The game was fun, it was definitely not what i was expecting. My only note was i kept losing track of myself as the enemies would fill the screen and all be pulsing together as they moved.

Nice theming! I really liked how you made a bullet hell game with the enemies inspired by chess pieces (and how they move). For some reason the game only starts when you press 'z'. Clicking on the 'Play' button doesn't start the game either. I also got the idea of 'playing chess with death'. Nice Game!

Fun game, would be better if moving wasn't snappy but smooth. Music really good too.

Cool game. Liked the laser section. Only the Z button starting the game is super weird but I won't hold it against you cause thats supernitpicky. The movement of pieces should've been tweened slightly or something, the way they all just jump forward at the same time makes it hard to track whats going on and kinda makes my head hurt a little bit. All in all solid entry

Hey! I loved the game. Pretty simple but it was fun to dodge all the coming attacks.

Before: I don't know if I can beat a chess game. After: I know how to play chess now!

I really like this! Strong old school 90s public domain game vibes; I think it's the music. :ok_hand:
