Kung Fu Chess launched on September 21, 2019 with 140 votes, #194 of 3,296 launches that month and more than 95% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 7 years on.
In plain words
Kung Fu Chess is a turn-based strategy game with a twist: all pieces move simultaneously in real-time instead of alternating turns. Players control traditional chess pieces that fight across the board, combining tactical planning with quick reflexes. The game is available through its GitHub repository. It's designed for anyone interested in a faster-paced alternative to conventional chess that emphasizes simultaneous action and immediate decision-making.

It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
