Please use Three.js to generate a **mobile-first game** with the theme "**Wordling**". Please read the following detailed game design requirements first, and then generate the code accordingly: ### 1. Assets & Environment * **Visual Style:** A polished, "juicy" minimalist aesthetic using an **Orthographic Camera** to simulate a 2D UI but with 3D depth. The look should be vibrant and clean, mimicking the provided screenshot. * **Color Palette:** * **Background:** A dynamic gradient or split background using Hot Pink (`#FF69B4`) and Deep Rose (`#C71585`). * **Tiles (Default):** Dark Charcoal (`#333333`) with white text. * **Tiles (Correct Position):** Vibrant Pink/Red (`#FF3366`). * **Tiles (Wrong Position):** Golden Yellow (`#FFD700`). * **Tiles (Absent):** Light Grey (`#A9A9A9`). * **3D Models:** * **Letter Tiles:** Use `THREE.BoxGeometry` with slight bevels to create "chicklet-style" keys and grid tiles. They should look tactile. * **Background Elements:** Create a particle system of floating 3D letters scattered in the background (Z-depth behind the game board) that slowly rotate and drift to add life without distracting the player. * **Lighting:** Soft Ambient Light coupled with a Directional Light (top-left) to cast subtle shadows, giving the UI buttons and tiles a "raised" physical appearance. * **Performance:** Use `InstancedMesh` for the background floating letters to maintain 60FPS on mobile devices. ### 2. Audio Requirements * **BGM:** A chill, lo-fi hip-hop or soft synth-pop track. It should be repetitive but non-intrusive, encouraging focus (Think: "Elevator Bossa Nova"). * **Sound Effects (SFX):** * **Typing:** A satisfying mechanical keyboard "click" or soft "pop" sound for every letter input. * **Enter/Submit:** A "whoosh" followed by a sequential "flip" sound as the tiles reveal their colors one by one. * **Success:** A cheerful major-chord chime or arpeggio. * **Error:** A subtle low-pitch "thud" or "wobble" sound if the word is invalid or too short. ### 3. Gameplay Loop * **Core Mechanic:** The player must guess a hidden word (default to 5 letters, scalable to 4 or 6). * **Input Phase:** Player taps the virtual keyboard to fill the current active row. * **Validation Phase:** When "ENTER" is pressed: * Check if the word exists in the dictionary. * Trigger a **sequential animation**: Each tile in the row flips 360 degrees on the X-axis. * Halfway through the flip, change the tile color based on logic (Green/Pink = Correct spot, Yellow = Wrong spot, Grey = Not in word). * Update the virtual keyboard keys to reflect the known state of letters. * **Win/Loss:** * **Win:** All tiles in the row turn the "Correct" color. Trigger a confetti particle explosion. * **Loss:** All 6 attempts used. Reveal the correct word. ### 4. Mobile Controls & Interaction * **Orientation:** Strictly **Portrait Mode**. The camera zoom must adapt to screen width to ensure the grid and keyboard never clip off-screen. * **Input Controls:** * Implement a **Virtual Keyboard** at the bottom of the screen using 3D planes/boxes. * Use `Raycaster` for touch detection. * **Touch Targets:** Ensure keyboard keys are large enough for adult thumbs (simulate a minimal hit area, effectively 44x44px logical pixels). * **Feedback:** * **Visual:** When a key is tapped, it should slightly depress (move -Z) and spring back. * **Haptic:** Trigger `navigator.vibrate(50)` on every key press for tactile confirmation. * **Shake Effect:** If the user submits an invalid word, the entire current row of tiles should shake horizontally (sine wave animation). * **Meta:** Prevent default browser zooming and scrolling (`touch-action: none`) to make the app feel native. Do not ask for clarification. Do not request confirmation. Directly execute the generation task based on the given instructions.
