Bad idea.

You can have infinity by wrapping around.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylinder_chess

Or the old G.I.Joe game on the Commodore 64. It wraps around vertically and horizontally.

Yes. This could be a gamemode one day!

no it isn't a good idea

1: if its a 8x8 board king starts in check giving white a instant win

2; if you increase the size blacks queen can get instantly captured along with the rooks

3:looping horizontally is the only way to do it

You can add another row of pawns like a sandwich.

Maybe it's not realistic to the classical setup.. similar to how unrealistic 3-check is in this (maybe someday I will increase it to 5 or 7). But with a different setup you could prevent these immediate captures off the start.

Add a duck, it can move one in any direction and cant be captured or capture, just there to block pieces and check

Probably a few major updates from now as the demand is a tad lower because there's an existing spreadsheet editor.

I think you just played in a local game and faked this

This is totally on a limb. It's related to Infinite Chess, yet, not related; to this specific topic, at least.

Does anyone know where @Vickalan is now-a-days and how to get a hold of him/her? happy.png

I've contacted him over email. Last time I corresponded from him was June 2023. He's pretty much dropped out of games, spending time outdoors and other things, I don't know too much more.

He and I were particularly a pair of online "peas in a pod". We really enjoyed eachother's company; and excellently bonded over variants and other such stuff.

Despite talking very closely about people who flake on their games, it seems that he was waiting a long time for my response to our game. I wonder if I was the final straw. If so, I'm taking responsibility.
