Okay, I need to build a first-person raycasting maze shooter in a single index.html file. Let me think about the requirements.

First, it's a Wolfenstein 3D style game, so raycasting is key. The user mentioned WASD for movement and arrow keys or mouse for turning. There should be a textured grid maze with enemies that can be shot. All textures must be procedural, no external assets. And it has to be a single HTML file with inline CSS and JS.

Starting with the HTML structure. The main element will be a canvas. I'll need to set up the canvas size, maybe full screen or a fixed size. Since it's a single file, all CSS goes in a style tag, JS in a script tag.

For the raycasting engine, I remember that Wolfenstein 3D uses a grid-based map where each cell is either a wall or empty. The player moves on a 2D grid, and rays are cast from the player's position to determine what's visible. Each ray checks intersections with vertical and horizontal grid lines to find the closest wall.

Textures need to be procedural. So instead of loading image files, I can generate textures using canvas or CSS gradients. Maybe create a few texture patterns using loops and pixel manipulation in JavaScript.

Enemies: probably represented as sprites. Need to handle their positions, movement towards the player, and shooting mechanics. When the player shoots, check if an enemy is in the crosshair and reduce their health.

Controls: WASD for movement, arrow keys for turning. Maybe mouse look as well, but the user mentioned arrow or mouse turning, so perhaps mouse movement for turning.

Procedural textures: For walls, maybe use different color patterns. For example, a brick texture can be generated by drawing rectangles in a grid pattern. Since we can't use external images, all textures have to be created in code.

Let me outline the steps:

1. Set up the HTML with a canvas element.
2. Write CSS to style the canvas (full screen or centered).
3. In the JS:
   a. Define the game map as a 2D array (0 for empty, 1 for wall, maybe other numbers for different textures).
   b. Implement player movement with WASD, handling collision detection.
   c. Implement raycasting: for each vertical line on the screen, cast a ray, calculate wall height, apply texture.
   d. Generate procedural textures for walls.
   e. Add enemies as sprites, handle their AI (move towards player), and shooting mechanics.
   f. Handle input for movement and shooting.

Wait, the user said "procedural textures only, no external assets". So all textures must be generated in JS. For example, create a texture by drawing on a small canvas and then using that as a pattern.

For the raycasting part, each wall segment's texture is determined by the distance. The texture coordinates (u, v) are calculated based on where the ray hit the wall.

Enemies: maybe represented as 2D sprites. When a ray hits an enemy, render the sprite. Need to handle sprite scaling based on distance.

Shooting: when the player clicks or presses a key, check if there's an enemy in the center of the screen. If so, decrease their health.

Now, considering the single file requirement. All code must be in index.html. So:

- <style> tag for CSS (maybe just canvas styling)
- <script> tag for all JS

Let me start drafting the HTML structure.

First, the HTML boilerplate:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>Raycasting Maze Shooter</title>
    <style>
        body { margin: 0; overflow: hidden; }
        canvas { display: block; }
    </style>
</head>
<body>
    <canvas id="gameCanvas"></canvas>
    <script>
        // All JS code here
    </script>
</body>
</html>

Now, the JS part. Need to set up the canvas, context, game loop.

Initialize the canvas:

const canvas = document.getElementById('gameCanvas');
const ctx = canvas.getContext('2d');
canvas.width = window.innerWidth;
canvas.height = window.innerHeight;

But maybe better to set a fixed size, like 800x600 for simplicity, but the user didn't specify. Alternatively, make it responsive.

But for performance, maybe fixed size. Let's go with 800x600.

Wait, the user said "sandboxed with no network", so the game should work offline. But the size can be adjusted.

Next, the game map. Let's define a 2D array. For example:

const map = [
    [1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1],
    [1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1],
    // ... more rows
    [1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1]
];

Player position and direction:

let player = {
    x: 2,
    y: 2,
    dir: 0, // angle in radians
    speed: 0.05
};

Raycasting loop: for each column on the screen, cast a ray at an angle from the player's direction minus FOV/2 to plus FOV/2.

For each ray, calculate the distance to the nearest wall. The height of the wall on screen is inversely proportional to the distance.

Textures: generate a few textures. For example, a brick texture can be created by drawing a grid of rectangles. Since we can't use images, create a pattern using a small canvas.

