Prompt

MODEL: Seele01-Flash
Please use Three.js to generate a **mobile-first game** with the theme "Escape or Die". Please read the following detailed game design requirements first, and then generate the code accordingly: ### 1. Assets & Environment * **Visual Style:** Minimalist, high-tension thriller aesthetic (similar to "Superhot" or clean sci-fi). Use low-poly models with flat shading or simple textures to ensure high FPS on mobile devices. * **The Room Layout:** A small, enclosed 4-wall room. * **Focus Point:** A white desk containing a **Time Bomb** (red dynamite sticks with a digital countdown display) and a modern desk lamp. * **Surroundings:** A locked metal door with a keypad, a painting on the wall (interactive), and a drawer unit. * **Lighting & Atmosphere:** The scene must be dominated by a **pulsating red emergency light**. Use a red `PointLight` that modulates intensity over time (`Math.sin`) to create an alarm effect. Shadows should be sharp. * **Camera:** PerspectiveCamera. Start with a room view. The camera must support smooth transitions (using TWEEN.js or similar interpolation) to "zoom in" on specific interactable areas (e.g., zooming onto the bomb face, the keypad, or the drawer) without moving the player character physically. ### 2. Audio Requirements * **BGM:** A dark, driving, synth-wave track with a fast tempo that increases in pitch or speed as the timer runs low (referencing the "intense synth music" description). * **SFX:** * **High Priority:** A distinct, echoing ticking sound (1 beat per second). * **Interaction:** Sharp digital "beeps" for keypad presses, a "slide" sound for opening drawers, and a "click" for picking up items. * **Alarm:** A low-frequency siren loop in the background. ### 3. Gameplay Loop * **The Objective:** Defuse the bomb or unlock the door within a strict **4-minute countdown**. * **Interaction Cycle:** 1. **Search:** Player taps objects (lamp, rug, painting) to change camera angles and inspect them close-up. 2. **Collect:** Player finds items (e.g., a screwdriver, a key, a note with numbers). These go into an inventory slot. 3. **Solve:** Player uses the code found on the note to open the safe, or uses the screwdriver to open the bomb panel. 4. **Win/Loss:** * **Win:** Keypad code entered correctly -> Door opens -> "ESCAPED" screen. * **Loss:** Timer hits 00:00 -> Screen flashes white -> "EXPLODED" screen. ### 4. Mobile Controls & Interaction * **Touch Input:** Use a Raycaster attached to `touchstart` events. * **Tap to Interact:** Tapping an object interacts with it or zooms the camera to it. * **Navigation UI:** * **Inventory Bar:** A fixed row at the bottom of the screen (height: 60px) to show collected items. * **Back Button:** When the camera is zoomed in on an object, a large, thumb-friendly "Back" arrow (minimum 44x44px target size) must appear in the bottom-left or bottom-right corner to return to the main room view. * **Feedback:** * **Visual:** When an object is tappable, the cursor/crosshair should change color, or the object should have a slight emission highlight. * **Haptic:** Trigger `navigator.vibrate(50)` on successful item collection or button presses. * **Orientation:** Force Landscape mode for the best view of the room, or adapt the FOV if the user is in Portrait mode. Do not ask for clarification. Do not request confirmation. Directly execute the generation task based on the given instructions.
