TactiChess released, looking for play testing & feedback

[Marek]

I've launched my new chess tactics game, TactiChess.

It's not a chess game per se. It's a chess problem trainer inspired by Chess Tactics Server, but which features positions from real grandmaster games and gives you feedback on your moves.

I had previously worked on this on the Facebook platform and under a different name, but I decided to release it as a standalone game.

My plans are to add accounts to let you track your score, and select game collections to play (e.g. play a collection of only Kasparov games)

The magic behind the scenes comes from chess game databases (which I obtained as PGN files) and the Stockfish open-source chess engine, which I use to analyze and rank the playable moves.

I'm looking for feedback and play testing. Thanks!

Pretty cool; interface is easy to use, and it's fast. Perhaps it's because I'm a chess novice, but I'd like to see:

• The position designations on the board
• What the score means
• Why the move was the best move

I have no idea the feasibility of these things, or if you even need it, if this application is aimed at people who already know chess pretty well. I like it, though; nice job!
