As a chess player myself, I was very interested in the concept of this game. I'm amazed by what you have managed to create in a week; this is a very polished game that could very well be sold as a commercial product if there were a few more levels.
The whole experience was engaging and never frustrating, as if I was ever about to give up I would have one more go and end up finding the solution. I don't have much experience with chess puzzles, but I was familiar with these knight puzzles and I only one that I found slightly hard was the final puzzle, which makes sense. Even so, thanks to the high quality of the game I enjoyed the whole experience.
I do have one piece of feedback though: When I checked the king in the final puzzle, the bishop simply kept moving. Illegal move :P

Thank you so much!! I am planning to expand on the game and add some levels too -I didn't even get to add the queen who was going to be a sort of boss level too (I had her sprite made up -you can see it in the opening sequence -but didn't have the time to implement her)
Also, lmfao crap! You're right! I completely forgot about check/check mate rules -I blame the jam time crunch! xD Admittedly, there isn't much AI in this game but I may expand on that too and add that logic into finished version if it still feels fun! Thanks again for your awesome comment and feedback! :D
