Dude this game is insanely well polished given it was made in 4 days, fantastic work!

Submitted

So good and polished. It is a bit slow for my taste, but that's probably just personal opinion. I've got no idea how you guys managed this in 4 days.

Submitted

Amazing game! The level of polish and amount of content you were able to achieve in the short amount of time is insanely impressive.

Submitted

Fantastic game! The matches were intense and the cards were so unique, great job!

Beautifully done. Perfect blend of inspiration from Inscryption, Slay the Spire, Balatro, and Gambonanza.

Submitted

Strongest strategy to pull off:

1 ... Summoner King: Nudge king and summon pawns

2 ... Call of the Hero: Swap king with opponet piece (best king) -> then flee


Submitted

I can't believe this was done in such a short amount of time. I also make roguelikes and this is what I strive for lol

Submitted

this game is crazy, slay the spire vibes. id pay for full release

Submitted

I thought was a fun idea and loved the graphics for Death. He moves so creepily. Interesting gameplay concept.

WOW! An Inscription-like chess-themed game? In this economy? 
Amazing work,  the art direction is :chef-kiss:

This game is actually addictive I lost all track of time while playing it and getting pawn builds so powerful i had to try only using one as a challenge 10/10
