Prompt

MODEL: Seele01-Flash
Please use Three.js to generate a **mobile-first game** with the theme "Popopop 3D Remake". Please read the following detailed game design requirements first, and then generate the code accordingly: ### 1. Assets & Environment * **Visual Style:** Transform the 2D flat Flash aesthetic into a clean, **Glossy 3D Toy** style. * **Bubbles:** Use `THREE.SphereGeometry`. Apply `THREE.MeshPhysicalMaterial` with high roughness (0.2) and clearcoat (1.0) to make them look like shiny plastic balls or jelly spheres. Colors should be vibrant: Electric Blue, Toxic Green, Slate Grey. * **Special Bubbles:** The "+1" bubble seen in the screenshot should be distinct (e.g., a glowing texture or a floating 3D text sprite inside the sphere). * **Background:** A soft, calming gradient skybox (Light Blue to White) or a simple plane with a grid texture to denote the game board area. * **Effects:** * **Explosions:** When a bubble pops, generate a `THREE.Points` particle system explosion (shards/droplets) matching the bubble's color. * **Animations:** Use `GSAP` (if available via CDN) or TWEEN for smooth scaling animations when bubbles spawn or pop. * **Performance:** Optimize for mobile. Use instances (`THREE.InstancedMesh`) if the grid exceeds 10x10 to reduce draw calls. Keep shadow map resolution moderate. ### 2. Audio Requirements * **BGM:** A minimalist, "thinking" soundtrack. Marimba or soft synth plucks. Rhythmic but not aggressive. * **Sound Effects (SFX):** * **Pop:** A satisfying, high-pitched "pop" or "plop" sound (like pulling a suction cup). * **Chain Reaction:** Slightly ascending pitch for each subsequent pop in a chain reaction combo. * **Bonus:** A "ding" or "power-up" sound when the "+1" bubble is popped. * **Win:** A short, happy major chord arpeggio. * **Fail:** A low-pitched "womp-womp" or dull thud. ### 3. Gameplay Loop * **Core Mechanic (Chain Reaction Puzzle):** * The game is played on a grid (e.g., 6x6). * **Initial State:** The grid is filled with bubbles. * **Action:** The player has a limited number of "Taps" (Moves). Tapping a bubble causes it to explode. * **Reaction:** When a bubble explodes, it sends out 4 invisible "projectiles" or visual ripples in the cardinal directions (Up, Down, Left, Right). If these hit a neighbor bubble, the neighbor also explodes (Chain Reaction). * **Special Mechanics:** * **Standard Bubble:** Pops and stops. * **Charged Bubble (Optional complexity):** Needs to be hit twice to pop. * **+1 Bubble:** When popped, it increments the player's remaining "Taps" count by 1. * **Win Condition:** Clear 100% of the bubbles on the screen. * **Fail Condition:** Run out of "Taps" while bubbles remain on the screen. * **Leveling:** Start simple (1 tap to clear small grid), progressively getting harder with complex patterns requiring specific pop orders. ### 4. Mobile Controls & Interaction * **Camera:** Fixed Perspective Camera positioned directly above (Top-Down view) or slightly angled (Isometric-ish) to show depth. * **Input:** * Use `Raycaster` for touch detection. * **Tap:** Selects and pops a bubble. * The interaction area for each bubble must be generous (expand the hit-testing hitbox slightly larger than the visual sphere). * **UI (HTML Overlay):** * **Top Bar:** Displays "Moves Left" and current "Level". Large, readable fonts (San-serif). * **Reset Button:** A clearly visible "Restart Level" icon in the corner (essential for puzzle games). * **Orientation:** Force the game container to fit the screen width. The grid should dynamically resize (scale) to fit within a vertical (Portrait) mobile screen without scrolling. * **Feedback:** * **Haptics:** Trigger `navigator.vibrate(50)` on every successful pop. * **Visual:** When tapped, the bubble should squash/stretch slightly before exploding for "juicy" feedback. Do not ask for clarification. Do not request confirmation. Directly execute the generation task based on the given instructions.
