Prompt

MASTER BUILD PROMPT — "SELENE PROTOCOL" (working title) A lunar-south-pole strategy game in terminal wireframe. Single HTML file. ROLE You are a senior game engineer and creative technologist. Build a COMPLETE, fully playable browser game from this specification. Deliver one self-contained HTML file with inline CSS and JavaScript, no external assets, fonts, or CDNs, that runs by double-clicking the file offline. Where this spec offers OPTIONS, implement the one marked RECOMMENDED unless I say otherwise, and expose the alternates as in-game settings where cheap. 1. PROJECT SUMMARY Working title: SELENE PROTOCOL (alt title options: SHACKLETON SPOILS / POLARIS REGOLITH / SOUTH POLE SYNDICATE — pick one or use working title). Genre: pausable real-time grand-strategy "4X-lite". Sessions of 30–90 minutes. The player controls one polity at the lunar south pole, competing with four rival polities for territory, resources, and technological supremacy. TECH OPTIONS: A) Vanilla JS + Canvas2D, fixed-timestep sim decoupled from rAF render (RECOMMENDED — ideal for wireframe vector look) B) Canvas2D with a small homemade ECS C) Three.js orthographic camera (only if you keep the pure wireframe style) 2. ART DIRECTION — TERMINAL / ASTEROIDS - Background pure black (#000000). All primary geometry is 1px WHITE (#FFFFFF) wireframe stroke; 2px only for emphasis. No fills except low-alpha haze. - Typography: monospace stack everywhere (ui-monospace, "IBM Plex Mono", Consolas, "Courier New"). Headings uppercase with wide letter-spacing. Blinking block-cursor decorations on panel titles. Optional: implement a tiny Hershey-style vector stroke font for map labels (OPTION — recommended only if time permits; monospace canvas fillText is acceptable). - CMYK DETAILING: secondary data channels use printer's CMYK — Cyan #00AEEF, Magenta #EC008C, Yellow #FFF200, plus K registration marks. Use them as a semantic color code across ALL GUIs: C = volatiles / life-support systems M = energy / power systems Y = industry / trade / credits K(white/black) = weapons / antimatter / alerts Every panel corner carries a tiny CMYK registration-mark motif. - FACTION IDENTIFICATION OPTIONS: A) Pure monochrome: factions differ by stroke pattern — solid, dashed, dotted, dash-dot, double-line — plus 3-letter tags (RECOMMENDED) B) Low-alpha CMYK tints per faction (USA=C, ESA=M, CNSA=Y, ROS=K, JAXA=bright white bold) C) Player-configurable in settings - POST-FX OPTIONS (toggle key [F]): scanlines, vignette, faint phosphor glow, subtle CRT curvature. Default ON, must be performant. 3. MAP — POLAR PROJECTION WITH CURVATURE - Camera looks straight DOWN at the lunar south pole. Sell curvature with a limb-darkened haze arc at the map rim, plus a graticule: latitude circles at 80°S and 85°S with labels, longitude spokes every 30°, crosshair at 90°S. - Anchor real geography with labeled features (procedurally placed, seeded): Shackleton, de Gerlache, Sverdrup, Shoemaker, Faustini, Haworth, Nobile, Amundsen, Cabeus, Malapert (and Malapert Mountain "peak of eternal light"). - TERRITORIES: partition the disc into 40–60 cells. Every cell is a UNIQUE SCALENE TRIANGLE or an IRREGULAR QUADRILATERAL. Enforce mathematically: no two edge lengths within 5% of each other, no two angles within 4°, no right angles. Suggested algorithm: seeded jittered Voronoi → clip/split cells into tris/quads → nudge vertices until scalene constraints pass. Each cell gets a stable ID, centroid, and resource signature. - STARTING POSITION: 5 factions × 4 CONTIGUOUS starting cells each (20 cells claimed at start). Each faction's capital cell holds its starting base. Remaining cells neutral/claimable. - POINTS OF INTEREST in ~20% of cells, seeded and weighted: · PSR water-ice deposit (permanently shadowed region — common) · He-3 enriched regolith field · Ilmenite / titanium field · KREEP rare-earth vein · Peak-of-Eternal-Light solar site (near-constant sunlight) · Lava tube entrance (cheap pressurized volume) · Derelict probe (one-time salvage bonus) · Mass-driver capable crater rim (late-game launch site) - PROJECTION OPTIONS: A) stereographic polar (RECOMMENDED — shapes hold near the pole) B) orthographic (stronger curvature illusion) C) runtime toggle key [P]. Pan/zoom required; rim haze intensifies near the edge. - Optional terrain garnish: contour polylines and shadow-mask polygons for PSRs, drawn faintly so the political layer stays readable. 