# Weekly Update 21/03/2023

**Game Design**\
— Just adding temporary MKC prices on the items\
— A few tweaks in the Game Balance sheets

**Backend**\
After implementing all the Items descriptors, we added a purchase route to enable users to buy an item with their village’s MKCs. This also adds the internal transaction receipt Next steps: item activation for direct use + use of item + /rules update

**Frontend**\
Fixed empty city or building spawning at the wrong location. Fixed a bug where you need to log in two time and make the UI work with the new codebase

**Art**\
As the NFT Ape Alert collection is coming, we have prepared some nice emoji for our community to enjoy.

**Website**\
We have taken the time to define the needs of our web that will allow players to connect to their account as well as interact with the blockchain. Our entire website will be redone in Next.js, we are very excited.

**Event**\
We are attending Paris Blockchain Week, do not hesitate to contact us.
