Prompt

MODEL: Seele01-Flash
Please use Three.js to generate a **mobile-first game** with the theme "**4 Images 1 Word Puzzle**". Please read the following detailed game design requirements first, and then generate the code accordingly: ### 1. Assets & Environment * **Visual Style**: * **2D UI over 3D Background**: The game should feature a clean, vibrant 2D UI for the puzzle elements (images and letter grid) layered over a subtle, animated 3D background. * **Color Palette**: Use a rich, deep purple (#3B1E78) as the primary background color, accented with bright neon pinks (#FF00CC) for highlights and glossy whites for borders, mimicking the provided reference image's aesthetic. * **3D Background**: A slowly rotating 3D texture of floating question marks (`?`) or cube geometries in the background. They should be low-poly and semi-transparent to add depth without distraction. * **UI Components**: * **Image Container**: A central 2x2 grid containing 4 placeholder image planes (use colored squares or generic distinct textures if external images aren't available). These planes should have a glossy, "gel-button" shader effect. * **Answer Slots**: A row of empty, rounded-square slots representing the length of the target word. * **Letter Pool**: A scrambled grid (e.g., 2 rows of 6) of available letter tiles at the bottom of the screen. Tiles should look like tactile, 3D buttons with a slight bevel. * **Performance**: Since this is a static puzzle game, focus on sharp text rendering and smooth UI transitions. Ensure textures are compressed. ### 2. Audio Requirements * **BGM (Background Music)**: A looped, thinking-style track. It should be instrumental, low-tempo, and slightly jazzy or ambient synth—relaxing but engaging, similar to quiz show "thinking time" music. * **SFX (Sound Effects)**: * **Tile Tap**: A crisp, wooden or plastic "click" sound when a letter is selected. * **Correct Answer**: A bright, ascending major-chord chime or "ding-ding-ding" followed by applause. * **Wrong Answer**: A subtle, low-pitched buzzer or a "wobble" sound. * **Shuffle**: A sound of tiles sliding against each other when the letter pool is reset. ### 3. Gameplay Loop * **Core Mechanic**: 1. **Display**: The scene loads with 4 distinct images (textures on the 2x2 grid) that share a common theme (e.g., "Cold", "Green", "Fast"). 2. **Input**: The player is presented with a scrambled pool of 12 letters. They must tap letters to fill the answer slots in order. 3. **Validation**: Once all answer slots are filled, the game checks the word. * **Success**: If the word is correct, the letters turn green, a particle confetti effect explodes, coins are awarded, and the game transitions to the next level. * **Failure**: If incorrect, the letters shake/vibrate red, and the player must tap them to return them to the pool and try again. * **Progression**: Start with 3 simple words (e.g., CAT, SUN, BALL) for the demo. * **Hint System**: A "Lightbulb" icon button that, when clicked, reveals one correct letter in a random position (simulated cost: 50 coins). ### 4. Mobile Controls & Interaction * **Orientation**: **Portrait Mode** (Vertical) is mandatory to accommodate the image grid on top and the keyboard layout at the bottom comfortably on phone screens. * **Touch Interactions**: * **Tapping**: Large, thumb-friendly hit areas (minimum 60x60px) for the letter tiles. * **Deselect**: Tapping a letter already placed in the answer slot should return it to the source pool. * **Feedback**: * **Visual**: When a letter is tapped, it should scale down slightly (0.9x) to simulate a physical button press. * **Haptic**: Trigger `navigator.vibrate(10)` on every letter tap for tactile feedback. Trigger a longer vibration pattern `[50, 50, 50]` on a wrong answer. * **Responsive Layout**: The 2x2 image grid should take up the top 40% of the screen, the answer slots the middle 20%, and the letter pool the bottom 40%. Ensure elements do not overlap with native mobile status bars. Do not ask for clarification. Do not request confirmation. Directly execute the generation task based on the given instructions.
