NGL, when I got to the end the punchline really got me!
Clear and clean chess-like puzzle game.
Nice game :)
Nicely designed puzzles. It's cool how you had very basic levels in the beginning to show how the different colored pieces worked. It would be nice if the deselect function was assigned to right-click as well though, just to make it easier for the player to reach.
I like the concept, it's one of those games where I need more levels that are really complicated to make me feel frustrated ahah. Would've liked the game to be more "top-view" for an easier game experience. Still a nice game that can be improved with more of those "hardcore level". Nicely done !
Don't see a lot of chess puzzles games. That's for sure. Intro levels are well laid out and teach players the mechanics in a very natural way. Would be nice to see this pushed further, post jam naturally, as most of the puzzles are fairly linear and don't push the player to think in any new way. Just something to keep in mind as a design goal if you want to take this further afterward.
I've enjoyed this not complicated puzzle. Wish there was more levels, also, Knights would be good for this kind of games.
I really liked this game. Expecting more levels of this in further versions if you are going to work on this. Please visit my game too and rate it.https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/47/the-dumb-robot
I was happily surprised by how much I enjoyed those puzzles! They required a bit of thought but were all doable. I would have enjoyed more! The sound effects worked well, even if they were simple. Having a reset button and a slightly better way of selecting the pieces (without having to press esc) would have been improvements. Nice job though!
Cool little puzzle game, would have been nice to see more levels or if the repeating levels had something change when you played them again.
Really cool puzzle game!
As a chess player I really enjoyed this game! I really like the 3D approach you took and the puzzles are not too easy nor too difficult. Overall I had a fun playing this. Well done!
The game idea is simple and great! I would like to see a polished version :)
The gameplay idea is simple and pretty fun. The puzzles is simple and fun. The visuals is not very good, and the game really need some music, and perhaps some more sound effects. Overall an okay little jam game.
Overall, I think it's a solid idea, but it's a bit hard to play. The UI doesn't scale, so it's almost too small to read on my screen, which makes it hard to check my remaining turns. The camera angle occasionally made it a bit difficult to select a square, so changing that or giving the player the ability to rotate the camera would also be a small quality of life improvement. I also think that binding "deselect piece" to escape wasn't the best idea, since escape also un-fullscreens in a web player. However, the concept is really cool, and I did enjoy trying to figure out the puzzles.
Nice job with taking a clean idea and communicating the rules through a nice progression of puzzles instead of text! I especially enjoyed figuring out what the blue square does the first time, and also the puzzle where I thought it would be easy because I had a bishop, but then realized the only path through was on the wrong color square.
Overall a nice puzzle entry, well done.
