This is a unique take on chess I believe

I really like this game. 

Much better played on the PC build as u said.

I would have loved to have some UI to tell me which of my pieces had multiple movements since I kept forgetting or misclassifying them.

also maybe as a difficulty setting maybe add a toggle that tells you where enemy pieces can move for a while so that those who don't play chess or maybe those who aren't familiar with the movement scheme find it easier to start with the game. 


I think this has the potential to be really good given some extra time.

 All in all, really nice and I love the art.

Good job!

"This is very unfinished due to over scoping and literally one person programming so that wasn't fun to deal with"

I feel you ;_;. Even with a second programmer, we waited too late to scale down the project. Good job getting all this done on your own!!!

I love chess, so I am biased.. but I think this is a wonderful idea. I would really like to see this concept after some more development. I also think the aesthetics were really well done.

A good use of the chess rules. Pieces look nice !

I'm glad I tried PC version - makes much more sense and is pretty good. Too bad high scores seems to be not working :(

I initially tried playing the web version and thought it was fun but had some trouble understanding until I installed the PC build and realized how much I was missing and it made much more sense! I really like designs for the pieces and it was a lot of fun planning around my next piece. All this is missing is satisfying sound effects and it'd be perfect!

Fun idea.

This is a neat idea. The art is really cool, but it is a bit hard to tell which piece is which.

Cool idea, and I liked the art!
