I love chess and puzzles so I might grab that one LarryWP Well-Known Member Dec 19, 2013 89 0 0 #3 LarryWP, Sep 30, 2015 Great twist on chess. I like it a lot! vectorarchitekt Well-Known Member Dec 29, 2013 2,489 177 63 #4 vectorarchitekt, Sep 30, 2015 Hey this is pretty cool. Any chance of a future endless mode, like how many kings can you capture in a row or something? Montoya Member Sep 30, 2015 6 0 0 Inventor New Jersey http://montoyaindustries.com #5 Montoya, Sep 30, 2015 Gonna be honest, I tried building something like this, which required generating puzzles automatically, and it was a nightmare to code... I just couldn't come up with an algorithm that would distribute the pieces correctly. So probably not. But, I do have ideas for various game modes in future updates! Guise Well-Known Member Jul 10, 2009 2,027 13 38 #6 Guise, Sep 30, 2015 This looks good. Is the title a reference to the Pavement song that originally appeared on the Schoolhouse Rocks compilation? Asking because Pavement rules. Either way, looking forward to trying this. ShinHadoukin Well-Known Member Feb 20, 2015 964 139 43 #7 ShinHadoukin, Sep 30, 2015 I am all for buying more levels. However, 30 level packs from now you've paid $30. Now, that's all optional & I don't think wrong. I'm curious if there could be a buy now & get all packs in the future. This is not to seem cheap, I am all for premium ad-free nonsense. I also think it's crazy to spend what it would cost to get everything in say, Hearthstonre. Great game, but hundreds of dollars later is absurd, though not to everyone. The game is really cool so far!!!! I'm really excited about this!!!! gaymerX Well-Known Member Dec 30, 2014 280 0 16 #8 gaymerX, Sep 30, 2015 I love this game but it needs more animations that show the actual piece movements. Since chess pieces all behave in a specific way, it would be a great way to actually help those people who have never played chess. If the Dev added in some visual flair, this game would be a solid 5 stars for me. ShinHadoukin Well-Known Member Feb 20, 2015 964 139 43 #9 ShinHadoukin, Oct 1, 2015 No hints please. Need to be able to turn that off. Montoya Member Sep 30, 2015 6 0 0 Inventor New Jersey http://montoyaindustries.com #10 Montoya, Oct 1, 2015 Last edited: Oct 1, 2015 Understood! I will add a way to turn it off in a future update. Montoya Member Sep 30, 2015 6 0 0 Inventor New Jersey http://montoyaindustries.com #11 Montoya, Oct 1, 2015 Yep! ShinHadoukin Well-Known Member Feb 20, 2015 964 139 43 #12 ShinHadoukin, Oct 2, 2015 Awesome!!!! You rock!!! ShinHadoukin Well-Known Member Feb 20, 2015 964 139 43 #13 ShinHadoukin, Oct 2, 2015 I hope that didn't come across negative. Great game, just when thinking I don't want moves blinking. Good luck with the game!!! Keep the levels coming dragon4ever Well-Known Member Apr 19, 2009 242 10 18 #14 dragon4ever, Oct 2, 2015 I'm not a fan of chess but this game is fantastic. Montoya Member Sep 30, 2015 6 0 0 Inventor New Jersey http://montoyaindustries.com #15 Montoya, Oct 2, 2015 to be honest i am terrible at chess. a friend gave me a chess set as a gift last year (it's a super mario bros. chess set) and it inspired me to come up with something new thanks for the feedback! glad you are enjoying it!
