Prompt

MODEL: Seele01-Flash
Please use Three.js to generate a **mobile-first game** with the theme "**Ice Fishing 3D Simulator**". Please read the following detailed game design requirements first, and then generate the code accordingly: ### 1. Assets & Environment * **Visual Style**: Use a **Low-Poly, Flat-Shaded** aesthetic to mimic the vector art style of the reference screenshot. The color palette should be dominated by cool tones: icy whites, pale cyans, and deep navy blues for shadows. * **Scene Composition**: * **Terrain**: A large, flat white/blue plane representing the frozen lake. Use Perlin noise to add slight surface irregularities (snow drifts). * **Background**: A simple skybox with a gradient (pale blue to white) and low-poly mountains in the distance (as seen in the screenshot). A soft "sun" glow on the horizon. * **Player/Camera**: A First-Person Controller. The camera should bob slightly when walking. When in "Fishing Mode," the camera locks to a view looking down at the ice hole and the fishing rod. * **Key Models (Primitives)**: * **Ice Auger**: A spiral cylinder shape for the drill. * **Fishing Rod**: A simple tapered cylinder with a visible line (using `THREE.Line`) extending into the water. * **The Hole**: A dark cylinder boolean cut into the ice plane, with a water shader plane inside that ripples. * **Performance**: Use `THREE.InstancedMesh` for any environmental details (like scattered rocks or distant trees). Limit real-time shadows; use baked vertex colors or ambient lighting to simulate the overcast winter light. ### 2. Audio Requirements * **BGM**: A generative, ambient soundscape featuring wind howling softly and distant, hollow ice cracking sounds. It should feel isolating but relaxing. * **Sound Effects (SFX)**: * **Walking**: Crunching snow sounds (synced with movement). * **Drilling**: A mechanical grinding/churning sound. * **Fishing**: * *Plop*: Bait hitting the water. * *Reel Click*: A high-pitched ratchet sound when reeling in. * *Tension Warning*: A string stretching sound increasing in pitch as tension rises. * *Splash*: Water splashing when a fish is pulled out. ### 3. Gameplay Loop The game flows between **Exploration Mode** and **Fishing Mode**. * **Phase 1: Exploration**: Player walks on the ice using a joystick. They can choose a spot and press "Drill". * **Phase 2: Drilling**: Player holds a button to drill. A progress bar fills. When complete, a hole appears. * **Phase 3: Fishing (The Core Mechanic)**: * **Baiting**: Player selects bait from a simple UI overlay (Larvae, Bloodworm, Shrimp). * **Depth**: Player uses a slider to lower the hook. Different fish spawn at different depths (e.g., Perch shallow, Pike deep). * **Teasing**: Player must occasionally "jig" (tap a button) to attract fish. * **The Bite**: The rod tip bends (vertex displacement or rotation). * **The Fight (Tension System)**: * The player must hold a "Reel" button. * **Tension Bar**: A UI bar fills up. If it hits Red (100%), the line snaps (Fail). If it hits 0% while a fish is hooked, the fish escapes. The player must tap/hold/release to keep the bar in the "Green Zone". * **Phase 4: Catch & Economy**: * If successful, the fish model appears. Display species name and value (e.g., "Carp - $80"). * Money is added to a global score. Simple "Shop" logic: earning enough money unlocks the "Pro Rod" (makes the Tension Bar forgiving). ### 4. Mobile Controls & Interaction * **Orientation**: **Landscape Mode**. * **Exploration Controls**: * **Left Thumb**: Virtual Joystick for movement (WASD logic). * **Right Screen**: Drag to rotate camera look. * **Action Button**: A large circular button on the right labeled "DRILL". * **Fishing Controls (UI Overlay)**: * **Vertical Slider (Right side)**: Controls hook depth. * **Jig Button**: Tapping it shakes the rod model. * **Reel Button (Large)**: This is the primary interaction during a catch. It must be responsive (TouchStart/TouchEnd). * **Visual Feedback**: * **Vibration**: Trigger `navigator.vibrate` when a fish bites and when tension is in the red zone. * **Tension UI**: The tension bar should change color (Green -> Yellow -> Red) dynamically. * **Rod Bending**: The Three.js geometry for the rod should bend downwards based on the tension variable. Do not ask for clarification. Do not request confirmation. Directly execute the generation task based on the given instructions.

Core Features

Realistic Fishing Mechanics

The game emphasizes authentic fishing techniques, requiring players to master proper bait selection, depth control, and timing. Each fish species has specific preferences for bait type and water depth, making strategic thinking essential for successful catches.

Equipment Progression System

Start with basic gear and gradually upgrade to advanced equipment: - Fishing Rods : More powerful rods handle larger fish - Drilling Equipment : Better drills access deeper fishing spots - Bait Variety : 11 different bait types attract specific fish species - Tournament Access : Compete with other anglers in organized events

Diverse Fish Species

Catch over 12 different fish types, each with unique value and requirements: - Common catches like Ruff ($10) and Roach ($20) - Valuable species like Brown Trout ($520) and Corvina ($600) - Premium fish such as Rockfish ($640) and Redear Sunfish ($680)

Multiple Fishing Locations

Explore various frozen lakes and fishing spots, each offering different fish populations and challenges. Location variety ensures fresh experiences and new fishing opportunities.

Game Mechanics

Basic Fishing Process

  1. Prepare Your Spot : Use your drill to create a fishing hole in the ice
  2. Bait Selection : Choose appropriate bait based on target fish species
  3. Depth Control : Lower your hook to the optimal depth using the reel system
  4. Fish Attraction : Move your rod up and down to entice fish
  5. Hook Setting : Watch for rod tip movement and strike quickly
  6. Reeling In : Carefully wind in your catch, monitoring line tension
  7. Landing : Successfully bring fish onto the ice surface

Advanced Strategies

  • Bait Matching : Different fish prefer specific baits (bloodworms, larvae, corn, special wobblers)
  • Depth Awareness : Fish species inhabit different water depths
  • Equipment Scaling : Larger fish require stronger rods and better equipment
  • Location Scouting : Move between spots when fishing slows down

Operation Guide

The game features intuitive controls designed for both desktop and mobile play:

Movement Controls : - WASD keys or arrow keys for player movement - Mouse for camera and interaction control

Fishing Controls : - Left mouse button for general interactions and fishing actions - Space bar or R button to operate the drilling equipment - Reel icons for line control (up/down arrows indicate direction)

Menu Navigation : - O button opens the equipment shop - L button accesses fishing spot selection - B button opens your bait and equipment inventory
