+
+![space_shooter_rs gameplay](space_shooter_12-03-2020.gif)
+
+The [Space Shooter] project is a game in development by [Carlo Supina] and
+[Micah Tigley]. It is a 2D "shoot-em-up" game that takes place in space and is
+inspired by games like [Raiden] and [Binding of Isaac].
+
+Exciting new additions have been made in November!
+
+- Micah added a ["paused" text overlay] to provide visual indication for when
+  the game is paused.
+- Carlo added a [new armor system] that gives a chance for destroyed enemies to
+  drop armor consumables that can block a single hit from any damage source.
+- Work on a new [Missile Launcher enemy] has begun!
