A full-featured chess game built with Python and Pygame, supporting multiple play modes including local multiplayer, LAN multiplayer, and an AI opponent.
- Local Multiplayer — Two players can play on the same computer.
- LAN Multiplayer — Host or join games over a local network using a simple server-client model.
- AI Opponent — Challenge a chess bot:
- Initially written in Python.
- Later ported to a high-performance C++ DLL for better efficiency.
- The AI evaluates board positions and calculates optimal moves.
- Originally implemented in Python, then optimized using a C++ engine accessed via a dynamically linked library (DLL).
- The Python side communicates with the DLL for fast move generation.
- Special thanks to Dexxxon09 for contributions and support on this project.
