Developer Notes**

  • Here is the first real round of balancing for the wooden pieces. The wooden pieces have definitely pushed the limits of movement so I decided to devote most of this week's FPS Chess development time to trying out a new game setting to limit the board size as the time goes on.

  • To keep things improving please continue leaving your thoughts on the new changes and what balance changes you want to see in the future in the new official discord or on the steam community discussions page.

  • While spending one day a week on FPS Chess and the rest of my time on FPS Chess 2 I will be attempting to do one FPS Chess patch every Wednesday if possible so please keep looking forward to them!
