Minishogi as a variant

Hello everyone,

I know that Lishogi is still in its beta, but when it is time, I'd really like to see Minishogi as a variant.
I find it to be the most interesting variant and the games are comparatively short, which I very much enjoy in board games.

Thanks for your time reading my way-to-early request.

Based on the roadmap to v1.0, it might take a while.

In the meantime, you can play at www.pychess.org though!

@CouchTomato
This there a document or is this roadmap just imaginary?

Looks like there’s an “after beta” tag on the issue on GitHub. Might take a while. github.com/WandererXII/lishogi/issues/108

The roadmap is posted on the Discord channel

I love playing minishogi a lot, and also kyotoshogi. I play it on pychess. It would be cool if it is included in lishogi's roadmap and added in a few months or so.

@abunickabhi What's that?

I implemented mini-shogi on telnet fiss.mooo.com port 5000 although the coordinates and UI leave much to be desired.

Pychess supports shogi variants and it looks like it's based on lichess. Is it possible to implement their code on lishogi?

#9 pychess is written in python, lishogi/lichess are written in scala/js/ts (scala primarily).
