Destroy my game : Chess Surprise Unlimited

Hello guys, looking for feedback / suggestions to a game (MVP version) I built.

It’s a chess game with a lil twist. You think you are good at chess? Try the insane challenge of going against 9 Queens! More other challenges coming.
Also, if you would like more variety, you can take a photo of your surrounding to customize the chessboard.

The game was built on Python-Flask / PhaseJS stack. Replit Agent helped me to cut down the devt time by 80%. Cost of Agent usage less than $200. Coming from a Product Manager x Product Designer background, I also appreciate the Replit Agent helping me to heavy-lift the deployment, devops, and security patching. Things which give me hairy night, usually. But now I can farm them out to the Replit Agent.

I enjoyed the game until I couldn’t figure out if what I was moving was the Queen or King. There’s a cross on the top of both. The red team seems to have easier to identify pieces. Well, I figured the rounded crown was the queen, but it wouldn’t let me move like a queen, only a king (one space), so I tried the one on the left, and it seemed that it would allow me to castle or move ahead one… but is this the king or queen? I think it’s the king because of the shape. Anyway, couldn’t pass this point because queen wasn’t allowed to move more than one space. I would have played to the end because it was easy to get into.

Appears it was just hard to tell which was which (king vs queen) because I finished the game and all the pieces moved as they should.

Thanks for the comment, @paul488
It’s a good point - keen eye for details :+1:
Let me polish the piece design a lil bit.

*NB: I have also made an update to the game. For people who wanna go for insane challenge, now they can play against 9 AI Queens! I tried it and almost got my cortisol level over the top :sweat_smile:

Right… I can’t win with one queen on the opposing side. Ain’t gonna happen. :smiley:
