+
+[Cargo Space] ([Discord][cargospace_discord]) by
+[@johanhelsing][johanhelsing_mastodon] is a co-op 2d space game where you build
+a ship and fly it through space looking for new parts, fighting pirates and the
+environment.
+
+This month's development was all about lobbies, chat and integrating with Steam.
+This spawned a couple of new micro-crates.
+
+[bevy_crossbeam_event] lets you spawn Bevy events by
+sending to a crossbeam channel, which is convenient with callbacks which require
+move semantics, such as those in `bevy-steamworks`.
+
+[steam_dev_launcher] is a cross-platform binary crate all
+about dev-friendly ways launching your game through Steam. That is: without
+losing logs, panic traces, and optionally using a custom binary or setting extra
+environment variables (launch from `/target/debug/your_game`).
+
+Read more about all this in [this month's devlog entry][cargospace_devlog_6].
