Prompt

MODEL: Seele01-Flash
Please use Three.js to generate a **mobile-first game** with the theme "**Sketchful 3D: Mobile Art Studio**". Please read the following detailed game design requirements first, and then generate the code accordingly: ### 1. Assets & Environment * **Visual Style**: A clean, cozy, low-poly 3D "Art Studio" environment. The background should be soft pastel colors (light blue or cream) to reduce eye strain. * **Central Prop**: The main focus is a 3D Easel or Whiteboard placed in the center of the screen. This is the drawing surface. * **Characters**: Represent other players (simulated bots) as floating 3D geometric avatars (spheres, cubes) bobbing gently around the easel, "watching" the player draw. * **Mobile Optimization**: Use a simple lighting setup (AmbientLight + one DirectionalLight) to keep frame rates high. Avoid complex shadows. Use `CanvasTexture` for the drawing board to allow performant real-time updates without excessive geometry generation. ### 2. Audio Requirements * **BGM**: A chill, Lo-Fi Hip Hop or smooth Bossa Nova track that loops seamlessly (relaxing "elevator music" vibe). * **Sound Effects (SFX)**: * **Drawing**: A realistic "marker squeak" or "chalk scratching" sound that plays only when the user's finger is moving on the canvas. * **UI**: Soft "pop" sounds for chat messages appearing. * **Game State**: A "ticking clock" sound for the last 10 seconds. A cheerful "ding-dong" chord when a correct guess is made. ### 3. Gameplay Loop * **Simulation Mode**: Since this is a client-side generation, create a simulated single-player loop: 1. **Word Select**: The game prompts the user to choose between 3 simple words (e.g., "Tree", "Car", "Cat"). 2. **Drawing Phase**: The user has 30 seconds to draw on the 3D Easel. 3. **Bot Guesses**: While the player draws, the "Bot Avatars" should automatically spawn text bubbles (HTML overlay) with random guesses. If the player draws for more than 5 seconds, one bot should "guess" the correct word to trigger a win state. * **Mechanics**: The drawing needs to be smooth. It should map 2D screen coordinates to the UV coordinates of the 3D board texture. ### 4. Mobile Controls & Interaction * **Screen Orientation**: **Landscape Mode** is mandatory to maximize drawing space and accommodate the chat UI on the side. * **Drawing Controls**: * Implement `touchstart` and `touchmove` event listeners. * Use a `Raycaster` to detect where the finger intersects with the 3D Easel plane. * Draw lines on the underlying `<canvas>` texture based on these intersection points. * **Brush Sensitivity**: Ensure the drawing line is thick enough to be visible on small mobile screens. * **UI Layout**: * **Left Side**: Vertical toolbar with 5 large color buttons (Red, Blue, Green, Black, Eraser). Button size: min 44x44px. * **Right Side**: A semi-transparent chat overlay showing the "Bot Guesses". * **Top**: Timer bar and Current Word. * **Feedback**: Add a subtle screen shake or particle burst when the correct word is guessed. Do not ask for clarification. Do not request confirmation. Directly execute the generation task based on the given instructions.
