Compiled clean. Let me reload and screenshot both dungeon and battle:

browser

() => { localStorage.setItem('storyquest-auth', JSON.stringify({state:{token: JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('storyquest-auth')||'{}').state?.token, isAuthenticated:true},version:0})); location.reload(); return 'reload'; }


(no output)


async () => { if (location.pathname !== '/game') { const r = await fetch('/api/auth/login/pin',{method:'POST',headers:{'Content-Type':'application/json'},body:JSON.stringify({pin:'1234'})}); const d = await r.json(); localStorage.setItem('storyquest-auth', JSON.stringify({state:{token:d.access_token,user:d.user,isAuthenticated:true},version:0})); location.href='/game'; return 'redirecting'; } return 'already on game: ' + !!window.__storyquest; }


Progress — I can see a chest sprite in the top-left (the box icon with a lid), and a skull 💀 icon in the boss room with red glow. Rooms are starting to have different colors. But there's a JS error and the right half of the canvas is black. Let me check the error:

() => { const errs = window.__errors || []; return JSON.stringify({ url: location.href, bridge: !!window.__storyquest, errors: errs.slice(0,5) }); }


() => { const state = window.__storyquest.getState(); const game = window.__phaserGame; return JSON.stringify({ scene: state.scene, scaleW: game.scale.width, scaleH: game.scale.height, canvasW: document.querySelector('canvas')?.width }); }


The game is running at 1917px wide but only showing content on the left ~380px — the dungeon map is tiny in the corner. That's the zoom issue. The camera background I set is `#2a1a0a` (dark brown) but most of the right half is `#0a0820` (the default Phaser background). The actual dungeon content is zoomed in but the map data is only covering a small area.

Let me check the floor dimensions and see what the camera is actually looking at:

() => { const sq = window.__storyquest; const state = sq.getState(); const game = window.__phaserGame; const dungeon = game.scene.getScene('DungeonScene'); return JSON.stringify({ floor: dungeon?.floorData ? {w: dungeon.floorData.width, h: dungeon.floorData.height} : null, zoom: dungeon?.cameras?.main?.zoom, playerX: state.player.x, playerY: state.player.y }); }


Two issues: **zoom is 1** (should be 3), and **player is at 0,0** — floor loaded but player spawning failed, so the camera has nothing to follow. Floor is 50×40 tiles = 800×640px at 16px/tile, at zoom 3 that's 2400×1920 world space. But zoom=1 means the whole 50×40 dungeon fits in a tiny section of the 1917px wide canvas.

The zoom fix isn't applying because `setupCamera` runs early but `CAMERA_ZOOM=3` is supposed to be set. Let me check:

exec

grep -n "setZoom\|CAMERA_ZOOM\|zoom" /home/crogers2287/projects/storyquest/frontend/src/game/scenes/DungeonScene.ts | head -10


4:  CAMERA_ZOOM,
246:    // Camera setup - adaptive zoom based on device (phone gets 2x, tablet gets 3x)
247:    const zoom = this.scale.width < 500 ? 2 : CAMERA_ZOOM;
248:    this.cameras.main.setZoom(zoom);

Controls aren't working for me and it's loading halfway all on halfway off the screen


The user is saying controls aren't working and the game is rendering halfway off the screen. This is a serious layout/scaling issue. Let me check:

1. The canvas is 1917px wide - this is way too wide
2. The game isn't filling the viewport correctly
3. Controls not working - likely because the touch/click coordinates are off due to the scaling issue

The core issue is the Phaser game config - it's probably set to RESIZE mode which makes it take the full container width, but the container itself might not be sized correctly.

Let me check the game config and the container sizing, then fix both issues at once.

The canvas is 1917px wide - that suggests the game container is taking the full browser window width including the white space we see on the right. But visually the dungeon only renders in the left portion. This might be because:

The game is configured with RESIZE mode but the parent container is wider than the actual visible area, or the scale mode is misconfigured. I need to look at the game config to see what's actually set there.

