What this is

A 3D mega-world recreation of a comic-book metropolis on a superhero night. Six sub-locations sit in one three.js scene: procedural downtown blocks with cloned canvas-window textures, Pier 7 harbor with water + a docked ship + three cranes + containers, Union subway pit with platforms and a lit train, City Hall as a stepped tower with a dome, Hero HQ topped with a radar tower, and MNN news station with a red antenna and dish. Four named heroes — NEON CRUSADER, SKYWARDEN, PHASEKICK, AURA — patrol with eight-segment trailing cape meshes and per-hero power FX (electric arc, solar glow, speed trail, psychic ring). Four named villains — BARON COIL, THE FACADE, GRIDLOCK, HOLLOWMARK — escalate. 240 InstancedMesh civilians fill the streets between them. A news chopper picture-in-picture camera circles the action while seventeen ground director cameras cut every four to seven seconds. The MNN HUD runs a digital clock, threat meter, active incidents feed, Hero Command status panel, and a rotating "WHO IS" lower-third for the featured cast.

You don't play it. You watch it.

Why this is mind-blowing

The night actually has a seven-act narrative shape. DUSK is patrol cams over the harbor. CRIME WAVE drops the threat meter into orange and triggers villain wandering near City Hall and the subway. HEROES RESPOND retargets each hero onto a different villain. VILLAINS ESCALATE pushes the threat meter into red and the chyron starts running breaking-news strips. TEAM-UP routes two heroes together. RESOLUTION calms the fog color, drops the threat meter, and routes civilians back to the streets. DAWN warms the sky from night → orange → dawn, ignites streetlight flicker, and the chyron prints "THE NIGHT IS WON / DAWN BREAKS OVER METROPOLIS" right before the world reseeds with new heroes and a new villain roster. The chopper-cam PIP is the secret weapon — every act has both a wide circling shot and a close ground angle, like an actual network-news production. It's the comic-book stream you'd put on while you fall asleep.
