| You love chess. You love Maemo and its devices. You believe they fit so well... yet you haven't found a convincing implementation of a chess game for Maemo. '''Miniature''' to the rescue!
| | {{Miniature}} |
|
| |
|
| == The concept ==
| | '''We are moving to http://miniature-chess.org/''' |
| Miniature is a chess board that goes always with you, ready to let you play and learn wherever you go.
| |
| | |
| * The main use case is playing online against other players at http://freechess.org (FICS)
| |
| * Now imagine that you can also chat with the other player.
| |
| * Learning is important: watch games live, review stored games and also process offline the lessons offered at FICS.
| |
| * Play P2P games against other players next to you or in your Contacts.
| |
| * And not only regular chess. See also Antichess, Chess960...
| |
| | |
| Miniature is based on Qt, targets Maemo as primary platform and plans to have ports for Symbian, Windows Mobile and desktop OSs (Linux, Windows, Mac).
| |
| | |
| == Features ==
| |
| None for real users yet. Miniature is just few days old and we are defining the features of the first relase.
| |
| | |
| Check [[Miniature/Development]] to follow the latest status and to get involved.
| |
| | |
| == Screenshots ==
| |
| This is how the real application looks like, while being still under very initial and heavy development. Check the [[Miniature/Development#Mockups|mockups]] in order to see how things should look like in the future.
