Prompt

MODEL: Seele01-Flash
Please use Three.js to generate a **mobile-first game** with the theme "**Mini Putt**". Please read the following detailed game design requirements first, and then generate the code accordingly: ### 1. Assets & Environment * **Visual Style**: Low-poly, vibrant "Toy Golf" aesthetic. The courses should look like floating islands set against a bright blue gradient skybox (simulating a sunny day). * **Key Models**: * **Turf**: Flat geometry with a vibrant green texture (using `MeshLambertMaterial` for performance). * **Borders/Walls**: Raised orange or wood-colored bumpers surrounding the turf to keep the ball in play. * **The Ball**: A simple white sphere with high specular highlights to look like a golf ball. * **Obstacles**: Rotating windmill blades (rectangular prisms), static wooden blocks, and "Sand Traps" (yellow patches with high friction). * **Visual Effects (VFX)**: * **Aiming Guide**: A dashed line or a series of glowing yellow dots (instanced meshes) projecting the ball's path, updating in real-time as the player drags. * **Particle System**: Simple confetti particles (`PointsMaterial`) erupting from the hole when the ball sinks. * **Mobile Optimization**: Use a single directional light with simple shadow mapping. Merge static geometries where possible to reduce draw calls. Limit active particle counts. ### 2. Audio Requirements * **BGM**: A relaxing, looping acoustic guitar or light bossa nova track to create a "Zen" atmosphere. * **Sound Effects (SFX)**: * **Putt**: A crisp "thwack" sound varying in volume based on hit power. * **Collision**: A dull wooden "tock" when hitting borders. * **Cup**: A satisfying "rattle" sound when the ball enters the hole. * **Water Hazard**: A splashing sound if the ball falls off the map. * **UI**: Soft clicks for menu buttons. ### 3. Gameplay Loop * **Mechanics**: Turn-based physics simulation. 1. **Aim Phase**: Player drags on the screen to set direction and power. 2. **Action Phase**: Ball moves with applied velocity, affected by friction (deceleration) and restitution (bouncing off walls). 3. **Result Phase**: * *Success*: Ball stops inside the hole (trigger "Hole in One" or "Par" message). Load next level. * *Continue*: Ball stops on grass. Player putts from new location. * *Fail*: Ball falls off the floating island (y < -5). Reset ball to previous position and add +1 penalty stroke. * **Physics**: Implement simple 2D physics logic on the X-Z plane (velocity, friction, collision detection with AABB or bounding spheres) to avoid the overhead of a heavy physics engine like Cannon.js, unless necessary for complex ramps. ### 4. Mobile Controls & Interaction * **Control Scheme**: "Slingshot" or "Pull-Back" mechanic. * **Touch Start**: Detects touch on screen (does not need to be exactly on the ball). * **Touch Move**: Dragging finger backwards charges power; moving left/right rotates the aim angle. Camera should subtly pan to show the destination. * **Touch End**: Releases the shot. * **Screen Orientation**: **Portrait Mode** preferred for one-handed play, but the Camera must be orthographic or high-angle perspective to fit the vertical course layout on mobile screens. * **UI/UX**: * Top HUD: Level Indicator, Current Stroke Count, and PAR goal. * Buttons (Reset, Pause) must be at least 44x44px and placed in the top corners to avoid accidental clicks during putting. * **Haptics**: Trigger `window.navigator.vibrate(50)` when the ball hits a wall and `vibrate(200)` when scoring. Do not ask for clarification. Do not request confirmation. Directly execute the generation task based on the given instructions.

Gameplay Mechanics

Mini Putt combines simple controls with deep strategic gameplay. The objective is straightforward: get your ball into the hole in as few strokes as possible. However, achieving this goal requires mastering the game's physics engine and understanding how different obstacles affect ball movement.

Scoring System

The game uses traditional golf scoring terminology: - Hole-in-One : Complete a hole in one stroke - Under Par : Complete holes in fewer strokes than expected - Par : Complete holes in the expected number of strokes - Over Par : Requires more strokes than the course standard

Strategic Elements

Success in Mini Putt requires: - Angle Calculation : Determine optimal putting angles for complex shots - Power Control : Adjust stroke strength for different distances - Obstacle Navigation : Use moving elements like windmills to your advantage - Bounce Techniques : Master wall bounces and ricochets for trick shots

Operation Guide

Basic Controls

  • Left Click and Hold : Aim your putt by clicking and holding
  • Mouse Movement : Adjust the angle of your shot
  • Release Click : Execute the putt with the selected power and angle

Advanced Techniques

  • Power Control : The longer you hold, the more power you apply
  • Precision Aiming : Use small mouse movements for fine angle adjustments
  • Timing Shots : Wait for moving obstacles to reach optimal positions
  • Bank Shots : Use walls and barriers to reach difficult hole positions

Tips for Success

  1. Study Each Hole : Take time to observe obstacle patterns before putting
  2. Start with Light Touch : Begin with gentle putts to understand ball physics
  3. Use Geometry : Visualize angles and trajectories before shooting
  4. Practice Patience : Wait for the right moment on holes with moving parts
  5. Learn from Mistakes : Each attempt teaches valuable lessons about course mechanics
