Prompt

MODEL: Seele01-Flash
Please use Three.js to generate a **mobile-first game** with the theme "**Scary Maze (Mobile Remake)**". Please read the following detailed game design requirements first, and then generate the code accordingly: ### 1. Assets & Environment * **Visual Style**: strictly **Retro/Minimalist 2.5D**. Use an OrthographicCamera looking top-down to simulate the classic 2D Flash game look but with WebGL performance. * **Color Palette**: * **Background**: Pure Black (#000000) representing the "walls" (danger zone). * **Maze Path**: Bright Neon Cyan (#00FFFF) or Teal. Add a slight `Emissive` material property to make it glow like a retro monitor. * **Goal Area**: Bright Red (#FF0000) rectangle at the end of the path. * **Player Avatar**: A small white or yellow square (`BoxGeometry`). * **The "Scare" Asset**: Create a hidden HTML `<div>` overlay containing a frightening image (e.g., a placeholder URL for a "scary face" or "exorcist face") that is `display: none` by default. This will cover the entire screen when triggered. * **Optimization**: Use a single merged geometry for the maze walls if possible to reduce draw calls, or simple `PlaneGeometry` for the path. ### 2. Audio Requirements * **BGM (Background Music)**: **Deceptive Silence**. There should be NO music or extremely faint, low-frequency static hum to encourage the player to turn their device volume UP. * **SFX (Sound Effects)**: * **Wall Hit**: A harsh, retro "electric buzz" or static noise when the player touches the black area. * **Level Clear**: A subtle, satisfying "ding" or generic 8-bit success sound. * **The Jump Scare**: A high-decibel, piercing **SCREAM** audio file. This is the most critical asset. It must trigger instantly upon the specific fail-state or completion of Level 3. ### 3. Gameplay Loop * **Level Progression**: The game consists of 3 levels. * **Level 1**: Wide paths, easy to navigate. * **Level 2**: Paths get narrower, more turns. * **Level 3**: Extremely narrow, winding path. * **Core Mechanic**: The player moves the avatar. The avatar must stay strictly within the Cyan Path. * **Collision Logic**: * If the Avatar's bounding box exits the Cyan Path (touches Black): Reset the avatar to the "Start" position of the current level instantly. * If the Avatar touches the Red Zone: Load the next level. * **The Twist (The Scare)**: On **Level 3**, just before the player reaches the Red Goal (or if they traverse 90% of the path), strictly override the game loop: 1. Instantaneously display the "Scare Image" overlay (full screen). 2. Play the "Scream" audio at max volume. 3. Vibrate the device heavily. 4. Freeze the game (Game Over). ### 4. Mobile Controls & Interaction * **Screen Orientation**: Force **Landscape Mode** logic (if the user is in portrait, show a "Please Rotate Device" prompt). The maze is wide. * **Control Scheme**: **Relative Touch Drag** (Offset Mode). * Since the player's finger covers the screen, the Avatar should NOT be directly under the finger. * **Offset Logic**: The Avatar follows the finger's movement but stays roughly 50-100 pixels *above* the touch point (Y-axis offset) so the player has full visibility of the maze ahead. * **Sensitivity**: 1:1 movement. If the finger moves 10px, the avatar moves 10px. * **Haptic Feedback**: * Short vibration (100ms) on wall collision. * Long, pulsed vibration (1000ms+) during the Jump Scare. * **UI Layout**: Minimalist. "Level X" text in simple white sans-serif font floating in the black void, non-intrusive. Do not ask for clarification. Do not request confirmation. Directly execute the generation task based on the given instructions.

Game Introduction

About Scary Maze Game

Scary Maze is the original, iconic maze game that has thrilled and terrified players worldwide for years. This deceptively simple horror game combines precision gameplay with unexpected jump scares, creating an unforgettable gaming experience. Navigate through retro-style maze levels using only your mouse, but be prepared - this game might just change your life.

The game starts innocently enough with simple maze navigation, but as you progress through the levels, the walls become narrower and the tension builds. What makes this game truly memorable is its masterful use of psychological tension and surprise elements that have made it a viral internet phenomenon.

Core Features

Classic Horror Gaming Experience

Scary Maze delivers authentic retro horror gaming with its minimalist design and maximum impact scares. The game's simple black background and colorful maze paths create a stark, focused environment that builds suspense.

Progressive Difficulty System

Each level increases in complexity: - Level 1 : Wide paths for easy navigation and confidence building - Level 2 : Narrower passages requiring more precision - Level 3 : The infamous challenging level that tests even skilled players - Beyond : Additional levels with extreme precision requirements

Precision-Based Gameplay

Success requires extraordinary mouse control and steady nerves. The slightest touch of the maze walls will trigger consequences, making every movement critical. This precision requirement creates intense focus and heightened tension.

Audio-Enhanced Experience

The game features carefully crafted audio design that enhances the suspense. Sound effects and atmospheric audio cues build tension and amplify the overall horror experience.

Game Mechanics

Navigation System

Players control a small colored square (typically red or blue) through maze pathways. The objective is simple: reach the end of each level without touching the walls. However, the execution becomes increasingly challenging as maze corridors narrow.

Skill Development

The game naturally develops: - Mouse precision : Fine motor control improvement - Concentration : Sustained focus under pressure - Patience : Learning to move slowly and deliberately - Stress management : Maintaining composure during tense moments

Operation Guide

Basic Controls

  • Mouse Movement : Control the square's position within the maze
  • Steady Motion : Move slowly and deliberately for best results
  • Wall Avoidance : Maintain distance from maze boundaries
  • Audio : Keep sound enabled for the complete experience

Winning Strategy

The most effective approach is to: 1. Start Slowly : Rush leads to mistakes and wall contact 2. Focus on Level 3 : This level requires special attention and skill 3. Stay Centered : Keep your cursor in the middle of pathways 4. Take Breaks : If tension builds, pause and restart with fresh focus 5. Record Reactions : Many players enjoy capturing their responses

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Moving too quickly through narrow sections
  • Panicking when paths become tight
  • Ignoring audio cues and atmosphere
  • Attempting to rush through difficult sections
