How does your game fit the theme?
The roles of the chess pieces in the board are reversed. The "valuable" pieces like queen, king and rooks now protect the "expendable" ones (pawns). The game is centered around protecting and capturing pawns while sacrificing kings and queens :)

Cool idea, I might actually try it on a real chessboard against a person sometime. How much of the AI were you able to program? Is it random or are they making some decisions?
Thanks! For the AI I used this tutorial:
However, I was able to implement a one-move ahead algorithm only because of time.
Basically it tries to capture the piece with most material value it can, if not it moves one random piece. A two-move ahead algorithm makes surprisingly good movements already.
