Prompt

MODEL: Seele01-Flash
Please use Three.js to generate a **mobile-first game** with the theme "2048 Blocks Merge". Please read the following detailed game design requirements first, and then generate the code accordingly: ### 1. Assets & Environment * **Visual Style:** A clean, vibrant, "Hyper-casual" aesthetic using 3D assets to represent a 2D grid. Use a fixed **Perspective Camera** positioned to view the board head-on but with enough depth to show the 3D nature of the blocks. * **The Grid:** Create a vertical board with 5 distinct columns (slots). The background should be a sleek, dark gradient (deep purple to midnight blue) to make the colored blocks pop. * **Block Design:** Use `BoxGeometry` with beveled edges (rounded corners) for the number tiles. * **Color Coding:** Implement a distinct color palette for powers of 2 (e.g., 2: Pink, 4: Orange, 8: Magenta, 16: Green, 32: Teal, 64: Red, etc.) similar to the screenshot. * **Typography:** Large, white, bold 3D text (or texture sprites) centered on the front face of each block. * **Effects:** * **Merge Effect:** When blocks merge, the new block should "pulse" (scale up and down quickly) and emit a small burst of simple particle confetti. * **Lighting:** Use soft `AmbientLight` and a `DirectionalLight` from the top-left to cast subtle shadows, giving the blocks a tactile feel. * **Mobile Optimization:** Use `InstancedMesh` if possible for blocks to reduce draw calls, or keep geometry segments low. Limit shadow map resolution for mobile performance. ### 2. Audio Requirements * **BGM:** A chill, lo-fi electronic or "thinking" puzzle track. It should be repetitive but non-intrusive to aid concentration. * **Sound Effects (SFX):** * **Drop:** A solid, satisfying "thud" or "click" when a block lands. * **Merge:** A pleasant, musical chime or synth "pop". Pitch should increase slightly as the number values get higher (e.g., merging 1024 sounds more grand than merging 2). * **Game Over:** A descending tone or "power down" sound. * **Powerups:** Distinct sounds for using the Hammer (smash), Swap (whoosh), and Upgrade (magical shimmer). ### 3. Gameplay Loop * **Core Mechanic:** The game is a mix of Tetris and 2048. * A "Current Block" spawns at the top of the selected column. * The player chooses a column, and the block drops to the lowest unoccupied position. * **Merge Logic:** If a block lands on top of another block with the **same number**, they merge into one block with double the value (e.g., 64 on 64 becomes 128). This merge can trigger a chain reaction if the new block matches its neighbors. * **Next Block Preview:** Display the *next* upcoming number at the top UI so the player can plan ahead. * **Progression:** The numbers increase (2, 4, 8... 2048, 4096, etc.). * **Powerups (Bottom UI):** 1. **Hammer:** Allows the player to tap and destroy any single block on the board. 2. **Swap:** Swaps the "Current Block" with the "Next Block" in the queue. 3. **Upgrade:** Doubles the value of a specific block on the board (e.g., turn a 16 into a 32). * **Win/Loss:** * **Score:** Points are awarded based on the value of merged blocks. * **Game Over:** When a column is filled to the top and a new block cannot spawn/drop in that slot. ### 4. Mobile Controls & Interaction * **Portrait Mode:** The game must be designed for vertical (Portrait) orientation. * **Touch Controls:** * **Drag & Release (Recommended):** Player touches the screen and drags horizontally to move the falling block's "aiming ghost" across the 5 columns. Releasing the finger drops the block. * **Tap:** Tapping a specific column directly drops the block there instantly. * **Raycaster:** Use Three.js `Raycaster` to detect which column the user is touching. * **Haptic Feedback:** Trigger a light vibration (`navigator.vibrate`) when blocks merge to provide tactile gratification. * **UI Layout:** * **Top Bar:** High Score and Current Score. * **Bottom Bar:** Powerup buttons must be at least 44x44px and placed in the "thumb zone" at the bottom of the screen. * **Settings:** A small gear icon for toggling Sound/Vibration. Do not ask for clarification. Do not request confirmation. Directly execute the generation task based on the given instructions.

Game Introduction

About the Game

2048 Blocks Merge is a captivating puzzle game that puts a fresh spin on the classic 2048 concept. Instead of sliding tiles on a grid, you'll be dropping numbered blocks into columns, creating a dynamic vertical gameplay experience. Your mission is simple yet challenging: match and merge identical numbered blocks to create increasingly larger numbers, with the ultimate goal of reaching 2048 and pushing even further beyond.

This brain-teasing puzzle game combines strategic thinking with quick decision-making. Each move matters as you carefully plan where to drop your blocks to create the most efficient merging chains. The game features a unique column-based system that adds depth and complexity to the traditional 2048 formula.
