Welcome to the Sword of Moonlight Compendium Project!

Welcome to the Sword of Moonlight Compendium, your one stop shop for 'Sword of Moonlight: The King's Field Making Tool' documentation!

If you've found yourself here because you're looking to play a game that was made with SoM, we've got you covered here, if you're instead here because you want to try your hand at making a game with SoM yourself - read on!

Legacy Documentation

While no longer updated, the legacy documentation is still more complete than this new effort - and so it is avaliable here.

Seek Guidance

Thanks to our chosen documentation generator MkDocs, we have the ability to offer you a search function to use if you're looking for something specific. Familiarize yourself with the large 'Search' box (or magnifying glass) at the top right of the screen.

If you've searched and still can't find the answers to your questions, you can reach out to other community members through our Forum or the Sword of Moonlight Discord Server.

Scan your eyes to the left of the search bar, and you'll be presented with a switch for toggling between light mode and dark mode.
