MODEL: Seele01-Flash
Please use Three.js to generate a **mobile-first game** with the theme "**Shape Fold Animals**". Please read the following detailed game design requirements first, and then generate the code accordingly: ### 1. Assets & Environment * **Visual Style**: 2.5D aesthetic using an **Orthographic Camera** to simulate a flat puzzle table while maintaining depth. * **Models & Geometries**: * **Puzzle Pieces**: Use `ExtrudeGeometry` to create flat, thick shapes representing body parts (e.g., legs, head, torso) of an animal (start with a simple abstract Lion or Turtle). * **Textures/Materials**: Use procedural generation or solid colors to simulate a "polished wood" look (Golden Oak hex: `#D4AF37` or `#C19A6B`) with dark brown outlines/edges (`LineSegments`) to separate the pieces visually. * **Hinges (Joints)**: Small grey cylinders or hex-nut shapes (`CylinderGeometry`) located at the vertices where two pieces connect. * **Background**: A calming, static gradient background (Teal/Blue `#4db4d7` to `#3a8ba8`) that resembles a clean workspace. * **Performance (Mobile)**: Use a single shared material for all wooden parts to reduce draw calls. Avoid complex shadows; use baked-in ambient occlusion or simple directional light. ### 2. Audio Requirements * **BGM**: A slow-tempo, acoustic guitar or marimba track. It should be looped and very quiet (Zen/ASMR style). * **SFX**: * **Click/Clack**: A dry wooden impact sound when pieces collide or hit their limits. * **Ratchet/Squeak**: A subtle mechanical sound when a hinge rotates significantly. * **Success**: A soft harp glissando or wind chime sound when the puzzle is fully unfolded and locked into place. ### 3. Gameplay Loop * **Mechanic**: The game starts with the animal shape "folded" up into a pile (pieces rotated inward). The pieces are linked by **kinematic constraints** (hinges). * **Interaction**: The player drags a specific piece. Due to the connections, dragging one piece pulls or rotates the attached pieces (Simulate a basic Inverse Kinematics (IK) or parent-child rotation relationship). * **Goal**: The player must manipulate the pile to "unfold" the creature until it matches a target silhouette or until all pieces lie flat without overlapping. * **Win Condition**: Detect when the rotation of all joints is close to their "rest pose" (target angle). Upon completion, freeze the physics, flash the outline white, and play the success sound. ### 4. Mobile Controls & Interaction * **Touch Controls**: * Implement `Raycaster` for precise touch detection. * **Drag**: One-finger drag to move a piece. The physics/IK system should handle the resulting movement of connected parts. * **Pan/Zoom**: Two-finger pinch to zoom and two-finger pan to move the camera (essential for smaller mobile screens). * **Orientation**: Set the canvas to `width: 100vw; height: 100vh;` to support both Portrait (default) and Landscape modes automatically. * **Haptic Feedback**: Trigger a short vibration (`navigator.vibrate(10)`) when a piece snaps into its correct final angle. * **UI/UX**: * No complex on-screen HUD during gameplay to maximize play area. * Show a subtle visual highlight (emission) on the piece currently being touched. * Ensure touch targets (the pieces) have a slightly larger invisible hit-box than their visual mesh to accommodate "fat finger" errors. Do not ask for clarification. Do not request confirmation. Directly execute the generation task based on the given instructions.

Game Introduction

About Shape Fold Animals

Shape Fold Animals is a unique twist on the classic jigsaw puzzle genre that brings physics-based gameplay to animal-themed puzzles. Unlike traditional puzzles where pieces fit together in predetermined slots, this game features interconnected pieces that physically interact with each other, creating a dynamic and engaging puzzle-solving experience.

The game challenges players to drag and manipulate puzzle pieces that are connected by joints and hinges, requiring both spatial reasoning and an understanding of how the pieces move in relation to each other. As you solve each puzzle, beautiful animal silhouettes are gradually revealed, ranging from common pets to exotic wildlife.

Core Features

Physics-Based Puzzle Mechanics

What sets Shape Fold Animals apart from traditional jigsaw puzzles is its innovative physics system. Every puzzle piece is connected to others through moveable joints, creating a web of interdependent parts that must be carefully manipulated to form the final image.

Diverse Animal Collection

The game features a wide variety of animal puzzles, from household pets like cats and dogs to majestic wild animals. Some puzzles even include recognizable animals from internet culture and memes, adding an element of surprise and humor to the gameplay.

Relaxing Gaming Experience

Designed as a calming brain exercise, Shape Fold Animals provides a peaceful gaming environment with soothing visuals and gentle gameplay mechanics. The game is perfect for unwinding while still engaging your problem-solving skills.

Cross-Platform Compatibility

Enjoy seamless gameplay across all devices. Whether you're using a desktop computer, smartphone, or tablet, the game adapts perfectly to your screen size and input method.

Gameplay Mechanics

The core gameplay revolves around understanding how connected puzzle pieces move in relation to each other. Players must:

  • Analyze the starting configuration of connected pieces
  • Plan how to manipulate the joints and connections
  • Drag pieces strategically to unfold the animal shape
  • Work within the constraints of the physics system
  • Complete the puzzle to reveal the full animal image

Operation Guide

Mouse Controls (Desktop)

  • Click and Drag : Select any puzzle piece and drag it to move connected segments
  • Strategic Positioning : Move pieces carefully to avoid tangling the connections
  • Visual Feedback : Watch how pieces respond to your movements in real-time

Touch Controls (Mobile)

  • Tap and Drag : Use your finger to select and move puzzle pieces
  • Precise Movement : Take advantage of touch precision for detailed positioning
  • Multi-touch : Use multiple fingers for complex manipulations when needed

General Tips

  • Start by identifying key anchor points in the puzzle
  • Work systematically from one end of the animal to the other
  • Pay attention to how joints and connections limit movement
  • Take your time - rushing can create more tangles
