(private) inGame

Are we currently loaded into a game? Set to true when module:gameinterface/GameInterface calls its _endedGame function (i.e., the microgame calls WinGame or LoseGame).
Source:

masterVolume

Bit of a misnomer, unfortunately. It’s just used to keep track of what the volume should be when modified by the settings and to update the audio manager appropriately when that happens.

To Do:
  • I should probably just move this to a static variable in gamesound.js. Oh well.
