Fast-loading, fun chess game. So easy that even its author can sometimes beat it. No preloader because, hey, it's only 73k.
Patch #1: Now with correct rules for castling and en passant, and suggested improvements to the AI.
Patch #2: Fixed "replay of player pawn promotion" bug, added a "total moves" figure to the win / lose / stalemate end-screens.

However I only really have one complaint. You cannot castle. I know this is a small point and a truly good player may not need it, but it does hamper the game.

"Pretty, pretty nice"

For me as a chess beginner, it's a nice training. Amazing how small this program is. I don't know, if the engine uses an opening book, but its fun to try so many different openings.
My only complain is, that I often mistake bishop for knight and vice versa. The knight shouldn't wear a spear, or it should wear it on the other side. The general graphics are not bad, though.
