Prompt

MODEL: Seele01-Flash
Please use Three.js to generate a **mobile-first game** with the theme "**Bad Soccer Manager**". Please read the following detailed game design requirements first, and then generate the code accordingly: ### 1. Assets & Environment * **Visual Style:** 2.5D Retro Pixel Art (Orthographic Camera). Use `Three.Sprite` or flat planes for characters and objects to maintain the 8-bit aesthetic seen in the screenshot, but placed in a 3D depth environment. * **Color Palette:** High contrast, saturated colors. Primary colors: Field Green (#00AA00), Bright Yellow (#FFFF00) for UI/Text, and contrasting colors for team jerseys (e.g., Red vs. Blue). * **Environment:** * **The Pitch:** A plane geometry with a shader or texture displaying a classic two-tone green checkerboard or striped grass pattern. * **The Goal:** Simple white pixel-art style goal posts constructed from box geometries (thick lines). * **The Crowd:** Abstract pixelated blobs in the background to simulate a stadium crowd. * **Characters:** Low-resolution pixel art sprites (billboarded to face the camera). The "Manager" character should look like the one in the screenshot (beard, cap, suit). * **Mobile Optimization:** Use simple geometries and low-resolution textures (nearest-neighbor filtering) to ensure 60FPS on mobile browsers. Avoid complex dynamic lighting; use baked ambient light. ### 2. Audio Requirements * **BGM:** A looped, upbeat 8-bit Chiptune track (Nintendo NES style) that sounds slightly "goofy" or comedic to fit the "Bad Manager" theme. * **Sound Effects (SFX):** * **UI:** loud 8-bit "Blips" and "Coin" sounds when money counts up. * **Action:** A crunchy "white noise" thud for kicking the ball. * **Crowd:** Lo-fi "Boo" noise when failing, and a distorted "Cheer" when scoring/saving. * **Whistle:** A synthesized square-wave whistle sound for match start/end. ### 3. Gameplay Loop The game cycles between **Management Decisions** and **Action Mini-games**. * **Phase 1: Management (The "Bad" Decisions):** * The player is presented with a binary choice (e.g., "Bribe the Ref?" or "Sell Star Player for Pizza?"). * Display a pixel-art dialog box. * Choices affect "Team Morale" and "Bank Balance" (displayed at the top). * **Phase 2: The Match (Action):** * **Defend Mode (Goalkeeper):** An opposing striker kicks the ball toward the goal. The ball travels to one of three zones: Left, Center, or Right. The player must move the goalkeeper to the correct zone to block it. * **Attack Mode (Striker):** A classic "Golf/Power Bar" mechanic. A cursor moves back and forth on a bar. The player must stop it in the green zone to score a goal. * **Win/Loss:** Accumulate money to keep your job. If funds drop below zero or you lose 3 matches in a row, show a "YOU ARE FIRED" screen. ### 4. Mobile Controls & Interaction * **Screen Orientation:** **Landscape Mode** (Force landscape UI layout). * **Defend Controls (Replacing Z/X/C):** * Divide the screen into **3 invisible vertical touch zones**. * **Tap Left 1/3 Screen:** Goalie dives Left (equivalent to 'Z'). * **Tap Center 1/3 Screen:** Goalie stands Ground (equivalent to 'X'). * **Tap Right 1/3 Screen:** Goalie dives Right (equivalent to 'C'). * **Attack Controls (Replacing Spacebar):** * **Single Tap Anywhere:** Stops the moving aim/power bar to shoot. * **UI Interaction:** * Large, blocky buttons for menu navigation (minimum 60x60px hit area). * **Feedback:** Screen shake (camera vibration) on impact/goal. Visual flash (white screen overlay opacity) when a goal is scored. Do not ask for clarification. Do not request confirmation. Directly execute the generation task based on the given instructions.
