Hexchess.club

Hello all! 👋

Over the last year or two, I've built a platform for hexagonal chess, and would love some feedback and beta testers! You can log in with your chess.com account.

Please give it a try and share your thoughts!

Hi, it's cool! There are some things that would be nice to have though (some of them might exist and i was just too lazy to see them tho)

Lobby for public challenges.

Being able to have the board centered.

Being able to turn off "confirm move"

Games with time constraint.

Overall, this is a nice website

it isnt working for me is it working for you?

fun

So I tried a bit and here are my first thoughts:

I love the UI! It just looks wonderful, no problem with that. Variant is a bit wierd, but that is more like a thing of personal opinion. Its a bit bad there is no lobby for online games and the bot is a bit slow. Anyway, great overall as site just got published.

EDIT: Also, I dont belive "Confirm move" button is neccesary. Players are already careful enough as they are testing out new website.

Interesting

Very cool and interesting variant! Maybe we can integrate this on chess.com soon and make some never-seen before variants!

Quoting zisal, just make a 6-player chaturaji

An update after I've played a few games, this is an extremely interesting variant and really requires you to not think of it has chess, but another game altogether, likely to do with how the movement of the pieces, though essentially the same, is quite quirky if you've been playing chess for a long time.

I'm sure the the possibilities for this would be immense if it could be implemented in Custom Variants.

Very nice website! As others have commented, it would be nice to have settings (turn off "confirm move", change piece looks, other unnecessary customizations), and also have a lobby to play other people with time limits.

Here is a game I won against the com: https://www.hexchess.club/game/yzu6cw
