Slime Chess
Gloop was born in a puddle behind the castle’s kitchens, where spilled soup and moonlight fermented into ambition. Every night, while the cooks slept and the rats held their tiny parliaments, he watched the chessboard through a crack in the pantry door.
Now this little slime is ready to play chess his way; by bouncing off walls and pieces to claim the crown! Slime chess is a game about bouncing off things to win!
Gameplay: Slime Chess is a turn-based puzzle game where you control Gloop, a chess-loving slime. Instead of moving like a regular chess piece, Gloop bounces off walls and obstacles to hit targets. Each level is a mini chessboard puzzle – plan your bouncy trajectories to knock over the opposing king and win the game!
Once you're ready, try and beat chess - using a Slime!

I really like the concept of: "What if a slime piece was added to chess." Played through all levels quite easily and had fun while doing so, would love to see some more challenging puzzles with this!
Thank you! More challenging puzzles are on the way, I'm finishing up a level editor that will make that easier for me.
