Thanks for the feedback! I admit removal of required registration is one of the problems I am looking to solve. The security needs to be there to prevent cheating. The email is optional so you can just makes something up for username & password, but I do think it is too much friction for first-timers.
As per ruleset, it is displayed on the home page but I could do a better job of organizing it and providing some samples/visuals. Seeing a sample game after it's been played would just look like the worst game of chess you've ever seen, so without the context it might be confusing. I could show a sample of live play from one player's perspective.
I also started writing a strategy guide. Positional and tactical gameplay is drastically different than regular chess.
The game has a small community of players. The next stage will be to add tournament level play, and also consider adding variants for games other than chess (kriegammon?)
Monetization would be through buy-in prize tournaments where a small percentage is kept for the host.
