|
 |
Goal:100k
Platforms: PC(iOS,360 etc only if overfunding)
Genre:Turn based-strategy
Release date: October 2012
Official Kickstarter Page
Quote: | The characters are hi-poly, hi-res textures complete with normal mapping and specular lighting.
There are 77 different possible battle scenarios, each character having at least three variations. Each of these battles has 3 animated camera variations. All these combinations cut down on the repeats.
The three environments are completely different (Throne Room, Dungeon and Garden) and support advanced lighting and texture modes.
We have 7 modes of gameplay, in single player (all can be done with traditional chess pieces or animated characters):
Versus AI
Training Mode
Challenge Mode
Combat Vault
Versus AI mode is your stand player versus the computer. We have completely replaced the original Chess AI and have six distinct levels of difficulty. The highest level plays at an estimated 2300 ELO.
Training mode allows the player to place pieces on the board in any configuration they like and then play against any level of AI.
Challenge mode, in which we have pre-constructed nine different scenarios of varying degree of difficulty and then challenge the player to solve the scenario within a specific numbers of moves. For example, “Capture the King in 3 moves.”
The Combat Vault allows a player to see any of the previously unlocked battles. This way is a player really likes one particular battle scene – they can watch it over and over.
The game provides a complete set of video tutorials presented directly on the chess board by each of the characters themselves.
The game will have three multiplayer modes:
Local multiplayer - head to head on the same machine/device.
Online multiplayer – head to head against an online opponent.
Timed game – head to head against online opponent but with a time limit. (2, 5, 10, 30, 60, 90 or 120 minutes)
Other online features planned include:
Skill based Match making, which allows players of like skill levels to play each other.
Leaderboard support with rankings.
Full statistics.
Over 100 different Achievements.
The game also features a completely original musical score and professional voice talent for each of the characters.

Oh, you shouldn't think I would dislike a new Battle-Chess game. It's just that the amount of money they want is ridiculous. Especially because, in their own words, the game is almost finished. Also they can't guarantee that it will be on Steam. Seriously, this stinks like a mountain of fish.

As I recall, in the original the queen had bigger tits and a tinier waist. Also she really swayed her ass back and forth when she walked.

What did you expect?It's chess with over-the-top animations in capture moves. Have you ever played the original? Do you like chess?

I want this remastered:
I loved this when I was a kid Seeing the way one mates the king was hilarious, and king had like the funniest kills (iirc he would shoot the bishop or the knight)
I don't need the high realism, just this, with a bit smoother textures.

The game is good and brings up memories of the classic one. I haven't seen all the pieces encounters yet but there are some good ones so far. It needs though more hilarious capture animations. There is some room for improvement although the game seems to be ready for a release in a couple of months.
The AI is decent on Normal difficulty, though I didn't stress the engine to difficult situations. It doesn't matter so much as the game is nice for casual chess players and not experts.

I guess i just would expect something more innovative and with better gfx in 2014... so if you´re really into chess, this is not a game for you.
And if youre a little bit into chess, but much more into gaming, then this game is probably also not very much for you. Its just too mediocre, at least from the looks.
