Build a playable first-person raycasting maze shooter on a canvas in a Wolfenstein-inspired style. 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: - Render a textured grid maze through a raycaster, with perspective wall heights and visible enemies. Generate textures procedurally; do not load external assets. - Use W/S to move forward/backward, A/D to strafe, Left/Right arrows to turn, and Space to shoot. Display the controls. Mouse turning is optional and must not be required. - Use solid wall collision and a small level with a reachable exit and at least three enemies. Enemies must be occluded by walls; shots cannot damage an enemy through a wall. - Give the player health. Enemies can damage the player under a clear attack rule. Show health and remaining enemy count; zero health causes Game Over. - Defeating all enemies unlocks the exit; reaching it shows a win state. Provide Restart to restore the level, player, enemies, and health. Verify: Test movement and turning near the starting area, check collision against a nearby wall, and fire to inspect weapon feedback. Sample the scene for stable wall rendering, then use Restart and check the initial viewpoint and health.

**Constructing The HTML**
I'm currently focused on the HTML structure. I've got the `<canvas>` and control `<div>` sorted. Now, I'm thinking about the best way to structure the game's data within the HTML.
**Defining HTML Layout**
I am now structuring the HTML elements needed for my single-file maze shooter. I have decided to incorporate a status `<div>` to render health, enemy count, exit status, and game over/win conditions. I also plan to include a `<script>` tag for JavaScript and a `<style>` tag for CSS.
**Outlining JavaScript Logic**
I'm now diving into the game's core JavaScript. The plan is to establish the game state, including player/enemy positions, level data, and exit conditions. I'll design the maze generation using a procedural approach and create the textures too. The raycasting engine is next, I'll calculate intersections, render textures with distance-based shading, and handle player movement and input. After that, I'm working on enemy behavior, shooting mechanics, and the end-game states. Then I'll focus on the UI to show the current game status.
**Defining Game Components**
I've outlined all the HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Now I will begin breaking it down to determine what I need to code. I'm focusing on defining the game's core components: the game state (player, enemies, level), maze generation, textures, raycasting engine, player input and movement, enemy AI, shooting, UI, and game over/win conditions. I've also verified my plan against the constraints.
**Defining Game Architecture**
I've completed planning the core components, and I'm confident about meeting the project's requirements. I'm focusing now on high-level implementation details, specifically how to represent the maze and the raycasting process. I'll use a 2D array for the maze layout and the DDA algorithm to find wall intersections for the raycasting engine.
**Defining HTML/CSS/JavaScript**
I'm now building out the `index.html` structure. It will contain the `<canvas>`, control `<div>`, and status `<div>`, with inline `<style>` and `<script>` tags for CSS and JavaScript, respectively. I've designed basic layout to center the content. I've also constructed the 2D maze representation, and the raycasting will utilize the DDA algorithm to find wall intersections and render textures.
**Refining JavaScript Implementation**
I'm now writing JavaScript for the game loop, with `requestAnimationFrame` for smooth updates. I am working on enemy interaction now. I'll focus on raycasting and collision detection. I am also planning to initialize game state and maze data. I am using a 2D array for the maze layout to represent walls, empty spaces, enemies, and the exit.
**Defining HTML Skeleton**
I've got the basic HTML structure set up. The `<canvas>`, control `<div>`, and status `<div>` are in place, along with the inline `<style>` and `<script>` tags. I've also incorporated basic styles to center everything. I've designed the status `<div>` to show health, enemy count, and exit status. I'm focusing on responsiveness now.

**Refining Maze & Raycasting**
I'm working on the 2D maze representation, now. I will make a 2D array and defining wall, enemy, and exit positions. I have also started implementing the DDA algorithm for raycasting to find wall intersections and render textures for the game's visuals. I am also working on creating simple procedural textures for the walls.
**Implementing Maze Data**
I've now implemented the maze as a 2D array and defined where walls, enemies, and the exit are. I'm focusing on raycasting and collision detection to ensure realistic game interactions. I also have started procedural textures.
**Implementing Procedural Textures**
I'm now implementing procedural textures. I've written a function to generate them using simple patterns, like stripes, within the game. I will apply these patterns to walls in the raycasting engine.
