Very simple and straightforward game, well executed too. I would have loved to se the theme more in the mechanics of the game though
My king is dead 9 times. First time because I had no idea what to do, the other times it was because the rest of the board went crazy ! Nice little game, would be better with sounds or music. It was quite fun to play this non-chess game.
I am fascinated by how creative people can completely destroy the games and concepts we all know. :)
Hilarious game. I wish it had some music! Also, I found a spot where I like almost never had to move, so the game got a little repetitive. Nice work overall!
Funniest chess game I've ever played. The intro sequence is a really nice touch. Enemy attacks are clear and I was never confused as to what I had to do. Trying to dodge attack is fun and gets difficult enough to keep things exciting. Nice job!
I recently started playing chess and this was a game that caught my eye. Great presentation! The addition of the anti camp taught me a lot more hahah, for eg I had no Idea diagonal moves were a thing until I played with it. My high score was 69, needless to say I had to stop there.
Check out my game too when you have the chance :D https://itch.io/jam/gmtk-2020/rate/695900
Really cool concept! Also like the anti-camp option! :)
try my game if you'd like (itch isn't displaying my game that i worked on) :https://itch.io/jam/gmtk-2020/rate/696391
Very fun game and not exactly what I expected :)
Very cool idea with the Anti-Camp double points too.
One thing that I would like to see here would be that the King has the actual King's moveset, so Up-Right Up-Left Down-Left Down-Right added to the moveset. That would give it more flavour.
Other than that it was quite fun and felt like a boss battle in some kind of old-school game :D
