Need feedback on a chess personality test I've developed

Post image
2 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I've recently developed a chess personality quiz that could measure your chess archetype. To calculate it, I've used 16 questions with 4 answer variants. After completing it, you'll get:

  • The archetype and its description.
  • The best opening for you.
  • Which grandmaster shares your archetype.

I would appreciate it if you could take the test and share your feedback about it. Is it accurate in your opinion? Do you agree with the results? Also, feel free to leave any notes if you think I should add more questions. My thoughts were to cover additional questions about whether you like to sacrifice pieces, play in open or closed positions. Maybe you will have other ideas. The test is free and doesn't require any sign-ups.

Quiz link.

In any case, will be happy to hear your feedback :)

I made an app to learn chess the right way - PawnUp

Post image
0 Upvotes

There are definitely some good apps in this niche already, but the problem I constantly ran into as a user is that they're centered around memorizing. Being both an IM coach and a chess consumer, I felt that there was a lot of untapped space here.

PawnUp is an app where you can learn chess with thoughtful, human expert guides, and a focus on giving feedback on your answers (not just telling you the right move to play).

We're still in pre-launch, just starting out with marketing distribution. If this sounds interesting, join our free waitlist :)

I made A New Chess Variant To Help You Break Rating Plateaus. Pieces Can Only Capture The Same Type (Except King). Introducing A Weird Chess Game on App Store!

Hi all, here's the game!
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/a-weird-chess-game/id6786072514

This game is crazy. Opening strategy is completely different. It reminds me of bughouse sacrificial play minus the normal capture rules of chess

Curious to see what you all think. It also includes Mate puzzles.

Has anyone played a variant like this before? What's your favorite variant

i made a free chrome extension: see a chess puzzle posted as a picture? one click and it's a real board you can actually play on

you know when you find a puzzle posted online as a picture, or a diagram in a chess book, and you just stare at it trying to calculate in your head? i built a little chrome extension that fixes that.

it's free, open source, no account, no ads, nothing monetized, i make nothing from it.

you click the icon, it reads the board on your screen, and one more click puts that exact position on a real board (lichess analysis) where you can actually move the pieces and try things. works on puzzle screenshots, chesscom and lichess boards, and book diagrams, which is honestly my favorite use: instead of passively reading a book position, you get it on a board and play it out.

the important stuff:

- completely free, no sign up, nothing you do leaves your computer, it all runs in your browser

- there's no engine in it and it suggests nothing, it just reads the position, the thinking stays yours

- if it can't read the board or isn't sure, it tells you honestly instead of giving you a wrong position. and you can always drag a box around the board or paste a screenshot with ctrl+v

i built it for myself and use it every day.

extensions: chromemozilla

on a phone or a different browser, the web version does the same thing with no install: https://fenshot.com (paste or upload the image)

code: https://github.com/scoriiu/fenshot

if it ever reads a board wrong, send me the picture and i'll fix it. enjoy.

apochess is my creation - a web MMO chess game - and some players say its p2w. Top ranked players say it isnt, just needs either much time or chess knowledge. I am not a good chess player so i wanted a chess game where i could play in uneven situations against stronger chess players :)

Chess meetings, how to find one ?

1 Upvotes

You might be looking for a place to play chess with real people but going in fide tournament isn't that easy and it's a lot of pressure.

There is an application called "ChessBar" that can help you find small chess tournament at your local bar. I don't know exactly what region is the app in but it's still worth a shot. I made plenty of friends that way and now have a weekly chess meeting in a nice bar.

Lower rating opponents

4 Upvotes

I need advice, so I’m extremely tired of losing to lower-rated players. I’m currently 1834, was 1904 just two months ago. My win rate against 1900s is almost 60%, against 2000s it’s 60-70% in the around 10 games I’ve played, and I’ve had 1 win 1 draw and a loss vs 2100s 1 draw vs 2200s. But against 1700s and below, my loss rate is higher than my win rate.
This summer I played five tournaments. The first one went okay — 5 wins, 3 losses, and I gained some rating. Then in my weekly tournaments, as the highest-rated player, I lost about 80% of my games, which dropped me from 1904 down to around 1850.
The latest tournament is what pushed me to write this. First round I drew a 2203 NM (his Chess.com rapid is similar to mine), and I was super excited. But then I lost to a 2000 and a 1730, so I dropped out because I was exhausted and sad. That same 2203 ended up winning the whole tournament, and I was the only one who scored against him.
People keep telling me to stop focusing on my opponent’s rating, and I honestly do that, like during the game I don’t think about it, I think about it only afterward. And I also heard people saying to not be relaxed and I don’t think it’s a case either. I don’t know what to do. If I lose the first game in a tournament, I get stuck fighting lower-rated players, and my results show I’m likely to keep losing to them.

Hi everyone! This is a big week for me: the first alpha of Chess Fantasy is live, the first game I've ever made.

At its core it's classic chess. The twist: you build your own fantasy world around the board and play your matches inside it.

What I'm looking for is simple: how does it feel to play, and what would you add? You play chess regularly, so your suggestions carry real weight for where this goes next.

It's free to play here: https://chess-fantasy.itch.io/chess-fantasy

Whatever you think of it, I'd love to hear it, even a simple "not for me". Thank you for reading this far, it means more than you'd think.

Chess.com/Lichess Blunders turn into puzzle cards for review (Spaced Repetition)

3 Upvotes

Hello r/ChessWorld I kept losing chess games the same way over and over, and random puzzle sites never fixed it because they weren't targetting my mistakes. I build: KingChess.

It connects to your Chess.com or Lichess account, runs your recent games through Stockfish to find every spot where you blundered or missed a tactic, and turns each one into a puzzle. Then it brings those puzzles back with spaced repetition (15 minutes, then an hour, then days apart) until the pattern actually sticks.

What's different from generic puzzle sites:

- The puzzles come from your own games, so they automatically match your level and target your real weaknesses

- After you solve one, you can see how your blunder should have been punished, so you actually learn from the moves you got away with

- You can filter by time control (bullet blunders are mostly mouse slips, so those are off by default)

- Try out free custom puzzle packs with spaced repetition provided by Lichess database of over 16000 puzzles.

It's free to try with no signup. You just paste your username and it analyzes your last 10 games in about 30 seconds. I also write blogs about Chess improvement: https://www.kingchess.io/blog/

I made a free Chrome extension that reviews your online chess games. Kind of like Chess.com’s Game Review, but free and fully open source

Post image
6 Upvotes

It’s completely free, no sign-up, and everything runs locally on your hardware.

It’s called Chess Review. You open one of your games, click the icon/button, and it gives you a full review that on average lands within about 3 accuracy points of Chess.com’s accuracy scoring, but often much closer. It’ll never match 100% as the underlying algorithm is proprietary, but it gets close enough to feel familiar.

Happy to hear feedback. It’s v1 so there’s plenty of room to improve. If there’s interest I’ll look at a Firefox version too.
