Passive pixel art mascot battle game for fundraiser team profile pages with real-time sales-driven gameplay

Fundraiser Battle Arena — Integration Guide

Overview

The Battle Arena is a passive, sale-driven pixel art mascot battle game embedded on each fundraiser team's profile page at:

https://josemadrid.net/fundraise/[team-slug]

Every sale on a team's page triggers an attack. Sharing the page on Facebook activates a 30-minute shield. No manual gameplay exists — the game reflects real fundraising activity in real time.

Step 1 — Embed the component in a fundraiser profile page

Your fundraiser profile page lives at: app/fundraise/[slug]/page.tsx

The page is a Server Component. BattleArena is a Client Component ("use client"). Pass data from your DB as props:

// app/fundraise/[slug]/page.tsx  (Server Component — no changes needed here)

import BattleArena from "@/components/fundraiser/BattleArena";
import FundraiserBattleWrapper from "@/components/fundraiser/FundraiserBattleWrapper";

export default async function FundraiserProfilePage({ params }) {
  const team = await db.fundraiserTeam.findUnique({
    where: { slug: params.slug, status: "ACTIVE" },
  });
  if (!team) notFound();

  const oppTeam = await db.fundraiserTeam.findFirst({
    where: {
      status: "ACTIVE",
      id: { not: team.id },
      activePeriod: { equals: team.activePeriod },
    },
    orderBy: { salesCount: "desc" },
  });

  const shield = await db.fundraiserShield.findFirst({
    where: { teamId: team.id, expiresAt: { gt: new Date() } },
    orderBy: { expiresAt: "desc" },
  });

  return (
    <main>
      {/* ... rest of your page ... */}
      <FundraiserBattleWrapper
        shieldExpiresAt={shield?.expiresAt?.toISOString() ?? null}
        shieldHPRemaining={shield?.remainingHP ?? 0}
        myTeamId={team.id}
        oppTeamId={oppTeam?.id ?? null}
      />
    </main>
  );
}

Step 2 — Create the BattleWrapper client component

This wrapper handles polling for new sale events and passing them as props:

// components/fundraiser/FundraiserBattleWrapper.tsx
"use client";

import { useState, useEffect } from "react";
import BattleArena from "./BattleArena";

interface Props {
  myTeamId: string;
  oppTeamId: string | null;
  shieldExpiresAt: string | null;
  shieldHPRemaining: number;
}

export default function FundraiserBattleWrapper({
  myTeamId, oppTeamId, shieldExpiresAt, shieldHPRemaining,
}: Props) {
  const [mySale,    setMySale]    = useState(0);
  const [oppSale,   setOppSale]   = useState(0);
  const [sharedAt,  setSharedAt]  = useState(false);
  const [shieldExp, setShieldExp] = useState(shieldExpiresAt);
  const [shieldHP,  setShieldHP]  = useState(shieldHPRemaining);

  // Poll for new sale events every 10 seconds
  useEffect(() => {
    const poll = async () => {
      const res = await fetch(`/api/fundraiser/battle-state?myTeam=${myTeamId}&oppTeam=${oppTeamId??""}`);
      const data = await res.json();

      if (data.latestMySaleDollars)  setMySale(data.latestMySaleDollars + Math.random() * 0.0001);
      if (data.latestOppSaleDollars) setOppSale(data.latestOppSaleDollars + Math.random() * 0.0001);
      if (data.shieldExpiresAt)      setShieldExp(data.shieldExpiresAt);
      if (data.shieldHPRemaining !== undefined) setShieldHP(data.shieldHPRemaining);
    };

    poll();
    const id = setInterval(poll, 10_000);
    return () => clearInterval(id);
  }, [myTeamId, oppTeamId]);

  return (
    <BattleArena
      incomingSaleDollars={mySale}
      opponentSaleDollars={oppSale}
      shareConfirmed={sharedAt}
      shieldExpiresAt={shieldExp}
      shieldHPRemaining={shieldHP}
    />
  );
}

Step 3 — Create the battle-state API route

// app/api/fundraiser/battle-state/route.ts
import { NextRequest, NextResponse } from "next/server";
import { db } from "@/lib/db";

export async function GET(req: NextRequest) {
  const myTeamId  = req.nextUrl.searchParams.get("myTeam");
  const oppTeamId = req.nextUrl.searchParams.get("oppTeam");
  if (!myTeamId) return NextResponse.json({ error: "myTeam required" }, { status: 400 });

