Thanks for the feedback.
I fixed a bug with those buttons a few days ago and thought the same. Maybe I'll just go with a resize or a little color switch for now.
The other part with the feedback is already on my to-do. I planned to show the last move of the opponent, so you can see where he could escape.
And for the puzzles...they are in fact random. I just decided how many mates per puzzle and the algo gets it from a db.
