MODEL: Seele01-Flash
Please use Three.js to generate a **mobile-first game** with the theme "Arcade Baseball Hero". Please read the following detailed game design requirements first, and then generate the code accordingly: ### 1. Assets & Environment * **Visual Style:** Modernized "Flash" aesthetic using low-poly 3D models with Toon Shading (Cell Shading) to mimic the original vector art style. Bright, saturated colors (emerald green grass, bright blue sky). * **Stadium Geometry:** A curved stadium backdrop using a high-quality texture on a curved plane (to save polygons) representing the crowd and billboards. A 3D dirt mound, home plate, and striped green outfield grass texture. * **Characters:** * **Batter:** Low-poly rigged humanoid (White/Blue jersey). * **Pitcher:** Low-poly rigged humanoid (Grey/Green jersey) on the mound. * **Fielder:** Simplified "cardboard cutout" or low-detail mesh for the outfield target area. * **UI/Overlay:** A semi-transparent yellow dashed rectangle representing the "Strike Zone" floating above home plate. A 3D crosshair reticle that follows the ball's incoming trajectory. * **Performance:** Use instanced mesh for any repetitive geometry. Texture atlas for all stadium ads. Limit draw calls for mobile GPU efficiency. ### 2. Audio Requirements * **BGM:** A looping, upbeat "stadium organ" tune mixed with a low-volume ambient track of crowd murmuring. * **SFX:** * **Bat Contact:** A crisp, satisfying "crack" sound (randomize pitch slightly for variety). * **Swing & Miss:** A "whoosh" air sound. * **Catch/Glove:** A loud leather "pop" sound. * **Crowd:** Swell in volume for hits; "Aww" sound for strikes/outs. * **Announcer:** A synthesized voice saying "Strike!", "Ball!", or "Home Run!". ### 3. Gameplay Loop * **The Pitch:** The camera sits behind the batter. The pitcher winds up and throws a ball. The ball travels in 3D space with a randomized curve or speed towards the strike zone. * **The Swing:** * The player must time their input to match the ball crossing home plate. * **Physics Logic:** * **Hit:** If the swing timing is within a 200ms window AND the vertical aim is correct -> Launch ball into outfield. * **Launch Angle Calculation:** Based on the touch Y-position relative to the ball. Touching *below* the ball center creates a "Pop Fly" (high arc). Touching *above* creates a "Grounder". Touching *center* creates a "Line Drive". * **Scoring:** * **Distance:** Calculate distance traveled. > 300ft = Home Run. * **Targets (Arcade Mode):** Place 3 distinct bullseye targets in the outfield. Hitting near them awards bonus points. * **Win/Loss:** The player gets 10 pitches. Score is accumulated based on hit distance and target accuracy. ### 4. Mobile Controls & Interaction * **Input Method:** **"Vertical Touch Aiming"**. * The screen is treated as the swing plane. * The player does not need to drag a cursor. Instead, they simply **Tap** the screen when the ball arrives. * **X-Axis:** Auto-aligned (simplified for mobile fun). * **Y-Axis:** The Y-coordinate of the tap determines the height of the bat swing. * **Screen Orientation:** Landscape Mode (Force landscape to maximize the field of view). * **Feedback:** * **Haptic:** Trigger `navigator.vibrate(50)` on ball contact. * **Visual:** Camera slightly shakes (screen shake) on Home Runs. A "Perfect!" text pops up on center-hits. * **UI Elements:** Large, thumb-friendly "Pause" button (top right, minimum 44x44px). Scoreboard prominently displayed in the center top, integrated into the stadium art. Do not ask for clarification. Do not request confirmation. Directly execute the generation task based on the given instructions.
