I was a little sad when I couldn't promote to a queen or castle but totally understandable in a game jam setting.
Then more , more ,an more
good game
The diamonds are powerups you can get for the piece that lands on them. +1 attack, +1 health, +1 movement, or spawn a new random piece. They are definitely hampered by lacking visual difference and no feedback (larger message, audio cue). However, if you hover over them you should see the type of buff you'll get.
Neat idea, and well implemented! When pieces upgraded, it would have been nice to get a little more feedback on that, I think attacked someone who had a block or something and nothing went as I expected after that ^_^.
When I saw the first movements of my rival I thought I could win this. How wrong I was :grin:
The audio is really a good complement to the game.
