1. Go here and follow the instructions:
https://supertestnet.github.io/bitcoin-chess/bitcoin-chess.html

2. You'll need to give your pubkey to the other player and enter their pubkey when they give it to you.

3. You'll also need some testnet coins.

4. Get some here:

About 10,000 sats should be enough for a full game of chess.

🤷 What's next?

Not sure. Maybe I'll fix the game's bugs, maybe I'll implement it inside a lightning channel, maybe I'll just let it sit here. People who play it on testnet can learn a thing or two about programming with bitcoin and that's the main thing I want. It's a brain building tool, after all, and that's what chess was always meant to be.
