Greetings!

As many of you already know, we attended the Alephium Builders Weekend in Athens, where we met numerous Alephium ecosystem builders from various projects. We had great conversations with many projects and individuals like Alphbanx, Ayin, Deadrare, Duck Lounge, Swapa, HoldAlph, and many more. My colleague Dimfred (<https://x.com/notdimfred>) also gave a presentation about how Merkle Trees can be utilized on Alephium. Eventually, they will influence Payment Pools on Pyreplay as well. Overall, we were amazed by the enthusiasm and confidence in Alephium and can't wait for its flourishing future.

**Game Development:**

* Implemented all Alpha Tester Feedback
* Included start, placement, and turn timers
* Implemented Touch Controls for mobile users

**Upcoming:**

* Polishing the last Battleship elements
* Start of development for the second game (Surprise ;)
* Last piece of the puzzle: Smart Contract Concept from Dimfred
