Crowd (8 directions)

Press the arrow keys to move. This demo demonstrates movement and collision with other characters in 8 directions. It further demonstrates the efficiency of the plugin.

Example Code

const game = new Phaser.Game(config(preload, create, update));

function preload() {
  this.load.image("tiles", "../../assets/cloud_tileset.png");
  this.load.tilemapTiledJSON("cloud-city-map", "../../assets/cloud_city_large.json");
