Mystic Chess
A downloadable game
Chess but as a roguelike deckbuilder. Buy pieces to get stronger and try to beat progressively stronger AI opponents. Try out new pieces that aren't in normal chess, and use strategy to decide where to place your pieces before each game. Pieces can also have modifiers to effect how you use them.
This game is meant to be balanced, challenging, and to feel similar to playing normal chess but with some new pieces and the variety of a roguelike. The main differences are you win by capturing the opponents king, and the board size starts at 6x6 and slowly gets bigger as the run progresses. And black moves first because white gets the benefit of seeing where black put their pieces before placing their own. Also no en passant (will maybe add it later).
The game is still in a pretty early prototype phase. I just want to get some playtesting and feedback so let me know if you run into any bugs or have any suggestions for features I should add. The AI can get pretty slow when theres alot of pieces on the board, wizards are especially slow. It was my first chess AI so it's not that strong, but I think the game is hard enough as it is right now. If people are interested in this game then I will work on it some more.
