There must be something in the water! I’ve been working on a (very different) chess-like roguelike, and just released the demo. Check it out if you’re a fan of weird chess puzzles, bad chess puns, and Hnefatafl!

Wishlisted! Looks great
Looks great! Gamedev is so cool, being able to create enjoyable, playable worlds and characters must be so satisfying. If you can tell me how to build something like this I will be so grateful.
GoG, pls.
Nice this is an actual roguelike
That's awesome! I've been working on nearly this exact same idea as a prototype in Godot. Looks like my work is done! ;-)
Ooh! I’d love to see that, or to have a chat and swap ideas. My email is in my profile if you’d be up for it.
So, Battle Chess 2026?
You’ve got me; I was very much a Battle Chess addict once upon a time…
