# Weekly Update 20/02/2023

**Game Design**\
— Still creating QA test cases

**Backend**\
We worked on the inventory part 2: after adding the base Logic we focused on adding various effects of the items.

**Frontend**\
I worked on the architecture update for the frontend app.\
— Changed the get village system from VaRest to custom Api calls through cpp.\
— Changed all authenticating and constructing Json objects from World Controller.\
— Only one-time authentication is required for each point.\
— A few blockages as the ObjectArray field of data in GET villages is not coming through from an array to array. Switching it from an array to a struct.\
— Changed Check facility list to build to Cpp.\
— Changed spawn facilities to Cpp.\
— Nothing is being done by VaRest now.\
— Deleted all unnecessary nodes or some calls by VaRest that were returning invalid responses.

**Trailer**\
Trailer as well as the advertising video of the game are ready, we are waiting for the right moment to publish them.
