Phaser Game Development

Build fast, polished 2D browser games using Phaser 3's scene-based architecture and physics systems.

Philosophy: Games as Living Systems

Games are not static UIs—they are dynamic systems where entities interact, state evolves, and player input drives everything. Before writing code, think architecturally.

Before building, ask:

• What scenes does this game need? (Boot, Menu, Game, Pause, GameOver)
• What entities exist and how do they interact?
• What state must persist across scenes?
• What physics model fits? (Arcade for speed, Matter for realism)
• What input methods will players use?

Core principles:

1. Scene-First Architecture: Structure games around scenes, not global state
2. Composition Over Inheritance: Build entities from game objects and components
3. Physics-Aware Design: Choose physics system before coding collisions
4. Asset Pipeline Discipline: Preload everything, reference by key
5. Frame-Rate Independence: Use delta time, not frame counting

Game Configuration

Every Phaser game starts with a configuration object.

Minimal Configuration

const config = {
  type: Phaser.AUTO,           // WebGL with Canvas fallback
  width: 800,
  height: 600,
  scene: [BootScene, GameScene]
};

const game = new Phaser.Game(config);

Full Configuration Pattern

const config = {
  type: Phaser.AUTO,
  width: 800,
  height: 600,
  parent: 'game-container',    // DOM element ID
  backgroundColor: '#2d2d2d',

  scale: {
    mode: Phaser.Scale.FIT,
    autoCenter: Phaser.Scale.CENTER_BOTH
  },

  physics: {
    default: 'arcade',
    arcade: {
      gravity: { y: 300 },
      debug: false              // Enable during development
    }
  },

  scene: [BootScene, MenuScene, GameScene, GameOverScene]
};

Physics System Choice

Scene Architecture

Scenes are the fundamental organizational unit. Each scene has a lifecycle.

Scene Lifecycle Methods

class GameScene extends Phaser.Scene {
  constructor() {
    super('GameScene');        // Scene key for reference
  }

  init(data) {
    // Called first. Receive data from previous scene
    this.level = data.level || 1;
  }

  preload() {
    // Load assets. Runs before create()
    this.load.image('player', 'assets/player.png');
    this.load.spritesheet('enemy', 'assets/enemy.png', {
      frameWidth: 32, frameHeight: 32
    });
  }

  create() {
    // Set up game objects, physics, input
    this.player = this.physics.add.sprite(100, 100, 'player');
    this.cursors = this.input.keyboard.createCursorKeys();
  }

  update(time, delta) {
    // Game loop. Called every frame
    // delta = milliseconds since last frame
    this.player.x += this.speed * (delta / 1000);
  }
}

Scene Transitions

// Start a new scene (stops current)
this.scene.start('GameOverScene', { score: this.score });

// Launch scene in parallel (both run)
this.scene.launch('UIScene');

// Pause/resume scenes
this.scene.pause('GameScene');
this.scene.resume('GameScene');

// Stop a scene
this.scene.stop('UIScene');

Recommended Scene Structure

scenes/
├── BootScene.js      # Asset loading, progress bar
├── MenuScene.js      # Title screen, options
├── GameScene.js      # Main gameplay
├── UIScene.js        # HUD overlay (launched parallel)
├── PauseScene.js     # Pause menu overlay
└── GameOverScene.js  # End screen, restart option

Game Objects

Everything visible in Phaser is a Game Object.

Common Game Objects

// Images (static)
this.add.image(400, 300, 'background');

// Sprites (can animate, physics-enabled)
const player = this.add.sprite(100, 100, 'player');

// Text
const score = this.add.text(16, 16, 'Score: 0', {
  fontSize: '32px',
  fill: '#fff'
});

// Graphics (draw shapes)
const graphics = this.add.graphics();
graphics.fillStyle(0xff0000);
graphics.fillRect(100, 100, 50, 50);

// Containers (group objects)
const container = this.add.container(400, 300, [sprite1, sprite2]);

// Tilemaps
const map = this.make.tilemap({ key: 'level1' });

Sprite Creation Patterns

// Basic sprite
const sprite = this.add.sprite(x, y, 'textureKey');

// Sprite with physics body
const sprite = this.physics.add.sprite(x, y, 'textureKey');

// From spritesheet frame
const sprite = this.add.sprite(x, y, 'sheet', frameIndex);

// From atlas
const sprite = this.add.sprite(x, y, 'atlas', 'frameName');

Physics Systems

Arcade Physics (Recommended Default)

Fast, simple physics for most 2D games.

