How does your game fit the theme?
I thought it would be cool to think about how a game of Chess could be made "out of control" and what I came up with was a game of Chess but as a roguelike, and where the piece you control keeps changing.

this is alot of fun and a good idea
Really fun! Such a good concept. The only little thing I would change is the pond. There is no advantage to have this piece. Its just a worst king. Other than that, its one of the best games I played in this jam!
Awesome! Roguelike chess is exactly what I needed in my life.
Awesome idea! Also visuals are very clean and nice! As for the feedback - I'd chose different symbol for showing available moves. I was a little confused at first, a cross associates something forbidden. But that's only nitpicking, great game!
Just wow, this game has a really neat idea and develops it well! I find it incredible that all the development was done in 48 hours :)
Thanks :)
This was really fun! The only thing I found myself wanting was to see more of the board, but that doesn't detract at all from the game, to be honest.
Thank you! You can see more of the board by pressing C, if you weren't already doing that
I should have mentioned that I was. I guess my comment really concerns rooks, bishops, and the queen, because sometimes the chest I want is underneath the item menu and so I can't get to it in one turn. Again, this didn't honestly detract from the game, though, since it so rarely happened anyway.
I believe this one of the games that I played the most before rating, great idea and great implementation. Great work!
I really like the concept! I feel like you could do more with the mechanic of switching pieces rather than just a turn timer, but overall it's pretty cool!
strong 5/5
Love the concept, very unique and a great application of the theme. The sound and visuals perfectly finish the game! Overall a great idle game to play!
