Hey there! I just finished a youtube video explaining our donut chess in detail: https://youtu.be/iRcfHCPFgkM

So I thought it'd be cool to show it off here too- it can be played around with at mchess.io/donut - you can also set up an AI or online game on the site.

This is all indie dev work from a couple friends and myself.

Thanks for sharing!

Rotating the torus eventually hits singularities and I cannot continue the rotation. Maybe use a different mechanism for rotations that do not suffer from "gimbal lock"?

Would also be nice to rotate the torus along the circular axis. That is, rotate pieces/rows from inside the doughnut hole to the outside.
