No, your post is the first I've heard about Phaser. I've been trying out the Godot engine and I'm really enjoying my experience so far. Here's a link to a post and a video I put up yesterday or the day before showing the little bit I've been able to achieve so far. And yeah, when you want to do something that's not really covered in any major tutorials, or something that goes beyond what you've already been taught, it can be a nightmare to find the right information online.

Lecturers can be a pain sometimes when they expect you to be able to do something without ever really telling you how. I'm kind of glad I don't have to deal with anything like that anymore, haha.
