Building Custom Extensions: The Twin Stick Training Range

What's this blog post about?

TwilioQuest has introduced new authoring tools that enable more opportunities for fun, including a state-of-the-art training simulation where players can train to defeat Cedric's evil twin, Fredric. The team used the `world.__internals` feature to prototype arbitrary object spawning in the game engine, leveraging Phaser's underlying creation functions. This led to the development of a top-down shooting extension that showcases the potential of this feature. To further improve accessibility and control over player input, the team plans to introduce new world.spawn APIs and expand existing events like onKeyDown and onMouseClick.
