Damn I didn't realise the queen piece could be so intimidating. Though I don't get why it's also unbeatable. This is a really good game by the way.
Thanks a lot :)
We tried to deviate on some chess rules. Some pieces move with you, some later. All to give more variability to the game, sacrificing a few conventions. It shall remind of chess, but not be the same.
Really neat game! I included it in my GMTK Game Jam 2019 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)
Good job!
The game is very nice, I particularly like the design.
Good job, my personal favorite for this jam. I like the visual, the gameplay everything fits.
I really enjoyed playing it. So many levels for a game jam game!
thanks!!
We used a modular design. I personally focused a lot on programming interaction, so that once we had a few characters and block, it was kinda easy to build levels!
That was fun, the art style reminded me of Don't Starve, was that intentional?
Still, I'm not a fan of chess but this feels completely different from chess, especially when the platforms started shifting around.
mmh, about the art style, it wasn't intentional I guess. Maybe it's the 2d mixed with 3d that is giving this feeling. I should ask the artist and then reply to you ahahaha. You are not the first one pointing this out! In the future we might consider going more on that style!
I love that style, so yeah maybe in future it would be good to look into it.
Great game! The artstyle is unique and super cool. I like the concept of this game , the mix of chess and puzzles have well done. It was fun to play , it would be great to see a complete version of this game.
Nice job!!
Very interesting idea! Definetely potential for a full game here! The artwork was unique, polished and fit perfectly the game! The level design was really smart, teaching us how to play tour game very smartly! Great job to you!
I Would aprecciate if you could check mine out too! Or not, no pressure...
thanks :D
As soon as I get home I'll rate yours!
Kudos to all you jammer who made a variation of chess! I LOVE YOUR ARTWORK! Its so clean and polished! Each piece has a ton of charm. Gameplay is fun and smooth. Challenging levels never felt ridiculous. Really great stuff overall!
Would love if you could check mine out too! Or not, no pressure ;) https://itch.io/jam/gmtk-2019/rate/462672?after=20#post-876644
thanks :D
As soon as I get home I'll rate yours!
Nice cute art with full of charm . Quite tricky game and queen is kinda scary lol
We were also thinking about making a chess game with only 1 piece but couldn't really do something with it. Glad that you were able to make a fun puzzle game out of it!
This is brillant! Really! I don't have much to say!
- The main character is cute and represents the knight chess very well.
- Love the way the others chess pieces became the enemies of the game.
- The level design is soooo coool.
I hope you will get featured in video.
Great job! :)
Thanks a lot!!
I hope for you too to get featured :)
Very unique game with cool mechanics and a nice artstyle! Also like the animations and game feel :)
Really like the idea of adding the queen as an adversarial piece and using pawns as, well, pawns. If you expand this idea in the future, I'd love to see more chess piece types and possibly larger levels.
love chess games, good job!
Wow, this game is so amazing! So polished, so fun to play! Really great proof that you don't need much time to do something spectacular :).
I really liked the game.
Levels are made very well, the complexity gradually increases. The first levels can be considered a tutorial. The animations and design are just great. And the idea itself is simple but excellent in execution.
I will be happy if you could also check our game: https://itch.io/jam/gmtk-2019/rate/460954

Glad to hear that you liked it that much! We are probably going to work on a full version after this jam!
