Chess engine: Honey Badger 0.2.0 (for Mac and Linux)


Honey Badger is a UCI-compliant chess engine written in Go. Honey Badger is not a complete chess software and requires a UCI-compatible graphical user interface (GUI) to be used comfortably.

Key features include:
- fully compliant UCI interface
- alpha-beta search with iterative deepening
- quiescence search
- oracle (move ordering)
- integrated opening book
- evaluation function combining piece values and positional advantage with game phase knowledge
- transposition table for memoizing search results
- ability to use different search and evaluation strategies with options
- cli mode for quick searches

Future (planned) features:
- better quiescence
- null move pruning
- parallel search