Two core problems — canvas width 1917px (too wide, game renders in a fraction of it) and controls miss because touch coordinates are wrong at that scale. Let me fix the game config and container sizing right now:

Found it. `Phaser.Scale.RESIZE` is making the canvas stretch to fill the entire container — and the container is the full browser window (1917px). The game was designed at 800×600. I need to switch to `FIT` mode so it scales proportionally and stays centered:

python3 << 'PYEOF'
path = '/home/crogers2287/projects/storyquest/frontend/src/game/index.ts'
with open(path) as f:
    content = f.read()

old = """    scale: {

    },"""

new = """    scale: {
      mode: Phaser.Scale.FIT,          // Scale to fit, keep aspect ratio

      width: 480,                       // Mobile-first: portrait 480x854

Done


Now make the game container fill the screen properly and center the canvas:

with open(path) as f:
    content = f.read()

# Also fix the container div to not be w-full h-full (that causes the stretch)

It's centering now (portrait canvas in the middle of the desktop) but the game is still showing just the top portion — the bottom half is grey/empty. The player is tiny in the upper right. There's a JS error. Let me check it and also fix the zoom — at 480×854 the zoom of 3 means the camera only shows 160×285 pixels of the world, which is about 10×18 tiles. That's actually correct for a mobile portrait game. The issue is the camera isn't following the player properly. Let me check:

() => { const d = window.__phaserGame?.scene?.getScene('DungeonScene'); const state = window.__storyquest?.getState(); return JSON.stringify({ bridge: !!window.__storyquest, scene: state?.scene, playerX: state?.player?.x, playerY: state?.player?.y, zoom: d?.cameras?.main?.zoom, scaleW: window.__phaserGame?.scale?.width, scaleH: window.__phaserGame?.scale?.height, error: window.__lastError }); }


Player is at 0,0 and zoom is 1. The player isn't spawning (position 0,0 = top-left corner, means `spawnPlayer()` isn't working) and zoom stays 1 instead of 3. Let me check why:

exec

grep -n "spawnPlayer\|player_start\|TILE_SIZE\|setPosition\|setZoom" /home/crogers2287/projects/storyquest/frontend/src/game/scenes/DungeonScene.ts | head -20

723:    const startY = this.floorData.player_start.y * TILE_SIZE + TILE_SIZE / 2;


sed -n '220,240p' /home/crogers2287/projects/storyquest/frontend/src/game/scenes/DungeonScene.ts


private spawnPlayer() {
    const startX = this.floorData.player_start.x * TILE_SIZE + TILE_SIZE / 2;
    const startY = this.floorData.player_start.y * TILE_SIZE + TILE_SIZE / 2;

    // Use the real hero spritesheet (frame 0 = first idle frame)
    this.player = this.physics.add.sprite(startX, startY, 'hero', 0);
    this.player.setCollideWorldBounds(true);
    this.player.setDepth(10);

    // Play idle animation
    this.player.play('hero-idle');

    // Set player size for collision
    this.player.body?.setSize(12, 12);
    this.player.body?.setOffset(2, 4);

    // Collide with walls
    this.physics.add.collider(this.player, this.buildResult.wallLayer);
  }

  private setupCamera() {


The player spawns but `this.player.x` shows 0,0 via the bridge because the bridge reads it before the physics system updates. Zoom is 1 because `setupCamera` reads `this.scale.width` which returns 480 (correct) but zoom should be 3... wait, `480 < 500` so it's setting zoom to 2. Let me check what actually happens:

sed -n '242,252p' /home/crogers2287/projects/storyquest/frontend/src/game/scenes/DungeonScene.ts


// Set world bounds
    this.physics.world.setBounds(0, 0, width * TILE_SIZE, height * TILE_SIZE);

    // Camera setup - adaptive zoom based on device (phone gets 2x, tablet gets 3x)
    const zoom = this.scale.width < 500 ? 2 : CAMERA_ZOOM;
    this.cameras.main.setZoom(zoom);
    this.cameras.main.startFollow(this.player, true, 0.1, 0.1);
    this.cameras.main.setBounds(0, 0, width * TILE_SIZE, height * TILE_SIZE);

    // Pixel art rendering

All of the above. Let's get this kid ready.


The user is repeating their earlier message "All of the above. Let's get this kid ready." This was their response when I listed what was left to polish. They want me to continue with the comprehensive polish work.

But right now we have a broken game - the zoom is 1 instead of 2-3, the player appears to be at 0,0, and the game isn't rendering properly. I need to fix these fundamental issues first before doing more polish.

Let me focus on:
1. Fix the zoom - it should be 2 or 3, not 1
2. Fix the player spawn position
3. Make sure the camera follows the player
4. Get the game rendering correctly

The issue is that `this.scale.width` returns 480, which is < 500, so zoom should be 2. But the bridge reports zoom as 1. This means `setupCamera()` isn't being called, or it's being called but the zoom isn't sticking.

Wait - looking at the code flow:
1. `create()` is async and calls `await this.loadFloor()`
2. Then `this.buildResult = builder.build(this.floorData)`
3. Then `this.addDungeonAtmosphere()` (which I added)
4. Then `this.spawnPlayer()`
5. Then `this.setupCamera()`

But the bridge is reporting zoom=1, which means either:
- `setupCamera()` isn't running
- The camera zoom is being reset somewhere
- The scale.width is somehow different

Let me check if there's an issue with the async flow or if the atmosphere method I added is breaking things. Actually, I added `this.addDungeonAtmosphere()` but I need to make sure it exists and doesn't error out.

Let me just fix the immediate issues:
1. Force zoom to 3 for now (debug)

The game is broken - zoom at 1, player at 0,0. Let me fix the core issues right now:

python3 << 'PYEOF'
path = '/home/crogers2287/projects/storyquest/frontend/src/game/scenes/DungeonScene.ts'

    content = f.read()

    console.log('[DungeonScene] Spawning player at', startX, startY);

Now let me also check that the addDungeonAtmosphere method I added earlier doesn't have any issues - it references `this.floorData.rooms` and creates tweens. Let me verify it's correct.

grep -n "addDungeonAtmosphere\|this\.floorData\.rooms" /home/crogers2287/projects/storyquest/frontend/src/game/scenes/DungeonScene.ts | head -10


73:    this.addDungeonAtmosphere();
454:    for (const room of this.floorData.rooms) {
468:    const room = this.floorData.rooms.find((r) => r.id === this.currentRoomId);
473:    const room = this.floorData.rooms.find((r) => r.id === this.currentRoomId);
485:    const currentRoom = this.floorData.rooms.find((r) => r.id === this.currentRoomId);
552:    const room = this.floorData.rooms.find((r) => r.id === this.currentRoomId);
673:    for (const room of this.floorData.rooms) {


Good, `addDungeonAtmosphere` is called. Let me check if the method is defined correctly.

grep -n "private addDungeonAtmosphere" /home/crogers2287/projects/storyquest/frontend/src/game/scenes/DungeonScene.ts


(Command exited with code 1)


The method doesn't exist! I added a call to `this.addDungeonAtmosphere()` but never defined the method. That's causing a runtime error. Let me check what I actually added and fix it.

sed -n '673,720p' /home/crogers2287/projects/storyquest/frontend/src/game/scenes/DungeonScene.ts


for (const room of this.floorData.rooms) {
      if (
        tileX >= room.x &&
        tileX < room.x + room.w &&
        tileY >= room.y &&
        tileY < room.y + room.h
      ) {
        lootTier = room.loot_tier || 1;
        break;
      }
    }

    // Award gold based on loot tier
    const goldAmount = lootTier * 10 + Math.floor(Math.random() * 20);
    if (this.heroData) {
      this.heroData.gold += goldAmount;
      this.registry.set('heroData', this.heroData);
    }

    // Emit event for UI update
    this.game.events.emit('gold-gained', goldAmount);
    this.game.events.emit('show-notification', `Found ${goldAmount} gold!`);

    this.nearbyInteractable = null;
  }

  private readLoreStone() {
    // Emit event for React to show lore modal
    this.game.events.emit('show-lore', {
      title: 'Ancient Wisdom',
      text: 'The path to mastery lies through the written word. Those who read shall gain power beyond measure.',
    });
  }

  private goToNextFloor() {
    this.currentFloorNumber++;

    if (this.heroData) {
      this.heroData.floorNumber = this.currentFloorNumber;
      this.registry.set('heroData', this.heroData);
    }

    // Stop UIScene
    this.scene.stop('UIScene');

    // Restart this scene with new floor
    this.scene.restart({ floorNumber: this.currentFloorNumber });
  }


I need to find where I added the call to `addDungeonAtmosphere` and either add the method or remove the call.

sed -n '70,80p' /home/crogers2287/projects/storyquest/frontend/src/game/scenes/DungeonScene.ts


this.buildResult.objectLayer.setTint(0xffffff);  // objects full color

    // Add dungeon atmosphere
    this.addDungeonAtmosphere();

    // Spawn player at start position
    this.spawnPlayer();

    // Setup camera
    this.setupCamera();


I'm calling `this.addDungeonAtmosphere()` but the method doesn't exist. I need to either add it or remove the call. Let me check if I added a partial method somewhere.

grep -n "private add" /home/crogers2287/projects/storyquest/frontend/src/game/scenes/DungeonScene.ts


I see the issue now. When I added the code earlier to DungeonScene.ts, I tried to add `addDungeonAtmosphere` and `updateVignette` methods, but the replacement pattern for `addDungeonAtmosphere` didn't match because of the context. Let me search for any partial additions.


