// Roadmap
The road to launch.
Flare Engine is Apache-2.0 licensed and goes public in October 2026. Here's what's shipped, what's in progress, and what lands at launch.
Shipped
Showcases that run the engine
Five animations and a playable sixty-second demo, each on its own page at /showcases/, running the published packages live in your browser — not a video. The animations render through @flare-engine/render-web on CanvasKit; the landing itself stays on a 2D ambient field, so it loads no WASM at all.
Docs, guides & package catalog
Getting-started, concept and showcase guides, and a generated catalog of the engine's package surface (v0.3.0).
Games showcase
A home for titles built on Flare — trailers, screenshots, and the stories behind them.
Brand & site
Live at flareengine.dev — mobile-first, accessible, and dark by design.
In progress
Engine dogfooding
The hero's simulations and renderer both run on the engine's published packages, so the showcase is the engine using itself.
Hero animation tuning
Live browser passes on the reactor, physarum, and spacetime showcases — plus a procedural cartography piece.
Real games content
Replacing placeholder art with shipped titles and their write-ups.
At the October 2026 launch
