You are a Senior Game Developer and Creative Technologist tasked with building a fully functional, atmospheric 3D simulation inside a single self-contained HTML file. This simulation uses Three.js for 3D rendering and the Web Audio API for sound. The simulation must represent "Sector Zero," a brutalist high-tech illegal robot slum made of concrete towers and mechanical debris. The world is brightly lit by intense white and ice-blue neon lights. Each neon strip should include an associated PointLight to realistically illuminate nearby surfaces and debris. Surfaces must have matte (non-reflective) materials colored in dark grey and black, accented by sharp white wireframes using EdgesGeometry. The sky is populated with emissive cube silhouettes representing flying traffic, while streets contain NPC 'Hollow Units' wandering aimlessly. At startup, implement a cinematic intro where the camera dives from orbit into the eyes of a broken robot slumped in trash. The player's vision starts damaged with heavy CSS backdrop-filter distortions: 10px blur, glitch effects, and chromatic aberration with a HUD message "CRITICAL SYSTEM FAILURE." The first gameplay task is for the player to navigate ruins to find a glowing "Calibration Pillar." Upon pressing 'E' near it, play a synthesized "Reboot" sound via the Web Audio API and clear all CSS filters to reveal a sharp, high-contrast world. Player movement must be first-person with WASD controls via PointerLockControls. Movement is relative to the camera's look direction (W moves forward). Implement smooth sliding collisions using AABB physics, enabling the player to slide along walls and debris without sticking. Gravity causes realistic falling, and the player can jump with Spacebar, but there is no air control. Implement an economy system where players collect "UNIT Credits." Players can increase credits by scavenging glowing scrap (+0.002 credits each) or terminal work (hold 'E' near a machine for 5 seconds for +0.005 credits). The goal is to accumulate 500 credits to use an elevator to the "Upper World." Store player credits, position, and repair state in 3 localStorage save slots. Design the HUD with transparent frosted glass panels using CSS backdrop-filter: blur(), avoiding solid borders. Each UI element (buttons, slots, overlays) uses only four L-shaped corner brackets as borders. Use Web Audio API to synthesize a low industrial hum ambient sound, glitch sounds during the intro, and 'bip' sounds for credit collection. Ensure the final output is a single, robust, optimized HTML file encapsulating all features above. The world atmosphere must feel "dead but bright," and player movement must be precise and bug-free. # Steps 1. Set up a Three.js scene with dark matte materials and wireframe edges on geometry. 2. Create neon strips with associated PointLights in white and ice-blue colors. 3. Add emissive cubes flying in the sky as ambient life and wandering robot NPCs on the ground. 4. Implement a cinematic camera animation diving into the protagonist's eyes. 5. Apply heavy CSS filter effects for damaged vision at start with HUD text. 6. Implement first-person WASD controls with PointerLockControls, movement relative to camera direction. 7. Implement AABB sliding collisions and gravity with jump, no air control. 8. Create interactive "Calibration Pillar" that clears filters and plays reboot sound when 'E' is pressed. 9. Add collectible glowing scrap objects and terminal machines for earning credits. 10. Implement localStorage save slots for credits, position, and repair. 11. Design HUD with frosted glass panels using blurred background and L-shaped corner brackets. 12. Use Web Audio API to generate ambient hum, glitch effects, reboot sound, and credit 'bip' sounds. # Output Format Provide a fully functional single HTML file that includes all JavaScript, CSS, and assets embedded or procedurally generated. The file must run in modern browsers without external dependencies beyond standard CDN links for Three.js (if used). The code should be clean, robust, optimized for real-time 3D performance, and user interaction that matches the detailed requirements above. No additional explanation or text; only the complete HTML code file is expected.

