Since you ask me directly, I assume you are refering to my [phaser react example](https://phaser.discourse.group/t/use-react-inside-of-phaser-3-with-typescript-example/1360).

This is not how I would recommend getting and setting the react state. I would pass the phaser scene to the react component and access the state via event emitter.
