Really, really polished game which is fun to play! I did not like the 3D view, maybe i missed rotate/ pan option. The Normal AI felt stupid sometimes, blundering mate in 2.

Haha I'm so bad I kept losing and losing... Still this is a pretty great idea, I guess chess players might find a great challenge with it! The art and UI are really neat!
pretty cool to see someone with similar game idea lol, good stuff. very well made.
Loved the mechanics, it's chess puzzles with a twist. My main complaint is that sometimes pieces were hard to distinguish when placed in front of another, many times I mistook the enemy queen for a bishop x_x
Wow... I'm bad at chess. Like really bad.
Holy moly. That was so impressive from a technical standpoint.
Fun chess roguelike. Very responsive interactions. I like that you had time to make different difficulty levels and a leaderboard. Great job!
Very polished and creative spin on chess. I like that I can bring my existing chess skills (or lack thereof, lol) to the game, but also have to think differently, as I can't just defend and slowly advance, I have to make use of my moves. Also having the existing pieces and their low move count carry over from one match to another is a nice touch.
Beautiful presentation also.
S tier design, artwork, audio, everything. The only problem is that Im too dumb for this
thank you for your feedback, I appreciate it
A very well made and polished experience. Theme use is pretty creative with chess. Music pulled everything together nicely. A few critiques I have, the camera could use a bit of movement I made a few mistakes since the pieces kind of blended together and I lost a few pieces due from that, also being able to click on an enemy piece and see it's paths would be a nice qol touch, other than that a few bosses tossed in and you got a nice thing going.
thank you for your feedback, I am already working on the game for improving and I have added a camera toggle for top-down view too. I be adding more levels and bosses including daily and weekly challenges.
Heck yeah, I'm at the top of the leaderboard! I loved this so much.
haha nice, im glad you enjoyed.
Really cool and creative coundown interpretation. I enjoyed it but was a little bit confused when I had to play it out rather than normal checkmate. There's totally something here though I liked the art and the gameplay too! Great game!
thank you, well Yh there are loads of improvements coming after the jam
Very creative use of the theme! I love the game design and the audio. Great game, deserves more ratings. :)
thank you so much for your feedback.
Awesome! The music is very fitting. Really enjoyed it, I can see myself coming back to it later. The chess bot does not suck at all and for such short time it is very well made.
thank you, glad you enjoyed it.
I kinda suck at chess but this game, the graphics, the audio, the mechanics are very cool ! Keep up the good work man ! I'd love if you check out our game too thanks !
thank you for playing and rating, I enjoyed playing your game too.
Incredible!!
I love chess and roguelikes, so this was a really fun combination!
One idea is maybe adding a little bit of variety to have different level types beyond just ramping up difficulty gradually. E.g. novelty or boss levels every 3rd one (opponent has all bishops? board size changing? extra kings to take)
Very impressed with what you were able to do in the given time. Well done!
thank you for your feedback, I will definitely be looking into those if I decide im taking this game further,
I didn't do too well, but that was a fun and impressive game! AI and scoreboards even, well done! The deploy formation was also a cool idea. Interested to see how far you can go with this idea.
thank you, most likely i will be looking into continuing this after the jam
Fun puzzle, love the ability to deploy new pieces during the game!
thank you
Nice game!
