I get the following error when I try to run npm i @geckos.io/phaser-on-nodejs:

npm ERR! Package pangocairo was not found in the pkg-config search path.
npm ERR! Perhaps you should add the directory containing `pangocairo.pc'

It appears to be an issue with installing canvas. Might have something to do with the fact that I'm using an M1 mac

Yes it looks like that: https://github.com/Automattic/node-canvas#compiling

Maybe try this package instead: https://github.com/yandeu/arcade-physics

Cool I was able to get arcade-physics working (in case you're curious: https://github.com/hpx7/hathora-phaser-demo)

Nice! And arcade-physics is also much faster than phaser-on-nodejs.
