Is setting custom limitations for chess engines possible?
Fairy-Stockfish https://github.com/ianfab/Fairy-Stockfish
- I should really go to bed instead of making these

How can i test this game?
If you want to quickly test it with Fairy-Stockfish, the easiest is to load the variant config at https://fairyground.vercel.app/. A config could e.g. look like below, though I don't know the exact rules of the game, so I only made a minimal example. Another alternative is to load the config in https://github.com/fairy-stockfish/FairyFishGUI.

funAndEasyToUse
The NNUE version does but the non-NNUE version doesn't use numpy. That numpy import is for a neural network based evaluation functions. The base engine still plays at a strong human level and doesn't use numpy to do any of the heavy lifting. It does rely on itertools and collections though.

Python is slow, garbage language!
I'm currently working on a chess bot in C++. The literature and common sense tells you that faster is better, which was my main reason for choosing C++. Then I discovered Sunfish on GitHub that in around 400 lines of Python (without any low level libraries like ctypes) and it still beat me somewhat convincingly. It was definitely fast enough.

Looking for mod friendly python chess program.
https://github.com/thomasahle/sunfish sunfish is a pretty simple one that uses piece square tables for evaluating positions. Wouldn’t be too difficult to change or even tune

Look what I found here. I used to play with it a lot because I have no friends. Do you guys have something similar?
It's from 1990. My father passed it down to me. It works... Uhmm.. idk. There's a proprietary chess engine built in. It says it's around 1700 elo points strong. I am a big noob when it comes to chess engines but if you're interested in learning you can check out sunfish , but (Python) programming skills are required.

The Kilobyte's Gambit: Can you beat 1024 bytes of JavaScript [at chess]?
Incomprehensible scheiße code. I looked around and I like this one because it has "meta-level" definition of movements and liitle bit of strategy. You could implement context-free chess games with varying rules for us congenitally lazy and dull-witted. https://github.com/thomasahle/sunfish/blob/master/sunfish.py

Can you defeat a chess engine written in 1KB of Javascript?
sunfish https://github.com/thomasahle/sunfish (sunfish is the most compact and still understandable code in my opinion)
