Prompt

MODEL: Seele01-Flash
Please use Three.js to generate a **mobile-first game** with the theme "**Slingshot Santa 3D**". Please read the following detailed game design requirements first, and then generate the code accordingly: ### 1. Assets & Environment * **Visual Style**: Low-poly, "Toon-shaded" 3D art style. Bright, saturated colors to emphasize the "Funny" and "Cute" tags. * **Main Character (Santa)**: A round, physics-based sphere or capsule collider wrapped in a low-poly Santa model. He should act like a ragdoll or a tumbling object once launched. * **The Launcher**: A wooden medieval-style catapult (not a slingshot, despite the name) situated on a starting platform. Two small, low-poly Elves standing next to it. * **The World**: An infinite scrolling winter landscape. * **Ground**: White snow with occasional ice patches (low friction) and deep snow patches (high friction). * **Hazards**: "Treacherous Ravines" (gaps in the terrain) that Santa must fly over. If he lands in one, the run ends immediately. * **Scenery**: Low-poly pine trees, rocks, and snowmen scattered in the background (use InstancedMesh for performance). * **Sky**: Gradient blue sky with simple floating clouds. * **Performance**: Strictly limit polygon count. Use simple geometries for the environment. Shadows should be baked or limited to the main character only. ### 2. Audio Requirements * **BGM**: A comedic, up-tempo version of "Jingle Bells" or general winter holiday music. * **SFX**: * **Interaction**: A "winding up" ratchet sound as the elves push the catapult. * **Launch**: A loud "BOING" or swoosh sound. * **Santa Vocals**: A screaming "Ho Ho Hoooooo!" that fades with distance, and a grunt/"Oof!" upon impact. * **Environment**: Wind noise while in mid-air; soft thuds when bouncing on snow. ### 3. Gameplay Loop * **Phase 1: Power Up (The Push)** * The camera focuses on the catapult. * An oscillating "Power Meter" bar appears on the UI. * The elves animate (or shake) as if pushing the catapult arm down. * **Phase 2: The Launch** * The player taps the screen to lock the Power Meter. * The catapult releases based on the locked power value (force magnitude). * Santa is ejected into the air with a physics impulse. * **Phase 3: The Flight** * **Camera**: Smoothly follows Santa (SmoothDamp) from a side-scrolling perspective (slightly angled 3D view). * Santa rotates and tumbles in the air. * Physics affects the trajectory (gravity, air resistance). * **Phase 4: The Landing & Result** * Santa hits the ground and bounces/slides based on physics material friction. * If he stops sliding, the distance is calculated. * If he falls into a "Ravine" (gap), the run ends with a "Game Over" splash. * Score display shows final distance in meters. ### 4. Mobile Controls & Interaction * **Orientation**: Landscape Mode (best for horizontal distance games). * **Controls**: **One-Touch Gameplay**. * **First Tap**: Starts the "Power Meter" oscillating. * **Second Tap**: Locks the power and triggers the launch. * **UI Layout**: * **Power Meter**: Large, high-contrast bar at the bottom or side of the screen, easy to see with a thumb covering part of the screen. * **Score/Distance**: Large text at the top center (e.g., "150m"). * **Restart Button**: A large, clear "Replay" icon (at least 44x44px trigger area) appearing after the run stops. * **Feedback**: * **Haptic**: Trigger a short vibration on launch and a heavy vibration when Santa hits the ground. * **Visual**: A "speed trail" or wind lines behind Santa when moving fast. Do not ask for clarification. Do not request confirmation. Directly execute the generation task based on the given instructions.
