I would wait for the official release to get one of these. I funded the original Chessup board on kickstarter and the project was delayed almost a year. After it shipped late, the app crashed constantly, the connection to the board was glitchy, and there was little development from the team to fix. Then they removed the "training" feature that was "in work" on the Android version of the app, which was why I wanted one in the first place, with no updates on when they will release this feature what was originally promised in the kickstarter.

@MrPotatoShed Ай бұрын
Yeah, after reading about these issues with the first board, I decided not to jump on the Kickstarter. The problem with Kickstarter rewards is that there are no refunds if you're not happy with the final product. For a $200+ electronic device, that's just not a risk I'm willing to take

@MrPotatoShed
@MrPotatoShed Ай бұрын
@@RoryODonnellIsSoAwesome certainly! I agree. That's exactly why I'm very wary of backing Kickstarters. I have had some great experiences with Kickstarter projects, but I've had some bad ones too. I don't blame the creators of these projects--they tried their best and it just didn't work. But while the ChessUp 2 looks awesome and I think I'd love it, it's at a price where I'd rather wait and see if they succeed rather than bear a part of that innovation risk myself.

If someone made this exact same thing, but with the pieces being magnetised to the board in a way where the board could move the pieces on its own instead you moving them for the opponent would be absolutely incredible. And the only time you'd need to move the pieces is if a piece is obstructing the moving piece from sliding to its new position so you'd have to manually take it there. That wouldn't bother me
@microwavecoffee
@microwavecoffee 24 күн бұрын
I think even auto knight moves can be engineered, but that would require the diameter of each chess piece to be at most 1/2 of the side length of the grid square, and players would need to adjust pieces precisely or the board should have automatic magnetic adjust.

@Jeppelelle
@Jeppelelle Ай бұрын
Yeah, i agree, but there is so many cases that would make it hard, like moving a Knight from g1 to f3 in an opening, would have to move a Pawn out of the way first, then move the Knight, then move the Pawn back to it's original position, many other structures that would require moving secondary pieces away first to be able to move the intended one, could be done but how much time would that waste in a 3m blitz?
