Early beta version of online chess game. Fully playable but lacks many features I originally wanted to implement.

Disclaimer: game uses free versions of mongolab database and heroku hosting. There might be downtimes. If you can't play, please comeback later.

Features:

• Account based, you have to register before playing. Simply you have to choose login and password (data stored in database is encrypted, therefore safe)
• Game data is stored in database. During game, you can leave anytime you want and resume later.
• You can have max four games active simultaneously.
• During game you can replay any past move - simply click on appriopiate message on right side of screen.
• Tested and working in newest version of Chrome, FireFox, Edge and Opera (there might be minor styling differences though). Not designed for mobile.

Things left to do:

• Implement castling.
• Implement "check" and "check mate" condition (right now game ends when any king figure is captured).
• Implement draw condition.
• Implement pawn to queen promotion.
• Implement user statistics.
• Better styling (right now styles are somewhat rudimentary).
• Further styling (implement styled scrollbars working in all browsers).
• Error handling.
