- New backend system
We are at the final stages of implementing the new backend system to replace Playfab. Our frontend and backend devs are working to replace the Playfab API endpoints with our own APIs. After that the entire system will be deployed to the test environment to run unit tests to ensure the system is stable, runs smooth and works in the same way as when Playfab’s endpoints are in place.
Once that is done, we can push out a game build with the new backend system implemented, and the game devs can roll out game client updates as usual.
Project T
The project aimed to enhance the gameplay experience by addressing several key areas including optimising resource loading, improving UI, refining daily and weekly tasks systems, and enhancing the tutorial experience.
Change Load Game Resources to Addressables: Adopted Unity’s Addressable Assets system to optimise the loading of game resources. This change significantly reduced loading times and improved overall performance, resulting in a smoother gameplay experience for players.
Fix UI in Game: Error UI have been fixed
Fix Daily Tasks and Weekly Tasks: Players can now receive daily and weekly quest rewards
Fix Tutorial: For newly registered players, there will be instructions on building basic houses. There will also be a skip button for those who already know the tutorial