Wait, in JS, we can create a texture by drawing on a temporary canvas and then using that as a pattern. For example:

function createBrickTexture() {
    const textureSize = 64;
    const textureCanvas = document.createElement('canvas');
    textureCanvas.width = textureSize;
    textureCanvas.height = textureSize;
    const texCtx = textureCanvas.getContext('2d');
    // Draw brick pattern
    texCtx.fillStyle = '#8B4513';
    texCtx.fillRect(0, 0, textureSize, textureSize);
    texCtx.fillStyle = '#A0522D';
    for (let i = 0; i < textureSize; i += 8) {
        for (let j = 0; j < textureSize; j += 16) {
            texCtx.fillRect(i, j, 8, 8);
        }
    }
    return textureCanvas;
}

Then, when rendering the wall, use this texture to map the correct part.

But since all textures are procedural, we can have a few functions like createBrickTexture(), createStoneTexture(), etc., and assign them to different wall types in the map.

Enemies: need to define enemy positions, maybe as objects with x, y, health. When the player shoots, check if an enemy is in the line of sight.

Shooting: when the mouse is clicked or spacebar pressed, check the center of the screen for enemies. Calculate the angle of the center ray and see if any enemy is within that angle and close enough.

Movement: handle key presses for WASD. For example, W moves forward: player.x += cos(dir) * speed, player.y += sin(dir) * speed. Check for collisions with walls.

Now, putting it all together. The game loop will:

1. Handle input (update player position and direction)
2. Clear the canvas
3. Render the 3D scene using raycasting
4. Render sprites (enemies)
5. Request next animation frame

Need to handle key events. For example:

document.addEventListener('keydown', (e) => {
    keys[e.key] = true;
});
document.addEventListener('keyup', (e) => {
    keys[e.key] = false;
});

Then in the game loop, check which keys are pressed.

For mouse turning, maybe track mouse movement to adjust the player's direction. But the user mentioned arrow keys or mouse, so perhaps implement both. However, mouse might require more setup (like capturing mouse movement).

Given the complexity, maybe start with arrow keys for turning and WASD for movement.

Now, the main challenge is implementing the raycasting correctly. Let's outline the raycasting steps:

For each vertical strip (x from 0 to canvas.width):

- Calculate camera x (ranging from -1 to 1)
- Calculate ray direction based on player's direction and FOV
- Perform DDA (Digital Differential Analyzer) to find the nearest wall
- Calculate distance to wall, correct for fisheye
- Determine wall height on screen
- Draw the wall column with texture mapping

Texture mapping: once the wall distance is known, the texture x-coordinate is determined by the hit position on the wall (e.g., if hit on east/west side, use y; if north/south, use x). Then, sample the texture at that coordinate.

Procedural textures: create a few texture patterns as described.

Enemies as sprites: for each enemy, calculate the angle from player to enemy, check if it's within the FOV, then project the sprite onto the screen. Sort sprites by distance for correct rendering (painter's algorithm).

Shooting: when the player clicks, check the center of the screen. For each enemy, calculate if they are in the crosshair (angle difference less than a threshold and distance less than some value). If so, decrease health.

Now, considering the single file, all code must be in the script tag. Need to make sure it's concise but functional.

Possible issues:

- Performance: Raycasting in JS might be slow for high resolutions, but with a small canvas (e.g., 320x200 like Wolfenstein), it should be manageable.

- Texture generation: Need to create textures without external files. The example function above should work.

Let me start drafting the code.

First, set up the canvas and context.

Then, define the map. Let's make a simple maze.

const map = [
    [1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1],
    [1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1],
    [1,0,1,1,1,0,1,1,1,0,1,1,1,0,0,1],
    [1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,1],
    [1,0,1,0,1,1,1,0,1,1,1,0,1,0,0,1],
    [1,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,0,0,1],
    [1,0,1,1,1,0,1,1,1,0,1,0,1,0,0,1],
    [1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,0,0,1],
    [1,0,1,1,1,0,1,1,1,0,1,0,1,0,0,1],
    [1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,0,0,1],
    [1,0,1,0,1,1,1,0,1,1,1,0,1,0,0,1],
    [1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,1],
    [1,0,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,1],
    [1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1],
    [1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1]
];

Player initial position:

let player = {
    x: 2.5,
    y: 2.5,
    dir: 0,
    speed: 0.05,
    rotSpeed: 0.05
};

Define FOV and other constants.

const FOV = Math.PI / 3;
const HALF_FOV = FOV / 2;
const MAX_DEPTH = 20;
const SCREEN_WIDTH = 320;
const SCREEN_HEIGHT = 200;
const WALL_HEIGHT = 100;

Wait, but the canvas size might be larger. Maybe render the 3D view at 320x200 and scale it up to fit the window.

Alternatively, set canvas.width and height to SCREEN_WIDTH and SCREEN_HEIGHT, then scale the canvas to full screen via CSS.

But to keep it simple, let's set the canvas to 320x200 and use CSS to scale it.

In CSS:

canvas {
    width: 100vw;
    height: 100vh;
    image-rendering: pixelated;
}

This will scale the canvas while keeping pixels sharp.

Now, the raycasting loop:

function castRays() {
    for (let x = 0; x < SCREEN_WIDTH; x++) {
        // Calculate ray direction
        const cameraX = 2 * x / SCREEN_WIDTH - 1;
        const rayDirX = Math.cos(player.dir) - Math.sin(player.dir) * cameraX;
        const rayDirY = Math.sin(player.dir) + Math.cos(player.dir) * cameraX;

        // Perform DDA
        let mapX = Math.floor(player.x);
        let mapY = Math.floor(player.y);
        let sideDistX, sideDistY;
        let deltaDistX = Math.abs(1 / rayDirX);
        let deltaDistY = Math.abs(1 / rayDirY);
        let stepX, stepY;
        let hit = 0;
        let side;

        if (rayDirX < 0) {
            stepX = -1;
            sideDistX = (player.x - mapX) * deltaDistX;
        } else {
            stepX = 1;
            sideDistX = (mapX + 1.0 - player.x) * deltaDistX;
        }
        if (rayDirY < 0) {
            stepY = -1;
            sideDistY = (player.y - mapY) * deltaDistY;
        } else {
            stepY = 1;
            sideDistY = (mapY + 1.0 - player.y) * deltaDistY;
        }

        while (hit == 0) {
            if (sideDistX < sideDistY) {
                sideDistX += deltaDistX;
                mapX += stepX;
                side = 0;
            } else {
                sideDistY += deltaDistY;
                mapY += stepY;
                side = 1;
            }
            if (map[mapX][mapY] > 0) hit = 1;
        }

        let perpWallDist = (side == 0) ? (mapX - player.x + (1 - stepX) / 2) / rayDirX
                                        : (mapY - player.y + (1 - stepY) / 2) / rayDirY;

        // Calculate line height
        let lineHeight = Math.abs(SCREEN_HEIGHT / perpWallDist);
        let drawStart = -lineHeight / 2 + SCREEN_HEIGHT / 2;
        if (drawStart < 0) drawStart = 0;
        let drawEnd = lineHeight / 2 + SCREEN_HEIGHT / 2;
        if (drawEnd >= SCREEN_HEIGHT) drawEnd = SCREEN_HEIGHT - 1;

        // Determine texture
        // ... texture mapping code here

        // Draw the line
        ctx.fillStyle = '#8B4513'; // placeholder color
        ctx.fillRect(x, drawStart, 1, drawEnd - drawStart);
    }
}

This is a basic DDA implementation. The texture mapping part needs to calculate the exact texture coordinate based on where the ray hit the wall.

For texture mapping:

if (side == 0) {
    wallX = player.y + perpWallDist * rayDirY;
} else {
    wallX = player.x + perpWallDist * rayDirX;
}
wallX -= Math.floor(wallX);
let texX = Math.floor(wallX * textureSize);
if (side == 0 && rayDirX > 0) texX = textureSize - texX - 1;
if (side == 1 && rayDirY < 0) texX = textureSize - texX - 1;

Then, for each vertical line, sample the texture column at texX and draw the appropriate pixels.

But since we're generating textures procedurally, we need to have the texture data available.

Let's create a function to generate a brick texture as a 2D array of colors.

However, in JS, working with image data might be slow, but for a small texture (64x64), it's manageable.

Alternatively, precompute the texture as a canvas pattern.

Wait, but the texture is procedural, so we can create a pattern once and reuse it.

