Prompt

MODEL: Seele01-Flash
Please use Three.js to generate a **mobile-first game** with the theme "**Running Fred - Dungeon Escape**". Please read the following detailed game design requirements first, and then generate the code accordingly: ### 1. Assets & Environment * **Visual Style**: High-contrast "Cartoon Horror." Use vibrant colors (saturated reds, purples, and blues) against dark dungeon backgrounds. The style should be Low-poly but expressive. * **Character (Fred Proxy)**: Construct a protagonist using Three.js primitives that resembles "Fred": A pale skinned humanoid with a large head, bulging white eyes (spheres), and spiky red hair (cone/pyramids). The character should have a constant "running" animation and a "panicked" idle pose. * **Environment**: An endless or procedural dungeon corridor. * **Floors**: Dark grey stone textures with occasional gaps (pits). * **Walls**: High walls with torch brackets (orange point lights). * **Obstacles**: * *Spinning Saw Blades*: Silver metallic discs with jagged edges that move back and forth or rotate in place. * *Spikes*: Cones that protrude from the floor. * *Pendulums*: Large axes swinging from the ceiling. * **Performance**: Use `THREE.InstancedMesh` for repetitive floor tiles and wall segments to maintain 60FPS on mobile devices. Use simple shadow maps (one directional light source). ### 2. Audio Requirements * **BGM**: A fast-paced, frantic orchestral track. Think "comical panic" — fast violins and brass, similar to a cartoon chase scene. * **Sound Effects (SFX)**: * *Footsteps*: Rapid, slapstick-style running sounds on stone. * *Jump*: A comical "Woosh" or spring sound. * *Hazards*: Loud mechanical whirring for saw blades; metal swooshing for axes. * *Death*: A distinct "Splat" sound or a cartoonish scream when the player hits an obstacle. * *UI*: High-pitched clicks for button presses. ### 3. Gameplay Loop * **Core Mechanic**: An auto-runner (endless runner) viewed from a third-person perspective (camera follows behind and slightly above the character). * **Player Actions**: * **Steer**: Move left or right to avoid walls and static obstacles. * **Jump**: Leap over gaps and floor spikes. * **Wall Run (Optional Advanced)**: If the player hits a wall at an angle, they run along it briefly to avoid floor traps. * **Score System**: Score increases based on distance traveled. Collectible "Skullies" (floating gold skulls) add bonus points. * **Fail State**: Touching any trap (saw, spike, axe) or falling into a pit results in an immediate "Ragdoll" death or particle explosion (blood/dust) and a "Game Over" screen with a restart button. ### 4. Mobile Controls & Interaction * **Control Scheme (Touch optimized)**: * **Steering**: Use the device **Accelerometer (Tilt)** OR **Invisible Touch Zones** (Tap left side of screen to move left, right side to move right). *Prefer Touch Zones for better web compatibility.* * **Jumping**: **Swipe Up** anywhere on the screen. * **Screen Orientation**: Strictly **Portrait Mode** (Vertical) to emphasize the depth of the dungeon hallway and allow one-handed play. * **UI/UX**: * Start/Restart buttons must be large (minimum 60px height) and centered. * **Haptic Feedback**: Trigger `navigator.vibrate(200)` when the player dies/crashes. * **Visual Feedback**: Screen shake (camera jitter) upon death. Red vignette pulse when near a trap. Do not ask for clarification. Do not request confirmation. Directly execute the generation task based on the given instructions.
