It was a fun chess variant, good job! Does this chess variant have a name?
My first game against Alice was a draw, it ended up king vs. king, but the game doesn't recognize that situation as a draw. So I had to reload.
I won the second game against Alice and I could beat Carl Brok on my first try. However, he never used his "undo" special ability. The game progressed really gradually though, maybe that's why.
Also thanks for making it open-source, I will check out how the AI works sometime!
Thanks! I made this variant for the game (maybe it existed prior to that) and called it “Choss” which isn’t very inspired ahah. The goal was just to create a simpler game than chess for beginners and also remove opening theory for advanced players, but it probably isn’t as well balanced as more serious chess variants :)
I’m aware of the draw bug but didn’t fix it yet ahah
And yes, Carl probably didn’t use his power because you beat him very progressively ahah, which is kinda hard to do so well done!
The AI code is probably the cleanest part of the code, but the move generation phase is really lacking in optimisations, even though the algorithm is good 👍
Thanks for playing!
