Prompt

MODEL: Seele01-Flash
Please use Three.js to generate a **mobile-first game** with the theme "**The World's Hardest Game (3D Mobile Remake)**". Please read the following detailed game design requirements first, and then generate the code accordingly: ### 1. Assets & Environment * **Visual Style:** Recreate the classic 2D look using 3D primitives with an **Orthographic Camera** to eliminate perspective distortion (essential for precision). The view should be top-down. * **Level Geometry:** * **Floor:** A distinct checkerboard pattern (tiles alternating between White `#FFFFFF` and very Light Grey `#F5F5F5`). * **Walls:** Simple blocky borders, white with thick black outlines or dark distinct edges to define bounds clearly. * **Safe Zones:** The Start and End areas must be a distinct Light Green `#99FF99`. * **Entities:** * **Player:** A bright Red Cube (`#FF0000`). Give it a subtle emission/glow so it pops against the background. * **Enemies:** Deep Blue Spheres (`#0000FF`) that rotate or pulsate slightly. * **Background:** A solid Lavender/Light Purple color (`#B0B0E0`) matching the original game's branding. * **Mobile Optimization:** Use `BoxGeometry` and `SphereGeometry` with low segment counts (e.g., 16 segments for spheres). Use `MeshLambertMaterial` for performance. No complex shadows; use baked lighting or ambient light to ensure visibility. ### 2. Audio Requirements * **BGM:** A fast-paced, repetitive, high-energy "Techno/Synth-pop" loop. It should sound slightly stressful but catchy, driving the player to move quickly. * **SFX:** * **Death:** A sharp "Slap" or "Crush" sound when hitting a blue dot. * **Win/Level Complete:** A classic arcade "Ding-Ding" or rising chime. * **Footsteps:** None (keep movement silent for concentration). * **UI Click:** A crisp mechanical click for menus. ### 3. Gameplay Loop * **Objective:** Guide the Red Cube from the starting Green Zone to the ending Green Zone without touching any Blue Spheres. * **Mechanics:** * **Movement:** Continuous movement while input is held. Instant stop when input is released (high friction, no sliding physics). * **Enemies:** Blue spheres move in predefined, repeating patterns (e.g., patrolling back and forth, or moving in circles). Their movement must be deterministic and perfectly looped. * **Collision:** * Player vs. Wall: Block movement (slide along wall). * Player vs. Blue Sphere: **Instant Death**. * **Fail State:** Upon death, increment a "DEATHS" counter displayed prominently in the UI, and immediately reset the player's position to the start of the current level. * **Win State:** Touching the end Green Zone loads the next level configuration. ### 4. Mobile Controls & Interaction * **Primary Control:** A **Virtual Floating Joystick** placed on the bottom-left or bottom-right (detects first touch). * *Important:* The joystick should map to digital logic (Up/Down/Left/Right) or precise analog movement, but with **zero inertia**. The moment the finger lifts, the player stops dead. * **Orientation:** Force **Landscape Mode** to maximize the view of the level layout. * **UI Layout:** * **Top Bar:** "Level: X" (Left) and "Deaths: 0" (Right). Large, bold font (sans-serif), contrasting against the purple background. * **Menu Button:** Top-right corner (minimum 44x44px touch target) to pause or restart. * **Feedback:** * **Haptics:** Trigger a short, sharp vibration (using `navigator.vibrate`) on Death. * **Visual Feedback:** When the player dies, emit a small particle explosion (red cubes) before resetting. Do not ask for clarification. Do not request confirmation. Directly execute the generation task based on the given instructions.