```javascript
tCtx.fillRect(i, 0, 1, textureSize);
}
return textureCanvas;
}
const wallTexture1 = generateTexture('#666', '#888'); // Grayish
const wallTexture2 = generateTexture('#444', '#777'); // Darker gray
const wallTexture3 = generateTexture('#336699', '#6699CC'); // Blueish
const wallTexture4 = generateTexture('#996633', '#CC9966'); // Brownish
// Game Functions
function initializeGame() {
// Find and initialize enemy positions from levelMap.
enemies = [];
totalEnemies = 0;
for (let y = 0; y < LEVEL_HEIGHT; y++) {
for (let x = 0; x < LEVEL_WIDTH; x++) {
if (levelMap[y][x] === 2) {
enemies.push({
x: x * TILE_SIZE + TILE_SIZE / 2, // Centered in tile
y: y * TILE_SIZE + TILE_SIZE / 2,
health: ENEMY_HEALTH,
isAlive: true,
attackCooldown: 0
});
totalEnemies++;
}
}
}
// Initialize player position to safe start.
player.x = 1.5 * TILE_SIZE;
player.y = 1.5 * TILE_SIZE;
player.angle = Math.PI / 2;
player.health = PLAYER_MAX_HEALTH;
player.projectiles = [];
exitReached = false;
gameOver = false;
gameWon = false;
hideOverlays();
updateStatusDisplay();
}
// Raycasting and Rendering
function castRay(playerX, playerY, rayAngle) {
// Implementation of DDA algorithm goes here.
// It should return the distance to the wall and the wall's texture type
let rayX = playerX;
let rayY = playerY;
let mapX = Math.floor(rayX / TILE_SIZE);
let mapY = Math.floor(rayY / TILE_SIZE);
let deltaDistX = Math.abs(TILE_SIZE / Math.cos(rayAngle));
let deltaDistY = Math.abs(TILE_SIZE / Math.sin(rayAngle));
let sideDistX, sideDistY;
let stepX, stepY;
let hit = 0; // Was there a wall hit? 0=no, 1=yes
let side = 0; // Which side of the wall was hit? 0=X, 1=Y
// Determine step direction and initial side distances
if (Math.cos(rayAngle) < 0) {
stepX = -1;
sideDistX = (rayX / TILE_SIZE - mapX) * deltaDistX;
} else {
stepX = 1;
sideDistX = (mapX + 1 - rayX / TILE_SIZE) * deltaDistX;
}
if (Math.sin(rayAngle) < 0) {
stepY = -1;
sideDistY = (rayY / TILE_SIZE - mapY) * deltaDistY;
} else {
stepY = 1;
sideDistY = (mapY + 1 - rayY / TILE_SIZE) * deltaDistY;
}
// DDA Algorithm
while (hit === 0) {
if (sideDistX < sideDistY) {
sideDistX += deltaDistX;
mapX += stepX;
side = 0; // X side hit
} else {
sideDistY += deltaDistY;
mapY += stepY;
side = 1; // Y side hit
}
// Check if we hit a wall
if (mapX < 0 || mapX >= LEVEL_WIDTH || mapY < 0 || mapY >= LEVEL_HEIGHT) {
return { distance: MAX_RENDER
**Refining Raycasting Implementation**
I'm starting raycasting logic now. I've got maze data initialized. My focus is on DDA. I'm building it to determine wall intersections, compute distances, and render textures based on those distances. The maze and player positions will be used for the collision detection.
**Refining Procedural Textures**
I've been working on refining the procedural textures. I will use color variations for walls to enhance visual appeal. I'm focusing on their application within the raycasting engine.
```javascript
function castRay(playerX, playerY, rayAngle) {
// Implementation of DDA algorithm goes here.