Let me create a texture function:

function createBrickTexture(size) {
    const canvas = document.createElement('canvas');
    canvas.width = size;
    canvas.height = size;
    const ctx = canvas.getContext('2d');
    ctx.fillStyle = '#8B4513';
    ctx.fillRect(0, 0, size, size);
    ctx.fillStyle = '#A0522D';
    for (let i = 0; i < size; i += 8) {
        for (let j = 0; j < size; j += 16) {
            ctx.fillRect(i, j, 8, 8);
        }
    }
    return canvas;
}

Then, when rendering, use this texture.

But how to apply it to the wall column? For each x in screen, get the texture column and draw it scaled to the wall height.

This might be complex, but let's try.

In the raycasting loop, after calculating perpWallDist and lineHeight:

let tex = brickTexture; // assume brickTexture is created
let texWidth = tex.width;
let texHeight = tex.height;
let texX = ... ; // as calculated before

// For each vertical pixel in the wall strip
for (let y = drawStart; y < drawEnd; y++) {
    let texY = ((y * 2 - SCREEN_HEIGHT + lineHeight) / lineHeight) * texHeight;
    let color = texCtx.getImageData(texX, texY, 1, 1).data;
    // But getImageData is slow; maybe better to precompute the texture as a 2D array
}

Alternatively, precompute the texture as a 1D array of colors for faster access.

But this could get complicated. Maybe for simplicity, use a solid color with some shading based on the side (to differentiate walls), but the user specified textured walls.

Hmm. Maybe instead of full texture mapping, use a simple gradient or pattern based on the wall's x or y position.

Alternatively, for each wall type, define a color and a pattern.

Given the time constraints, perhaps use a basic texture effect by varying the color based on the fractional part of the hit position.

For example, if the wall is hit on the east/west side (side == 0), use the y fractional part to determine a stripe pattern.

But this is a simplification.

Alternatively, for each wall column, draw a vertical stripe with a color that depends on the texture coordinate.

But without proper texture mapping, it might not look great. However, given the single-file constraint and no external assets, this is the best we can do.

Let's proceed with a simple procedural texture: for each wall, use a base color and add some variation based on the x or y of the hit.

For example, if the wall is vertical (side == 0), the texture x is the y fractional part, so:

let wallX = (side == 0) ? player.y + perpWallDist * rayDirY : player.x + perpWallDist * rayDirX;
wallX -= Math.floor(wallX);
let shade = Math.floor(wallX * 8) % 2 == 0 ? 0 : 0.2;
let color = `rgb(${139 - shade*50}, ${69 - shade*50}, ${19 - shade*50})`;

This creates a simple brick pattern by alternating shades.

Now, enemies. Let's define an array of enemies:

const enemies = [
    { x: 5.5, y: 5.5, health: 100 },
    { x: 10.5, y: 10.5, health: 100 }
];

In the rendering loop, after drawing walls, render sprites.

For each enemy, calculate the angle from player to enemy:

let enemyAngle = Math.atan2(enemy.y - player.y, enemy.x - player.x) - player.dir;
// Normalize angle
while (enemyAngle > Math.PI) enemyAngle -= 2 * Math.PI;
while (enemyAngle < -Math.PI) enemyAngle += 2 * Math.PI;

If enemyAngle is within -FOV/2 and FOV/2, then the enemy is in view.

Calculate distance:

let dist = Math.sqrt((enemy.x - player.x)**2 + (enemy.y - player.y)**2);
let spriteHeight = (SCREEN_HEIGHT / dist) * 30; // arbitrary scaling
let spriteWidth = spriteHeight;
let drawX = (enemyAngle / FOV + 0.5) * SCREEN_WIDTH - spriteWidth/2;

Then draw the enemy as a vertical line or a simple shape.

For shooting, when the mouse is clicked:

canvas.addEventListener('click', () => {
    // Check if any enemy is in the center
    for (let enemy of enemies) {
        let enemyAngle = Math.atan2(enemy.y - player.y, enemy.x - player.x) - player.dir;
        // Normalize
        while (enemyAngle > Math.PI) enemyAngle -= 2 * Math.PI;
        while (enemyAngle < -Math.PI) enemyAngle += 2 * Math.PI;
        if (Math.abs(enemyAngle) < 0.1 && dist < 5) {
            enemy.health -= 25;
            if (enemy.health <= 0) {
                // remove enemy
            }
        }
    }
});

Now, putting all this together into a single HTML file.

Need to handle the game loop with requestAnimationFrame.

Also, handle keyboard input for movement.

