The rotation was little confusing because there is not indicator who's turn it is, that would help a lot I think. I don't have anyone to play it with me though, so I just tested it against myself :)

Would really need to find a friend to play this. Rotating the board like this is an interesting variant of the game. I kinda understand that you did not just slap a dumb bot on this game since it would not be fun, and all the smart chess bots are trained on the classic version anyway.

Cool chess version. Would be great to have some easy bots to play against. I couldn't find anyone to play with T_T

Submitted

Ooh! A spinning chess game. Cool approach to the theme. I imagine it would be pretty fun with two players battling each other. Good job getting it done solo!

Submitted

Cool concept! Definitely a little too easy since we can spin the board infinitely (I won in two moves). But the visuals are great as well!

Submitted

Interesting twist for chess. I would limit the amount of tiles spins to make it more fair, though.

Submitted

actually a really fun interpretation of chess. Unfortunately the knight is absurdly strong in this one compared to any other piece but otherwise really cool and definitely worth exploring this version of chess and refining it

Submitted

Cool idea and I like the visuals! Maybe you could write down the controls somewhere inside? I'd be happy if you also tried our game :3

I'm on a mission to play all the chess themed games in this jam, I thought the concept for this was pretty cool! I do wish there was indication of when someone's in check or some rules to how often the board can be spun during a single team's turn, because that is pretty easily abused.

This is a pretty nice version of chess! Unfortunately, I don't have anyone to play it with though lol

Submitted

Nice game! Too bad I didn't have anybody to play it with, but I'd imagine it'd be super fun!

Submitted

Definitely a unique take on chess which is pretty cool! I suppose it'd be much more fun to play with another player but I do love the concept for a circular chess layout game! An AI you can play against would've been great but overall nice work!

Submitted

This is such a cool concept, and I love the aesthetic! I can see it being more fun with another person instead of with myself, haha

Ay this is such a good spin on normal chess ( pun intended ) However if there was 1v1 online mode or ai mode it would be a BANGER, but being reasonable enough, making this in 7 days is honestly very crazy dude. the art is fun and the mechanics were great!
