I got out of this by guessing the touch position, no factory reset was necessary. I'll try on the Glo and report later.
Something interesting happened when uninstalling. I guessed where to tap for "handle update", after that, the screen rotated again 180° and "install update" appeared in the correct position.
Edit: Just installed the files on the Glo. Everything is good here! I remember some issues with the Aura HD and Sergey's autostart function in previous versions of pbchess. Autostart also flipped the screen 180°, but only on the Aura HD.
Second Edit: Aura 6" works fine too. Thanks a lot tshering! Nice tool to play with
