WW chess
Cannot connect to the theme but its fun to play.
These bishops always get me! Very cool and quite addicting game! I think I got catured by an offscreen figure once, if that is possible? Good work!
Interesting game concept, very addicting too.
Cool game, only main thing I'd say is the further along you are on the board at the end of a round, it should scroll back a bit faster (or have the scroll speed cap a bit higher if this is already in place)
Simple but witty :thumbsup:
Investigating it @oadt edit: couldn’t recreate the issue
Awesome game! Really clever.
I'd really like to have a way to gained back time if you take other pieces. It would add an extra layer where you might take moves backwards in order to capture more.
Thanks for the submission!
Really liked the mechanics. It's challenging ;) There could be sound hinting when we're close to timing out and other one to let us know we increased the remaining time.
That was fun! My high score was 30 :)
GFetting checkmated off the screen is insane. But I love this concept, and honestly I need to get better at intuitively understanding how the knights move, so I might need to revisit this game
Fun game! My highest score was 34.
Pretty awesome idea ! endless runner + chess is quite the unexpected combo and it works! With more juice (vfx) and mechanics (like rewards for eating enemies, or even allowing the enemies to move somehow) would make for a really addictive game loop. Great work
Wow this game is amazing for the short time frame we had! Great job!.
Surprisingly fun for its simplicity, I love games that are easy to understand and simple mechanically, which isn't to say it wasn't fun, I had a lot of fun trying to get the most out of the time I have and frantically trying to go fast before I mess up because I forgot for a second how queens move XD. Nice work on this innovative game!
Very cool idea. There are some combinations where you can't get through though. I also thought about whether it would be nice to fill the remaining time up by beating enemy pieces? I would definitely play a more polished version of this on mobile.
this game is so creative!!!I love the game idea so much,wish for more levels to play,It is so simple but so good for the game jam theme~~~~
