Zen Blocks is a relaxing physics-based puzzle game where you stack blocks of different materials and shapes to create stable structures. Use real physics mechanics to balance your creations for at least three seconds.

Prompt

MODEL: Seele01-Flash
Please use Three.js to generate a **mobile-first game** with the theme "**Zen Blocks**". Please read the following detailed game design requirements first, and then generate the code accordingly: ### 1. Assets & Environment * **Visual Style**: High-contrast, minimalist 3D aesthetic typical of "Madbox" or hyper-casual games. Use a bright, saturated sky-blue background (`#2EB5FF` or similar) to evoke a calming day. * **Materials**: * **Wood**: Use a realistic wood grain texture for the movable blocks (light orange/brown hues). * **Stone**: Use a rough, grey rock texture for the static base/platform. * **Water**: A reflective, slightly rippling blue plane at the bottom of the scene (`y = 0` or below) to act as the "fail zone." * **Shadows**: Soft, directional lighting (Sunlight) casting distinct shadows to give depth and help players judge block alignment. * **Optimization**: Use low-poly meshes with baked textures where possible to ensure 60fps on mobile browsers. Avoid expensive post-processing bloom unless performance allows. ### 2. Audio Requirements * **BGM**: A loop of ambient, meditative music (soft piano, wind chimes, or gentle flowing water sounds) to match the "Zen" theme. * **SFX**: * **Wood Knock**: A satisfying, crisp wooden "clack" sound when blocks collide with each other. * **Splash**: A distinct water splash sound when a block falls off the platform. * **Success Chime**: A gentle, ascending harp or bell sound when the 3-second stability timer completes. * **Grab/Release**: Subtle "whoosh" or pop sounds for interaction feedback. ### 3. Gameplay Loop * **Core Mechanic**: Physics-based stacking. The player is presented with a fixed base (e.g., a narrow stone pillar). * **Objective**: Place a predefined set of blocks (cubes, rectangles, planks) onto the base without them falling into the water. * **Physics Logic**: Use a physics engine (like Cannon.js or Ammo.js integrated with Three.js). Blocks must have realistic mass and friction. Wood should slide less than ice but slide easily if at a steep angle. * **Win Condition**: Once all blocks are placed, a "stability timer" starts. If the structure remains standing for 3 seconds, the level is won. * **Fail Condition**: If any single block touches the water (y-coordinate threshold), the level fails immediately and creates a splash effect. ### 4. Mobile Controls & Interaction * **Control Scheme**: One-finger touch interaction. * **Drag**: Touch and hold anywhere on the screen (or directly on the active block) to move the block horizontally above the stack. * **Release**: Lift the finger to drop the block. The block should be influenced by gravity immediately upon release. * **Camera**: A fixed perspective or slightly orthographic view that frames the entire puzzle. It should handle portrait mode (vertical stacking) comfortably. * **Feedback**: * **Ghost/Guide**: Show a semi-transparent "ghost" or a vertical line extending downwards from the held block to show exactly where it will land (crucial for mobile precision). * **Haptics**: Trigger a short vibration (using `navigator.vibrate`) when a block lands successfully or falls into the water. * **UI**: Minimalist UI. A "Retry" button in the top right corner (at least 44x44px touch area) and a visible "Level N" indicator. When the level is won, show a "Next Level" button overlay. Do not ask for clarification. Do not request confirmation. Directly execute the generation task based on the given instructions.

Game Introduction

About Zen Blocks

Zen Blocks is a meditative physics puzzle game that combines creativity with strategic thinking. Players must stack blocks of various materials, shapes, and sizes to create stable structures that can remain balanced for three seconds. The game emphasizes relaxation and stress-free gameplay, living up to its "Zen" philosophy.

Unlike traditional puzzle games with rigid solutions, Zen Blocks encourages experimentation and creative problem-solving. Each level presents a unique set of blocks with different physical properties, challenging players to understand weight distribution, balance points, and structural stability.

Core Features

Physics-Based Gameplay

The game utilizes realistic physics simulation, making every block placement feel authentic. Wood blocks behave differently from stone blocks, and each shape has its own center of gravity and stability characteristics.

Creative Freedom

There's no single "correct" solution to any level. Players can choose conservative, safe stacking approaches or take bold risks with daring architectural designs. This freedom encourages multiple playthroughs and experimentation.

Relaxing Experience

True to its name, Zen Blocks provides a calming, stress-free gaming environment. The gentle gameplay mechanics and forgiving failure system create a meditative experience perfect for unwinding.

Multiple Material Types

Blocks come in various materials including wood, stone, and other substances, each with unique physical properties that affect gameplay strategy.

Gameplay Mechanics

Stacking Challenge

Each level provides a specific set of blocks that must be arranged to create a stable structure. The challenge lies in understanding how different shapes and materials interact with each other.

Three-Second Rule

Success is measured by structural stability - your creation must remain standing and balanced for a full three seconds without any pieces falling.

Water Hazard System

Blocks that fall into water cost you a life, adding a strategic element to placement decisions. However, the game allows unlimited retries, encouraging experimentation without penalty.

Operation Guide

Desktop Controls

  • Mouse Click and Hold : Grab and select a block
  • Mouse Drag : Position the block where you want to place it
  • Mouse Release : Drop the block in the desired location

Mobile Controls

  • Tap and Hold : Grab a block with your finger
  • Drag : Move the block to your preferred position
  • Release : Drop the block to complete placement

The intuitive control system works seamlessly across all devices, requiring no complex button combinations or special techniques.

Why Play Zen Blocks

Stress Relief and Mindfulness

Zen Blocks offers a perfect escape from daily stress. The gentle gameplay and beautiful visual design create a meditative environment that helps players relax and focus.

Improves Spatial Reasoning

Regular play enhances spatial intelligence, physics understanding, and problem-solving skills. Players develop better intuition for balance, weight distribution, and structural engineering principles.

Accessible to All Ages

The simple controls and forgiving gameplay make it suitable for players of all ages and skill levels. Children can enjoy the creative aspects while adults appreciate the physics challenges.

Perfect for Short Sessions

Each level can be completed in just a few minutes, making it ideal for quick gaming sessions during breaks or commutes.

Cross-Platform Compatibility

Play anywhere, anytime - the game works perfectly on desktop computers, tablets, and smartphones without requiring any downloads or installations.