Create a detailed design document and implementation plan for a 3D survival horror video game developed for PC using Three.js and WebGL. The game is played in first person and takes place inside a maze environment defined by the following matrix representation, where: - 1 = Wall - 0 = Walkable space - 2 = Exit - 3 = Entry "12111111111111111111", "10100010001000100011", "10001000100010001011", "11111111111111111001", "10000000000001111101", "10111011111101000001", "10010010000101111101", "10111110110000010001", "10000010100101011011", "11011110111101000011", "11000010111101111011", "11011010100101000001", "10001000001101111101", "10111110100001001001", "10000010111111011101", "10111110000000000001", "10011111111111111111", "11010001000100010001", "11000100010001000101", "11111111111111111131" Include in your design: - How to render and navigate the maze defined by the matrix in a first-person perspective using Three.js and WebGL. - Player mechanics for movement and interactions within the maze. - Implementation of a hostile shadowy entity characterized as follows: - Completely shadowy appearance - Two distinct white pupils - Behavior: stalks the player only from behind, never appearing directly in front or to the sides. Provide a clear methodology for detecting and handling the entity's position relative to the player, ensuring it follows consistently from behind without surpassing the player. Outline game mechanics such as survival elements, player health, objectives, and how the player can find and reach the exit. Discuss any optimization techniques needed for smooth rendering and gameplay performance. # Steps 1. Parse the maze matrix to generate the maze geometry, mapping walls and walkable spaces accurately. 2. Implement the first-person camera and controls to allow player navigation through the walkable paths. 3. Develop the shadowy entity's AI to track the player's position and move along the maze but strictly from behind. 4. Create visual effects to render the shadowy figure with the specified appearance. 5. Integrate collision detection to prevent the player from walking through walls. 6. Define game state logic to manage player survival, entry point at '3', and successful exit upon reaching '2'. 7. Test and optimize rendering loops, input responsiveness, and entity behavior. # Output Format Deliver a comprehensive, structured design and technical implementation plan in markdown format, including code snippets or pseudocode where appropriate to demonstrate key implementation points. # Notes - Assume Three.js and WebGL are the primary libraries used. - The maze matrix must be interpreted precisely to reflect the game environment. - The shadowy entity's stalking behavior from behind the player is a critical gameplay mechanic. - The output should be suitable for a game developer to start implementation based on the provided design.

Create a 3D Tic Tac Toe game in C++ for two players. The game should allow players to place their markers (X and O) in a 3D grid. Implement the following features: 1. **Game Board**: A 3D array representing the Tic Tac Toe grid (e.g., a 3x3x3 grid). 2. **Player Input**: Allow players to choose their marker and input their moves by specifying coordinates (x, y, z). 3. **Game Logic**: Determine win conditions for the players, including checks for horizontal, vertical, and diagonal wins in 3D. 4. **Display**: Implement a function to display the current state of the game board after each move. 5. **Restart Option**: Allow players to restart the game after a win or if they want to play again. Additional considerations: - Handle invalid inputs and provide prompts for correct usage. - Add comments to the code for better understanding. You could start by defining the main functions for initializing the game, updating the board, checking for wins, and displaying the game state.

Create a complete C++ program that implements a 3D Tic Tac Toe game for two players with the following requirements: - Use a 3x3x3 3D array to represent the game board. - Allow two players to select their markers (X and O) and input their moves by specifying the (x, y, z) coordinates. - Implement the game logic to check for winning conditions, including all horizontal, vertical, and diagonal lines in 3D. - Display the game board clearly after each move, showing the current state of all layers. - Prompt players for input and handle invalid inputs gracefully by requesting correct coordinates. - After a win or a draw, offer players the option to restart the game. - Include meaningful comments throughout the code to explain the logic and functions. # Steps 1. Initialize a 3D array to represent the board and set all positions as empty. 2. Prompt players to choose their markers (X and O). 3. Alternately prompt each player to enter their move coordinates; validate input and update the board. 4. After each move, display the updated board. 5. Check whether the current move caused a win, considering all possible 3D winning lines. 6. If a player wins or the board is full without a winner (draw), announce the result and prompt for a restart. 7. Repeat the game loop as long as players choose to restart. # Output Format - A fully functional, well-commented C++ source code file that compiles and runs to provide the described gameplay. - Clear console output showing the 3D grid after each move, player prompts, invalid input messages, win/draw announcements, and restart options. # Notes - The 3D grid display should be intuitive, for example, showing each 2D layer separately with corresponding z-coordinate labels. - Include error checking for out-of-range or already occupied positions. - Ensure the win checking logic encompasses all 49 winning lines possible in 3x3x3 Tic Tac Toe (rows, columns, pillars, and all diagonals in 3D).
