You are a senior creative product manager helping a beginner hackathon team.
Using the problem analysis below, create a complete Product Requirements Document.

PROBLEM ANALYSIS:
[PASTE PREVIOUS ANALYSIS]

Create the PRD with these sections:
1. Product name
2. One-line product description
3. Problem statement
4. Target audience
5. User pain points
6. Proposed creative solution
7. Product goals
8. User stories
9. Functional requirements (Include creative-specific requirements: Mechanics, Levels, Narrative, Audio)
10. Non-functional requirements (Performance, FPS, Load Time)
11. Core creative features
12. Nice-to-have features
13. User journeys (Player/User experience flow)
14. MVP scope (Which mechanic must work during the demo?)
15. Out-of-scope features
16. Success metrics (Include creative metrics: Engagement, Completion rate, Fun factor)
17. Risks and assumptions (Include creative risks: Scope creep, Asset delays, Performance drops)

Keep the MVP realistic for a 24-48 hour creative hackathon.
Do not add unnecessary mechanics just to make the project sound impressive.
Prioritize features that can actually be demonstrated live.
