I ordered a chessup2 last week and am quite excited to get it and was interested in knowing what’s planned for the future. Does anyone know of there is a roadmap anywhere?

Thanks in advance!

Currently we are working on a bot overhaul for our built in bots.

After that we have plans for:

- puzzles
- opening training tools
- game review on the board

I really do! It arrived a couple days ago! It’s been great so far, no issues at all.

With freestyle / chess 960 - are you looking for 2 player, games vs Ai, or online player vs player?

Good point should’ve included that! I was mainly thinking 2 player and vs bots since I think it’s relatively simple to implement.

Online would be cool but not a necessity!

2 player and vs Ai are easier to implement and is likely where we would start.

We have other features in line ahead of chess960 - but it is on the longer list.

Jeff -

Do you have an estimate on the date in which the bot overhaul will be completed?

Thanks

Mike

Thanks Jeff. I am also hoping after the overhaul we will still be able to play the current bots. Personally, I have learned a lot by playing the level 12 and 13 bots.

Thanks again.

Mike
