Really enjoyed the core loop and clever idea to highlight available options so the player doesn't get frustrated. Congrats on completing the game jam, hope you develop this idea further.

i really like when someone make a chess game with a twist, very nice, love it, so fun to play

Submitted

i want to morph into a king and rule the world

This is a really cool and creative game! I had a lot of fun planning out all my moves and working backwards to find the solution! Great work!

Submitted

This is a really good puzzle game! I could easily see this being turned into a full-fledged game for mobile with heaps more levels!

My only real complaint is that it never felt like the turn counter mattered - I feel like if I was using more turns than allowed, I would have been going down the wrong track anyway.

Still, this was a great brainteaser! Nice work :)

As a person who loves chess this game is great! I love the puzzle idea and it is super fun for me! Great game!

This is very weird in the best way possible! It's kinda like playing a cursed child of chess and checkers. I love it.

Loved it.

Submitted

Really fun idea, I really enjoyed playing this!

Submitted

Cool idea, love backtracking from the king to finalize which moves to play. Played this for quite a while, good job on the puzzle designs

Submitted

Theming a little thin, but I really enjoyed the chess puzzles! Cool idea :)

Submitted

Very fun puzzle game! I was badly missing an undo button when i messed up a move, especially in the later levels.

Submitted

The rule is so simple and easy to understand, but with nice difficulty and really enjoyable! 

great job!

Submitted

Nice chess variation! Love the sfx and the art!

I got stuck for quite a while on some of the levels but it was a good challenge for a chess enjoyer and I managed to complete the game. It's pretty satisfying when you find the solution. Nice game!

Submitted

With more levels (if you could procedurally generate them) this would make a great phone game, or a companion to Minesweeper and friends.

Submitted

As a chess enjoyer I really liked this game, great puzzles! I went all the way :)

This was my max :')

This is the shortest chess I have ever played. In the first levels, I was wondering about the concept of countdown. But later levels are tough.
Well done.

Submitted

Had a very good time with this puzzle game! Good job! Very interesting set of rules and thought-out levels.

Really enjoying gameplay! Love the puzzles combined with chess.
