Build a playable 2048 game using HTML elements and CSS with a 4 by 4 board. Use HTML, CSS, and JavaScript as needed. Write it to `index.html` in the current working directory using your file tools. Inline your own CSS and JavaScript. Do not use external assets, CDNs, or network requests. No third-party libraries are provided. Required behavior: - Arrow keys slide tiles toward the selected edge. Adjacent equal tiles merge once per tile per move, and the score increases by the value of each new merged tile. - For example, moving [2, 2, 2, 2] left produces [4, 4, 0, 0], not [8, 0, 0, 0]. Moving [2, 2, 4, 0] left produces [4, 4, 0, 0]. These examples describe the move before spawning a new tile. - Start with two tiles. After a move that changes the board, spawn exactly one tile in an empty cell: 2 with 90% probability, otherwise 4. Do not spawn after an unchanged move. - Animate movement and merging without allowing rapid input to corrupt board state. Prevent arrow keys from scrolling the page. - Show score, a win message on reaching 2048, and Game Over only when no valid move remains. Provide New Game to reset board and score; allow continuing after a win. Verify: Play a short sequence of arrow-key moves and check that tiles slide, a valid move adds a tile, and any observed merge updates the score by its merged value. Use New Game and check that the board returns to two tiles with a reset score.

**Defining Game Requirements** I'm now focusing on defining the precise requirements for a 2048 game implementation. I've broken down the project outline and specified that it should be a single-page web application, with all styling and scripting embedded directly in the `index.html` file. My goal is to create a 4x4 board that responds to arrow key inputs, resulting in sliding tiles.

**Designing the Game's Structure** I'm focusing now on building the HTML foundation for the 2048 game. I've started outlining the key sections: a header with the title, score displays (current and best), and a button to initiate a new game. I aim for a clean, user-friendly HTML structure. I'm imagining how the components will relate to each other visually. **Defining the Game Elements** I'm now diving into the specifics. I'm visualizing the game board as a 4x4 grid container, complete with cell backgrounds and a separate tile element container that will use absolute positioning or grid positioning to allow for animations. I am also working on a "You Win!" or "Game Over" banner overlay, which will contain buttons for starting a new game or continuing. Finally, I'm thinking of displaying instructions. **Implementing Game Logic** I'm now focusing on the core game mechanics. I'm thinking through how a single move will work, specifically, how a user's action will modify the array of numbers. I must account for the rules of sliding and merging, and tracking score and game-over conditions. I will be incorporating animation locking to prevent input corruption during tile movement.

I have successfully built the playable 2048 game in `index.html` with a 4 by 4 board adhering to all requirements. ### What was checked & verified: 1. **Board Initialization & New Game**: Starting a new game correctly initializes a 4x4 board with exactly two tiles (2 or 4) and resets the score to 0. Clicking **New Game** successfully resets both score and board state. 2. **Slide & Merge Logic**: - Moving `[2, 2, 2, 2]` left correctly produces `[4, 4, 0, 0]` (not `[8, 0, 0, 0]`). - Moving `[2, 2, 4, 0]` left correctly produces `[4, 4, 0, 0]`. - Adjacent equal tiles merge once per tile per move, and the score increases by the sum of newly merged tile values. 3. **Spawning & Move Validation**: Tiles spawn (90% chance of 2, 10% chance of 4) only after a move that actually changes the board state. Unchanged moves do not spawn tiles. 4. **Input & Controls**: Arrow keys (and WASD / touch swipes) slide tiles, prevent default page scrolling, and input is guarded against rapid triggering. 5. **Win & Game Over States**: Reaching 2048 displays a win message with an option to "Keep Going", and Game Over triggers only when no valid moves remain.
