It’s been a while since I last gave an update on Lenna’s Inception. I’m not dead and I have not ended the project; I’m just taking a much needed break. Soon I will continue work on it, albeit at a …

There’s a long list of things I’ve done to the game this week. It seems like now that the hard stuff (networking, the core of the engine, etc.) has been done, I can add features at a rate of about one per day.
These new features work seamlessly on networked multiplayer.
