Great job in porting it to Pico-8, it's fun! 👌
I see you have done a lot of Pico-8 chess games.. ah sure! I remember we've had a some fun managing data in Variations: the Vienna 👍


porting? i've heard the term but don't know what it really means. This was written from scratch!
what you did for me in the vienna opened up everything and some variation of it is used in all of my carts since. thanks again! (i'll also take your advice and check out the discord. see you there.)

It's clever how you squeezed down levels from Chessformers inspiration into your smaller board size.

@camp39 true, porting is improper, I meant a remake/demake. And yes! I did notice in the code the use of big strings 👌


@Cowirrie, making the puzzles is my least favorite part. I loved coding this, but just not making the puzzles. So I copied what I could from Chessformer.

If anyone enjoys creating these types of puzzles, it's pretty easy to add extra puzzles and you could re-release yourself or I could update this with more. I can tell you what to add and where in the code.
