🎶 I'm in the business of mystery, let's take it from the top

It has been done! :) You can do it either by copy-pasting or dragging and dropping an image onto the board.

A great idea! I was thinking of implementing drag and drop, so you can just drop an image directly onto the board. It would take some work though. :)

Thank you, I'm glad you like it!

There's a way to add and remove pieces now. While dragging, press the SPACE key to clone the piece you're dragging. Press the X key to delete the piece you're dragging.

Have fun! :)

You're right. This chess game has too many rules. Why can't I add/remove pieces? The board? Why can't I move pieces deeper into or out of the screen? These unspoken rules are imposed on us unfairly. We need to escape the matrix.

You got me there, that is absolutely true.

Hi, this bug fixed in the latest version. Thanks! =)

Thank you! =) 

This is a common misconception. There are no rules against flinging the pieces out of the window. In practice, you are still playing No Rules Chess. We are all playing No Rules Chess, indefinitely.

Thank you! That's so sweet of you to say.

OK, done! Thanks for participating. :)

I had this dumb idea when Sophie mentioned the chess jam on Patreon, and when I discovered that chess piece symbols exist in Unicode, I no longer had any excuse not to make it (other than how pointless it is).
