We need to create index.html containing a self-contained Phaser 3 top-down alien shooter. Use only procedural graphics; can use Phaser's shapes and graphics. We need to load phaser.min.js file in same dir. Build minimal but functional.
We need to write index.html.
Plan: Basic structure: HTML with <style>, <script>. In script, create Phaser.Game with config: width 800 height 600.
Scene: MainScene.
Player: circle or rectangle sprite created via graphics, or use a simple sprite from built-in? Since no external assets, we can create a texture via graphics and render to texture, or use shape objects (e.g., this.add.rectangle). But we need to fire projectiles; could use simple shapes.
Implement player movement with cursors WASD.
Implement aiming: mouse pointer to aim. Fire on mouse click. Projectiles travel towards target direction.
Aliens: spawn waves; each wave spawns multiple enemies that move towards player. Use simple colored squares or circles.
Health: player has health, displayed in UI overlay text.
Score: increase when kill alien.
Increasing difficulty: each wave spawn more aliens or speed up.
Game over: if health <=0, show 'Game Over'.
Implement a simple physics: use arcade physics.
Procedural graphics: use this.add.rectangle or this.add.circle with fill color.
Use pointer events for aiming and shooting.
Let's write the code. We'll use Phaser 3. We'll load phaser.min.js locally.
Create a single index.html file with everything.
Let's create index.html content. We'll use a <style> to center canvas maybe.
Implement.
We need to ensure use of Phaser global.
Let's write.
Also include a simple text for score, health.
Let's code.
We'll use script with 'window.addEventListener("load", () => {...})'.
We'll create config: type: Phaser.AUTO, width: 800, height: 600, physics: { default: 'arcade' }.
Create MainScene with preload? None. create: add player sprite, group for bullets, group for aliens.
Add input: cursors via this.input.keyboard.createCursorKeys(); but WASD.
Add pointer: this.input.on('pointerdown', fire).
Define player health 3.
Aliens: spawn with timer event.
Define difficulty: after each wave, increase count or speed.
Implement update: move player based on keys.
Alien movement: move towards player each frame.
Bullets: move along velocity; check collision with aliens.
When alien hits player, reduce health.
Game over: stop scene, show text.
Let's produce code.
We need to use Phaser's add.image? But no texture; so we use graphics to create a texture for player, bullet, alien. Or directly add shapes: this.add.rectangle returns a GameObject that can be added to physics? Use physics.add.existing.
Better: create simple shapes and convert to texture. Example:
const graphics = this.make.graphics({x:0,y:0, add: false});
graphics.fillStyle(0x00ff00,1); graphics.fillCircle(0,0,20); graphics.generateTexture('player', 40,40); graphics.destroy();
Similarly bullet: 5x5 rectangle.
Aliens: red circle.
Ok.
Let's write code accordingly.
We'll write HTML file with style: body { margin:0; overflow:hidden; }
Script: all code.
Let's produce final output.index.html (5064 bytes)Successfully wrote 5064 bytes to index.html

We wrote index.html file. Need to ensure no external resources. We used phaser.min.js, but we referenced it via <script src="phaser.min.js"></script>. It's in current directory. Good. Need to ensure that we didn't use any other external assets.
We used inline CSS and JS, yes.
Potential issues: Phaser reference before defined? We defined MainScene before config referencing MainScene variable; but we referenced MainScene before defined? We defined function MainScene after config? Let's check: we set config with scene: [MainScene] but MainScene is defined below. In JS, function declarations are hoisted, but we defined MainScene as a function expression? We did "function MainScene(){ Phaser.Scene.call(this, { key: 'MainScene' }); }" That is a function declaration, hoisted. Then we set prototype etc. That's fine.
But we used this.player = this.physics.add.sprite... within create; but we didn't set player origin? Not needed.
Also we used this.add.text etc. Good.
Edge cases: We use this.input.on('pointerdown',this.fireBullet,this); The fireBullet uses pointer.worldX? pointer.worldX might be undefined? In Phaser 3, pointer has worldX, worldY. Good.
But we need to add ability to aim with mouse? The spec said move with WASD, aim and fire at waves. We implemented clicking to fire. Maybe also use mouse movement for aim? But not necessary.
Also need to ensure bullet rotation is correct: We set rotation angle+PI/2? Might be off; but okay.
Need to ensure we handle off-screen removal correctly. We used children.each. Good.
We didn't include a 'difficulty increase' aside from alien count and speed. Good.
We should maybe limit player health display after death.
Check missing CSS: body margin 0, background #000, etc. Good.
