Neon Checkers

Build a tiny browser game called "Neon Checkers".

Game spec
---------
A full eight-by-eight checkers match against a CPU. You are the twelve cyan pieces on the bottom rows, the CPU the twelve magenta on top. Click or tap a piece to select it — its legal destinations glow (gold dots for plain slides, red X-rings for jumps) — then click a glowing dot to move. Jumps are mandatory when available, a jump that lands on a square with another jumpable opponent continues the chain, and crowning on the far row makes a piece a king that moves and captures both ways. The CPU replies after a short pause with a minimax search: one ply on easy, three on medium, five on hard. Capturing all twelve (or leaving the CPU with no move) wins 500 points; the CPU getting all yours loses. Score climbs 10 per capture, shown in the side panel with piece counts and a rematch screen. Deep-violet night look: a glowing purple board frame, dark checkered squares, glossy layered pieces with gold crown stars, and a pulsing turn indicator.

Hard constraints — the game will be embedded in a sandboxed iframe on a static gallery site, and a headless browser will screenshot it:

1. Output exactly ONE self-contained HTML file. All CSS and JS inline. Zero external requests: no CDNs, no external fonts, images, or sounds, no fetch/XHR/WebSocket. Any sound must be synthesized with WebAudio.
2. The iframe sandbox is "allow-scripts allow-pointer-lock" (plus an autoplay permission). So: no localStorage, cookies, or indexedDB (opaque origin — access throws); no popups, window.open, or navigation; no access to the parent page; alert()/prompt()/confirm() are silently blocked.
3. The playfield must be visible within 800 ms of load — that is when the screenshot is taken. No dead white screen. If there is a start screen, make it visually rich.
4. Controls: keyboard AND mouse must both work, plus on-screen touch buttons for phones. Call preventDefault() on game keys (arrows, space) so the page never scrolls.
5. The view is 16:9 and must scale to fill the viewport with no overflow or scrollbars.
6. Show a visible score. If the genre has a losing state, show a game-over screen with a restart (button and a key). Idle/clicker games skip game over but still need clear numeric feedback.
7. If you track a score, report it to the arcade shell so the player's best is remembered between visits: on every score change, call parent.postMessage({ source: "ai-arcade", type: "score", score: <number> }, "*"). It is safe to call it no matter what the parent does with it.
8. Keep it tiny: aim for under 400 lines, 60 fps, no frameworks. That 400-line target does not apply to 3D games — true 3D (a camera and perspective-projected world) or pseudo-3D (projected road/track, depth-sorted sprites) — which need their own software renderer and typically land at 800–1400 lines. The rest of this constraint still binds every game: 60 fps, no frameworks, no external assets, and no padding to reach a length.
9. Difficulty: the arcade shell passes the player's chosen difficulty as a URL query parameter. Read it with new URLSearchParams(location.search).get("difficulty") — the value is "easy", "medium", or "hard" (missing or unknown means "medium"). Make the three levels meaningfully different — speed, lives, enemy pressure, reaction time, whatever fits the genre; clicker/idle games with no losing state use starting resources and upgrade cost curves instead. Show the active level in the HUD. Without the parameter the game must be fully playable at its default (medium) tuning.
