detailed game design requirements first, and then generate the code accordingly: ### 1. Assets & Environment * **Visual Style**: High-saturation, "Splatoon-like" cartoon aesthetic. Use low-poly models with flat shading or toon shaders to ensure high FPS on mobile devices. * **Characters**: Create 4 distinct character entities (1 Player, 3 AI Bots). Characters should be stylized "skaters" wearing spray-tank backpacks. * **Colors**: Assign a unique vibrant neon color to each: Electric Blue (Player), Hot Pink, Lime Green, and Bright Yellow (Bots). * **Arena**: A clean, bright white or light gray grid-based skate park environment. It should contain simple obstacles (cubes, cylinders) that block movement. * **Painting Mechanic (Tech Spec)**: Implement a performant texture-painting system. The floor mesh must dynamically update its texture based on character position. * *Optimization*: Use a `CanvasTexture` or an off-screen `RenderTarget` approach to handle the "splatting" logic efficiently without creating thousands of individual mesh decals. * **Camera**: A top-down isometric view (Ortho or Perspective) that follows the player smoothly, ensuring the immediate surrounding area is visible. ### 2. Audio Requirements * **BGM**: Fast-paced, high-energy Funk or Electro-Pop track (looping) to match the 45-second round intensity. * **Sound Effects (SFX)**: * **Movement**: A continuous low-hum rolling sound when moving (skating sound). * **Painting**: A "hissing" spray can sound mixed with wet "squish" sounds when changing direction or dashing. * **UI**: A loud air-horn or whistle sound for "Start" and "Finish". A ticking clock sound for the last 5 seconds. ### 3. Gameplay Loop * **Match Setup**: The game initializes a 45-second countdown timer. The player and 3 bots spawn at four corners of the map. * **Core Action**: * Characters move automatically forward or controlled via joystick. * Characters leave a permanent trail of their team's color on the floor wherever they move. * Overwriting: Moving over an opponent's color replaces it with your own color. * **Power-up (Optional)**: Random "Paint Bucket" items appear; collecting one creates a large splash radius, instantly coloring a 3-unit radius circle. * **Win Condition**: When the timer hits 0, the game calculates the percentage of the floor covered by each color. The entity with the highest percentage wins. * **AI Behavior**: Bots should wander randomly but steer away from walls and bias towards unpainted areas or opponent areas. ### 4. Mobile Controls & Interaction * **Orientation**: **Landscape Mode** (to maximize horizontal visibility of the arena). * **Control Scheme**: **Virtual Joystick**. Place a dynamic virtual joystick on the bottom-left or bottom-right of the screen (detects touch start). * *Feel*: The movement should have slight inertia/drift to simulate roller skating, rather than instant stops. * **UI Layout**: * **Top Center**: Large, bold Countdown Timer. * **Top Bar**: A horizontal progress bar divided into 4 colors showing real-time territory control percentages. * **End Screen**: A modal pop-up showing the winner with a large "Replay" button (minimum touch target 60x60px). * **Haptic Feedback**: Trigger a short vibration (using `navigator.vibrate`) when the player bumps into an obstacle or another player. Do not ask for clarification. Do not request confirmation. Directly execute the generation task based on the given instructions.
