There is a Developer's Guide and several tutorials for programming a game for Game Courier. For this particular game, you could probably start with the code for Extra Move Chess or Balanced Marseillais Chess and make some modifications for your game. I think the latter may be more similar to your game. However, if you have no experience programming, it could be tricky to do it just right. Barring that, it's also possible to create an unprogrammed version of your game. This will not enforce rules or display legal moves, but it will let people play in an over-the-board kind of way, as you would with a physical set.
Over a thousand games are available for Game Courier, and I certainly did not program or personally approve of all of them. People are using Game Courier to play games I've never heard of and do not know how to play. One thing that increases the status of a game here is if someone programs it for Game Courier and people start playing it here, and inventors are free to program their own games if they are able to.
