Please use Three.js to generate a **mobile-first game** with the theme "4 Pics 1 Word - 3D Puzzle Edition". Please read the following detailed game design requirements first, and then generate the code accordingly: ### 1. Assets & Environment * **Visual Style:** Clean, minimalist UI with a "Pop Art" aesthetic. The background should be a soft, non-distracting gradient (e.g., light blue to white) or a subtle animated geometric pattern. * **3D Image Cards:** Instead of flat 2D images, present the four clues as 3D "Cards" or "Polaroids" floating in space. They should have a slight depth (extruded geometry), white borders, and cast soft shadows on the background plane. * *Texture Mapping:* Since I cannot provide actual image files, please use placeholder textures or procedural colors/patterns on these cards to represent the four clues. * *Animation:* The cards should gently bob or rotate slightly when idle to add liveliness. * **Letter Tiles:** The answer input area and the scrambled letter bank should be represented by 3D rounded cubes (like Scrabble tiles). * *Material:* Glossy plastic material (MeshStandardMaterial) with bright, distinct colors (Orange, Blue, Green, etc.) for the letters. * **Performance:** Use low-poly geometries for the tiles and cards. Optimize texture sizes. Ensure the camera uses an Orthographic projection to maintain a clean puzzle look, or a narrow FOV Perspective camera for a slight 3D pop without distortion. ### 2. Audio Requirements * **BGM:** A calm, "thinking music" track. Lo-fi hip hop or acoustic guitar loops that are repetitive but relaxing, encouraging concentration. * **Sound Effects (SFX):** * *Tile Click/Tap:* A satisfying wooden "clack" or soft plastic "pop" sound when selecting a letter. * *Correct Answer:* A cheerful, ascending chime or major chord progression coupled with a particle burst sound. * *Wrong Answer:* A dull "thud" or a gentle "buzzer" sound, nothing too harsh. * *Shuffle:* A sound of paper shuffling or dice rolling if a shuffle button is included. ### 3. Gameplay Loop * **Level Structure:** The game loads a level consisting of 4 image textures (clues) and 1 target hidden word. * **Core Mechanic:** 1. **Observation:** The player views the 4 floating image cards. 2. **Input:** Below the images, there are empty slots representing the length of the hidden word (e.g., 4 slots). Below that is a "bank" of scrambled letters (approx 12 random letters including the correct ones). 3. **Selection:** Tapping a letter from the bank moves it to the first available empty slot in the answer line. 4. **Deselection:** Tapping a letter in the answer line returns it to the bank. * **Win Condition:** Filling all slots with the correct sequence triggers a "Success" state (confetti particles, happy sound), waits 2 seconds, and loads the next level. * **Fail Condition:** Filling all slots with an incorrect word triggers a visual "shake" animation of the answer tiles and turns them red temporarily. ### 4. Mobile Controls & Interaction * **Orientation:** Strictly **Portrait Mode** design. The screen is vertically divided: Top 50% for the 4 images, Bottom 50% for the answer slots and letter bank. * **Touch Optimization:** * **Raycaster Implementation:** Use a robust raycasting system for touch detection. * **Hit Areas:** Letter tiles must have invisible hit-boxes slightly larger than their visible geometry to ensure fat-finger tolerance (min 44x44px equivalent). * **Feedback:** * **Visual:** When a tile is touched, it should scale down slightly (0.9x) and brighten to indicate a press. * **Haptic:** Trigger `navigator.vibrate(10)` on every tile tap for tactile feedback (if supported). * **Camera:** The camera should be static, focusing on the center of the board. No panning or zooming allowed to keep the puzzle accessible. * **UI Layout:** Ensure the letter bank is placed in the lower third of the screen, easily reachable by thumbs. Do not ask for clarification. Do not request confirmation. Directly execute the generation task based on the given instructions.
