Pre-released v0.3 - Special Move Update

Checker Chess
A browser game made in HTML5

What's New: Pre-released v0.3

This update brings the special moves in chess, such as castling and promotion. It also prevents the player from making moves that will result in a king capture.

New Features & Improvements ✨

  1. Castling: This allows you to move your king two spaces towards a rook, and then place the rook on the last space that the king passed.
  2. Promotion: If your pawn makes it all the way to the opposite side of the board, your chess pieces will be promoted to a queen, and your checker pieces will become a queen checker automatically. This will fix an issue where pawn and checker are stuck at the last row in the previous version.
  3. Check Prevention: The game will not allow any moves you make to break the rule not to put your own king into check.

This is a pre-release version. We're excited for you to try it out and help us refine the game as we work toward a full release.