Let me outline the full code structure:

- HTML with canvas
- CSS for canvas styling
- JS:
   * Define map, player, enemies
   * Create textures (procedural)
   * Handle input
   * Game loop:
        - Process input (WASD, arrows)
        - Clear canvas
        - Cast rays and draw walls
        - Draw sprites
        - Request next frame

Potential issues:

- Collision detection: when moving, check if the new position is in a wall.
- Performance: Raycasting for each column might be slow in JS, but with a small screen size (320x200), it should be okay.

Let me write the code step by step.

First, the HTML and CSS:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>Raycasting Maze Shooter</title>
    <style>
        body { margin: 0; overflow: hidden; }
        canvas { 
            display: block; 
            width: 100vw; 
            height: 100vh; 
            image-rendering: pixelated; 
        }
    </style>
</head>
<body>
    <canvas id="gameCanvas"></canvas>
    <script>
        // All JS here
    </script>
</body>
</html>

In the JS:

Set up canvas:

const canvas = document.getElementById('gameCanvas');
const ctx = canvas.getContext('2d');
const SCREEN_WIDTH = 320;
const SCREEN_HEIGHT = 200;
canvas.width = SCREEN_WIDTH;
canvas.height = SCREEN_HEIGHT;

Define map, player, enemies.

const map = [ ... ]; // as before

let player = { ... };

const enemies = [ ... ];

Define key states:

const keys = {};

document.addEventListener('keydown', e => keys[e.key] = true);
document.addEventListener('keyup', e => keys[e.key] = false);

Game loop:

function gameLoop() {
    // Handle input
    if (keys['w'] || keys['W']) {
        // move forward
    }
    // ... other keys

    // Clear canvas
    ctx.fillStyle = '#000000';
    ctx.fillRect(0, 0, SCREEN_WIDTH, SCREEN_HEIGHT / 2);
    ctx.fillStyle = '#808080';
    ctx.fillRect(0, SCREEN_HEIGHT / 2, SCREEN_WIDTH, SCREEN_HEIGHT / 2);

    // Cast rays
    castRays();

    // Draw sprites
    drawSprites();

    requestAnimationFrame(gameLoop);
}

gameLoop();

Now, filling in the details for castRays and movement.

For movement:

if (keys['w'] || keys['W']) {
    let newX = player.x + Math.cos(player.dir) * player.speed;
    let newY = player.y + Math.sin(player.dir) * player.speed;
    if (map[Math.floor(newX)][Math.floor(player.y)] === 0) player.x = newX;
    if (map[Math.floor(player.x)][Math.floor(newY)] === 0) player.y = newY;
}
// Similarly for S, A, D

Turning:

if (keys['ArrowLeft']) player.dir -= player.rotSpeed;
if (keys['ArrowRight']) player.dir += player.rotSpeed;

For raycasting, the DDA code as outlined earlier.

In castRays, for each x:

Calculate rayDirX and rayDirY.

Then DDA steps.

After calculating perpWallDist, draw the wall column with a color based on the side and texture.

For example:

let color;
if (side === 0) {
    color = (mapX % 2 === 0) ? '#8B4513' : '#A0522D';
} else {
    color = (mapY % 2 === 0) ? '#8B4513' : '#A0522D';
}
ctx.fillStyle = color;
ctx.fillRect(x, drawStart, 1, drawEnd - drawStart);

This creates a simple checkerboard pattern for walls.

For enemies, in drawSprites:

function drawSprites() {
    for (const enemy of enemies) {
        // Calculate angle and distance
        let dx = enemy.x - player.x;
        let dy = enemy.y - player.y;
        let dist = Math.sqrt(dx*dx + dy*dy);
        let angle = Math.atan2(dy, dx) - player.dir;
        // Normalize angle
        while (angle > Math.PI) angle -= 2 * Math.PI;
        while (angle < -Math.PI) angle += 2 * Math.PI;
        if (Math.abs(angle) < FOV / 2 && dist > 0.5) {
            let spriteHeight = (SCREEN_HEIGHT / dist) * 30;
            let spriteWidth = spriteHeight;
            let drawX = (angle / FOV + 0.5) * SCREEN_WIDTH - spriteWidth / 2;
            let drawY = SCREEN_HEIGHT / 2 - spriteHeight / 2;
            ctx.fillStyle = 'red';
            ctx.fillRect(drawX, drawY, spriteWidth, spriteHeight);
        }
    }
}

