This page mentions meaningful events in the history in AAGRINDER, including information useful for those wanting to check out older versions of AAGRINDER.
For a more detailed history of game development, mentioning all changes that would be meaningful to the player, see the AAGRINDER Changelog
For an even more highly detailed history, mentioning all code changes, see the git commit messages.
AAGRINDER does not have version numbers, only raw commit history. Most points in the commit history are reasonably stable versions. A version of the server is typically compatible with the terrain generator from the same date. Please note that older AAGRINDER versions may have different dependencies. The aagrinder-terrain repository has git tags for the versions of the terrain generator which were used on the official server aagrinder.xyz. Updating the terrain generator on an existing world is not recommended.
2017[edit]
Some time in early 2017, Maze got the idea for this game.
In August, 2017, the first iteration of the game was created.
2018[edit]
On February 8, 2018, the code was published on GitHub. Records of versions before this date are lost.
On April 16, 2018, the MongoDB dependency was replaced by MySQL, making the AAGRINDER server easier to install.
On November 12, 2018, the repository migrated from GitHub to GitLab.

2024[edit]
In May 2024, development started on the terrain generator again, adding new biomes and structures. Although this update is backwards compatible, starting a new world is recommended.
