Chess

This project's primary role is to serve as a framework for an isometric turn-based game written in Rust with Bevy engine.

Run the following commands to launch:

1. Launch the first client on port 12351 with the title "Chess A".

$ cargo run -- --port 12351 --title "Chess A"

2. Launch second client on port 12350 with the title "Chess B" & configure it to connect to client "Chess A".

$ cargo run -- --port 12350 --title "Chess B" --remote "127.0.0.1:12351"

3. Launch a game on the first client by pressing "Start"
4. Join the created game on the second client by pressing "Join"

Set the environment variable RUST_LOG="chess=debug" for debug logs.

Roadmap

• Validate move before executing
• Highlight moves
• Show current player with text
• Implement attacking
  • Handle health changes in various modules (despawn + remove sprite)
• Implement Knight
• Implement King
• Add robust logging
• Update rendering to isometric
• Add Networking
  • Serialize/deserialize board
  • Serialize/deserialize messages
  • Add reconnection functionality
• Migrate to using SpriteConfig
• Migrate to animated sprites
• Show movable squares on hover
• Add Bot AI
• Add startup screen
  • Allow user to select team
• Build Action UI
