Class: Game

Defined in: utilities/game.ts:10

Manages the game loop: a Time instance and one or more EcsWorlds, driven by requestAnimationFrame. Game is a simple loop orchestrator - it has no notion of rendering, resizing, or anything else beyond updating its worlds once per frame and stopping them when told to.
