Image Description, by This is a shot of my first (personal) game : ZooChess. I've writen it in my spare time (6 month), and all the code is in C++ using OpenGL. A friend designed all the chess-pieces. The engine (called ZooEngine) has some features like bump mapping, water effect, etc.. I draws polygons (45.000 for ZooChess) and the GUI is totally in 3D. Stop ; this is not the aim of a game, this is only a technical approch.
When I was looking for chess game on internet, I only found "beautifull-commercial-games" and "horrible-free-games". That's why I decided to write my own chess game, and I hope I've reach the equation : "beautifull-free-game".
So, you can play on internet or lan (classic host-client management) or you can play in solo mode (a basic AI I've writen...).
This game is totally free, and you can download it here : www.pacome.fr.st
or directly here : http://perso.wanadoo.fr/pacome.danhiez/ZooChess.zip
Have fun !
Pacôme.
