Prompt

MODEL: Seele01-Flash
Please use Three.js to generate a **mobile-first game** with the theme "**Helicopter Game: Neon Remastered**". Please read the following detailed game design requirements first, and then generate the code accordingly: ### 1. Assets & Environment * **Visual Style**: A "Retro-Futuristic" or "Synthwave" aesthetic blending low-poly 3D with 2D arcade elements. The background should be a deep void (black/dark grey) to make the neon elements pop. * **Player Character (Helicopter)**: A sleek, low-poly 3D helicopter model (use simple `BoxGeometry` and `CylinderGeometry` combinations if an external model isn't loaded). It must have a spinning main rotor and tail rotor. The body should be white/metallic, and the tail should emit a "smoke" trail using a simple `Points` particle system (cyan/teal color). * **Environment (The Tunnel)**: The game is a side-scrolling endless runner. Generate jagged "Ceiling" and "Floor" terrains that continuously scroll left. Spawn glowing "Obstacle Blocks" (Neon Green `MeshBasicMaterial`) at random heights in the middle of the path. * **Camera**: Use a `PerspectiveCamera` positioned to the side (profile view) but slightly angled to show 3D depth (2.5D view). The camera must follow the helicopter's X-axis movement (or the world moves, and camera stays static). * **Post-Processing (Optional but preferred)**: If performant, add a slight "Bloom" effect to the neon green obstacles and the helicopter's trail. * **Performance**: Use `InstancedMesh` for the repetitive obstacle blocks to reduce draw calls. Implement object pooling for the smoke particles. ### 2. Audio Requirements * **BGM**: A driving, repetitive 8-bit or Synthwave bassline that increases in tempo as the game speed increases. * **SFX - Rotor**: A continuous "chopper" sound that loops. Pitch should slightly increase when the player is touching the screen (thrusting). * **SFX - Crash**: A harsh, retro "crushed noise" or explosion sound when hitting a wall. * **SFX - Score**: A subtle digital "ping" every 100 meters traveled. ### 3. Gameplay Loop * **Core Mechanic**: The helicopter has constant forward velocity (or the world moves backwards). Gravity constantly pulls the helicopter down ($y$-axis). * **Thrust Mechanic**: Holding input applies upward force (acceleration) against gravity. Releasing input allows gravity to take over. * **Difficulty Curve**: The forward scrolling speed increases gradually over time, requiring faster reaction times. The gap between the ceiling and floor should narrow slightly as distance increases. * **Collision Logic**: Use simple AABB (Axis-Aligned Bounding Box) collision detection. If the helicopter mesh intersects with the Ceiling, Floor, or any Green Obstacle Block, the game ends immediately. * **Scoring**: Score is based on distance survived. High score is saved to `localStorage`. ### 4. Mobile Controls & Interaction * **Control Scheme**: Single-input mechanic. * **Touch Start / Mouse Down**: Engage thrusters (fly up). * **Touch End / Mouse Up**: Disengage thrusters (fall down). * **Orientation**: Force **Landscape Mode** design within the canvas logic (if the user is in portrait, scale the camera FOV to ensure the player can see enough obstacles ahead). * **UI Overlay**: * **In-Game**: Minimalist HUD. Distance counter in the top-left (Retro Pixel Font). * **Start/Game Over Screen**: A semi-transparent overlay with a CRT Scanline effect (CSS overlay). Large "TAP TO START" or "CRASHED - TAP TO RETRY" button. * **Haptic Feedback**: Trigger `navigator.vibrate(200)` on collision/death for immediate tactile feedback. * **Safety**: Prevent default browser behaviors (scrolling/zooming) on `touchstart` and `touchmove` events to ensure smooth gameplay. Do not ask for clarification. Do not request confirmation. Directly execute the generation task based on the given instructions.

Game Introduction

About the Game

Helicopter Game is the classic arcade experience that defined precision gaming. With a stellar 4.6/5 rating , this timeless challenge puts your reflexes and patience to the ultimate test. Think flying is easy? Think again! This game will humble even the most confident pilots as you battle gravity, navigate tight spaces, and fight to survive increasingly impossible obstacle courses.

This isn't just another casual game – it's a rite of passage for gamers who dare to test their limits. Every pixel matters, every millisecond counts, and every mistake could end your run instantly.

Core Features

Legendary Difficulty

Helicopter Game is famous for its unforgiving gameplay that separates casual players from true gaming masters. The difficulty curve is steep and relentless, making every successful run a genuine achievement.

Perfect Controls

Simple yet precise controls using just your mouse. Click to rise, release to fall – but mastering the timing takes dedication and skill.

Progressive Challenge

Each level becomes faster, more complex, and more demanding. What starts as manageable quickly evolves into heart-pounding, split-second decision making.

Instant Gameplay

  • Completely Free : No downloads, no registration required
  • Cross-Platform : Works perfectly on computers and mobile devices
  • HTML5 Technology : Smooth performance in any modern browser
  • All Ages : Simple concept accessible to everyone, challenging to master

Competitive Spirit

Compare your high scores with friends and see who can survive the longest. Watch as hours of careful progress get beaten in minutes by more skilled players – it's both frustrating and addictive!

Game Mechanics

The concept is deceptively simple: guide your helicopter through a series of obstacles without crashing. However, the execution requires:

  • Perfect Timing : Master the rhythm of rise and fall
  • Spatial Awareness : Navigate through increasingly narrow passages
  • Steady Nerves : Maintain composure as speed increases
  • Quick Reflexes : React instantly to changing obstacles
  • Pattern Recognition : Learn and adapt to obstacle layouts

Operation Guide

Controls are elegantly simple:

  • Left Mouse Button : Click and hold to make the helicopter rise
  • Release Mouse : Let the helicopter fall naturally
  • Mouse Movement : Position your cursor for optimal control

Success Strategy: - Start slow to learn the physics - Focus on smooth, controlled movements - Don't panic when speed increases - Watch for upcoming obstacles - Practice patience – rushing leads to crashes

Pro Tips: - Use short, controlled clicks rather than holding the button - Keep your cursor in the center of the screen - Practice breathing steadily to maintain focus - Learn from each crash to improve your technique