// Enable physics on sprite
this.physics.add.sprite(x, y, 'player');

// Or add physics to existing sprite
this.physics.add.existing(sprite);

// Configure body
sprite.body.setVelocity(200, 0);
sprite.body.setBounce(0.5);
sprite.body.setCollideWorldBounds(true);
sprite.body.setGravityY(300);

// Collision detection
this.physics.add.collider(player, platforms);
this.physics.add.overlap(player, coins, collectCoin, null, this);

function collectCoin(player, coin) {
  coin.disableBody(true, true);  // Remove from physics and hide
  this.score += 10;
}

Physics Groups

// Static group (platforms, walls)
const platforms = this.physics.add.staticGroup();
platforms.create(400, 568, 'ground').setScale(2).refreshBody();

// Dynamic group (enemies, bullets)
const enemies = this.physics.add.group({
  key: 'enemy',
  repeat: 5,
  setXY: { x: 100, y: 0, stepX: 70 }
});

enemies.children.iterate(enemy => {
  enemy.setBounce(Phaser.Math.FloatBetween(0.4, 0.8));
});

Matter Physics

For realistic physics simulations.

// Config
physics: {
  default: 'matter',
  matter: {
    gravity: { y: 1 },
    debug: true
  }
}

// Create bodies
const ball = this.matter.add.circle(400, 100, 25);
const box = this.matter.add.rectangle(400, 400, 100, 50, { isStatic: true });

// Sprite with Matter body
const player = this.matter.add.sprite(100, 100, 'player');
player.setFriction(0.005);
player.setBounce(0.9);

Input Handling

Keyboard Input

// Cursor keys
this.cursors = this.input.keyboard.createCursorKeys();

// In update()
if (this.cursors.left.isDown) {
  player.setVelocityX(-160);
} else if (this.cursors.right.isDown) {
  player.setVelocityX(160);
}

if (this.cursors.up.isDown && player.body.touching.down) {
  player.setVelocityY(-330);  // Jump
}

// Custom keys
this.spaceKey = this.input.keyboard.addKey(Phaser.Input.Keyboard.KeyCodes.SPACE);

// Key events
this.input.keyboard.on('keydown-SPACE', () => {
  this.fire();
});

Pointer/Mouse Input

// Click/tap
this.input.on('pointerdown', (pointer) => {
  console.log(pointer.x, pointer.y);
});

// Make object interactive
sprite.setInteractive();
sprite.on('pointerdown', () => {
  sprite.setTint(0xff0000);
});
sprite.on('pointerup', () => {
  sprite.clearTint();
});

// Drag
this.input.setDraggable(sprite);
this.input.on('drag', (pointer, obj, dragX, dragY) => {
  obj.x = dragX;
  obj.y = dragY;
});

Animations

Creating Animations

// In create() - define once
this.anims.create({
  key: 'walk',
  frames: this.anims.generateFrameNumbers('player', { start: 0, end: 3 }),
  frameRate: 10,
  repeat: -1  // Loop forever
});

this.anims.create({
  key: 'jump',
  frames: [{ key: 'player', frame: 4 }],
  frameRate: 20
});

// From atlas
this.anims.create({
  key: 'explode',
  frames: this.anims.generateFrameNames('atlas', {
    prefix: 'explosion_',
    start: 1,
    end: 8,
    zeroPad: 2
  }),
  frameRate: 16,
  hideOnComplete: true
});

Playing Animations

// Play animation
sprite.anims.play('walk', true);  // true = ignore if already playing

// Play once
sprite.anims.play('jump');

// Stop
sprite.anims.stop();

// Animation events
sprite.on('animationcomplete', (anim, frame) => {
  if (anim.key === 'die') {
    sprite.destroy();
  }
});

Asset Loading

Preload Patterns

preload() {
  // Images
  this.load.image('sky', 'assets/sky.png');

  // Spritesheets
  this.load.spritesheet('player', 'assets/player.png', {
    frameWidth: 32,
    frameHeight: 48
  });

  // Atlases (TexturePacker)
  this.load.atlas('sprites', 'assets/sprites.png', 'assets/sprites.json');

  // Tilemaps
  this.load.tilemapTiledJSON('map', 'assets/level1.json');
  this.load.image('tiles', 'assets/tileset.png');

  // Audio
  this.load.audio('bgm', 'assets/music.mp3');
  this.load.audio('sfx', ['assets/sound.ogg', 'assets/sound.mp3']);

  // Progress tracking
  this.load.on('progress', (value) => {
    console.log(`Loading: ${Math.round(value * 100)}%`);
  });
}

Boot Scene Pattern

class BootScene extends Phaser.Scene {
  constructor() {
    super('BootScene');
  }

  preload() {
    // Loading bar
    const width = this.cameras.main.width;
    const height = this.cameras.main.height;

    const progressBar = this.add.graphics();
    const progressBox = this.add.graphics();
    progressBox.fillStyle(0x222222, 0.8);
    progressBox.fillRect(width/2 - 160, height/2 - 25, 320, 50);

    this.load.on('progress', (value) => {
      progressBar.clear();
      progressBar.fillStyle(0xffffff, 1);
      progressBar.fillRect(width/2 - 150, height/2 - 15, 300 * value, 30);
    });

    // Load all game assets here
    this.load.image('player', 'assets/player.png');
    // ... more assets
  }

  create() {
    this.scene.start('MenuScene');
  }
}

Tilemaps (Tiled Integration)

