why github is epic:
the game's source code being hosted on a github repository not only acts as a live backup, but also keeps a record of all changes to the code and game asset structure over time.
github repos can host releases, which in this case will be internal beta builds. previously, i had to upload game builds to my iffy-at-best private server.
once the demo is out, releasing the game's source code (which i plan to do some time after the demo releases) will be as easy as setting the repository to public.
