(the following is the description of what this game will be like when finished!)
ChessChaos is a tactic adventure story set in Chaos of Chess, where pieces have special abilities. You are a survivor of the last chess apocalypse. You can obtain chess piece variants with special abilities, play against wicked creatures, adventure the wild or crawl the dungeons, conquer the Chaos of Chess.
Currently, only a few playable chess positions are added. The design of the game features can be seen here
This game is inspired by Minecraft Dungeons and a few other games. I started this project because I was into chess lately, and I wanted to combine chess with modern RPG genre.
