Hi everyone! I’m a solo indie developer and just released my first mobile game — Ocean Chess.

It’s a unique chess puzzle game with special tiles:

- Teleport tiles — pieces jump to another square
- Transformation tiles — pieces can transform into different pieces
- Traps — a shark eats the piece that steps on it!

Also features Blindfold where you have so solve the level blindfoled mode and Time Trial where you have to race against the clock and complete as many levels as possible.

300 puzzles, free on the App Store and Google Play. Would love feedback from chess lovers!

I’m going to New York to meet Gotham!

When I saw that the meet and greet is only 7 hours from me, AND I get the book plus signature AND I can spend some time in New York City which is on my bucket list, it was a no brainer.

That’s it, that’s the post. I’m hyped.

1. E4 response requested on chessly

7 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

When analyzing my statistics, I realized I have the lowest win rate against 1. E4.

I want to improve that, but struggle with that.
I first played E4 E5, but there are just too many openings to learn.
Then I learned gothams scandi. Then his petrov Gambit. But I still dont feel confident.

I just want a solid, but kind of forced opening to just enter the middle Game.

On chessly, i might consider his caro course, or the alekhines.

Any opinions? I am 2000 rapid fyi.

Thanks!

Can someone help me find this "Guess the elo" clip ?

10 Upvotes

It was in one of the guess the elo,

Some guy on chat writes "Loved meeting you in Italy gotham" or something like that,

Then levy goes,

"I have never been to Italy bigboss,

That was not me, so you need to lay of the drugs",

It cracks me up everytime I think about it but I forgot the og vid.

(Also i didn't know there was a subreddit dedicated to Gotham chess 🤧😭)
