I've tested it out with a hotseat player!
Here are my thoughts:
# Improvements over the current version
- The spectator feature is broken in the current version, but works properly in the new version.
- Crashes are much less frequent.
# Regressions compared to the current version
- Once one has selected a checker, switching to a different one requires clicking the Cancel button first, which is unnecessarily cumbersome.
- The clickable area for selecting a checker's destination is too small. I'd like the entire point (column) to be clickable.
- It's no longer possible to combine the values of the two dice to move a checker in a single action.
- There is no option to forfeit other than conceding a single point.
- Checker stacks can grow vertically without limit. I'd like stacks of six or more checkers to be displayed in a more compact way.
- Even after both players have borne at least one checker, forfeiting still requires the opponent's approval.
- The initial board setup animation takes too long.
# Additional improvements I'd like to see in the new version
- The ability to undo individual checker moves, rather than having to undo all moves made during the current turn.
Thanks for all your efforts on the development!
