I was wondering if there was anyone who would be interested in making an Open Source version of AnarchyChess. IE, take some specific rules like Siberian Swipe, Il Vaticano, Knight Boost, alpha beta decay, il vaticannon etc and modify an existing open source game (and engine) to play to these rules. Of course En Passant is forced and friendly fire may be turned on.
The new game would be hosted on github and probably be a fork of DreamChess for desktop or GCompris for android (or if someone knows something better that can be used on both Android and Apple, then im open to suggestions).
The first "deliverable" would be to enable people to play on a single shared device, then maybe see about adding some sort of algebraic notation to allow playing by correspondence.
Edit: At the core of this project would be open source, IE: program would be free to download, build and play, no accounts, no ads. This is not something I, or anyone else who would be working on would be looking to monetise. As part of accepting the upstream license of using the code, we always have to make the code available.
What are peoples thoughts ? Any other questions ?
Other moves: alpha beta decay, il vaticannon
Noted, thankyou.
