What changed
- Gameplay
- UI and audio
- Fixes
Many new players enter the increasing battles across Chessland, attempting to seize power. For now we can be confidant that they are merrily trying to gauge the strength of their own forces and test new compositions. Though I would warn everyone to keep your key on them, as those that appear weak today are likely to improve an untold amount.
This update is focused on improving the game for the Demo. I've added in challenges, import/export of formations, many fixes... No new pieces yet though, they are still in the works.
Added
Profile section: Elo, Wins, Loss, Played (Elo is currently only a testing stat and will not effect matchmaking, stats currently count AI games)
Challenges: These are preset formations to fight, Though you can use any formation you craft against them. The AI is very dumb but in the future these will be much harder and tied to achievements
Debug export: This is mainly for testing, won't be offering support for running/using this for the time being
Wishlist button: This will only be visible on the demo, takes you to the steam page
More play settings: time format, stating color
Import/Export: You can now import and export your formations from the forge. Allowing to share a formation with a friend.
Forge Visual Piece Placer: Now a little piece follows your mouse when placing a piece in the forge, look at him chase your mouse... funny little guy
Changed
AI doesn't copy your formation anymore, will use presets
About section uses markdown and offers a more readable entry, as well as direct links. Like other people who have put out work used in this game. Give them all some love!
Sliders, settings menu got a slight visual update
Removed general setting, as this isn't currently used for anything
Fixed
AI being unnamed in practice
Fixed winning adding to your stats duplicate times
Tooltip spelling
Endless game when opponent disconnects
Stats disappearing after first load
Both players starting game as same color
Re-joining expired games
Searching breaking after playing game
