I truly inspired, simple game. There were lots of moments that felt "like chess" where you were trying to figure out how to get a piece without leaving your piece vulnerable. The music was also very chill and sound effects and art were all great. Minor thing is it took me way too long to realize how to change what piece I was (trying to beat second level as a pawn was tough haha)

Very clever take on chess mechanics, I enjoyed it.

My Favorite Game so far. It took me a bit to realize, that I can become a diffrent piece, but I had lot's of fun.

I thought this was pretty fun, the dialog gave me a chuckle and the art style might be simple but it looked good, id play this again if it had more levels. thanks

thanks! Yeah, honestly we spent most of the week working on mechanics and put most of the levels together in the final day resulting in a minimal experience to unlock all the pieces.

We may continue supporting and flesh out a few more scenes 🙂

I like the concept but I don't like to have to click case by case, my poor finger :(

You can unlock other pieces to play as that move much farther, appreciate the feedback though and is definitely something we thought about