  // Latest sale on MY team's page (last 30 seconds to avoid replaying old events)
  const mySale = await db.fundraiserSaleEvent.findFirst({
    where: { teamId: myTeamId, createdAt: { gt: new Date(Date.now() - 30_000) } },
    orderBy: { createdAt: "desc" },
  });

  const oppSale = oppTeamId ? await db.fundraiserSaleEvent.findFirst({
    where: { teamId: oppTeamId, createdAt: { gt: new Date(Date.now() - 30_000) } },
    orderBy: { createdAt: "desc" },
  }) : null;

  const shield = await db.fundraiserShield.findFirst({
    where: { teamId: myTeamId, expiresAt: { gt: new Date() } },
    orderBy: { expiresAt: "desc" },
  });

  return NextResponse.json({
    latestMySaleDollars:  mySale?.amount  ?? 0,
    latestOppSaleDollars: oppSale?.amount ?? 0,
    shieldExpiresAt:      shield?.expiresAt?.toISOString() ?? null,
    shieldHPRemaining:    shield?.remainingHP ?? 0,
  });
}

Step 4 — Update CONFIG in BattleArena.tsx for each team

For each new team you onboard, create a copy of BattleArena.tsx OR — better — make CONFIG a prop:

// Option A: One component per team (simplest)
// Duplicate BattleArena.tsx → BattleArena_WestM.tsx, change CONFIG block.

// Option B: Pass CONFIG as a prop (recommended for many teams)
// Change the component signature to accept a config prop and
// remove the hardcoded CONFIG const.

The CONFIG fields to update per team:

Field	What to change
myTeam.name	Team display name
myTeam.school	School name
myTeam.color	Hex color matching team colors
myTeam.mascot	Key matching MASCOT_SPRITES
myTeam.goal	Fundraising goal in dollars
myTeam.shareUrl	Full URL to this team's fundraiser page
myTeam.quips	Array of battle cry strings (4–8 items)
oppTeam.*	Same fields for the opposing team
startingHP	HP per round (default 1000)
shieldDurationMinutes	Minutes per Facebook share (default 30)
shieldHP	Max damage shield absorbs (default 30)

Step 5 — Add a new mascot sprite

Open components/fundraiser/BattleArena.tsx
Add your function above the MASCOT_SPRITES object:

function EagleSprite({ color, state, tick, shielded, flipped, scale = 1 }: SpriteProps) {
  // Build your SVG pixel art here
  // state values: "idle" | "attack" | "hit" | "dead"
  // Use tick for bob/animation: Math.sin(tick * 0.7) * 3
  return <svg>...</svg>;
}

const MASCOT_SPRITES = {
  tornado: (p) => <TornadoSprite {...p}/>,
  scottie: (p) => <ScottieSprite {...p}/>,
  eagle:   (p) => <EagleSprite {...p}/>,   // ← new
};

Set mascot: "eagle" in your team's CONFIG block.

Step 6 — Shield DB schema addition

Add remainingHP to your FundraiserShield model:

model FundraiserShield {
  id          String   @id @default(cuid())
  teamId      String
  team        FundraiserTeam @relation(fields: [teamId], references: [id], onDelete: Cascade)
  activatedAt DateTime @default(now())
  expiresAt   DateTime
  remainingHP Int      @default(30)   // ← add this field

  @@index([teamId, expiresAt])
}

Run: npx prisma migrate dev --name add_shield_remaining_hp

Update the shield route to decrement remainingHP on each opponent sale:

// In app/api/fundraiser/sale/route.ts — after processing an opp sale
// find the active shield for the team that was attacked and decrement
const activeShield = await db.fundraiserShield.findFirst({
  where: { teamId: attackedTeamId, expiresAt: { gt: new Date() }, remainingHP: { gt: 0 } },
});
if (activeShield) {
  const absorb = Math.min(activeShield.remainingHP, saleDollars);
  await db.fundraiserShield.update({
    where: { id: activeShield.id },
    data: { remainingHP: { decrement: absorb } },
  });
}

Game Mechanics Reference

Event	Result
$45 sale on MY page	MY mascot attacks for 45 damage
$100 sale on OPP page	OPP mascot attacks for 100 damage
Shield active, OPP $100 sale	Shield absorbs up to $30, remaining 70 hits HP
Shield active, OPP $20 sale	Shield absorbs all 20, mascot HP unchanged
Shield at 0 HP remaining	Shield inactive, full damage hits mascot HP
Facebook share (no shield)	30-min shield activates, absorbs up to $30
Facebook share (shielded)	No effect
Mascot HP reaches 0	Round ends, both HP reset, round counter increments

Removing the Demo Controls

The component has no demo controls in this version. All events are driven by props from your wrapper component.
