This is just incredible to make in a jam time, I found all the UI and tutorialising really clear,. I really hope you keep working on this project after the jam, feels really fresh (especially the Inscryption / buckshot roulette elements). Amazing work, Im actually excited to keep playing. Thanks for Jamming!
Very cool game! The only drawback is the not very clear manual about the enemies) I wish you luck in its development after the jam!
Chess with skill trees! I like "Chess 2: Pawn of the Dead"
love the concept
Game was so good :)
The core concept is very cool! Even though I don't really like chess I had a lot of fun!
Thanks! we tried to make it as accessible to non chess players as we could so its good to hear you enjoyed it
This is so awesome, I had to play it based on the name alone. I really enjoyed the upgrades for the chess pieces. My best run was up to wave 41 but it definitely gets tough when lots of zombies are spawning. Great job on this it's really fun!
i am awful at chess but this game is pretty great :D all i needed to know to play is how each units moves
