« Last post by turtleman on August 14, 2026, 08:38:56 PM »Thanks Jordan, I use codex, it's way better than Claude. My project is completely written in Go in a custom version of an open source framework called Ebitengen from the front end website to the game code. I'm a software developer but there's no way I would have built this without AI by myself as a blind man.
With that said, I just did a complete UI revamp , I've pushed the Early Access date to September 23rd - I've made the web version free to play for ranked and all features. I've revamped the mobile UI and rebalanced Tactical mode. I removed the skirmish mode and added 'En Passanant' ability called You Shall Not 'En Passant' for those not familiar with chess, a lesser known rule is that when a pawn is approaching you, and when you first move your pawn, if you move it 2 spaces and it's adjacent to the opponent pawn, it can take that pawn as if it moved 1 space. In the case of pillar of war, you have 3 seconds to attack the ghost of that unit, dealing 2 damage instead of 1 to that pawn.
I've also added a new Arena mode with a demo challenge called 'Bog's Gambit' demonstrating the extended gameplay features I plan on implementing into this game. Right now my main focus is getting the multiplayer tested. I want you guys to help me out and play some matches

in my case my body was attacking itself and destroyed my corneas so I was losing eye pressure. I wear scleral contacts to protect them but this has been something Ive been fighting for going on 3 years now seeing eye specialists. I've taken every kind of eye drop or ointment for steroids/antibiotics under the sun. I used to wear heating pads on my eyes all day to soften the shards that were coming out of my tear glands. The good news is I've got one new cornea with another on the way, my body has stopped attacking itself and my underlying vision is okay but I need new lenses with cataract surgeries after my corneas healed. So basically I got fucked pretty hard but I'm coming back