// It should return the distance to the wall and the wall's texture type
let rayX = playerX;
let rayY = playerY;
let mapX = Math.floor(rayX / TILE_SIZE);
let mapY = Math.floor(rayY / TILE_SIZE);
let deltaDistX = Math.abs(TILE_SIZE / Math.cos(rayAngle));
let deltaDistY = Math.abs(TILE_SIZE / Math.sin(rayAngle));
let sideDistX, sideDistY;
let stepX, stepY;
let hit = 0; // Was there a wall hit? 0=no, 1=yes
let side = 0; // Which side of the wall was hit? 0=X, 1=Y
// Determine step direction and initial side distances
if (Math.cos(rayAngle) < 0) {
stepX = -1;
sideDistX = (rayX / TILE_SIZE - mapX) * deltaDistX;
} else {
stepX = 1;
sideDistX = (mapX + 1 - rayX / TILE_SIZE) * deltaDistX;
}
if (Math.sin(rayAngle) < 0) {
stepY = -1;
sideDistY = (rayY / TILE_SIZE - mapY) * deltaDistY;
} else {
stepY = 1;
sideDistY = (mapY + 1 - rayY / TILE_SIZE) * deltaDistY;
}
// DDA Algorithm
while (hit === 0) {
if (sideDistX < sideDistY) {
sideDistX += deltaDistX;
mapX += stepX;
side = 0; // X side hit
} else {
sideDistY += deltaDistY;
mapY += stepY;
side = 1; // Y side hit
}
// Check if we hit a wall
if (mapX < 0 || mapX >= LEVEL_WIDTH || mapY < 0 || mapY >= LEVEL_HEIGHT) {
return { distance: MAX_RENDER_DIST, wallType: 0 }; // Return max distance if out of bounds
}
if (levelMap[mapY][mapX] > 0) {
hit = 1;
}
}
// Calculate the distance to the wall
let perpWallDist;
if (side === 0) {
perpWallDist = (mapX - rayX / TILE_SIZE + (1 - stepX) / 2) / Math.cos(rayAngle);
} else {
perpWallDist = (mapY - rayY / TILE_SIZE + (1 - stepY) / 2) / Math.sin(rayAngle);
}
// Determine wall type
let wallType = levelMap[mapY][mapX];
// Calculate wall intersection point
let wallX;
if (side === 0) {
wallX = rayY / TILE_SIZE + perpWallDist * Math.sin(rayAngle);
} else {
wallX = rayX / TILE_SIZE + perpWallDist * Math.cos(rayAngle);
}
wallX -= Math.floor(wallX);
return { distance: perpWallDist, wallType, wallX };
}
```
I've been working on procedural texture implementation with color variations for walls to enhance the game visuals. I'm focusing on applying these textures in the raycasting logic.
**Refining JavaScript Logic**
I am now focusing on refining the game loop and user interaction using `requestAnimationFrame`. I'm working on enemy behavior now. Collision is also on my list.
```javascript
const gameOverOverlay = document.getElementById('game-over');
const winScreenOverlay = document.getElementById('win-screen');
const restartGameOverButton = document.getElementById('restart-game-over');
const restartWinButton = document.getElementById('restart-win');
let lastFrameTime = 0; // For delta time calculations
// ... (rest of the code: level data, player, enemies, input, textures, etc.)
function showOverlay(overlayId) {
document.getElementById(overlayId).style.display = 'block';
}
function hideOverlays() {
gameOverOverlay.style.display = 'none';
winScreenOverlay.style.display = 'none';
}
// Collision Detection (Simple AABB)
function checkWallCollision(x, y) {
const gridX = Math.floor(x / TILE_SIZE);
const gridY = Math.floor(y / TILE_SIZE);
return levelMap[gridY][gridX] === 1;
}
function checkEnemyCollision(x, y, enemy) {
// Simple bounding box collision
const distSq = (x - enemy.x) * (x - enemy.x) + (y - enemy.y) * (y - enemy.y);
const collisionRadius = TILE_SIZE / 3; // Smaller than TILE_SIZE to be forgiving
return distSq < collisionRadius * collisionRadius;
}
function fireProjectile() {
const projectile = {
x: player.x,
y: player.y,
angle: player.angle,
speed: PROJECTILE_SPEED
};
player.projectiles.push(projectile);
}
// Function to handle enemy logic (movement and attack)
function updateEnemies(dt) {
enemies.forEach(enemy => {
if (enemy.health <= 0) {
return; // Skip dead enemies
}
// Simple AI: Move towards player if within visibility range.
