Build a playable 2048 game with arrow-key tile sliding and merging, smooth animations, a score, and win and lose states.
thinking
The user wants a single-page, self-contained, playable 2048 game with arrow key sliding, smooth animations, score display, and win/lose state.
First, understand the requirements:
- Pure HTML with inline style and script, no external resources
- Core mechanics: 4×4 grid, tiles 2/4/8..., move with arrow keys, merge same numbers, generate new random 2 or 4 after each move, plus score, determine win/lose state
First, think clearly about the algorithm:
1. Initialize 4×4 array, fill 0 means empty
2. Randomly place 2 tiles in empty grid at start
3. Keyboard event: listen to arrow keys → call move(direction)
4. move(direction):
- Get current array
- Call slide(direction) according to direction: perform compression, merging, and rearrangement
- If array is "changed", insert a new tile (2 or 4) randomly, update score
- Call render() update DOM, animate tile movement and merging
- Check isWin() / isGameOver(), if over show overlay
slide logic:
- Left/Up: traverse each row/column, compress non-zero to left, merge if equal, mark merged tiles to avoid double merge
- Right/Down: reverse first, then call leftMerge, then reverse back
Animation:
- Give each tile a unique key (position index)
- CSS transition for position and scale
- Add .merged/.newly classes, animate scale at merge/birth with setTimeout to remove
Win/Lose:
- isWin: any tile equals 2048 → show win overlay
- isGameOver: no empty grid and no adjacent same → show lose overlay
DOM structure:
- .grid-container for background 16 cells
- .tile-container for current tiles
- Top: h1 title + score bar + New Game button
- Bottom: brief instructions
Styling:
- Choose dark theme, gradient background
- Different tile colors based on value
- Tile colors and font sizes use CSS variables or hardcoded values
Code structure:
1. CSS in <style>
2. HTML skeleton in <body>
3. JS in <script>, use immediately invoked function, bind keyboard events
Core functions draft:
function init() { grid=Array(16).fill(0); score=0; addTile(); addTile(); render(); }
function addTile() { emptyIndices=grid.map((v,i)=>v?null:i).filter(i=>i!=null); if(!emptyIndices.length)return; idx=random pick; grid[idx]=Math.random()<0.9?2:4; }
function move(dir){ oldGrid=[...grid]; grid=slide(grid,dir); if(changed){ addTile(); score=...; render(); if(isWin())showWin(); else if(isGameOver())showLose(); } }
function slide(arr,dir){ ... }
Now think about implementation details:
- Use ES6 for readability
- Use CSS Grid in DOM for background cells, use absolute positioning for tiles by left/top percentage values
- Use transform scale for animations, ease-in-out timing
- win/lose overlay with fixed positioning, opacity transition

The file has been created successfully. Let's verify that it is playable by opening it in a browser or at least checking that the file was written correctly. I should probably test that the game logic is correct. Let me read the file back to make sure it's there, and maybe run a simple syntax check.

Good, the file exists and is 12K which matches our expectations. The game logic is self-contained in a single HTML file with inline CSS and JavaScript. The game should be playable immediately upon opening in a browser. The implementation includes: 1. Game grid setup (4x4) 2. Arrow key controls (left, right, up, down) 3. Tile sliding and merging mechanics 4. Score tracking and display 5. Win condition (reaching 2048) 6. Lose condition (no more moves) 7. Smooth animations for tile movements and merging 8. New game button functionality 9. Dark theme styling The implementation is complete and ready to play.
**All set!** I created a single-file web app with a dark-theme 2048 game featuring: - Arrow-key controls for sliding tiles - Smooth animations for movement and merging - Score tracking with points earned on merges - Win state when you reach 2048 - Lose state when no moves remain - New game button and overlay for restarts Just open `index.html` in a browser to play. Everything runs offline with no external dependencies.
TAKE IT TO CODE
A single self-contained HTML file — copy it and open in any browser, or reuse the prompt with your own pi-agent run.
RUN
EVALUATION
2048 clone responds to arrow keys with tile movement and score increase, but WASD, click, drag, wheel do nothing.

MEASUREMENTS
Raw readings from the capture, not a verdict — the grade above is the only judgement. Percentages are how much of the screen changed; the measure under-reports sparse motion on a dark background.
