Wow, the idea behind the puzzles is so simple and yet so great! Well done. I wish colors or some other visual clues in game were more recognizable because I sometimes had great difficulty navigating. Anyone who knows a little bit of chess has not had much trouble solving puzzles. But I really enjoyed the game and finished it to the end in one breath.

I really like the idea behind the puzzles. I did experience some bugs, though, where either the pieces didn't move to capture me, or they did but I wasn't even in the way.

Super cool game! Similar in concept to my entry, but totally different in execution. I don't have any *real* complaints, but an undo button would've been nice. I also had a few instances where the rook seemed to ignore me.

thanks for the kind words! An undo button and bug fixes are definitely on my to do list, and also I really liked your submission, and especially the level design.
