The Sphere API is the collective name for the set of bindings (functions, objects, and methods) available for use by all Sphere games. The API provides access to a host of convenient features, allowing you to get up and running quickly.
Making new function/object pages
Simple steps:
Core API
The Core API provides low-level access to the engine's features and includes all bindings provided directly by the engine. These bindings are exposed to the global scope and can be used without importing any extra modules.

- Sphere.Game
- Sphere.Platform
- Sphere.Version
- Sphere.abort()
- Sphere.exit()
- Sphere.restart()
- Sphere.run()

Sphere Runtime
The Sphere Runtime is a standard collection of JavaScript modules included with the engine. Some modules can even be used in Cellscripts as well! Unlike the Core API above which was organized by category, the following list is organized by module. Most modules export only a single object or function; to import more than one at a time, you can use an ES2015 import statement and import objects from the sphere-runtime or cell-runtime module, as appropriate:
In a Sphere game
import { from, Music, Thread } from 'sphere-runtime';
In a Cellscript
import { assert, transpile } from 'cell-runtime';
from Module
- from()
- from::all()
- from::allIn()
- from::any()
- from::anyIn()
- from::anyIs()
- from::ascending()
- from::besides()
- from::count()
- from::descending()
- from::each()
- from::first()
- from::from()
- from::including()
- from::last()
- from::random()
- from::reduce()
- from::remove()
- from::sample()
- from::select()
- from::shuffle()
- from::skip()
- from::take()
- from::toArray()
- from::update()
- from::where()
