Key Code property type
```````````````````````

This type of property allows selecting one of the key codes available in the ``Phaser.Input.Keyboard.KeyCodes`` class:

  :alt: KeyCode property.
  
.. image:: ../images/prefab-user-props-keycode-2-20230627.webp
  :alt: KeyCode dialog.

You can use properties of this type for binding the behavior of an object or a game action with a certain keyboard key.

  		private jumpKey: number = Phaser.Input.Keyboard.KeyCodes.UP;
	}
