**Backend**\
&#xNAN;**-** Deployed the new Beta prod server\
\- Added user external wallet feature for the webapp user account\
\- Added user social medias feature for the webapp user account\
\- Added user bio feature for the webapp user account\
\- Improved the resource collection\
\- Fixed the email check at subscribe\
\- Unblocked the Orders (due to facility regression bug)\
\- Strenghtened the village resource type counts between redis and postgresql\
\- Fixed an issue linked to attacks

**Frontend**\
\- Added conditions for building upgrade\
\- Remove Canva UI element to improve performance\
\- Did our own async loading screen, Unreal one crash\
\- Fixed a UI bug that made the game crash\
\- We had a lot of old stuff in project folder. Mostly related to our old UI. Deleted a hundred assets (yes that’s a lot).\
\- Implemented the new worldmap : Now there are mountains, water and forests. We used placeholder assets, so they lack optimisation and quality. Our best artist will pimp that worldmap soon !\
\- Packaged the game on Android. Works well on my device. Had to solve all errors and warning, otherwise Unreal Build Tool is not happy and don’t let us package game.\
\- Added energy in HUD\
\- Prepared attack menu, still need to be connected to the server

**Website**\
Our website is almost finished, it will be live this week and we will launch the “Early Player Program” stay tune!\
You will now be able to create a game account on the website, fill in your social networks and add an address for the rewards.

We just finished integrating the last icons, here is an example.
