Ha ha haaaa
Yeah, bummer...
Remember that stalemate can't happen when you check the King
And be a little more careful next time when you don't give checks

haha! Yes. You should be more careful next time I have beaten all the bot btw
You always need to make sure your opponent has a legal move when you're in a completely won endgame. If you can, leave a pawn for them to push just in case you reach a position where the king has no moves.

And he wanted to avoid that.
Hey, you would like stalemate if you were in his position
That moment where you thought that a win is guaranteed and...
...the dreaded stalemate comes.
I like at least three queens
well there was an obvious mate that you did not catch

Yeah, exactly! Right after the second promotion, he has the ladder checkmate, only with Queens instead of Rooks!
SMH!
The object of this game is checkmate. Stalemate is a failure condition, where that becomes impossible.
It's important to make a distinction because you failed to achieve that goal, without losing in the sense of being checkmated yourself.
Shoulda been more careful.

After Kb1 there is Qf1 Ka2 Qfa1 - mate in two
Also, the second queen was useless - don't get greedy!
