Don't Die - Battle Royale (canvas remake)

[Deegan4]

Rebuilds the repo around a single-file, portrait, mobile-first cartoon twin-stick survival royale modeled on the reference game Don't Die - Battle Royale. The previous game (BRAWL ARENA.html) and its tooling are removed; everything now lives in index.html. All art is canvas-drawn — no external sprites are used.

What's in it

• Avatar select — 9 characters with Speed/Health stats and level-gated unlocks (padlocks on locked ones), each with a drawn chibi portrait
• Weapon select — Pistol / Rifle / Shotgun / Sniper, each with damage, magazine, reload, range and a special (pistol 50% crit, rifle full-auto, shotgun pellet spread, sniper pierce + huge range)
• Gameplay — grass-field arena with trees/bushes/grass decor, a shrinking "safe area", a 15-player field of bot humans, and roaming melee zombies
• Controls — twin-stick touch (move stick + aim/fire stick) with WASD + mouse fallback, plus lightning (chain-zap) and bomb (AoE) power-ups on cooldown buttons
• HUD matching the reference — XP/level bar, minimap, players / kills / Safe area / FPS readout, and name + health bar + orange ammo pips over each fighter
• Meta — settings (change avatar/weapon/name, music toggle), XP/level progression that unlocks avatars, and a results screen with placement; persisted via localStorage
• Audio — lazy WebAudio synth sfx + optional music loop

Validation

• Script block parse-checks clean (vm.Script, no execution).
• Rendered headless at portrait resolution (~430×932) through all screens — start, avatar select, weapon select, gameplay, results — with no console errors; FPS steady at ~60.
• Balance smoke: a competent (kiting + hold-fire) player survives the opening and into the mid-game; the shrinking safe area and zombies apply pressure over time.

Notes / constraints

• I couldn't reach stickygames.com from this environment (network allowlist), so the look is reconstructed from screenshots — close in spirit, not pixel-identical, and uses original copyrighted assets nowhere.
• Draft pending a real play session on a phone to tune feel (movement speed, zombie pressure, weapon balance).