Now produce final answer.Here is a single‑file top‑down alien shooter that uses only procedural graphics and no external assets. Save the following as **`index.html`** in the current directory (the file was already created). It loads the bundled `phaser.min.js` that is present in the same folder. ```html <!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta charset="UTF-8" /> <title>Procedural Top‑Down Alien Shooter</title> <style> body{margin:0;background:#000;font-family:sans-serif;color:#fff;} #game-container{width:100vw;height:100vh;display:flex;justify-content:center;align-items:center;background:#111;} canvas{border:2px solid #555;} </style> </head> <body> <div id="game-container"></div> <script src="phaser.min.js"></script> <script> /* Phaser configuration */ const config = { type: Phaser.AUTO, width: 800, height: 600, parent: 'game-container', physics: { default: 'arcade', arcade: { debug: false } }, scene: [MainScene] }; /* Main game scene */ function MainScene(){ Phaser.Scene.call(this, { key: 'MainScene' }); } MainScene.prototype = Object.create(Phaser.Scene.prototype); MainScene.prototype.constructor = MainScene; MainScene.prototype.preload = function(){ const g = this.make.graphics({x:0,y:0,add:false}); // Player – green circle g.fillStyle(0x00ff00,1); g.fillCircle(0,0,20); g.generateTexture('player',40,40); // Bullet – yellow rectangle g.clear(); g.fillStyle(0xffff00,1); g.fillRect(0,0,5,10); g.generateTexture('bullet',5,10); // Alien – red circle g.clear(); g.fillStyle(0xff0000,1); g.fillCircle(0,0,15); g.generateTexture('alien',30,30); g.destroy(); }; MainScene.prototype.create = function(){ this.player = this.physics.add.sprite(400,300,'player'); this.player.setCollideWorldBounds(true); this.player.health = 3; this.score = 0; this.wave = 1; this.bullets = this.physics.add.group(); this.aliens = this.physics.add.group(); this.cursors = this.input.keyboard.addKeys({ up:'W', down:'S', left:'A', right:'D' }); this.input.on('pointerdown', this.fireBullet, this); this.scoreText = this.add.text(10,10,'Score: 0', {font:'16px Arial',fill:'#fff'}); this.healthText = this.add.text(10,30,'Health: 3', {font:'16px Arial',fill:'#fff'}); this.waveText = this.add.text(10,50,'Wave: 1', {font:'16px Arial',fill:'#fff'}); this.physics.add.overlap(this.bullets, this.aliens, this.hitAlien, null, this); this.physics.add.overlap(this.player, this.aliens, this.hitPlayer, null, this); this.spawnWave(); }; MainScene.prototype.update = function(){ const speed = 200; this.player.setVelocity(0); if(this.cursors.left.isDown) this.player.setVelocityX(-speed); if(this.cursors.right.isDown) this.player.setVelocityX(speed); if(this.cursors.up.isDown) this.player.setVelocityY(-speed); if(this.cursors.down.isDown) this.player.setVelocityY(speed); // Remove off‑screen bullets this.bullets.children.each(b => { if(b.x<0||b.x>800||b.y<0||b.y>600) b.destroy(); }, this); // Remove off‑screen aliens this.aliens.children.each(a => { if(a.x<0||a.x>800||a.y<0||a.y>600) a.destroy(); }, this); // Next wave when all aliens gone if(this.aliens.countActive(false)===0){ this.wave++; this.waveText.setText('Wave: '+this.wave); this.spawnWave(); } }; MainScene.prototype.fireBullet = function(pointer){ const angle = Phaser.Math.Angle.Between(this.player.x, this.player.y, pointer.worldX, pointer.worldY); const bullet = this.bullets.create(this.player.x, this.player.y, 'bullet'); bullet.setRotation(angle+Math.PI/2); this.physics.velocityFromRotation(angle,400,bullet.body.velocity); bullet.body.setCollideWorldBounds(false); }; MainScene.prototype.hitAlien = function(bullet, alien){ bullet.destroy(); alien.destroy(); this.score += 10; this.scoreText.setText('Score: '+this.score); }; MainScene.prototype.hitPlayer = function(player, alien){ alien.destroy(); player.health -= 1; this.healthText.setText('Health: '+player.health); if(player.health <= 0){ this.physics.pause(); this.add.text(400,300,'GAME OVER', {font:'48px Arial',fill:'#ff0'}).setOrigin(0.5); } }; MainScene.prototype.spawnWave = function(){ const count = 5 + this.wave; // more aliens each wave const speedBase = 80 + this.wave*10; // faster each wave for(let i=0;i<count;i++){ const side = Phaser.Math.Between(0,3); // 0:left 1:right 2:top 3:bottom let x,y; if(side===0){x=0; y=Phaser.Math.Between(0,600);} else if(side===1){x=800; y=Phaser.Math.Between(0,600);} else if(side===2){x=Phaser.Math.Between(0,800); y=0;} else {x=Phaser.Math.Between(0,800); y=600;} const alien = this.aliens.create(x,y,'alien'); const angle = Phaser.Math.Angle.Between(x,y,this.player.x,this.player.y); this.physics.velocityFromRotation(angle,speedBase,alien.body.velocity); alien.setData('speed',speedBase); } }; window.onload = function(){ new Phaser.Game(config); }; </script> </body> </html> ``` Open `index.html` in a browser – the game starts immediately. Use **WASD** to move, click to shoot, survive increasingly larger waves of red alien circles. Enjoy!
