MODEL: Seele01-Flash
Please use Three.js to generate a **mobile-first game** with the theme "**Taxi Rush: Urban Arcade Racer**". Please read the following detailed game design requirements first, and then generate the code accordingly: ### 1. Assets & Environment * **Visual Style**: Vibrant, Arcade Low-Poly style. High saturation colors (bright yellow taxi, blue sky, grey asphalt). Use simple unlit or standard materials with toon-shading elements to ensure high performance on mobile devices. * **Player Character**: A chunky, retro-style yellow taxi cab. Separate meshes for the wheels to animate rotation and steering. Add a "TAXI" light on the roof that glows. * **Environment**: An endless or looped city grid. * **Roads**: Multi-lane streets with clear markings. * **Buildings**: Varied height skyscrapers block-outs (low poly cubes with window textures) lining the streets to create a "canyon" effect. * **Obstacles**: Other simple low-poly cars (traffic) moving at slower speeds, traffic cones, and barriers. * **Particles**: Smoke puffs when drifting/braking, and spark particles upon collision. * **Camera**: A smooth Third-Person Follow Camera. It should lag slightly behind the car to give a sense of speed and acceleration. * **Mobile Optimization**: Use `InstancedMesh` for repeated objects like buildings and trees. Keep the total triangle count under 50k per scene. Limit dynamic lights to 1 (Sun/Directional Light) and use baked ambient lighting. ### 2. Audio Requirements * **BGM**: Fast-paced, upbeat Jazz-Funk or Arcade Rock track (loopable) that encourages speed. * **Sound Effects (SFX)**: * **Engine**: Pitch-modulated engine hum based on speed. * **Tires**: Screeching sound when turning sharply (drifting). * **Interaction**: A "Ding" or "Cha-ching" sound when picking up/dropping off passengers. * **Collision**: Comical thud or metallic crunch for impacts. * **UI**: Crisp clicks for menu buttons. ### 3. Gameplay Loop * **Objective**: Pick up passengers (highlighted by green zones) and deliver them to destinations (highlighted by yellow zones) within a strict time limit to earn cash. * **Mechanics**: * **The Timer**: The game fights against a countdown clock. Successfully dropping off a passenger adds +10 seconds to the clock. * **Traffic System**: AI cars move in lanes. Hitting them slows the player down and reduces the "Tip" bonus. * **Score**: Based on distance traveled and speed of delivery. * **Win/Loss Condition**: * **Loss**: Timer reaches 0. * **Win/Endless**: The game tracks the High Score (Total Cash Earned) before time runs out. ### 4. Mobile Controls & Interaction * **Orientation**: **Landscape Mode**. * **Control Scheme (Virtual On-Screen UI)**: * **Left Thumb**: A virtual **Joystick** or D-Pad for steering (Left/Right). It must auto-center when released. * **Right Thumb**: Two large distinct buttons. * **Gas Pedal**: Hold to accelerate. * **Brake/Reverse**: Hold to brake or reverse. * **Touch Feedback**: Implement simple visual feedback (button scaling) when pressed. If possible, trigger `navigator.vibrate(50)` on collisions. * **UI Layout**: * **Top Left**: Time Remaining (Large font). * **Top Right**: Current Cash/Score. * **Center Top**: A simple 3D Arrow pointer indicating the direction of the next objective (Passenger/Destination). * **Pause Button**: Top corner, minimum 44x44px touch area. Do not ask for clarification. Do not request confirmation. Directly execute the generation task based on the given instructions.
