Comment on Show HN: Kung Fu Chess

Comments

This is great! Nice one! I'm intrigued by the idea of infinite chess - I'm thinking a chess game that when a piece is taken it reappears on it's starting square (when it's next free).

Edit - something like what I suggested exists - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_chess

You might also be interested in Shogi. Captured pieces can be redeployed onto the board with relatively few restrictions in terms of location. It's fun! https://www.chessvariants.com/shogi.html

Commercial Realtime Battle Shogi game was released this year for Nintendo Switch and Playstation 4. https://www.silverstar.co.jp/02products/rtbs/

Wow, that's awesome! I am bad enough at Shogi that I think I need to stick to turn-based for the time being though. :)