Loading and Creating

preload() {
  this.load.tilemapTiledJSON('map', 'assets/map.json');
  this.load.image('tiles', 'assets/tileset.png');
}

create() {
  const map = this.make.tilemap({ key: 'map' });
  const tileset = map.addTilesetImage('tileset-name-in-tiled', 'tiles');

  // Create layers (match names from Tiled)
  const backgroundLayer = map.createLayer('Background', tileset, 0, 0);
  const groundLayer = map.createLayer('Ground', tileset, 0, 0);

  // Enable collision on specific tiles
  groundLayer.setCollisionByProperty({ collides: true });
  // Or by tile index
  groundLayer.setCollisionBetween(1, 100);

  // Add collision with player
  this.physics.add.collider(this.player, groundLayer);
}

Object Layers

// Spawn points from Tiled object layer
const spawnPoint = map.findObject('Objects', obj => obj.name === 'spawn');
this.player = this.physics.add.sprite(spawnPoint.x, spawnPoint.y, 'player');

// Create objects from layer
const coins = map.createFromObjects('Objects', {
  name: 'coin',
  key: 'coin'
});
this.physics.world.enable(coins);

ES Module Setup

// main.js
import Phaser from 'phaser';
import BootScene from './scenes/BootScene';
import GameScene from './scenes/GameScene';
import { gameConfig } from './config/gameConfig';

const config = {
  ...gameConfig,
  scene: [BootScene, GameScene]
};

new Phaser.Game(config);

Anti-Patterns to Avoid

❌ Global State Soup: Storing game state on window or module globals Why bad: Untrackable bugs, scene transitions break state Better: Use scene data, registries, or dedicated state managers

❌ Loading in Create: Loading assets in create() instead of preload() Why bad: Assets may not be ready when referenced Better: Always load in preload(), use Boot scene for all assets

❌ Frame-Dependent Logic: Using frame count instead of delta time Why bad: Game speed varies with frame rate Better: this.speed * (delta / 1000) for consistent movement

❌ Physics Overkill: Using Matter for simple platformer collisions Why bad: Performance hit, unnecessary complexity Better: Arcade physics handles 90% of 2D game needs

❌ Monolithic Scenes: One giant scene with all game logic Why bad: Unmaintainable, hard to add features Better: Separate scenes for menus, gameplay, UI overlays

❌ Magic Numbers: Hardcoded values scattered in code Why bad: Impossible to balance, inconsistent Better: Config objects, constants files

❌ Ignoring Object Pooling: Creating/destroying objects every frame Why bad: Memory churn, garbage collection stutters Better: Use groups with setActive(false) / setVisible(false)

❌ Synchronous Asset Access: Assuming assets load instantly Why bad: Race conditions, undefined textures Better: Chain scene starts, use load events

❌ Assuming Spritesheet Frame Dimensions: Using guessed frame sizes without verifying Why bad: Wrong dimensions cause silent frame corruption; off-by-pixels compounds into broken visuals Better: Open asset file, measure frames, calculate with spacing/margin, verify math adds up

❌ Ignoring Spritesheet Spacing: Not specifying spacing for gapped spritesheets Why bad: Frames shift progressively; later frames read wrong pixel regions Better: Check source asset for gaps between frames; use spacing: N in loader config

❌ Hardcoding Nine-Slice Colors: Using single background color for all UI panel variants Why bad: Transparent frame edges reveal wrong color for different asset color schemes Better: Per-asset background color config; sample from center frame (frame 4)

❌ Nine-Slice with Padded Frames: Treating the full frame as the slice region when the art is centered/padded inside each tile Why bad: Edge tiles contribute interior fill, showing up as opaque “side bars” inside the panel Better: Trim tiles to their effective content bounds (alpha bbox) and composite/cache a texture; add ~1px overlap + disable smoothing to avoid seams

❌ Scaling Discontinuous UI Art: Stretching a cropped ribbon/banner row that contains internal transparent gaps Why bad: The transparent gutters get stretched, so the UI looks segmented or the fill disappears behind the frame. Better: Slice the asset into caps/center, stretch only the center, and stitch the pieces (with ~1px overlap + smoothing disabled) before rendering at pivot sizes.

Variation Guidance

IMPORTANT: Game implementations should vary based on:

• Game Genre: Platformer physics differ from top-down shooter physics
• Target Platform: Mobile needs touch input, desktop can use keyboard
• Art Style: Pixel art uses nearest-neighbor scaling, HD art uses linear
• Performance Needs: Many sprites → object pooling; few sprites → simple creation
• Complexity: Simple games can inline; complex games need class hierarchies

Avoid converging on:

• Always using 800x600 resolution
• Always using Arcade physics
• Always using the same scene structure
• Copy-pasting boilerplate without adaptation

Remember

Phaser gives you powerful primitives—scenes, sprites, physics, input—but architecture is your responsibility.

Think in systems: What scenes do you need? What entities exist? How do they interact? Answer these questions before writing code, and your game will be maintainable as it grows.
