The first version of this scratch chess engine was released 9.5 months ago and it has made really great progress in that time. The author of this engine, Doruk Sekercioğlu, is also the developer of the Stockfish derivative chess engines Swordfish and Blue Marlin.
I think Black Marlin will be a serious candidate for the 3rd most powerful alpha-beta chess engine in 2023.

Nope. Black Marlin's author is completely unrelated to the low quality Swordfish/Blue Marlin clones. Please attempt to more carefully vet your information before posting such claims here.

"At the beginning I would like to point out that Swordfish and Blue Marlin are not stronger than Stockfish. If you are looking for more Elo you may not be interested. The purpose of these engines is to provide interesting and effective chess games. Swordfish and Blue Marlin are engines based on Stockfish and ideas used in Bluefish by Eelco de Groot.

Swordfish has a reasonable balance between strength and tactical abilities. It still has solid style of playing and achieves good results in test suites. It can be useful for analyzing sharp positions where regular Stockfish can overlook some tactics.
Blue Marlin is more focused on king attack and sacrifices. It provides very sharp and attractive games."

I'm in contact with the author of Black Marlin. They explicitly requested someone tell you they are unaffiliated with Swordfish/Blue Marlin. Please stop spreading misinformation.

Thanks for the information. Black Marlin is a chess engine that I follow closely. It's nice that you and some other talented young friends support Doruk Sekercioğlu.