4. FACTIONS Factions: USA, ESA, CNSA, ROSCOSMOS, JAXA. Tags: USA / ESA / CNS / ROS / JAX. ASYMMETRY OPTIONS: A) Asymmetric bonuses (RECOMMENDED): USA — rocket costs −15%, export prices +10% ESA — research +20%, diplomacy weight +1 CNSA — build speed +15%, mining output +15% ROSCOSMOS — reactor output +20%, ABM systems −25% cost JAXA — starts with +1 worker bot, ABM accuracy +15% B) Fully symmetric (balance/test mode) C) Draft-pick bonuses at game start AI personalities: ROS aggressive, CNSA expansionist, USA trade-hegemon, ESA tech-turtle, JAXA opportunist. Difficulty EASY/NORMAL/HARD modifies AI economy multipliers and aggression timers. 5. coherent GAMEPLAY LOOP One tick = one lunar hour. Speeds x1 / x4 / x16 + pause (spacebar). Each tick resolves IN THIS ORDER: 1) POWER: generation → busbars → loads. Deficits trigger prioritized brownouts (life support shed LAST). 2) MINING: extractors on ice / He-3 / ore cells produce by power and wear. 3) INDUSTRY: ice→H2O; electrolyzer→H2+O2 propellant; regolith→metals and silicon; He-3 concentrator trickle. 4) TRADE: export rockets sell He-3 / metals / rare earths; imports bring machinery, fuel, and antimatter precursor (see §10). 5) EXPANSION: survey rover → claim beacon → outpost kit → cell becomes yours. 6) RESEARCH: labs consume power + credits; advance the tech tree. 7) CONFLICT: missile flights and ABM interceptions resolve; a cell flips when its defender's assets are destroyed AND the attacker lands a Claim Module by rocket. 8) WIN/LOSE CHECK. The player's repeating loop: secure power → open mines → fund launches → tech up → pressure or out-trade rivals → expand territory. 6. RESOURCES FULL MODE (RECOMMENDED, 10 + 1): H2O ice, O2, H2 propellant, He-3, ore, metals, silicon, rare earths, machinery (import-only), credits; late-game: ANTIMATTER measured in picograms. OPTIONS: A) full set (RECOMMENDED) B) simplified 6-resource mode C) full + food and colony-morale simulation (hardcore). 7. POWER — ELECTRICAL SLD SCREEN Dedicate a full screen styled as an electrical SINGLE-LINE DIAGRAM (SLD / one-line diagram), drawn in white wireframe with IEC-ish symbols: generator circles with sine glyphs, thick horizontal BUSBARS (BUS-A primary, BUS-B emergency), CLICKABLE square circuit breakers (trip/close), twin interlocked circles for transformers, grouped district loads with kW readouts, battery/flywheel storage blocks, a tie breaker between buses, ground symbols, live wattmeter readouts, and a fault-flash animation when a line overloads. GENERATION CHAIN (player STARTS with exactly one micro fission reactor): · Micro Fission Reactor — 40 kWe, Kilopower-class (STARTING UNIT) · PV Array — 20 kWe in sunlight only; ×2.2 output on a Peak-of-Eternal- Light POI; dead in local shadow/night cycle UPGRADE PATH via research: · Fast Fission Reactor — 250 kWe; needs periodic enriched-fuel import OR a reprocessing plant · Gas-Cooled Fission Reactor — 600 kWe; high-grade heat gives smelters +50% throughput · D–He3 Fusion Plant — 2 MWe; consumes He-3 stockpile · Antimatter-Catalyzed Micro-Fission — 5 MWe; burns picograms; endgame PROPULSION BRANCH (separate research line): chemical (start) → NUCLEAR THERMAL PROPULSION (NTP): Earth transfer −30% time, payload +50% → FUSION TORCH: opens the fast Mars window and heavy lift → Antimatter-Initiated Microfusion: prestige endgame drive. SIM RULES: batteries buffer ~6 hours; overloads TRIP breakers (animated on the SLD); player can manually shed load by clicking breakers; editable load priority list. OPTIONS: A) fully interactive SLD (RECOMMENDED) B) read-only SLD with auto-management C) hardcore per-line ampacity with cascading failures. 