What an entry! I will always respect anyone who manages to put an opening cutscene together in time for a gamejam.
The gameplay concept is actually incredibly cool - though me being a chess nerd probably helps! Reframing the objective of chess, and letting you make use of different piece's abilities - you really squeezed everything out of that idea to create a unique game. The presentation was really clean too - not too in your face, but it communicated everything it needed to very clearly, while generally being pleasant to look at. Excellent direction!
Unexpectedly strong vibes on the final level too - a little chess puzzle game shouldn't be able to instill such emotion in me!
