A simple, cute retro version of classic Chess made in Pico-8. Full implementation of almost all of the Chess rules with a juicy interface and some basic AI to play against. Created as part of the Chess Jam 2018. Here is the game's entry on itch.io.
Jucy animations were very important to me. My Chess AI will never be competetive. So I focused on the game being pretty, readable and fun to play. I wanted to add even more functions but sadly, I ran out of tokens. I tried to squeeze in as many as I could.
That being said, the Chess AI is kicking my butt. Let me know if you've beaten it. Not sure how smart it really is - my Chess is rusty. Also, let me know if you find any bugs.
Note: Game will not recognize draw by Threefold repetition.