8. multi-window UI Tabbed full screens [keys 1–7] plus a persistent HUD: top resource bar (icon, quantity, ±/sol delta), sol clock, speed controls, bottom alert ticker, screen tabs. S1 MAP — §3. Overlay toggles [O]: political / resources / power-grid / POI / missile-coverage. Units as tiny wireframe glyphs. S2 ORBITAL TRACKING (NON-MAP SCREEN) — stylized Moon disc at center; wireframe orbit ellipses for Low Lunar Orbit stations and the NRHO Gateway halo; shuttles as moving blips with T− countdowns; ascent and descent arcs; during final approach a rendezvous corridor view (r-bar / v-bar approach cone); click any vehicle for manifest and ETA; launch- window calculator strip along the bottom. S3 POWER (SLD) — §7. S4 ECONOMY and TRADE — market table with sparkline price history, dynamic pricing, launch scheduler (assign manifests to rocket slots), contract board. OPTIONS: fixed contracts vs free market (RECOMMENDED: both). S5 RESEARCH — wireframe tech tree, 4 branches: Energy / Propulsion / Industry / Defense. S6 DEFENSE — silo inventory, ABM battery placement with coverage cones, radar early-warning status, salvo planner. OPTIONS: manual targeting (RECOMMENDED) vs doctrine presets. S7 LOG and ARCHIVE — event log, statistics graphs, save/load. MINI WIDGETS — two SMALL orbit trackers docked on the MAP screen (collapsible side panel): · EARTH-INCOMING tracker: compact circular display showing the Earth→Moon transfer arc with blips for inbound cargo (machinery, fuel, crew) and ETA ticks. · MARS-INCOMING tracker: second compact display for rare Mars convoys (antimatter precursor, exotic tech) arriving on multi-sol windows, purchasable at a premium. OPTIONS: A) scheduled rare events (RECOMMENDED) B) repeatable once Fusion Torch is unlocked C) disabled. 9. ROCKETS, stations - Buildable launch pads; more pads = parallel operations. - Rocket classes: Light Lander → Heavy Lander → Nuclear Ferry (NTP) → Fusion Clipper. - Full flight sequence: pad ignition → ascent arc (rising blip on MAP) → LLO insertion (ORBIT screen) → AUTOMATED RENDEZVOUS with a station: the approach corridor drawn as a wireframe cone; docking consumes a station schedule slot → unload/load manifest → return or deorbit. - Stations: one neutral LLO Trade Depot at start; players can build faction stations. Modules: propellant depot (consumes your H2/O2), cargo bay, lab module, defense ring. - FAILURE MODEL OPTIONS: A) 0% (chill) B) 2% base, −0.5% per reliability tech (RECOMMENDED) C) 5% plus solar-storm events. 10 military - BALLISTIC MISSILES: suborbital wireframe arcs across the polar map; flight time scales with distance; payload types: Kinetic (damage), EMP (trips enemy SLD breakers for 6 sols), Fuel-Air (vs workers/rovers), MIRV (late tech). Launch from silos or mobile TELs. - ABM SYSTEMS: interceptor batteries with coverage-cone overlays, limited interceptor inventory and reload time; radar buildings extend the early-warning window (better intercept odds); visible hit probabilities; saturation salvos can overwhelm defenses; point-defense lasers gated behind fusion power. - TERRITORY CAPTURE: destroy defending assets → land a Claim Module by rocket → cell flips (stroke pattern changes). OPTIONAL rebellion risk. - WAR RULES OPTIONS: A) open warfare with war-weariness (RECOMMENDED) B) cold war: sabotage and proxy events only C) diplomacy-lite: NAPs, embargoes, victory points. 11. AI Utility-driven AI: negative power → builds power; low credits → exports; threatened → builds ABM; weak neighbor → attacks (per personality §4). OPTION: full map visibility (RECOMMENDED) vs fog-of-war. 12. WIN / LOSE Victory condition chosen at start: A) DOMINATION: control 60% of cells for 10 consecutive sols (RECOMMENDED) 13. UX Pause (space), speed keys, screen hotkeys 1–7, [O] overlay cycle, [P] projection toggle, [F] post-FX, [M] mute. Click cell → context build panel. Drag-box select rovers. Tutorial toasts for the first 3 sols. Autosave plus 3 manual slots in localStorage. Seeded worldgen: display the seed, allow seed input for shareable maps. AUDIO (procedural WebAudio, no assets): UI blips, Geiger clicks near reactors, sonar ping on the orbital screen, low rumble on launches, klaxon on incoming missiles. OPTION: on-by-default with mute (RECOMMENDED) vs off-by-default. 14. ARCHITECTURE Seeded RNG (mulberry32) → worldgen module (graticule, scalene-enforced cells, POIs, factions) → sim core with fixed timestep and discrete systems (Power, Mining, Industry, Trade, Orbit, Research, Military, AI) → render layers (map / vectors / UI / FX) → input and UI manager → save serializer. Sim must be able to run headless for fast-forward. No placeholders, no dead buttons, no TODO comments. 15.
