A downloadable game for Windows

Real-Time Chess! (2 players are required to play)

Ever complained about chess being a turn-based game? No one will wait for your turn in reality! This is REAL-TIME Chess , I bet even Magnus will have a hard time playing this.

The Kings can start their standard move any time, no matter the color.  (Feint movements are currently being implemented for the next update)

Gameplay is similar to fighting games but you can switch combat forms into Knight, Rook, or Bishop, excluding your default King/Pawn form, to inherit the piece's attack range. However, missing a launched attack against the Opposite King will summon your corresponding pieces, putting them in risk to be captured. 

Switching of stances and using your summoned pieces wisely offers a chess game's possibility of playstyles at the player's will.

General chess rules are somewhat applied to this branch of chess game: Option to move 2 spaces forward as the first move (Pawn inheritance), 8 pawns for you to place/move forward to the end(like projectiles), 2 pieces of Knight, Rook, and Bishop for you to inherit their moves (attack moves only, missing the King or attacking opponent's pieces will summon your piece at the attacked position), moving and attacking will cost a turn(0.333 seconds vulnerability)

Both Players as Kings can only move 1 space at a time, and it is checkmate if the opponent initiates an attack onto the King, like the King in chess. However the attacks varies by changing style. Outplay your opponent by making the best moves in real time!

Occupied attack spaces are highlighted, making it easier to view the complication and brilliance of the game in action!

This game is made as a self-learning project that is based on chess therefore it will not be commercialized.

Any bug reports will be appreciated! Thank you!

There will be bugs as I haven't test the game with a real player.

Please do send the bugs you've encounter to: chesscombat@outlook.com
