Echo Chess: chess variant where you are what you eat

Hey HN!

Thanks for all your early support and feedback on this project last year. Kept plugging away on this variant and turned it into a daily chess puzzler for all the chess pros and puzzle fans out there.

A ton of input from the HN community has gone into this. If you'd like to try out the new version, you can play it here (no install, no login required):

Rules: You play White, it's always your turn. You become any piece you capture, and your goal is to clear the board in the fewest number of moves. You can capture your own pieces too. There's no castling, promotions, or en passant.

Happy to answer any questions. All ideas and suggestions are welcome.
