Build a first-person raycasting maze shooter on a canvas in the Wolfenstein 3D style: WASD movement and arrow or mouse turning through a textured grid maze with enemies you can shoot. Procedural textures only, no external assets.

The user wants a Wolfenstein 3D-style first-person raycasting maze shooter, all in one self-contained HTML file. Let me plan this out: 1. **Raycasting engine** - Cast rays from player position to render walls with distance-based shading 2. **Textured walls** - Procedurally generate wall textures (brick, stone patterns) 3. **WASD movement** + mouse/arrow key turning 4. **Maze generation** - Procedural grid maze 5. **Enemies** - Simple AI that moves toward player, can be shot 6. **Shooting mechanics** - Click or space to shoot 7. **HUD** - Health, ammo, minimap Let me build this comprehensively. I'll create a full raycaster with: - DDA raycasting algorithm - Procedural textures (brick wall, metal, etc.) using canvas pixel manipulation - Floor and ceiling casting - Sprite rendering for enemies - Enemy AI (chase player when close) - Shooting with hit detection - Sound effects via Web Audio API (oscillator-based, no external files) - Minimap overlay - Weapon sprite/bobbing This will be a substantial single file. Let me write it all out.

The file is written and complete. Let me verify it has no external resources or network requests by doing a quick check.
Done! Here's what I built — a complete Wolfenstein 3D-style raycasting maze shooter, all in one `index.html`: **Features:** - **Raycasting engine** with DDA algorithm for textured walls (brick, stone, metal, tech panel procedurally generated textures) - **WASD movement** with collision detection and sliding along walls - **Mouse turning** (via pointer lock) + arrow keys/QE for keyboard turning - **12 procedural enemies** with 3 visual types (red guards, blue elites, green brutes) that idle, patrol, chase when alerted, and attack on sight - **Hitscan shooting** with muzzle flash effect, head bob weapon animation, crosshair, and ammo system - **Reload mechanic** (R key or auto-reload when empty) - **Pickups** — health packs and ammo boxes scattered throughout the maze - **Procedural maze generation** using recursive backtracker with added openings - **Minimap** (top-right) showing walls, enemies, pickups, player position & FOV cone - **HUD** displaying health, ammo, score, and remaining enemies - **Sound effects** synthesized via Web Audio API (shoot, hit, enemy death, hurt, pickup, reload, empty) - **Damage flash**, lighting based on distance, side-shaded walls - **Win/lose conditions** — eliminate all hostiles to win, dying loses

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.