73:    this.addDungeonAtmosphere();
303:    this.updateVignette();


So I'm calling both `addDungeonAtmosphere()` and `updateVignette()` but neither method exists. That's causing runtime errors. Let me remove both calls since the atmosphere method was supposed to add torch glows etc but the FloorBuilder is already doing that now.

python3 << 'PYEOF'
path = '/home/crogers2287/projects/storyquest/frontend/src/game/scenes/DungeonScene.ts'
with open(path) as f:
    content = f.read()

# Remove the broken method calls
content = content.replace("    // Add dungeon atmosphere\n    this.addDungeonAtmosphere();\n\n", "")
content = content.replace("    this.updateVignette();\n", "")

with open(path, 'w') as f:
    f.write(content)
print("Done - removed broken method calls")
PYEOF


Done - removed broken method calls


Now the game should at least not crash. Let me check if there are any other issues and then test again.


HEAD / 200 in 24ms
 GET / 200 in 26ms
 ✓ Compiled in 1284ms (1648 modules)


Good, compiled. Now let me reload the game and check the state.

browser

() => { location.reload(); return 'reload'; }


(no output)


() => { const state = window.__storyquest?.getState(); const d = window.__phaserGame?.scene?.getScene('DungeonScene'); return JSON.stringify({ url: location.href, scene: state?.scene, zoom: d?.cameras?.main?.zoom, playerX: state?.player?.x, playerY: state?.player?.y, scaleW: window.__phaserGame?.scale?.width, scaleH: window.__phaserGame?.scale?.height }); }


Progress!
- zoom is now 3 ✓
- playerX/Y is 136,88 ✓ (not 0,0 - player is spawned)
- scale is 480x854 ✓

Let me screenshot to see how it looks now.


Great progress! I can see:
- The dungeon is rendering properly in portrait mode
- The player character is visible (bottom center)
- Stone tile floors
- A skull emoji 💀 in a room with red glow (boss room marker)
- A book emoji 📖 in a room with purple glow (lore room)
- Gold-colored floor tiles in treasure room (top left area)
- The game is centered in the browser window

The controls still aren't working though - the user said the controls aren't responding. Let me check if the keyboard/joystick is working and fix any remaining control issues.

**Huge progress.** The dungeon is now rendering properly:
- Portrait canvas (480×854) centered in browser
- Player spawned correctly (136, 88)
- Zoom at 3x
- Room colors visible (gold treasure room, skull for boss, book for lore)
- Torch glows

Now let me test the controls. The user said controls aren't working. Let me verify via the bridge:

() => { const d = window.__phaserGame?.scene?.getScene('DungeonScene'); const ui = window.__phaserGame?.scene?.getScene('UIScene'); return JSON.stringify({ hasPlayer: !!d?.player, hasInput: !!d?.input?.keyboard, cursors: d?.cursors ? 'exists' : 'null', joystickVec: d?.registry?.get('joystickVector'), dpadEnabled: d?.registry?.get('dpadEnabled'), uiSceneRunning: ui?.scene?.isActive() }); }


The UIScene isn't running! That's why controls aren't working - the joystick is in UIScene. Let me check why UIScene isn't active. It should be launched by DungeonScene.

UIScene isn't running — that's why controls don't work. Let me check why it's not launching:

exec

grep -n "launch.*UIScene\|scene.launch" /home/crogers2287/projects/storyquest/frontend/src/game/scenes/DungeonScene.ts | head -10


84:    this.scene.launch('UIScene', {
485:    this.scene.launch('BattleScene', {
559:      this.scene.launch('ShopScene', {


UIScene should be launched. Let me check if there's an error in UIScene that's preventing it from starting.

grep -n "setupRewardFloaters\|encounter-warning\|level-up" /home/crogers2287/projects/storyquest/frontend/src/game/scenes/UIScene.ts | head -10


77:    this.setupRewardFloaters();
417:    this.game.events.on('level-up', (newLevel: number) => {


The UIScene has `setupRewardFloaters()` method call. Let me check if that method exists and is correct.

grep -n "private setupRewardFloaters" /home/crogers2287/projects/storyquest/frontend/src/game/scenes/UIScene.ts


(Command exited with code 1)


Another missing method! I added a call to `setupRewardFloaters()` but never defined the method. This is breaking the UIScene. Let me check what I tried to add earlier and fix it.

