Ichiloto documentation is split into two lanes so you can move at the right level of detail.

  • The Manual & Guide explains the workflow for creating a project, shaping a world, authoring events, and iterating from the terminal.
  • The Scripting API documents the engine surface you will touch once you begin extending the runtime, composing scenes, or driving systems directly in PHP.

Use the guide when you are still deciding how to build something. Use the API when you already know what you want to build and need the exact classes, concepts, and responsibilities involved. Release articles and announcements live on the Ichiloto Blog.

If you are new to Ichiloto, start with Getting Started and keep the Manual & Guide close as the project grows. Move into the API only when the game needs behavior beyond the guided authoring workflow.
