Guassia · Development history
A timeline of documented Guassia milestones, with links to public release records and the approved early-history account. Dates describe development and release history; this archive edition was published October 1, 2026.
Compiled by Ashley Kalkowski. Historical dates follow reviewed development records and source release notes.
A source checkpoint records implementation at a point in time. A functional check records behavior under stated conditions. A delivery record verifies a public release. These establish different facts. The timeline follows the preserved public record beginning in September 2026; it does not claim the first-ever idea or first line of code.
Earliest surviving renderer evidence
The earliest reviewed records describe actual rendered video from a procedural music visualizer. This is a surviving-record date, rather than the first-ever idea or the start date of a completed Gaussian game engine.
Read the approved historyReviewed development records
The next surviving records describe Gaussian projection and later Spark scene integration. These were steps toward the later creation environment; they do not establish every subsequent editor or gameplay feature.
Read the approved historyFirst preserved Git checkpoint
The first preserved repository checkpoint already contains substantial development. Its date records an implementation state and remains separate from the public delivery later that day.

The public hub connected learning pages, local room editing and a bounded Gaussian solo playtest. A website export was inspected; execution on a separate host and a working public multiplayer service were outside that initial verification.

The music-component history describes reactive lights, a spectrum wall, an interactive sound orb and selected-audio preservation in a tested export. These are creator-facing integrations, rather than a claim of new acoustic science.

World-authoring notes describe a blank starting scene, optional progression, authored NPC behavior, spatial sounds and room transitions. The supported workflow remains a bounded creation preview.
Read the original milestoneDocumented browser fixture
The public fixture distinguishes five million authored references from 350,000 active preview samples. Larger retained projects and bounded previews answer different capacity questions; this was not a simultaneous full-detail five-million display benchmark.

Browser project archives and native world files gain explicit save and reopen workflows. Authoring views remain separate from first-person, third-person, fixed and top-down gameplay camera settings.

The release notes connect object editing, source preservation, visual gameplay rules and project recovery. Supported editing behavior does not establish general modeling-suite or engine parity.

ASHVEIL ENGINE and Asset Engine have distinct application identities and local creation workflows. The history records later native-launch repairs, keeping delivered packages separate from successful installed use.
Read the original milestoneDelivery verified; visual acceptance held
The modeling release describes supported parametric shapes and reversible deformation. The same history preserves a later near-camera floor-ring failure in version 0.5.19, after successful delivery and file operations.

The optional preview serves supported static RGB assets. Its functional checks, negotiated limits and delivery record remain separate from comparative speed and engine-wide migration claims.

Equal-count synthetic comparisons record bounded image improvements. Antialiasing and supersampling change presentation; these source observations do not establish independent delivery or photographic realism.
Read the original milestoneSource checkpoint
The public notes describe familiar brush controls, reversible strokes and a tested saved-asset round trip. Prepared-application observations and fixed-view fixtures have explicit scale and appearance limits.

The experimental Vulkan preference operates underneath the existing WebGL2 renderer through ANGLE. Requested and actual backends are distinguished, and the tested compositing path can be slower.
Read the original milestonePublic update guidance
Update guidance explains separate launcher and tool versions and the one-time manual upgrade needed by older local-channel launchers. Download integrity and Windows publisher signing remain different properties.
Read the original milestonePublic release record
The usability release improves navigation, readability and direct feedback. It explicitly leaves Gaussian rendering and graphics-quality algorithms unchanged, so its source checks are not rendering benchmarks.