const dx = player.x - enemy.x;
const dy = player.y - enemy.y;
const distance = Math.sqrt(dx * dx + dy * dy);
if (distance < ENEMY_VISIBILITY_RANGE) {
// Enemy movement: Approach player
const moveSpeed = 0.02 * dt;
const angle = Math.atan2(dy, dx);
enemy.x += Math.cos(angle) * moveSpeed;
enemy.y += Math.sin(angle) * moveSpeed;
// Basic Collision Detection
if (checkWallCollision(enemy.x, enemy.y)) {
// Simple back-off to prevent sticking in walls
enemy.x -= Math.cos(angle) * moveSpeed;
enemy.y -= Math.sin(angle) * moveSpeed;
}
// Enemy attack logic (if within range and cooldown is over)
if (distance < ENEMY_ATTACK_RANGE && enemy.lastAttackTime + ENEMY_ATTACK_COOLDOWN < Date.now()) {
player.health -= ENEMY_DAMAGE; // Reduce player health.
enemy.lastAttackTime = Date.now(); // Reset cooldown
if (player.health <= 0) {
gameOver = true;
}
// Update status immediately (in case enemy is already visible
updateStatus();
}
}
});
}
function updateProjectiles(dt) {
for (let i = player.projectiles.length - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
const projectile = player.projectiles[i];
projectile.x += Math.cos(projectile.angle) * projectile.speed * dt;
projectile.y += Math.sin(projectile.angle) * projectile.speed * dt;
// Check for wall collisions.
if (checkWallCollision(projectile.x, projectile.y)) {
player.projectiles.splice(i, 1); // Remove if hit a wall.
continue;
}
// Check for enemy collisions
for (let j = enemies.length - 1; j >= 0; j--) {
const enemy = enemies[j];
if (enemy.
**Refining JavaScript Logic**
I am now focusing on refining the game logic, implementing collision detection, handling player and enemy interactions. I'll focus on procedural textures too.
```javascript
function castRay(rayAngle) {
let hit = null;
let dist = 0;
let wallX, wallY;
let wallType = 0;
const pX = player.x;
const pY = player.y;
const pAngle = player.angle;
const rayDirX = Math.cos(rayAngle);
const rayDirY = Math.sin(rayAngle);
// DDA (Digital Differential Analyzer) Algorithm for raycasting
let mapX = Math.floor(pX / TILE_SIZE);
let mapY = Math.floor(pY / TILE_SIZE);
let sideDistX, sideDistY;
let deltaDistX, deltaDistY;
let stepX, stepY;
let hitSide; // 0: X- side, 1: Y-side
// Calculate deltaDist

stepY = -1;
sideDistY = (pY / TILE_SIZE - mapY) * deltaDistY;
} else {
stepY = 1;
sideDistY = (mapY + 1 - pY / TILE_SIZE) * deltaDistY;
}
let maxMapX = LEVEL_WIDTH;
let maxMapY = LEVEL_HEIGHT;
// Loop through map until a wall or exit is hit, or out of bounds
while (mapX < maxMapX && mapY < maxMapY && mapX >= 0 && mapY >= 0) {
// Jump to next map square, either in X or Y direction
if (sideDistX < sideDistY) {
sideDistX += deltaDistX;
mapX += stepX;
hitSide = 0;
} else {
sideDistY += deltaDistY;
mapY += stepY;
hitSide = 1;
}
// Check if we hit a wall or exit
if (mapX >= 0 && mapX < LEVEL_WIDTH && mapY >= 0 && mapY < LEVEL_HEIGHT) {
const tile = levelMap[mapY][mapX];
if (tile === 1 || tile === 3) { // Hit a wall or the exit wall
wallX = mapX;
wallY = mapY;
// Calculate perpendicular distance (Euclidean distance is longer)
if (hitSide === 0) {
dist = (mapX - pX / TILE_SIZE + (1 - stepX) / 2) * deltaDistX;
} else {
dist = (mapY - pY / TILE_SIZE + (1 - stepY) / 2) * deltaDistY;
}
wallType = tile; // Store wall type (1 or 3)
hit = { dist, wallX, wallY, wallType, hitSide };
break;
}
}
}
return hit;
}
```
I'm working on the raycasting engine and using DDA algorithm for efficient wall detection. I will ensure the calculations of distances are accurate.
