How close? Close enough for us to be getting excited! We’re aiming for release some time in October 2009 (depending on Apple’s approval process).

We’ve spent the last few months working hard, trying to make the best possible chess app for the iPhone. Here are the main things we’ve been concentrating on:

• Online multiplayer against real people
• Lots of opponents to choose from (at all skill levels)
• Powerful matchmaking
• Strong AI opponents
• Keep track of your rating / ranking
• Simple interface and beautiful graphics

It’s gonna be a massive step up from the previous version, in fact in lots of ways it’s almost like a whole new app. Keep an eye on this blog for updates!

Over the next few weeks we’ll be posting some insights into the dev process.
Keep an eye out if you’re interested in how we built the app
