A downloadable game design experiment for Windows

Control Chess is an experimental pass-and-play game for two players about using your resources wisely.  It was made by me for the 2020 GMTK Game Jam!

You have three choices:

1.)  Let the game randomly choose which game piece to move, and where to move it.

2.)  Decide which piece moves, but let the game randomly choose where to move it.

3.)  Play chess like normal, with a catch; you have a limited number of control points to spend, and the only way to get them back is for your pieces to capture opponents on their own!

The jam build is fairly unstable, but the post jam build is way better, and more polished!

Controls:

  • Mouse:  for selecting chess pieces, selecting moves, and hitting Go! to pass on your turn.
  • Esc:  Back / Esc
  • Enter:  Start Game