**Refining JavaScript Logic**
I am now focusing on refining the game logic, implementing collision detection, and handling enemy and player interactions. I will also make procedural texture application refinements.

I've been working to get the DDA algorithm stable and efficient by improving the collision logic. I will also incorporate procedural textures for the raycast walls.
**Refining JavaScript Game Loop**

**Building Game Visuals**
I'm now integrating rendering for walls, floor, and ceiling, and integrating textures. I will then work on enemies.
I've integrated all rendering logic. I have textures, a ceiling, and a floor. I am now working on enemy and projectile rendering.
```javascript
if (wallX !== undefined) {
// Calculate distance to wall
if (hitSide === 0) dist = (wallX - pX / TILE_SIZE + (1 - stepX) / 2) * deltaDistX * TILE_SIZE;
else dist = (wallY - pY / TILE_SIZE + (1 - stepY) / 2) * deltaDistY * TILE_SIZE;
// Ensure distance is not too large and not negative
dist = Math.max(0.01, dist); // Prevent division by zero, min distance
if (dist > MAX_RENDER_DIST) dist = MAX_RENDER_DIST;
// Calculate wall height for this ray
// The height of the wall slice on screen depends on player's distance to the wall
const wallHeightOnScreen = Math.floor(SCREEN_HEIGHT / dist * TILE_SIZE);
// Calculate texture coordinates
let texX;
if (hitSide === 0) { // Hit a vertical wall
texX = pY + dist * rayDirY; // Y coordinate on the wall
} else { // Hit a horizontal wall
texX = pX + dist * rayDirX; // X coordinate on the wall
}
texX = texX % TILE_SIZE; // Ensure texture coordinate is within tile
if (texX < 0) texX += TILE_SIZE; // Handle negative texture coordinates
return { dist, wallHeightOnScreen, texX, wallY, wallX, hitSide, wallType };
}
return null; // Nothing hit
}
```
I've got enemies rendered and added basic game interactions with the floor, ceiling, and wall. I am now refining textures.
```javascript
const enemyScreenY = (SCREEN_HEIGHT / 2) - (enemyScreenHeight / 2);
// Check for occlusion by walls
const rayResult = castRay(Math.atan2(dy, dx));
if (rayResult && rayResult.dist < distToEnemy) {
// Enemy is occluded by a wall
continue;
}
// Draw the enemy
ctx.fillStyle = 'red'; // Simple red enemy representation
ctx.fillRect(enemyScreenX - enemyScreenWidth / 2, enemyScreenY, enemyScreenWidth, enemyScreenHeight);
// Draw enemy health bar (optional, for debugging/gameplay)
ctx.fillStyle = 'green';
ctx.fillRect(enemyScreenX - enemyScreenWidth / 2 , enemyScreenY - 10, enemyScreenWidth * (enemy.health / ENEMY_HEALTH), 5);
}
```
I am refining the visual representation for projectiles and adding in game mechanics. I now have basic interactions between player and enemies, shooting implemented.
```javascript
for (const proj of player.projectiles) {
// Projectile rendering is simple: a small dot at its world position, projected onto screen
const dx = proj.x - player.x;
const dy = proj.y - player.y;
const distToProj = Math.sqrt(dx*dx + dy*dy);
const angleToProj = Math.atan2(dy, dx);
let normalizedPlayerAngle = player.angle ;
while (normalizedPlayerAngle < -Math.PI) normalizedPlayerAngle += 2 * Math.PI;
while (normalizedPlayerAngle > Math.PI) normalizedPlayerAngle -= 2 * Math.PI;
let angleDiff = angleToProj - normalizedPlayerAngle;
while (angleDiff < -Math.PI) angleDiff += 2 * Math.PI;
while (angleDiff > Math.PI) angleDiff -= 2 * Math.PI;
if (Math.abs(angleDiff) > FOV / 2) {
continue; // Projectile out of view
}
// Projectile screen position (similar to enemy calculations)
const screenXOffset = angleDiff * (SCREEN_WIDTH / FOV);
const projectileScreenX = (SCREEN_WIDTH / 2) + screenXOffset;
// Projectile screen height and size (can be based on distance)
const projectileSize = 4;
