Phaser 4 Core

Set up the foundation of a Phaser game: the Game config, the Scene
lifecycle, asset loading, cameras, and passing data between scenes. Targets
Phaser 4.2 for new projects; keep an existing Phaser 3.90 project on its
pinned major unless the user explicitly asks for a migration.

When to use

Use when starting a Phaser game, wiring the Phaser.Game config, structuring
Scenes, loading assets in preload, or fixing scene transitions and shared
state.

Use when the project has phaser in package.json or import Phaser from 'phaser',
and code uses preload()/create()/update().

When not to use: movement, velocity, colliders, gravity, or overlap → use
phaser-arcade-physics. Complex rigid-body simulation uses Matter physics (a
separate concern). For cross-engine save/load patterns use save-systems.
