Alright. I have now completed the very first aim.

You can play chess. Well, kinda. You can't choose the piece for promotion (promotion is when a pawn reaches the rearmost enemy line and is exchanged to another piece), pieces are displayed as cuboids and you can only play it in "hotseat", I mean it doesn't work over LAN. But, hey, pretty good for 2 weeks, isn't it?

So here it is: The first official screenshot of MechaChess.
