Hello! Very beautiful design and arts are very good. I could finish the first level by watching your video. But I had some problems, sometimes we just can't do anything when I click on things and nothing happens and the game does not say what is wrong so need to just restart.
Number of arrows and cards are limited. You can see on the top right corner. Once they get zero you can't place arrows on cards or move using the arrows. Also you can't move on black squares and they can also interrupt the card movement.
Well made game, it is really well polished ! At first t was quite confusing but with your comment and the help of the tutorial I could understand and enjoy it !
For the grid itself and the hover tweening, did you use a grid based on UI buttons or did you do it with prefabs and scripts ?
Good job ! :)
Thankyou for playing! Glad tutorial helped you to understand mechanic.
For grid I used prefabs and script to generate grid and for tweening I used a small script to assign tag to objects then used raycast to detect and applied zoom effect.
I had a hard time understanding how to play, even with the tutorial, so I couldn’t really get into the gameplay. It seems to be some kind of chess puzzle connected to the classical elements, but I wasn’t able to fully understand the mechanics or how it connects to the game jam theme. That said, the presentation is really well done: the graphics, transitions, and interactions all feel very polished. I wish I could have understood the gameplay better, because there seems to be a lot of care put into the experience.
Okay let me explain the mechanic... Its very simple... The goal is to reach the green square. There are two ways you can move the pawn... 1. Select the arrow and use it by clicking the grid slot. 2. Use a card.. select card, fill the slots using the arrows and activate. Then the pawn will move in the left to right order of the card slots and if all the movements were successful you gain power of that card piece and you can move one time like that piece. And for the piece movement just click on a square where you can move according to that piece.
......... And keep in mind you have limited use of arrows and cards in each level that you can see in the top right corner. Hope this helps.
Here is the solution of the first puzzle so that you can understand the mechanic.... 1. Use up arrow to move up one square... Then use rook card and fill the slot with right arrow and activate... Then pawn will move right and you gain the rook power... So now you can move like a rook so just click on the green square and you will get there.
Now everything is clear, in addition to clicking the arrows and the card that "activates" the chessboard element, I have to click on the chessboard
For those who know the game of chess, it becomes an exciting game
