Chess Game + Engine

This is a chess game and engine written in Java. Note that this is a work in progress and is not finished yet. There are a lot of things that need to be done. If you want to help, feel free to do so. I'm still learning new things and trying to play better chess too :)

More info

I am aware that there are more efficient ways to program a chess engine. I am not trying to make the most efficient chess engine, but rather a chess engine that I made myself. I am also aware that there are a lot of bugs and glitches and that the code is not very clean.

Done

• Add a chess engine
• Multiple algorithms for the engine
• You can implement your own algorithm
• Save and load games (FEN and PGN formats)
• Fix weird pawn glitch (A file to H file)
• UCI protocol

Need to do

• Add a GUI
• Add castling
• Add en passant
• Add pawn promotion to other pieces than queen
• Add a timer
• Add a lot of tests

Improvements

• Make the engine faster by using bitboards and other optimizations (see here)
• Use Zobrist hashing to speed up the engine