Same issue — calling a method that doesn't exist. Let me fix UIScene:

python3 << 'PYEOF'
path = '/home/crogers2287/projects/storyquest/frontend/src/game/scenes/UIScene.ts'
with open(path) as f:
    content = f.read()

# Remove the broken method call
content = content.replace("    this.setupRewardFloaters();\n", "")

with open(path, 'w') as f:
    f.write(content)
print("Done - removed broken setupRewardFloaters call")
PYEOF


Done - removed broken setupRewardFloaters call


Now I need to add the floating reward text functionality properly - either inline or as a proper method. Let me add it inline in the create() method after setupEventListeners.

grep -n "setupEventListeners\|private setupJoystick" /home/crogers2287/projects/storyquest/frontend/src/game/scenes/UIScene.ts | head -5


76:    this.setupEventListeners();
390:  private setupEventListeners() {


Let me check what setupEventListeners does and add the floating reward handlers there.

sed -n '390,450p' /home/crogers2287/projects/storyquest/frontend/src/game/scenes/UIScene.ts


private setupEventListeners() {
    // HP changed
    this.game.events.on('hp-changed', (current: number, max: number) => {
      this.updateHPBar(current, max);
    });

    // XP gained
    this.game.events.on('xp-gained', (amount: number) => {
      this.data.playerXp += amount;
      this.updateXPBar();
    });

    // Gold changed
    this.game.events.on('gold-changed', (total: number) => {
      this.data.gold = total;
      this.updateGold();
    });

    // Gold gained (additive)
    this.game.events.on('gold-gained', (amount: number) => {
      this.data.gold += amount;
      this.updateGold();
      this.showGoldPopup(amount);
    });

    // Level up
    this.game.events.on('level-up', (newLevel: number) => {
      this.data.playerLevel = newLevel;
      this.showLevelUpEffect();
    });

    // Show notification

    this.game.events.on('battle-start', () => {
      this.joystickDisabled = true;
      if (this.joystickBase) this.joystickBase.setVisible(false);
      if (this.joystickKnob) this.joystickKnob.setVisible(false);
      if (this.joystickVector) this.joystickVector.set(0, 0);
      this.registry.set('joystickVector', this.joystickVector);
    });

    this.game.events.on('battle-end', () => {
      this.joystickDisabled = false;
      const dpadEnabled = this.registry.get('dpadEnabled') !== false;
      if (this.joystickBase) this.joystickBase.setVisible(dpadEnabled);

      this.joystickDisabled = true;
      if (this.joystickBase) this.joystickBase.setVisible(false);
      if (this.joystickKnob) this.joystickKnob.setVisible(false);
      if (this.joystickVector) this.joystickVector.set(0, 0);
      this.registry.set('joystickVector', this.joystickVector);


Good, the setupEventListeners method exists. I can see it already has `showGoldPopup` and `showLevelUpEffect` method calls. Let me check if those methods exist.

grep -n "showGoldPopup\|showLevelUpEffect" /home/crogers2287/projects/storyquest/frontend/src/game/scenes/UIScene.ts


412:      this.showGoldPopup(amount);
418:      this.showLevelUpEffect();
501:  private showGoldPopup(amount: number) {
520:  private showLevelUpEffect() {


Good, the popup methods exist. The issue might be elsewhere. Let me compile and test again to see if removing the broken setupRewardFloaters call fixes UIScene.

docker logs storyquest-frontend --tail-3 2>/dev/null


(Command exited with code 125)


Let me just check the compilation status properly.

docker logs storyquest-frontend 2>&1 | tail -5


HEAD / 200 in 28ms
 GET / 200 in 21ms
 GET / 200 in 29ms
 HEAD / 200 in 38ms
 GET / 200 in 33ms


No compilation output visible. Let me check if it's still compiling or if there's an error.

sleep 3 && docker logs storyquest-frontend 2>&1 | grep -E "Compiled|error|Error" | tail -5


⨯ ReferenceError: navigator is not defined
 ✓ Compiled in 1201ms (1648 modules)
 ✓ Compiled in 1284ms (1648 modules)
 ⨯ ReferenceError: navigator is not defined
 ✓ Compiled in 1582ms (1648 modules)


There's a "navigator is not defined" error - this is the SSR issue with Phaser. The game page is trying to render on the server side. But the compilation itself succeeds. Let me reload the game and check if UIScene now runs.


(no output)


browser

() => { const ui = window.__phaserGame?.scene?.getScene('UIScene'); const d = window.__phaserGame?.scene?.getScene('DungeonScene'); return JSON.stringify({ uiRunning: ui?.scene?.isActive(), uiVisible: ui?.scene?.isVisible(), dungeonRunning: d?.scene?.isActive(), hasJoystick: !!ui?.joystickBase }); }


Progress! UIScene is now running (`uiRunning: true, uiVisible: true`). But `hasJoystick: false` - the joystick wasn't created. This might be because dpadEnabled is false in localStorage (we set it earlier).

Let me check the dpadEnabled state and screenshot to see the current visual state.

UIScene is running now. Let me screenshot and check controls:


Looking at the screenshot:
- Dungeon rendering properly with colored rooms
- HP bar at top left (green)
- XP bar below HP (yellow)
- Level badge
- Gold counter
- No joystick visible (because dpadEnabled=false)
- No dungeon atmosphere (the warm background I tried to add isn't there)
- The game looks better but still needs more color

The user said controls aren't working. With dpadEnabled=false, the joystick is hidden. The user should be able to:
1. Use keyboard (WASD/arrows) on desktop
2. Tap-to-move on mobile

Let me enable the dpad and test that keyboard controls work:

() => { window.__storyquest.setDpad(true); return JSON.stringify({ dpadEnabled: window.__storyquest.getState().ui.dpadEnabled }); }


Dpad is enabled. Now let me test if keyboard controls work by moving the player via the bridge.

() => { const state = window.__storyquest.getState(); window.__storyquest.movePlayer(1, 0, 500); return JSON.stringify({ beforeX: state.player.x, beforeY: state.player.y }); }


I told the player to move right. Let me wait a moment and check the new position.


() => { const state = window.__storyquest.getState(); return JSON.stringify({ afterX: state.player.x, afterY: state.player.y }); }

Treasure chest doesn't work and you need to do something better for the character frame


The user is saying:
1. Treasure chest doesn't work - clicking on it does nothing
2. The character frame (player sprite) needs improvement

Let me fix both of these issues. First, let me check how the chest interaction works and why it's not triggering. Then I'll improve the character sprite/visual.

Let me fix the chest interaction and improve the character sprite.

Also, the text when you walk over things is not really legible


The user has several issues:
1. Treasure chest doesn't work - likely the interaction with chests isn't triggering
2. Character frame needs improvement - the player sprite is using the basic hero spritesheet which may not look great
3. Text when walking over things is not legible - probably the interact prompt text that shows "Press E" when near items

Let me fix all of these:

1. Chest interaction - need to check how chests are detected and what happens when you interact with them
2. Character sprite - make it bigger, clearer, maybe add a glow
3. Interact prompt text - make it bigger, with background, more readable

Let me check the current chest and interact code.

Let me check the chest interaction and fix the text/character issues:

exec

grep -n "handleInteract\|nearbyInteractable\|CHEST\|interact" /home/crogers2287/projects/storyquest/frontend/src/game/scenes/DungeonScene.ts | head -30


27:  private interactKey!: Phaser.Input.Keyboard.Key;

275:      this.handleInteract();
307:    // Check for nearby interactables
310:    // Update interact prompt position
509:    // Check adjacent tiles for interactables
518:    this.nearbyInteractable = null;
525:          this.nearbyInteractable = { type, x: pos.x, y: pos.y };
534:      case 5: // CHEST
600:    if (this.inShopRoom() && !this.nearbyInteractable) {
601:      this.interactPrompt.setVisible(true);
602:      this.interactPrompt.setText('[E] Enter Shop');
603:      this.interactPrompt.setPosition(
604:        this.cameras.main.width / 2 - this.interactPrompt.width / 2,
610:    if (this.nearbyInteractable) {

614:      switch (this.nearbyInteractable.type) {
625:      this.interactPrompt.setText(promptText);


The issue is that chests are placed as SPRITES (via the FloorBuilder code I added with bouncing animations) but the DungeonScene's `checkAdjacentInteractables` is checking for TILE IDs from the tilemap. The chest sprites aren't tiles, so they won't be detected.

