Thanks very much! Yes, I agree that SFX & animations would make it a lot more enjoyable!
Yes, you technically beat the game. However, that is probably a bug, as it’s supposed to show when you defeated the king haha. For some reason, I have some small bugs that occur in battle that I couldn’t fix. I think it’s due to manually making some physics calculations in the battle (in Godot, I need to switch to using RigidBody2D instead of CharacterBody2D), which causes a piece to disappear but not be reported as dead – the king piece is probably just outside of the world.
Unrelated, on the chess board, I also had some bug once where the enemy rook went through my pawn to attack another piece. I’ve never been able to recreate it again though.
