The Moondust Editor is the primary Moondust module game creators would most likely use. Its capabilities include creating and editing levels, worlds and custom game configuration.

It's of interest to note that the editor is able to to create levels that are compatible with both the classic SMBX64 standard as well as the Moondust project's format. As the editor fully supports all SMBX formats, when dealing with SMBX levels, some have found it easier to consider it an advanced alternative to the original SMBX Editor.
