Hello, yes, just recently this year I started to work on rebuilding the app, to add an online mode, with a classification system.
If you want to play on the board you made, it is possible to play offline on the current app, in the android store

@KevinBorg: What do you mean by "build me a chess variant"? There exist many PC programs that can be easily configured to play this (e.g. Fairy-Max, Nebiyu, Sjaak II, using WinBoard as GUI).
Don't need to go anywhere. Go to the 4 Players chess, you can create any board you like and want in minutes. For example, here is a recent variant called Widescreen although If I was to make it, I would make a 2.0 version with a different pieces setting :
Hi. I want to create my variant to be online on your server. Can i ?
So, i and other online user can enjoy this variant. Thank's
I just made a new variant based on the Widescreen posted above, which seems to be interesting. Will start playing it later today, included antichess style too I'm thinking calling it "The Cave" or "Double Trouble" Anyone interested to play this variant?
Played a few games already, it's like Chess on Steroids. Adding KOTH for the standard game, but not for antichess. Loaded, but fun
That's great!
But on chess.com for example, I want to make a variant where pieces move in a variety of ways that we can customize... of ways... We need a better tool for this!

You can only choose among a few predefined settings. You can't even control castling rules as you want or, for example, say one side wins/loses if they capture a given piece.
Wabbidom Chess
⠀ The objective of the game is to “checkmate” any opponent piece (i.e. put a piece under an attack that it can not escape from), except an unpromoted pawn.
⠀ A piece does not have to escape a threat of being captured and may be captured on a future turn. However, if one of a player' pieces can not escape a threat, that player loses the game immediately. Kings are allowed to move to a square under attack and may be captured. Pawns may be promoted to kings. Castling and en passant are not allowed.
Im developing an app where you can create your own custom boards, and play them.
I have only been developing the app for 2-3 weeks, so its in a very very early state. Currently there is only offline mode, and the board editor doesn't have many features, neither does the game screen itself. Currently, the board tiles can be edited, pawn ascension tiles can be placed, and you can place whatever pieces you want (only one king per color currently).
In the future, I plan to add different special tiles, like teletransportation tiles (so that something like the SER board can be played), customizable piece movement, and of course ONLINE SUPPORT that is what im currently working on. After I finish with the online support, I will continue making it possible to create the alredy existing and kinda famous variants of chess, to open even more possibilities for the user.

Here is the google play link (its called Sandbox Chess):
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hornedhorn.sandboxchess
Please be gentle with the reviews its still in a very early developement state. (Not even classic chess is 100% playable currently, castle through check is possible, no material tie/50 movement with no advance tie or 3 equal moves tie isnt detected, and en passant move isnt possible, however these are things that I forgot/didnt even know existed (en pasant move) to add and will soon be in the app )
And Im sorry if this kind of post that is advertising my app in some way isnt wanted here, just delete it if this is the case, its just that if I don't find people who like my app here here, I probably won't find anywhere.
Note: I am very bad at chess, I started getting interested in it some time before I started developing this app, but Im learning
