Free Chess

How do you mess up chess? I mean it's pretty simple and you spent more time with making sure the pieces reacted to being dropped when trying to take another piece then actually simply letting you move and take another piece. Great to see pieces knocked around, both pieces sitting on the same tile and the game continue like you didn't just take the opponents piece. Tried to reinvent the wheel and failed.

You can say its a fun, goofy game but to be honest even for a free game its quite bad. I mean it is Chess but the mechanics are poorly done and there is no tutorial and you kind of have to guess which button is which and everything ends up a mess. The graphics are quite good but the gameplay is sloppy and I'll get to that in a bit. The servers and game is all dead so you can't play online but you can play against an AI who is badly written. If you wanted to do an easy, casual and chill game, the AI will start going really hard on you (promise not a skill issue). Now the gameplay, if you wanted to learn how to play chess, don't do it on here, the gameplay and game of "Chess" is bad here because you can move all your pieces regardless and just win instantly. But even moving the pieces is an effort itself because when you kill a piece you have to manually move both pieces even though the game indicator says X. And when you win a game in one move, the AI will wait for you to do a move and then instantly press the green button to take it back to your turn, so there is no win screen, which will automatically take you back to the menu or a map that has reset so you have to figure out what…

Cool

Love the concept! Excited to try with friends

It's free, it's pretty alright. I like how the pieces look. My constructive criticism to the dev would be to let the player change the view angle. I'd rather play as if I were sitting across from my opponent. Also, the cursor feels clunky. I do like that grabbing the pieces feels like I'm really grasping them. Like they're weighted. Thank you for making this free!
