Halfchess Game DESCRIPTION

― Got busy? Yet love to play chess!

halfChess is for you — played on half the board (easy fit on your phone) and lasts only 5 min (quick fun).

It unique features are:-

● 100+ stages to practice against AI on a smaller board
● Blind mode pieces disappear after 3 moves
● NEW! 2-player games and a community

Please feel free to reach out with any improvement requests or ideas.

Teacher mode

Teach your kid, friend or partner to learn how to play chess while playing games with them on the Halfchess app. You can do this in a cafe or on the move.

Deliberate Practice for End Games

150 stages of varying difficulty levels so you can practice valuable end game skills such as deep thinking, fast-thinking, pushing opponent pieces, and reducing their attach area.

Improve Focus and Memory

Playing blind chess will help you sharpen memory and focusing skills. In blind mode, the chess pieces disappear after a few moves (as in the screenshot).

New rules to the age-old Chess

HalfChess changes two rules of chess, as do the chess variants.

1. You stalemate your opponent, and you win (Not a draw)
2. No castling

Notable achievements

HalfChess was at the 12th position at Pioneer.app startup competition, among hundreds of global participants. We have also received media coverage from YourStory.com.

Game REVIEWS

Dave

There's a noticeable delay when moving the pieces. Pretty annoying. The pieces should have animation so I can better grasp what is going on. Ugly pieces, especially the bishop. This is a proof of concept. It shows promise but you shouldn't be monetizing it just yet. Good idea though. Hope it does well in the future.
----------
Thanks buddy. I did not realise that the delay can be annoying and it's an easy ask to work on (I can see your point there). Do you mind dropping a mail to me on flipflopapps@gmail.com (I would love to discuss more). Esp if you are a designer, we will have more to chat about. I will try looking up your email and drop you a note. Cheers.

Phani

really interesting idea. love the game

Akhilesh

Amazing concept!

Guest

Amazing game, instantly fun.

Guest

There's no way to turn the sound off 😠
----------
Now there is in version 3.9.2 . Thanks for brining that up. :-)

Guest

online game play is so laggy.. 😒🙄
----------
its a lot better this year :-[)

Guest

nice game but it doesn't fit the screen, fix this bug also add some features like settings option, undo option.
----------
Hey Krishna. Thanks for caring. The latest update has an undo option and it should fit the screen also.

Guest

enjoyable app, with interesting variations.
----------
So much more in the app now in 2020. Do keep playing. Thanks

Guest

amazing variation.. playing chess after so long, only cuz this one is super fast and quick.. much better than other mindless casual games
----------
Quite appreciate it. Please invite your friends and shoot me a mail on what features I can add.

Guest

Nice concept but sometimes whole board doesn't fit in the screen. Also adding undo move while playing against computer might be a good idea
----------
I have seen that the board can cross the screen on android. Thanks for pointing it out again. We have an undo and I think the screen issues are fixed too.

Guest

Gsmeplay is very creative.. must play
----------
Thanks Akil. Keep sharing interesting creative chess ideas with us. Hope you have joined the WhatsApp group from the 'Find Opponent' section.

Guest

A good game
----------
Thanks Jaylen. Do invite your friends. Its also a great tool for teaching kids chess.

Guest

Nice game. But definitely needs a delay in the computer response. Otherwise very well made.

Guest

Few suggestions, delay computer response by a few seconds, add some sounds. Great game otherwise.
----------
Thanks. I would love to add them in the next iteration. I keep making slow and steady improvements to the game. :-)

Guest

Interesting
----------
Thank you. You can always tell me what would you like to see next in the app (mail me from about us screen). Also, ★ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k6pYkSh2NcA&start=0029&end=0042 ★

Guest

Bugs need to be fixed. Crabs move diagonally fwd not fwd. No crabs option not honoured always. Need animations or images on hoe crabs move.
----------
Thanks again. You should try the latest version 1.8.5 (animations still missing) and send me a feedback. I am always trying to make it better. The Lannisters pay their debts. Hur ek feedback ★ zaroori hota hai... Thanks :p

Guest

love the simple gui, and open source code on github
----------
Hello - sorry no immediate plans to open source. Perhaps after I earn my bread and wine. :-) I do quite a bit of open source though - my github id's are @flipflopapp and @archiejs . Thanks so much for the 5 star ratings. If you drop me an email (via app or github), I would love to talk with you.

Guest

Guest

Innovative play on traditional chess game. Definitely try this if you like playing chess, or even if you don't try this to learn chess. Half chess is half as difficult as normal chess but twice as exciting.

Thanks Saurav
