what do i do in this position?
There are a lot of things you could do, Ik for me my favorite kinds of things to do when you are in a difficult position but have a lot of attackers is sacrificing like a pawn/knight/bishop. I wouldn’t recommend it because it is risky but that’s what I would do AND NO ONE TELL ME THAT I AM DUMB FOR DOING THAT it is just what I enjoy and my opinion

i probably could have sacrificed dark squared bishop by taking the pawn on h6, but after the pawn on g7 takes h6 back, i'm pretty much in the same position but without the dark square bishop. i don't think that a sacrifice would be the right call in this position.

- in my opinion I would sacrifice the light square bishop to either force the rook or the king to take than either pin the rook or check the king, my reasoning behind it will just to create an opening to the king or just an opening in general
Nc5 is very good and another possible move is Kg1. That's because he's threatening to push c6-c5, opening up his bishop. I would probably play Kg1.

that makes sense. it keeps black in a tight position and prevents any knight pins.

i thought of the light square bishop check as well. if black takes the bishop with the king, then black will most likely lose. if black takes the bishop with the rook then things look like they could get bad for white. the only way to check the king after that rook takes bishop is to take black's dark square bishop with the knight on e4. this simplifies things for black and allows him to start opening up his position. seems a little bit too risky.
what motivates a person to use the 8-bit set?
i got tired of the default set, so i switched to 8-bit after seeing people complain about it on the forums. i lost the first few games after i switched to it, but i'm used to it by now.

I like playing risky that’s why I would play this but Yk, not everyone likes to play with Risk

That isn't worth such a powerful bishop

that sacrifice is almost never worth it in any other position too unless you win 2 pawns
White is winning because of his passed pawn at d6. You should indeed trade the blockading knight at d7 as Nimzovich taught, but not with your excellently placed supporting blockading knight at e4, but instead with your less helpful bishop c4. First you must remove your king from the diagonal of Bb7. 1 Kg1 c5 2 Bb5 Qc8 3 Bxd7 Qxd7 4 Nxc5 wins.
Also you can try counterplaying on king side with your first priority to move king to G1 to avoid pin on your very active knight. Pushes like g4, g5, and bishop pinning f7 and rook on f file, attack is unclear but it should be a good try.

i got in this position in a game i played today. i wasn't sure what i was supposed to do, so i played Nc5 to trade off the knights. anyone have any ideas?
