Prompt

MODEL: Seele01-Flash
Please use Three.js to generate a **mobile-first game** with the theme "**Alcatraz Escape 3D**". Please read the following detailed game design requirements first, and then generate the code accordingly: ### 1. Assets & Environment * **Visual Style:** Create a **Stylized Low-Poly 3D** environment that mimics the cartoonish, hand-drawn aesthetic of the reference screenshot but in a fully explorable 3D space. Use **Cel-shading (Toon Shader)** materials to retain the 2D flash game vibe. * **Room Layout:** A claustrophobic prison cell (roughly 3m x 3m x 3m). * **Walls:** Two-tone texture—bottom half is "Institutional Green" (approx. hex #66BB6A), top half is dirty off-white/concrete. * **Key Models:** * **Toilet & Sink:** Low-poly porcelain models attached to the back wall. * **Table:** A small, rickety green table with a roll of toilet paper (interactable item) on top. * **Bed:** A metal cot with a thin mattress against the right wall. * **Vent:** A metal grate located low on the wall (the primary escape route), initially screwed shut. * **Door:** Iron bars on the front wall (view into a dark corridor). * **Lighting:** Single overhead fluorescent light source that flickers occasionally to create the "Scary/Tense" atmosphere described in the tags. Use baked shadows for static objects to save mobile GPU performance. * **Mobile Optimization:** Limit total scene vertex count to under 10k. Use compressed textures (basis universal if possible, otherwise JPG) and avoid expensive real-time shadows. ### 2. Audio Requirements * **BGM:** A low, ominous ambient drone (deep bass/synth) that loops seamlessly. It should convey isolation and tension. * **SFX (Sound Effects):** * **Interaction:** A distinct "pop" or "rustle" sound when tapping items (e.g., picking up the toilet paper). * **Metal Sounds:** A metallic "clang" when interacting with the vent or bed frame. * **Atmosphere:** Occasional distant water drips and echoing footsteps (representing the guards/screws mentioned in the description). * **Failure:** A loud prison buzzer if the player is caught. ### 3. Gameplay Loop * **Concept:** A "Room Escape" puzzle adapted for 3D. * **Core Mechanic:** The player is locked in the cell and must find a way to open the vent before the guard returns. * **Sequence:** 1. **Explore:** Player rotates the camera to look around the cell. 2. **Loot:** Tap the table to get **Toilet Paper**. Tap under the bed to find a **Spoon** (hidden item). 3. **Solve:** Select the Spoon from the inventory and tap the **Vent** to unscrew the bolts. 4. **Escape:** Once the vent is open, tap the dark tunnel to trigger the "Win" state (fade to black with text "You escaped the Rock!"). * **Lose Condition:** (Optional for V1) A timer acts as the "Guard Patrol." If the puzzle isn't solved in 60 seconds, the guard appears at the bars, and the game resets. ### 4. Mobile Controls & Interaction * **Camera Control:** * **OrbitControls:** Allow the player to swipe the screen to look around the room (limit vertical angle to avoid clipping through floor/ceiling). * **Zoom:** Pinch to zoom in slightly on interactable objects. * **Interaction (Raycaster):** * **Tap-to-Interact:** Tapping on an object (Vent, Spoon, Toilet Paper) triggers an animation or inventory addition. * **Hitbox Expansion:** Ensure invisible hitboxes for small items (like the spoon) are at least 44x44 pixels on screen to be touch-friendly. * **UI Layout:** * **Orientation:** Portrait mode preferred for one-handed play, or responsive Landscape. * **Inventory Bar:** A fixed bar at the bottom of the screen showing collected items. Selected items should have a highlight effect. * **Feedback:** Trigger device vibration (Haptic API) when the player successfully finds an item or unlocks the vent. Do not ask for clarification. Do not request confirmation. Directly execute the generation task based on the given instructions.
