Board Updates! (Part 7 - Upgraded!)
Kings and Kingettes,
Further developments! We’ve been diligent at work, preparing to show our next demo at the Capital Creative Showcase on April 20th! https://www.capitalcreativeshowcase.com/
Each week, we’ll be posting updates of what we’re working on. Some will be available to play, while some features are just too early to show. We’re happy to discuss anyways because we want feedback. We’ll continue to do this until the day of the show, so consider subscribing on itch or… anywhere!
This week, let’s talk about…
Upgrades and Abilities!
That’s right! Where would our game be without some new skills to mess around with?
Before that, some preparation... Your opponents… have upgrades.
Oh no!!
Fortunately, you will receive upgrades too; at the start, no less!
Whew! What a relief…
But beware, for you’ll start to see things in the tournament never seen before. Things that may… pull your attention and… um… swap it, too…? What?
Introducing… Life Grip!
Your bishops love you, and want to keep you safe. Now they can extend that to other pieces. With Life Grip, a bishop can pull your pieces out of danger, in any diagonal direction!
This takes a move, but it could save you a knight! (and really confuse your enemy in the process!)
Introducing Noble Step!
More like Noble Swap! Your pawns can now switch places! With anything! Did you want a rook on the front-line? A queen? THE KING?!
Now you can do it at the start, with a Noble STEP!
All this (and hopefully improved)… at the Capital Creative Showcase in Sacramento, CA on April 20th, 2024! (and also here on itch)
Let us know what you think… a week from now!
See you then!!
