Wooooooooow!
I dont know what else to say! This is an incredible submission!
Fantastic art, fantastic animation, fantastic use of space, and fantastic filling up of empty space so it doesn't feel empty!
I love that the enemies all feel different and have tougher requirements based on their relative chess value!
Unfortunately I couldn't get any further than the wave after the rook :( So I'm unsure if there's a queen/king piece, but if they exist, I'm sure they're marvelous!
Absolutely near perfect submission. If I had to nitpick one thing, I would say: Be more generous with how easy it is to hit enemies, and to pick up dice (both of these can be fixed by just making the dice hitbox just a tad bigger!)
And finally I'm not sure if you need the mechanic of swapping dice if you run over another, I feel like that messed me up more often than helped me, and it doesn't feel like it's supposed to be an obstacle 😅
Overall, incredible!
