I think there is stalemate, but nut sure. Similar to rabbitoids position:
White: Ka1, Na7, Nb8, pawn b6
Black: Ka8
After white's turn moving the pawn from b6 to b7. Black has no more moves, because no move is allowed which would explode the own king.
At Fics it would be 1-0, because there is check and checkmate, but I think at brainking it is 1/5-1/5, but not sure.

Other example:
Black: Kc8
White: Kc6, pawn c7
It's black's turn. At Fics it would be a draw, because of the checkrule there. At brainking is no check, so the black king can still move where he wants, except c7. ;)
