Rudi Foodi features two cinematic event sequences that interrupt normal gameplay and take over the camera: the Meteor Ending and the Fly-Away Ending. Both are fully scripted with timed phases, animated 3D objects, and a concluding message screen. Neither can fire while the other is already running, and both are cleanly undone by the “Go Back” button which calls resetGameToMenu().

​
Meteor Ending

The Meteor ending triggers every time Rudi steps onto the golden octahedron Ending Star (THREE.OctahedronGeometry) that appears somewhere on the map. The star rotates and drifts as you explore — get within 7 units of it and triggerMeteorEnding() fires automatically.
1

Trigger

Rudi collides with the Ending Star (endingStar.position.distanceTo(rudiPos) < 7). The star is removed from the scene and triggerMeteorEnding() is called. The HUD, joystick, and ZOOMIES button are hidden. Scene fog is disabled.
2

Descent (0 → ~7 s)

A massive meteor (THREE.SphereGeometry(24, 96, 64)) with a glowing lava texture appears at y = 260. It falls toward y = 65 at a rate of 32 units per second, spinning on both axes. A THREE.PointLight at intensity 8 tracks the meteor to cast dramatic lighting. The camera is locked at (0, 70, 280) looking up at the incoming rock.
3

Impact (meteor.position.y ≤ 65)

The meteor becomes invisible and explodeRoom() fires. Every visible mesh in the scene (except the meteor core and Rudi’s body parts) is turned invisible and replaced by debris chunks launched with addDebris(). An additional 90 extra debris pieces scatter outward from ground zero. A low-frequency sawtooth beep plays. The #explosionOverlay div flashes white.
4

Aftermath (meteorTimer > 6 s)

Once meteorTimer exceeds 6 seconds, advanceLevelAfterMeteor() is called. If currentLevel < MAX_LEVELS (20), the game advances to the next level: debris is cleared, Rudi is repositioned to the origin, all state is reset, and spawnLevel() runs the new map. If already at level 20, showEnding("🐶 Good job, you won!", true) is called directly — the game is over and the leaderboard prompt appears.
The Ending Star repositions to a new random location each time a level advances (via moveEndingStar()). Finding it is optional — you can complete a level purely by collecting enough treats — but touching it immediately skips to the dramatic Meteor sequence and the next level.

​
Fly-Away Ending

The Fly-Away ending triggers when currentLevel >= MAX_LEVELS (20), score >= 30, and neither ending is already running. 
if (currentLevel >= MAX_LEVELS && score >= 30 && !flyAwayEnding && !meteorEnding)
  triggerFlyAwayEnding();
1

Trigger

triggerFlyAwayEnding() is called. The HUD, joystick, and ZOOMIES button are hidden. velocity is zeroed out. The camera jumps to a position 14 units to Rudi’s side and looks at him.
2

Close-Up Pan (0 → 1.2 s)

The camera smoothly lerps to a position slightly closer to Rudi — (rudiPos.x + 12, 6.2, rudiPos.z + 12) — while continuing to look at him. A soft triangle beep plays at 440 Hz.
3

Rudi Turns (1.2 → 2.2 s)

Rudi rotates to face the camera using a smooth lerp on rotation.y. The camera continues looking at him.
4

Launch (2.2 s → 4.7 s)

Rudi launches away: position.y increases at 18 units/s, position.x at 24 units/s, and position.z decreases at 30 units/s. The camera tracks him by looking at his position each frame.
5

End Screen (flyAwayTimer > 4.7 s)

showEnding("🐶 Oh no! Rudi got bored!", currentLevel >= MAX_LEVELS) is called. The #endText overlay becomes visible displaying the message. If the player has completed all 20 levels (completedGame = true), the final run time is recorded and the name-entry leaderboard prompt (#nameEntryPanel) appears.
The ”🐶 Oh no! Rudi got bored!” message always fires alongside completedGame = true because triggerFlyAwayEnding() is only ever called when currentLevel >= MAX_LEVELS. This means the leaderboard name-entry prompt always appears at the end of a fly-away sequence.

​
End Screen

When either ending concludes, the #endText overlay is shown (display: flex) with the ending message inside #endingMessage and a Go Back button (#goBackButton).
ElementIDContent / Behavior

​
Game Reset

resetGameToMenu() performs a complete state wipe. Every value is returned to its initial condition:
  • score, boost, speedStacks, speedMultiplier, sizeMultiplier → reset to defaults
  • zoomLocked, rudySpinMode, rudyDanceMode, cloneFlyAwayTriggered → false
  • flyAwayEnding, flyAwayTimer, meteorEnding, meteorTimer, meteorExploded, explosionFlash → cleared
  • All debris objects removed from the scene
  • All clones removed from the scene
  • powerAnim → null, currentPowerForm → "normal"
  • Rudi repositioned to the origin, rotation zeroed, scale reset to (1.08, 1.38, 1.08)
  • Camera reset to (0, 14, 19) looking at (0, 1.6, 0), cameraYaw = 0, cameraPitch = 0.35
  • The #endText overlay is hidden; the #titleScreen is shown
  • Music is stopped via stopMusic()
  • gameStarted is set to false
