I think that the board is a bit empty though, and there aren't quite enough game pieces to justify the full chess board.  I also felt like the fact that knights can't move backwards meant that their usefulness was terribly compromised considering that they don't have the special power of a chess pawn to graduate to a Queen."},{"author_name":"little_polygon","author_uid":"19295","time":"May 7, 2013 @ 5:21am","epoch":1367903760,"text":"Simple and well-done :)"},{"author_name":"AndyBumpkin","author_uid":"1735","time":"May 7, 2013 @ 4:09pm","epoch":1367942640,"text":"Love the idea here, a nice minimalist adaptation on chess. \r<br\/>It's a shame there was no single player mode, but I can imagine how tricky that would be for a 48hr compo!\r<br\/>Music got to me a bit after a few goes.
