+is an experimental MMORTS with the backend and the web client all written in
+Rust.
+
+February gave birth to Paddlers release 0.2.1 and a ton of new game mechanics.
+It features a skill map, quests, and a refreshed take on the tower defense
+aspect of the game. On top of that, the rendering engine (part of the
+[Paddle][paddle] framework) has been reworked and now allows for custom
+shaders. Read all about this month's changes in this
+[article][paddlers-article] released on the developer's private website.
