Play sound during loader?

[Thomer Gil]

I'd like to play a sound while the loader loads. Can I pre-load one sound, then play() it, then load the rest? My first attempts failed.

Thank you.

Kamran responded to me privately suggesting a good idea which I implemented. It doesn't exactly win the beauty prize (because you see two progress bars; one fast, one slow), but it works!

function startGame(urlParams: URLSearchParams): void {
    Game.Instance(urlParams)
        .start(preLoader)
        .then(() => {
            Game.Instance().playIntroSong();
            Game.Instance(urlParams).start(loader);
        });
}

preLoader loads only the song; loader loads the rest of the assets.

Hah! Oops, but glad that works. You can customize the draw of the loader(s) as well if you want to do that at some point. I believe we have some docs covering that:
