Building things around problems that interest me.

I've always enjoyed chess, so why not build an engine to play for me?

I set out to build a chess engine in 2021, using Unity Engine and C#, managing to create very poor chess engine. Only being able to analyse a few hundred positions a second, it could barely look a few moves into the future and wouldn't be competitive against even the weakest human players.

Years later and lots of reading, Stickshark was born. Using a combination of many optimisation techniques, it's now able to analyse millions of positions a second, often analysing 20+ moves into the future for critical lines.

Stickshark is always online on Lichess, feel free to challenge it anytime!
