This is crazy good. I need more brain to get more into it. I don't think I have ever played anything quite like this. Pawns/Wolves going backwards made me pay attention. Controls are a little awkward but kind of fit (the whole backspace to cancel). I do really appreciate the option to turn off the CRT stuff... love the effect but can hard on my eyes. This is awesomely unique, I kind of suck at chess... and I am baffled why there are not a bunch of comments.
game looks amazing (cutscenes tho felt cringe because you are portrayed not as some king, general or even peasaunt, but just as some cartoonish dude with the dream face), plays good too, it feels polished in that regard, but i want to say that enemy pieces' behavior can be really dumb sometimes (like here on the screenshot, i just held two pieces under attack with my queen and other pieces tried to defend them? what i want to say is that enemy ai seems to not understand the goal of the game, it tries to eat as much of my material as possible, sometimes even doing stuff like sacrificing a queen for a pawn)
