⚡ KINETIC SHIFT

OVERVIEW

Kinetic Shift is a single-file, physics-driven vector manipulation simulation game built on pure HTML5 Canvas and Web Audio API without external dependencies. Players route dynamic particles into target portals using customizable force fields, bounce barriers, and interactive level geometry.

KEY FEATURES & SYSTEMS

• 256 Procedurally Generated Campaign Levels: Algorithmic level generator utilizing deterministic pseudo-random seeds for infinite replayability.
• Integrated Level Creator: Full in-game editing tools allowing custom placement of launch pads, targets, static barriers, and moving hazards.
• Level Playtest Verification System: Built-in anti-cheat validation requiring level creators to complete their custom levels before exporting or saving.
• JSON Level Code Import / Export: Base64 encoded level string generation for cross-device sharing.
• Progress & Creation Persistence: Built-in localStorage integration to maintain player progress and custom creations.
• Web Audio Synthesizer: Dynamic real-time sound engine running procedural background synth loops and interaction sound effects.

ARCHITECTURE & TECH STACK

• Engine: HTML5 2D Canvas Context API with custom Euler integration physics engine.
• Audio Engine: Native Web Audio Context API with real-time dynamic gain routing and oscillator synthesis.
• Storage: Structured JSON serialization stored in local key-value storage.
• Dependencies: Zero external frameworks or libraries (Pure Vanilla JS / CSS3 / HTML5).
