Prompt

MODEL: Seele01-Flash
Please use Three.js to generate a **mobile-first game** with the theme "Max and Mink: The Co-op Adventure". Please read the following detailed game design requirements first, and then generate the code accordingly: ### 1. Assets & Environment * **Visual Style:** 2.5D Side-Scroller using a "Toon Shaded" or "Cel-Shaded" aesthetic to mimic the cartoon vector art of the original screenshot. Use bright, saturated colors (Cyan sky, Kelly green grass). * **Character Models (Low-Poly):** * **Max:** A sturdy, purple/brown wolf-like humanoid character wearing a red vest. He should look physically strong. * **Mink:** A smaller, agile, elf-like creature with blonde hair and an orange outfit. Scale should be 0.6x the size of Max. * **Environment:** * **Platforms:** Geometric floating islands with grass tops and dirt bottoms. * **Background:** A scrolling parallax background featuring simple low-poly hills and puffy white clouds against a light blue sky. * **The Door:** A mystical, glowing portal or a rustic wooden door frame that requires both players to stand near it to activate. * **Mobile Optimization:** Use `THREE.BoxGeometry` and `THREE.CylinderGeometry` primitives for characters to keep the vertex count extremely low. Use a single directional light with soft shadows and an ambient light to reduce rendering cost on mobile GPUs. ### 2. Audio Requirements * **BGM:** An upbeat, adventurous, and whimsical track. Think "Happy forest platformer" using flutes, marimbas, and a light drum beat. * **Sound Effects (SFX):** * **Jump:** A cartoonish "Boing" or "Whoosh" sound. * **Max's Ability:** A "Rubber band stretching" sound when Max elongates his body. * **Victory:** A "High-five" clap sound followed by a cheerful jingle when both reach the door. * **Failure:** A comical "slide whistle" drop sound if a character falls off the platform. ### 3. Gameplay Loop * **Core Mechanic:** A cooperative puzzle-platformer where the player must get *both* characters to the Exit Door. * **Character Abilities:** * **Max (The Support):** Moves slower but can "Stretch." When the action button is held, Max's torso scales up vertically (Y-axis), acting as a living ladder or bridge. * **Mink (The Agility):** Moves faster and jumps higher. Mink can jump onto Max's head to reach high platforms that are otherwise inaccessible. * **Win Condition:** Both Max and Mink's collision boxes must intersect with the Exit Door simultaneously. * **Fail Condition:** If either character falls below the Y-axis threshold (falls into the void), the level resets immediately. ### 4. Mobile Controls & Interaction * **Orientation:** **Landscape Mode** is mandatory to fit the horizontal level design. * **Control Scheme (Asymmetric/Toggle):** * Since controlling two characters on one phone is difficult, implement a **"Swap Character" Button** (large circular icon, top-right). * **Left Hand:** A virtual Joystick or D-Pad for movement (Left/Right). * **Right Hand:** * **Button A (Jump):** Standard jump. * **Button B (Action):** Triggers Max's "Stretch" or Mink's "Glide/High Jump". * **Visual Feedback:** UI buttons must be semi-transparent white (opacity 0.5) and glow/scale up slightly when touched to indicate registration. * **Camera Behavior:** The camera must dynamically zoom out to keep *both* characters in the frame. If they get too far apart, clamp the movement so they don't go off-screen. ### 5. English Output Please output the code and comments strictly in English. Do not ask for clarification. Do not request confirmation. Directly execute the generation task based on the given instructions.