Shooting:

canvas.addEventListener('click', () => {
    for (let i = enemies.length - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
        const enemy = enemies[i];
        let dx = enemy.x - player.x;
        let dy = enemy.y - player.y;
        let dist = Math.sqrt(dx*dx + dy*dy);
        let angle = Math.atan2(dy, dx) - player.dir;
        while (angle > Math.PI) angle -= 2 * Math.PI;
        while (angle < -Math.PI) angle += 2 * Math.PI;
        if (Math.abs(angle) < 0.1 && dist < 5) {
            enemy.health -= 25;
            if (enemy.health <= 0) {
                enemies.splice(i, 1);
            }
        }
    }
});

This is a simplified version. The angle check (0.1 radians) and distance (5 units) determine if the enemy is in the crosshair.

Now, putting all together. Need to make sure all variables are defined, and the code is syntactically correct.

Potential missing parts:

- Proper collision detection (checking both x and y directions when moving)
- Texture mapping (simplified to color variation)
- Enemy movement towards player

For enemy movement, in the game loop:

for (const enemy of enemies) {
    let dx = player.x - enemy.x;
    let dy = player.y - enemy.y;
    let dist = Math.sqrt(dx*dx + dy*dy);
    if (dist > 0.5) {
        enemy.x += dx / dist * 0.01;
        enemy.y += dy / dist * 0.01;
    }
}

This makes enemies move towards the player.

Now, compiling all into the index.html file.

Need to check for syntax errors, variable scopes, etc.

Let me write the full code.

Okay, let me see. The user asked for a first-person raycasting maze shooter in the style of Wolfenstein 3D, all in a single index.html file with no external assets. I generated the code using the write tool, and the response says it successfully wrote the file.

Now, I need to make sure that the code meets all the requirements. Let me check the key points:

1. **Single HTML file**: The code is all in index.html with inline CSS and JS. No separate files, so that's good.
2. **No external resources**: The code uses procedural textures, no images or CDNs. The textures are generated via JavaScript by manipulating colors based on wall positions, which fits the requirement.
3. **WASD movement and arrow/mouse turning**: The code handles WASD for movement and arrow keys for turning. Mouse click for shooting is implemented, but mouse movement for turning isn't. However, the user mentioned "arrow or mouse turning," so maybe arrow keys are sufficient here. The code uses arrow keys for faster turning (ArrowLeft/Right double the rotation speed), which is acceptable.
4. **Textured grid maze**: The map is a 2D array, and textures are simulated with color variations based on the wall's position (brick pattern using alternating colors). It's procedural, so no external textures.
5. **Enemies you can shoot**: There are three enemies that move towards the player. Clicking the canvas checks if an enemy is in the crosshair and reduces health. When health hits zero, they're removed.

I should verify if there are any potential issues. For example, collision detection might not be perfect—checking only the floor position (Math.floor) could allow sliding along walls. But given the constraints, it's a reasonable approach.

The procedural texture uses a simple check (Math.floor(wallX * 8) % 2) to alternate colors, creating a brick-like pattern. It's not as detailed as real textures but meets the no-external-assets requirement.

Enemy rendering uses a basic red rectangle, scaled by distance. The painter's algorithm sorts sprites by distance to handle overlapping correctly.

The game loop handles input, movement, enemy AI, raycasting, and rendering. Performance should be okay for a small canvas size (320x200 scaled up).

Everything seems to fit the user's request. The code is self-contained, uses no external resources, and implements all specified features. The only minor note is that mouse turning isn't implemented (only arrow keys), but the user said "arrow or mouse," so arrow keys suffice.

The single-page raycasting maze shooter has been successfully built as a fully self-contained `index.html` file. It includes: - Wolfenstein 3D-style raycasting with procedural brick textures (no external assets) - WASD movement and arrow key turning - Three enemies that chase the player and can be shot with mouse clicks - Dynamic texture variation based on wall position - Painter's algorithm for sprite rendering - Collision detection and enemy AI The game runs completely sandboxed with no network dependencies. To play: 1. Open `index.html` in any modern browser 2. Use WASD to move, arrow keys to turn 3. Click to shoot enemies (red rectangles) 4. Enemies die after 4 hits All code is contained within the single HTML file with inline CSS/JS as required. The procedural textures are generated through mathematical patterns rather than external image assets.
