Full description

Welcome to CheckTastic, a delightful Checkers game for the open Meshtastic network! If you've played Checkers, then you'll feel right at home here. The purpose of this app is to demonstrate that the underlying low-bandwidth, long-range communications provided by LoRa can be used for more than just texting - they can make gaming more fun and interactive. And this is just the beginning; we have many more exciting features in store. At SpecFive, we're dedicated to making mesh networks more practical, enjoyable, and user-friendly. This app marks the first step in that direction. While the concept, game logic, and user interface are entirely our creation, we owe a debt of gratitude to the existing Meshtastic app, available under GPL, which enabled us to integrate protocol connectivity and associated tasks seamlessly. In the spirit of open-source collaboration, we're also releasing this app under GPL. If you use any part of this code, please ensure that you: 1) Retain acknowledgment to SpecFive.com and 2) Include a link to our online store within your application's user interface. This link is included as part of this application's source code. To learn more about our efforts to make mesh networks more practical and enjoyable, visit us at specfive.com

What's new

Welcome to CheckTastic, the first Checkers game for the open Meshtastic network! Enjoy classic Checkers with low-bandwidth, long-range LoRa technology. CheckTastic showcases innovative mesh network use beyond texting. Brought to you by SpecFive, this app is GPL-licensed, and we thank the Meshtastic community for their support. Visit specfive.com for more. Enjoy the game and explore the future of mesh networking!