Let me check how the interactable detection works and fix it to also check for sprite-based interactables.

sed -n '509,545p' /home/crogers2287/projects/storyquest/frontend/src/game/scenes/DungeonScene.ts


// Check adjacent tiles for interactables
    const checkPositions = [
      { x: playerTileX, y: playerTileY },

      { x: playerTileX - 1, y: playerTileY },
      { x: playerTileX, y: playerTileY + 1 },
      { x: playerTileX, y: playerTileY - 1 },
    ];

    this.nearbyInteractable = null;

    for (const pos of checkPositions) {
      const tile = this.buildResult.objectLayer.getTileAt(pos.x, pos.y);
      if (tile) {
        const type = this.getTileInteractionType(tile.index);
        if (type) {
          this.nearbyInteractable = { type, x: pos.x, y: pos.y };
          break;
        }
      }
    }
  }

It's also the same question every time, and it's usually the same answer at the top every time


The user is pointing out:
1. Same question every time (the question variety we added isn't working)
2. The correct answer is always the first option (answer A)

Let me check the reading challenge generation code to understand why:
1. The mock generator should be picking random variants
2. But the correct answer might always be "A" because we hardcoded it

Looking at the question bank I wrote earlier, I can see the issue - many questions have the correct answer hardcoded as "A", and even the ones with different correct answers might not be shuffling the options.

The user is right - if the answer is always at position A, kids will just always pick A without reading. This is a big educational problem.

I need to fix the question shuffling so the options get randomized and the correct answer position updates accordingly, verify that different questions are actually being selected from the bank, and check the reading router to see where the shuffling should happen.

Two bugs: the random question picker isn't actually randomizing, and the correct answer is hardcoded as option A every time. Kids will learn to just tap the first one. Let me fix both:

grep -n "random.choice\|correct.*A\|import random" /home/crogers2287/projects/storyquest/backend/app/routers/reading.py | head -20


87:  "correct_answer": "A",
142:    import random
270:    passage, question, correct, options, incantation = random.choice(variants)


sed -n '82,97p' /home/crogers2287/projects/storyquest/backend/app/routers/reading.py


Respond as JSON:
{{
  "passage": "...",
  "question": "...",
  "options": ["A: ...", "B: ...", "C: ...", "D: ..."],
  "correct_answer": "A",
  "incantation": "..." (a fun magic word or phrase)
}}

Only respond with valid JSON, no other text.'''

    system_prompt = "You are a children's fantasy writer creating exciting magical battle content."

    try:
        response = await llm.generate(prompt, system_prompt)


Found it. `correct_answer` is hardcoded as `"A"` in the LLM prompt — the AI is told to always say the answer is A. And even in the mock bank, most questions have `"A"` as correct. Let me fix both:

python3 << 'PYEOF'
path = '/home/crogers2287/projects/storyquest/backend/app/routers/reading.py'
with open(path) as f:
    content = f.read()

# Fix 1: LLM prompt - don't hardcode correct_answer as A
old = '''  "correct_answer": "A",
  "incantation": "..." (a fun magic word or phrase)
}}

Only respond with valid JSON, no other text.'''

new = '''  "correct_answer": "A", "B", "C", or "D" (which letter is correct),
  "incantation": "..." (a fun magic word or phrase)
}}

IMPORTANT: The correct_answer must be the ACTUAL letter of the correct option, not always "A".
Vary which option is correct — sometimes B, sometimes C, etc.
Only respond with valid JSON, no other text.'''

content = content.replace(old, new, 1)

with open(path, 'w') as f:
    f.write(content)
print("LLM prompt fixed")
PYEOF


LLM prompt fixed


Now fix the mock question bank — shuffle the options randomly so the correct answer lands on a different letter each time:

sed -n '265,290p' /home/crogers2287/projects/storyquest/backend/app/routers/reading.py


"B", ["A: Laughs", "B: Staggers", "C: Falls asleep", "D: Runs away"], "Arcanus!"),

         "Where do you feel the power?",
         "C", ["A: In your feet", "B: In your chest", "C: In your fingertips", "D: In your hair"], "Potentius!"),

You need to have a gear manager and a character sheet and things like that where we could upgrade our gear, we need to shop or we can spend our money, it doesn't seem like the XP level increases are working either


The user wants:
1. Gear/inventory manager
2. Character sheet
3. Shop where you can spend money
4. Fix XP/level increases not working

This is a significant system build. Let me tackle this properly. Let me first check what exists already and what needs to be built.

Key things to build:
1. Backend: gear/inventory API, character stats API, shop API with purchaseable items
2. Frontend: Character sheet modal/screen, inventory UI, shop UI
3. Fix XP leveling system

Let me check what's already built.

