I didn't realize what stacking did until a few turns in, but it seemed like an interesting idea. I always like when people take a classic game and add a rule change or two to really shake it up. It is tough to see how much it would change or if the change is good without playing it a bunch but it's a neat idea for sure.

I liked the characters reacting to taking pieces, that adds some personality. I might keep them on the board at all times though, that way you could have them react to each move and also to who was winning overall.

I also think that making the board taller and/or adding bouncing off the wall if you had more than one movement might be cool additions.

Anyway great job and congrats on finishing!

Muhahahaha!

Love the art style and the sounds. The game was really enjoyable and smooth. I like the concept of stacking pieces.

It took me a bit to realise the pieces stack.

Congrats on submitting!

The game was fun to play. I really like the character sprites and the music was well fitted. Maybe add some sort of tutorial, to better explain the rules of this game. Anyway I really enjoyed playing it. 

Good game!

Loved the goofy laughs and overall wacky theme. A quick tutorial on the stacking mechanic would have been nice, I didn't realize that was a possibility until the AI did it. Great work!

Cute simple game, oh Canada !!!

This game was really  fun to play locally! The AI was a bit boring as they moved completely randomly but when you played it with friends locally it was really enjoyable. The art was good and made the game look polished along with the sound effects and music, they all made the game seem very completed and polished by the end of the jam. One criticism though would maybe to have a way of explaining the functions of stacking the pieces and what they did because I didn't really realize for a large portion of the first game that I played, also maybe have more of a reason to stack the pieces as it ended up providing more of a disadvantage. Other than that this game was very enjoyable and if you could check out my game and leave some feedback that would also be much appreciated. I wish you well with your further game dev adventures!

Interesting ideas! Also, the game is pretty complete and well-polished, and the artwork and SFX are quite good. Well done!

By the way, I encountered an issue with the AI: When the AI player has no available move next turn(the AI has only one pawn left and it's completely blocked by my pawns), the game will stop running and crash. Hope you can look into this problem.

Anyway, I really like this game. Nice job for a 48h work! Had a lot of fun!

I liked the way how you turned checkers, also added AI. Great job!

A pretty fun take on checkers. I didn't understood it at first, but when i realized i could combine the pieces, then it felt amazing to combine and destroy the opposition.  The occasional portraits that come while you are playing also adds to the presentation. Pretty simple, but also pretty good. I can't wait to play it with other people.

I am impressed with this one. Not only you did the art during the jam, you also made a (mostly) functional AI for the game.

This checkers variant is fun to play and adds quite a depth to the game. I searched a bit to see if it already exists and found nothing, so congratulations for the idea!

The game is pretty much complete, the only thing I could say that is missing would be online play, but thats a low blow for a jam game.

Good job!

Wow, love how you adapted an existing board game, changing how you need to strategize. Also both graphics and music gave the game a Looney Tunes tone that fits perfectly with the game. This might be one of my favorite entries!

This twist make the original game a lot more fun ! Great idea !

This version of checkers is way more fun! Nicely done!

This is a really nice twist on checkers. I like the idea of building pieces up but that being a risk because it means one move can take more. Adds a lot of depth. 

The added stacking rule makes the game more strategic choice, such as more moves or more piece. Although the AI miss obvious opportunity and hardly will go offensive mode, a perfect practice for beginner to understand the rules. And having 2P is a fun choice to play with friends.

Suggestion for improvement

- Giving the player a choice to choose a more difficult AI could give this game more replay value. (example: easy, medium, hard AI for the player to choose so that they can challenge or improve themselves).

Interesting change to the classic checkers ^^

Nice twist on the classic checkers game.

I actually enjoyed this!

really liked the new approach for the checkers game, good job! =) had a good time playing it
the ai is a lil bugged but I am impressed that you even coded the ai in the jam timeframe.
