As a chess fan, this was frustrating. On like the second move they took my queen, but after a few more moves, they didn't move out of check, so I won. Interesting take on the theme though and on chess. If you want to see some more chaotic chess games, this one is really fun and chaotic: http://reallybadchess.com/

In what way does your game fit the theme?
My game is a chess game in which the units can refuse to follow the player's commands. The pieces might do as they are told or they might act randomly (like moving in the opposite direction or sparing the life of the units they were told to attack). The random effects make the game really chaotic and fun for casual play.
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
I wrote all of the code myself.
I did not create any of the assets. All of the assets where free assets available on itch.io.
