War Chess Revival

Classic chess, but the pieces are soldiers. Pick a war, pick a side, and play a full game of chess where every capture plays out as a small animated battle: cavalry charges, pawns open fire, tanks shell their targets, and a defeated king doesn't surrender gracefully. The game features three eras: Napoleonic Wars (Coalition vs. France and allies), World War I (Triple Entente vs. Central Powers), and World War II (Allies vs. Axis), with each era having its own soldiers, cavalry, officers, artillery, tanks and leaders. This game revives an idea I had abandoned for a long time: a war-themed chess game inspired by Chess Battle, with soldiers instead of classic chess pieces, and this jam was the push I needed to finish it. The game uses standard chess rules, including moves, captures, check and checkmate. Mouse: select a piece and click a highlighted square to move. Game modes: vs. AI / local two-player. Status: Jam build. Some chess rules may still be missing, such as castling or en passant. If you find a bug, tell me in the comments. Credits: Design, programming and direction: Pedro. Engine: Godot 4. Inspired by Chess Battle.
