Your game needs improvements: 1.) No one would wanna play ur game if ai needs to be bought, at least if youre locking them base it on "beat to unlock" 2.) People might start playing if you do my suggestion #1 and PvP won't be as barren because I tried to find a game but no one is there also cant even tell if the room is available when I create a game

Hello! Thanks for you comment. Could you try to decrease the graphic quality or use just a 2D-mode? Сlick on the gear icon in the top right corner on the main menu. As for skins, all effects are available just in a 3D-mode, all other, like pieces, boards and backgrounds you can preview.
