Really creative concept and using the mechanics of the chess pieces to complete puzzles is really fun!

You could improve on the game by adding some nice SFX but the visuals are pretty good already!

I really like your approach to the theme :]

The puzzle mechanics really need to be explained better. I might just be stupid and have a short attention span, but I just exited from level 4, because it seemed placing a piece on the green space, just did whatever it wanted to, instead of something predictable

This is a really neat idea. Great job!

Very cool game. My only complaint is that I find it hard to click on the tile in front of the chess piece.

Cute concept and nice art! I would just add some more feedbacks on the ground to make more understandable where i'm actually placing the piece, but overall good job!! :)

Very fun game, I love the strategic puzzles with the tiles transforming you into a different chess pieces.

Very cool concept, it had some clarity issues where I wasn't always entirely sure what I was able to do but figuring it out was also part of the fun. Felt like in terms of theme you switched roles more than reversed them.

As I say though cool idea and something that if was fleshed out could be a very mind bending puzzle game, the pixely models were also a nice addition.

Noice, neat concept of having Chess pieces be thrown in a puzzle game... Adding a little juice when the pieces move / teleport / spawn would make this stand out quite a bit and make it easier to follow along!
Please do check out our little game as well :D

Simple little game. It took me a while to figure out that I had to click to see the highlights! But I love the model of the chess piece. Super cool!  An awesome concept <3
