+[Untitled Pixel Wizards Game][pixel-wizards] is a local-multiplayer [Noita]-like platformer about
+killing baddies using spells powered by pixel physics. July was focused on improving game feel:
+
+- [Blooood][pixel-wizards-update-1]: characters bleed when hit.
+- [Big Bada Boom][pixel-wizards-update-2]: explosions and screenshake get added.
+- [Fixing Flow Killers][pixel-wizards-update-3]: less tech demo and more game loop.
+- [Ladders and Shrooms][pixel-wizards-update-4]: ladders and jump pads appear.
+
+And August saw some more explosives plus a new spell casting system:
+
+- [Barrels of Boom][pixel-wizards-update-5]: explosive barrels and terrain-eating fireworks.
+- [Flinging Powder Atoms][pixel-wizards-update-6]: reworking atom collision handling.
+- [Gesticulating Wildly][pixel-wizards-update-7]: exploring a gesture system for spellcasting.
+- [Elemental Spellcasting][pixel-wizards-update-8]: try Magicka-like spellcasting.
+- [Rocking Shields][pixel-wizards-update-9]: add support for some more spells.
