description	Provides battle-tested patterns, best practices, and code examples for building Phaser 3 games. Use when writing game code, implementing game mechanics, setting up scenes, handling physics, animations, input, or any Phaser-related development. Covers architecture, performance, algorithms, and common pitfalls.

Phaser 3 Game Development

Quick Start

const config = {
    scene: [Boot, Preloader, MainMenu, Game, GameOver]
};

create() {
    this.projectiles = this.physics.add.group({
        classType: Projectile,
        frameQuantity: 20,
        active: false,
        visible: false
    });
}

fire() {
    const projectile = this.projectiles.getFirstDead(false);
    if (projectile) projectile.fire(x, y);
}

Create global animations once in the preloader, use Phaser.Input.Keyboard.JustDown for edge-triggered input, and pool frequently created game objects.
