Thanks for everyone who played, rated, and/or approved my first BGA game implementation!

How difficult would it be to implement the forbidden moves rules of three and three, four and four, and overlines (where overlines are forbidden rather than simply not a win) for a Ninuki-Renju variant of Pente? Would be an interesting addition to the already great implementation of all the variants here.
I would also like to see a confirm button for moves. It's somewhat easy to misclick a move you didn't mean to make, especially on mobile. I also wonder about a more immediately identifiable way of determining which color you are to swap. I had to look at it for awhile to determine which one I was.

Since I replied some of these questions elsewhere I'll link the reply:

Also, you can enable confirmation from player preference panel:

For swap, there are only 2 colors in swap openings... So I don't think it's necessary.
Thanks for playing my implementation
