scenes

# Scenes > Scenes are the organizational backbone of a Phaser game. Each Scene has its own lifecycle (init, preload, create, update), its own set of injected systems (this.add, this.input, this.cameras, etc.), and can be started, stopped, paused, slept, or run in parallel with other Scenes. The ScenePlugin (`this.scene`) controls all multi-scene orchestration. **Key source paths:** `src/scene/Scene.js`, `src/scene/Systems.js`, `src/scene/SceneManager.js`, `src/scene/ScenePlugin.js`, `src/scene/Settings.js`, `src/scene/const.js`, `src/scene/events/`, `src/scene/InjectionMap.js` **Related skills:** ../game-setup-and-config/SKILL.md, ../loading-assets/SKILL.md, ../events-system/SKILL.md ## Quick Start ```js // Minimal scene with all lifecycle methods class GameScene extends Phaser.Scene { constructor() { super('GameScene'); } init(data) { // Called first. Receives data passed from other scenes. // 'data' is whatever was passed via scene.start('GameScene', { level: 1 }) this.level = data.level || 1; } preload() { // Called after init. Load assets here. this.load.image('logo', 'assets/logo.png'); } create(data) { // Called after preload completes. Set up game objects. // 'data' is the same object passed to init. this.add.image(400, 300, 'logo'); } update(time, delta) { // Called every frame while scene is RUNNING. // time: current time (ms), delta: ms...
