Hey everyone,
It's been a while since I've last posted here, it's good to be back though, I hope your Xmas was fun!
This update brings another brand new feature into the game, you will now be able to customize your piece set-up!
Bored of moving around 20 pawns across 100x100 board ? How about switching them all to queens and bishops instead ?
You can set up any combination of pieces as long as there's less than 30 of them in total, and obviously you can't have more than 1 king, at least for now (:
On top of that I've gotten rid of quite a few smaller and bigger bugs, if you've been having issues with premoving then hopefully it's all fixed now.
You can now also disable shopping system if you don't like or use it.
Hope you'll enjoy! :)
Hey gamers, Update 1.2 is here! I'm happy that I somehow managed to get it done before Xmas, this time I've implemented additional 2 modes into the game:
Capture-And-Swap
Sorry that I'm not too creative with names for those modes lol, anyways, this mode was suggested by one of the users on our discord, it's quite straightforward and yet a lot of fun, every time you capture enemy piece you swap all positions with them. In the game lobby you can pick which pieces will result in swap.
Walls
As the name suggest, there are randomly generated walls all around the map, forcing players to adjust their strategy accordingly. This mode is still in an early alpha version thus only available in singleplayer for now. And yes.. knights can 'jump' over the walls (: Match customization I've added a few more options in match lobby, allowing you to customize the match in more detail so that you can find your favorite combination. On top of everything mentioned above I improved optimization quite a bit, especially in Team Battle mode, now game should hopefully load faster and take less memory. Okay guys, I think that's it for this update, thanks for all the support I got from you, I'm looking forward to all the crazy updates for this game that I'll be working on in 2022 as well as hundreds of bugs that will require fixing :) Merry Xmas and Happy New Year everyone!
Hey everyone, I'm glad to announce the release of the first major update since the game release. I've implemented 2 new sub-modes into Singleplayer and Custom game modes:
Fog of War
As the name suggest, in this mode your visibility is limited to only a few tiles, amount of visibility is different for every piece.
Stick-With-King
Players that don't enjoy too much chaos will definitely find Stick-With-King fun to use in their matches as this mode limits pieces' movement to only x number of tiles away from king, you can still check enemy's king outside of your 'zone' though! On top of that I've also added a functionality that allows players to customize their pieces' formation before the start of a match:
All of the above features are optional in Singleplayer and Custom game modes. This update also brings some changes to the AI, player is now be able to choose difficulty level ranging from 0-100, higher level means higher probability of your artificial opponents stealing your pieces and hence surviving. I also fixed a few bugs in singleplayer that were causing occasional game freezes, sorry for not spotting them earlier.
That's it for this update, hope y'all will have lots of fun exploring strategies and winning games with those new game modes. Remember to join our discord to stay updated on the current state of development and share your experience! Merry Xmas! steamhappy
