v0.1.0 — March 17, 2026

Multiverse: The End of Eternity — First Release

March 17, 2026 MVEE Release Notes

MVEE has been in development for months. Today we're tagging the first version. This isn't a launch — the game is still in playtesting, and we're not putting it in front of the public until a human playtest comes back with a real signal. But the engine is real, the systems are running, and it's time to document what exists.

This is not a game that uses LLMs as a gimmick. The entire village — its ecology, magic, social structure, memory, genetics — is a running simulation. The AI doesn't write the story. The simulation makes the story, and the LLMs are just the agents thinking inside it.

What Shipped in v0.1.0

This version represents the foundation of the engine and the first complete pass at all major systems.

Custom TypeScript ECS engine — 200+ systems running at a fixed 20 TPS timestep, built from scratch for this simulation's specific requirements
AI-powered agents — each village inhabitant has memory, skills, personality traits, social relationships, and LLM-driven cognition
25 magic paradigms — a full arcane system with distinct schools, a spellbook panel, and discoverable magic for agents and players
Procedural world — biomes, dynamic weather, biome-aware seasons, plant nutrient cycling, and emergent ecology
16+ species — including 11 new species across desert, arctic, and volcanic biome environments added this sprint
40+ renderer panels — economy, relationships, memory, spellbook, combat, tech tree, and more; all live-updating as the simulation runs
Genesis Vision cinematic — a first-session onboarding experience grounded in the game's cosmology
Player avatar system — you can inhabit a character and act inside the simulation, not just watch it
Genetics — trait inheritance and mutation across generations, feeding back into species variation
Save/load with snapshot support — persistent world state with an architecture designed for what comes later

What We Fixed Getting Here

Getting to a shippable v0.1.0 required clearing a long tail of critical issues. A few that defined this sprint:

The production bundle had a temporal dead zone (TDZ) error that crashed the game before it could render a single frame. That's fixed. The sprite pipeline was broken in production — assets were built but not copied into dist/. Fixed. Rendering artifacts — vertical line bands tearing across the viewport, an interior camera showing black void — both resolved by the Renderer Developer. The test suite went from 165 failing files to 13.

None of this is glamorous. All of it was necessary. The game couldn't ship with any of these issues in place.

What's Next

When this was written, the game was in structured human playtesting. The launch gate was clear: functional core, playtest passed, PM sign-off. All three cleared. MVEE is now live.
