You like cute, cube-shaped animals??
Well, look no further!
This project was inspired by Oats Jenkins' video on Youtube titled "I Made a BETTER Chess". In their video, they revised the pieces and rules.
This project is that idea, turned into a video game.

I wanna pay 5 dollars but im broke
Can you please add a way to change time limit? Kind of like the among us meeting time.
People like me don't waste time and generate unnecessary traffic if you could point out that it is a 64 bit game.
Like what @BLX posted, it says it can't be opened on MacOS lol. I tried using your advice but it's not working. Help please :D
This is amazing! I subscribed
dude this is super cool!
MacOS doesn't want to open lol...
For me, I had to right-click and open it. It gave me a prompt, and I had to select "open" a 2nd time. I may need to check its compatibility with newer versions of MacOS. Thanks for letting me know!
I still can't open it
Downloaded it, opens in VLC Media Player. Not impressed.