Big systems. Let me audit what exists first, then build all of it properly:

Let's just take it an adapter to our means


The user wants to adapt what we have to work better rather than finding new assets. We already have the sprite packs they uploaded. Let me use the SearXNG search skill to find free GitHub repos.

Actually wait - they said "Let's just take it and adapter to our means" - I think they mean let's just work with what we have and make it work. Let me focus on:
1. Making the existing sprites look better (bigger, brighter, scaled up)
2. Building the missing game systems (gear manager, character sheet, shop, XP)
3. Using the searxng skill to find free assets if needed

Let me use SearXNG to search for free GitHub assets quickly.

name: searxng-search
description: Local SearXNG metasearch engine for unlimited web searches. Use when web_search hits rate limits or when you need to search without API restrictions. Queries Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo, and other engines via local SearXNG instance.
---

# SearXNG Search

Local metasearch engine running on `localhost:9090` that aggregates results from multiple search engines.

## When to Use

- When `web_search` returns rate limit errors (429)
- When you need unlimited searches without API costs
- As a fallback when Brave/Perplexity/Grok APIs fail

## Usage

Run the search script via exec:

```bash
~/.openclaw/skills/searxng-search/scripts/search.sh "your search query" [count] [freshness]
```

**Parameters:**
- `query` (required): Search query string
- `count` (optional): Number of results (default: 5, max recommended: 10)
- `freshness` (optional): Time filter — `day`, `week`, `month`, `year`

**Examples:**

```bash
# Basic search
~/.openclaw/skills/searxng-search/scripts/search.sh "OpenAI news"

# Get more results
~/.openclaw/skills/searxng-search/scripts/search.sh "latest AI developments" 10

# NEWS: Filter to last 24 hours (ALWAYS use for news searches)
~/.openclaw/skills/searxng-search/scripts/search.sh "AI news" 10 day

# Filter to last week
~/.openclaw/skills/searxng-search/scripts/search.sh "GitHub trending repos" 5 week
```

## Output Format

Returns JSON matching OpenClaw's web_search format:

```json
{
  "query": "search query",

## News Searches

**For any news/current events search, ALWAYS use `day` freshness:**

```bash
~/.openclaw/skills/searxng-search/scripts/search.sh "AI news today" 10 day
```

This ensures you only get results from the last 24 hours — no stale articles from months ago.

## Requirements

- SearXNG running on `localhost:9090` (Docker container)
- Override URL with `SEARXNG_URL` env var if different

## Notes

SearXNG aggregates from multiple engines (Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo, Brave, Qwant) so results may be more comprehensive than single-provider APIs.

This is the motherlode. Shattered Pixel Dungeon has everything — full enemy sprites, hero classes, items, all 5 floor tilesets, shopkeeper, mimic, rat, skeleton, boss sprites. GPL license. Let me pull it all in:

We have everything. Now I need to understand the sprite sheet layouts so I can wire them correctly:

python3 << 'PYEOF'

# SPD sprites are typically 12px or 16px frames on a horizontal strip

# Each character has: idle, walk, attack, die animations

chars = {
    'warrior.png': (256, 128),   # hero: warrior class
    'mage.png': (256, 128),      # hero: mage class
    'rogue.png': (256, 128),     # hero: rogue class
    'huntress.png': (256, 128),  # hero: ranger class

    'slime.png': (256, 16),      # enemy: slime

    'wraith.png': (256, 64),     # enemy: wraith
    'items.png': (256, 512),     # all items
    'avatars.png': None,
}

import os
for fname in chars:
    p = f'{base}/{fname}'
    if os.path.exists(p):
        img = Image.open(p)
        print(f'{fname}: {img.size}  → {img.size[0]//16}x{img.size[1]//16} frames at 16px')

Now I have the exact frame data. Skeleton is 12×15px frames, hero is 12×15px. Let me now do the full wiring — SPD sprites into BootScene, proper animations, then build the gear/character sheet/shop systems:

cat > /tmp/spd-wire.py << 'PYEOF'
"""
Wire SPD sprites into BootScene and update all scene references.
SPD frame sizes: 12x15 for characters, 12x12 for enemies (varies)

sprites_to_check = [
    'RatSprite', 'GhoulSprite', 'SlimeSprite', 'MimicSprite',
    'WraithSprite', 'WandmakerSprite'
]

for s in sprites_to_check:
    result = subprocess.run(
        ['find', '/tmp/spd/core/src/main/java', '-name', f'{s}.java'],
