If you had a bunch of problems it would be very challenging.

But firstly, he should delete highscores otherwise it'd be impossible to beat. Haha, f.o. guys (you and Scott)! Laughing

I played this game its good for grasping concepts of mate in one, could you add one more thing, like if i fail to answer in 10 seconds, or if i give the wrong answer, it would show me the correct one ( Not that it takes too long to find it )...just a suggestion :)

Yeah, or an option to reverse your move.

Just type and it should appear.

As for repeats, I think there are under 100 puzzles, so yes you will.

Thanks guys, so the main things on my list at the moment are:

  • More puzzles!! (there are exactly 100 currently)
  • Custom time settings
  • Maybe a take back move button (would probably reset your score though)
Avatar of Scottrf

The take back move request was just for after you fail. So you could resolve the position without having to remember where the moved piece came from.

Avatar of zorba_ca

Very impressive!  It's so frustrating, because it should be...so...easy!

I did encounter some times where I was unable to move my pieces (maybe it was related to me clicking "options" and nothing happening), but a brilliant idea and congrats on the execution of it.

Hello! 
I must start off by saying that the idea is great, and that your puzzles are great too! At my level, they're actually a bit hard. But since mate-in-one's can't be infinitely difficult, I guess you should aim to make them as hard as possible. Further, I have some suggestions:
•make it possible to see the solution after having failed, and/or allow to try the puzzle without a time limit
•rework the sound effects, I find the 'game over'-sound annoying
•create a rating system, kind of like the one of the tactics trainer on this site. Then the puzzles could get difficulty ratings as well, depending on the pass rate of players of varying strenght. (I know this could be tricky). Alternatively, difficulty levels ranging from easy to hard or something.
•enable

It would also be fantastic to be able to contribute with puzzles!

Even as a beta I found playing very joyful, well done! Thumbs up for the development

Avatar of nimit_chess

Finally got to 51, and yeah, theres no problem with the naming system, you just have to begin typing as soon as the game starts,

Looking forward to a similar mate in two game (Y)

Avatar of nimit_chess

and yeah i found a glitch, i have downloaded the version for windows and i have observed that when i hold my cursor on the top bar- the countdown stops. and as soon as i release it, it resumes,

OR

If you happen to open something else say firefox or any other application, the timer stops too.

That's an ugly number, Miha. Go for 700 or 777! :)
