Cool!

Great work! How long did this take you to make?

 

I had to click "Undo" 3 times to beat it...

@JKSH

 

How long did this take you to make?
approximately four months! One month before getting the first results.

But there is way to do much better!
The evaluation function is imperfect, improve it  would increase significantly the game level. for example, the King safety is not taken into account. (not yet)
I'm working on that! (sorry for my bad english, i try to do my best)

a lot of research and work ... but above all, a lot of fun.
