Short but works well.

I was confused in the first time because my king always died, maybe it would be cool to add something to let the player understand easier 😅
This stills a nice game for 3h of development 👍

Cool game, seems like a fun way to learn about hitboxes and melee attacks. Nice quick game, but still is a lot of fun!

I think you're onto something here, but some balancing needs to be made. Either you win almost instantly or your army gets devoured and then there's no chance. Maybe simply having more hp on both sides and having rooks spawn on timer would do wonders!

You meet theme of the Jam. Animation is nice, that little delay when the mouse moves, I really liked that! But in all my tries, the queen spawned as first opponent, so it’s an autowin every 3 seconds or so. Keep on dev’ing - you’ll advance and you will get better week by week!
