I used to play spreadsheets online ages ago (I think my account is from 2006) and still remember the old engine. One of the image captions made me remember as it says "Eve Online launched back in 2003" while showing graphics that are much newer. I think the current engine (or at least the newer graphics) dates back to roughly 2007-2009.
It is a shame that the code they submitted doesn't include all that history. It looks like they made a clean initial commit in 2025 (October). It does make sense as there might be things in there they don't want public but I would have loved to see more of the development history.
I am curious to see how development moves forward and if the engine is going to be used by other games.
