0xChess

what is 0xChess?

chess on a hexagonal board that is not patented

how does it work?

• drag 'n drop your pieces to move
• piece movement works like on squares by converting diagonals and straights to a hex grid
  • click on a piece to see how it can move
  • you'll figure it out 😅
• no casteling
  
• no taking en passant
• reach the opposing back rank with a pawn to promote it
• you win if the opposite king is out of legal moves for the next turn

what's next?

• add tutorial / move info
• enable mirrored starting positions
• enable randomised starting positions
• enable clock games
• enable different boards
• enable different color themes
• enable concurrent games (maybe even accounts)
• make socket protocol more robust
