Prompt

MODEL: Seele01-Flash
Please use Three.js to generate a **mobile-first game** with the theme "Classic Wooden Tic-Tac-Toe". Please read the following detailed game design requirements first, and then generate the code accordingly: ### 1. Assets & Environment * **Visual Style**: Realistic skeuomorphic "Wooden Toy" aesthetic. The game board should look like a polished wooden tray with 9 recessed square compartments (3x3 grid). * **Models & Geometry**: * **The Board**: A warm, light-brown wood texture. The grid lines should be slightly raised, creating depth for the slots. * **The Pieces**: * "O" pieces: Red, torus-shaped (ring) 3D meshes. They should look painted on wood. * "X" pieces: Green, cross-shaped 3D meshes. * **Background**: A slightly darker, blurred wooden table surface or a soft, neutral gradient to focus attention on the board. * **Lighting**: Use a warm directional light to cast soft shadows inside the grid pockets to emphasize the 3D depth. Add an ambient light to ensure no parts are too dark. * **Performance**: Use simple geometries (BoxGeometry, TorusGeometry) to keep polygon count low. Reuse materials (InstancesMesh is preferred for the grid slots if possible, but standard meshes are fine for this scale) to optimize for mobile GPUs. ### 2. Audio Requirements * **BGM**: A soft, relaxing, acoustic guitar or light marimba track (Coffee shop puzzle vibe). It should be loopable and non-intrusive. * **Sound Effects (SFX)**: * **Placement**: A satisfying wooden "clack" or "thud" sound when a piece is placed on the board. * **Win**: A cheerful major-chord chime or a "ding-ding-ding" sound. * **Draw**: A neutral, slightly lower-pitched "thump" sound. * **Button Press**: A standard UI click sound for the Reset/Mode switch buttons. ### 3. Gameplay Loop * **Core Mechanics**: * The game starts with an empty 3x3 grid. * **Turn-Based System**: Toggles between Player X and Player O. * **Mode Switch**: Include a UI toggle for "1 Player" (Player vs CPU) and "2 Players" (Human vs Human on the same device). * **CPU Logic**: If in 1 Player mode, the CPU should make a move immediately after the human player. The AI can be random or use a simple defensive logic. * **Win/Loss Logic**: * Check for 3 matching symbols in any row, column, or diagonal after every move. * **Win State**: Draw a visual line (particle trail or a solid 3D cylinder) through the winning combination. * **Draw State**: If all 9 slots are filled and no winner, declare a Draw. * **Reset**: A "Play Again" button appears after the game ends. ### 4. Mobile Controls & Interaction * **Touch Controls**: * Use `THREE.Raycaster` mapped to `touchstart` (not just `click`) to ensure instant responsiveness on mobile devices. * The touch area for each grid slot should be generous (the entire square), not just the center point. * **Camera & View**: * Fixed camera angle: Top-down view (OrthographicCamera preferred for clarity, or PerspectiveCamera with a slight angle to show the thickness of the wood). * **Lock Viewport**: Disable standard browser touch gestures (pinch-zoom, double-tap to zoom, scroll) on the canvas to prevent the board from moving while playing. * **UI Layout**: * **Orientation**: Portrait mode preferred. * **Scoreboard**: Place a clear score counter at the top (Player X: 0 - Player O: 0). * **Feedback**: When a player taps a valid slot, give a small "pop-in" animation (scale 0 -> 1) for the piece appearing to provide visual feedback. Do not ask for clarification. Do not request confirmation. Directly execute the generation task based on the given instructions.
