I didn't think a boss fight in chess would work, and i'm not a big fan of "puzzle bosses", but that ending was great. 5/5
It took a LOT of iterations to get that fight to work, so we're very happy to hear you liked how it turned out. :)

The Knights Tour mind game as a puzzler that is almost a platformer in nature. Very nicely done :)
Glad you liked it! And it's always nice to see people recognize a game's influences.

Knight vs Knight was a little annoying, but got it to move where I wanted eventually.
Yep, that sounds about right. :)

Good game, very funny and original 5/5. I think there is a little bug: I have killed the queen in the last 'room' where there is the king. After the queen was killed nothing happened and to trigger the movements of the last piece I had to return back

If you find conditions that cause it to happen, please let us know with a bug report so we can reproduce it. EDIT 2: The bug has been fixed. Thanks for your help in tracking it down!
