I have been reading your reviews and feedback, and today I'm already shipping the first patch based on this feedback

  • A German player pointed out that the AI chat messages were still in English , all 32 AI personalities now speak German! Danke for the feedback!

  • The same review flagged the analysis marking a "missed capture" even when a piece was already captured, fixed!

  • We've also polished the journey dashboard to fit perfectly across all common screen resolutions, to decerease the amount of scrollbars.

This is just the beginning. We have a lot more planned and your feedback is what drives the priority list. Keep it coming, reviews, bug reports, feature requests, all of it.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed analysis incorrectly flagging "missed capture" when the player already captured a piece

  • Fixed journey dashboard not fitting properly on all screen resolutions — tested and verified on 1920x1080, 1366x768, 1536x864, 1280x720 and 2560x1440 with zero scrollbars

Improvements

  • Journey track scrollbar is now always visible with a purple theme, grows on hover for easier navigation
