I made a chess game for DOS

Not bad at all. Only the graphic could be better - the color dithering everywhere noticeably reduces the esthetic experience.

And compared to VGA's mode 13h, it only needs 32000 bytes for the double buffer, which saves memory for other things. Maybe try playing it on a CRT?

	I added some customization options. Now the colors can be changed.
