Phaser: Sprites

Apr 22, 2021

This post is part of a Phaser series. Click here to see the first post of the series.

We saw how to add images using:

function preload() {
  this.load.image('apple', 'apple.png')
}

function create() {
  this.add.image(200, 200, 'apple')
}

Another key GameObject in Phaser is sprites.

function preload() {
  this.load.sprite('dog', 'dog.png')
}

function create() {
  this.add.sprite(400, 200, 'dog')
}

Sprites and images look similar, except for a very big difference: sprites can be animated.
