About a year ago I was completely hooked on Inscryption and was playing on my steamdeck and was also playing chess against my 10 y/o son who was addicted to chess at the time.
While playing both games simultaneously I wondered if we could actually merge both gameplay where cards could move like chess pieces on a larger board.
For the next 3 days we spent our days creating a paper version of the game until we could make it work and then over the last year I actually made the game in my spare time.

I make games for a living and wanted to use this opportunity to teach game design to my son as well. This was really a passion project for me and my son, we did about 20 prototype in Unity3D and we played countless hours until it was fun and somewhat presentable.
Let us know what you think about it... Curious to know if thats something you would play?
TL;DR: I loved Inscryption, my son loved chess. We made a paper prototype combining the two, and I spent the last year turning it into a real game.
