Features

Hi!
I have two features that I think would be helpful.
1) byoyomi - this I think is in the works, but without it, the page does not feel to me like full shogi site yet. It is a feature of every shogi tournament after all, pro or amateur.
2) automatch in the future? Once we have enough players, I like what can be found on some chess sites, of game after game, without caring who is on the other side and need for looking for an opponent. Just straight state prefered game times, and let it find you an opponent?

Best,

That would be great,
Also changing the piece soud so that they dont sound like chess ones,
and more, having the option to desactivate pre-move : i think this feature really kills the "japanese traditionnal" aspect of this game.

@TITREN You can choose a shogi sound set in the menu, where you switch boards and pieces themes.

Byouyomi is something that's being worked on and quickmatch menu is easy to add, once we have enough players.

I do not think the byoyomi can be added up as an alternative, just the increment time controls similar to normal chess are fine.

Byoyomi is quite important in my opinion. I'm a chess player but without byoyomi some shogi players could be afraid to play here.

@abunickabhi Well, the developer says it's being worked on, so apparently it can be added.
