Phaser Class: Game

new Game(width, height, renderer, parent, state, transparent, antialias, physicsConfig)

This is where the magic happens. The Game object is the heart of your game, providing quick access to common functions and handling the boot process. "Hell, there are no rules here - we're trying to accomplish something." Thomas A. Edison
