Guides / Manual

The guides are task-oriented documentation for people making games with Sendama.

Use this section when you want to know:

• how to open and use the editor
• how scenes, prefabs, textures, and tile maps fit together
• how to wire gameplay logic into objects
• how to test, debug, and organize a project

Recommended Reading Order

What The Editor Is Best At Today

The editor is strongest at content authoring:

• editing scenes and hierarchy data
• working with prefabs
• placing objects visually
• editing renderer, transform, and serialized component values
• creating textures and tile maps directly in the terminal
• inspecting logs while you iterate

The runtime game loop still matters for final validation, so most teams use both:

• sendama edit for authoring
• sendama play for real play sessions
