Hey all (whoever's reading this).
This has been a long time comin'! A huge patch-up and rework update for Incarnage, overdue by about 24 months or something ridiculous. These are some changes made over the course of that time in little bursts of inspiration while I was tackling my other projects.

This game was a lengthy, hellish development that I don't like to revisit often, but I at least want it to be in a decent state. I may add to it in the future to expand on the game's barely-tangible plotline since there was much cut from the game in a last-minute mad-rush to finish it. We'll see!
