Dude the game has some annoying bugs, I don t know if some of them are intended but either way most of them are 100% bugs. ( The " maybe intended ones: When Hectie steps on a stun tile, it doesn t let you use your pieces to capture him, I don t know why. the 100% bug one is swap king with pawn thing but now instead of the game not letting you capture hectie, the game just straight off freezes and you can t make any move with any character. Maybe you re aware of those issues but either way the game has bugs and I thought it would be better if I let you know about them. Pretty cool game though
Not being able to capture kings is intended, you are meant to prevent Hectie from being able to make valid moves rather than make a direct capture. In most cases where Hectie is stunned and is threatened by one of your pieces, the game ends as a checkmate. The other issue that you're describing is probably an overlooked bug. My guess is that I forgot to make a "self-checkmate" check after a card is played, and you're in a position where Kate is threatened and can't make a valid move. I do hope to revisit this game at some point to make a small patch that adds a title screen, a few dialogue events, and fixes bugs, but I don't know when I'll have time, I've got some busy months ahead.
Charmers is mostly completed, but there is a chance of a small update coming in the future. It would probably just add text scenes for normal captures that don't have any, a proper title screen, and maybe some tutorials or quality of life features. In terms of animated events and other big things, the game is done, I don't think there's too much of a reason to wait for new additions.
