ChessTD
ChessTD is a tower defense game in which you must defend the king from the enemy chess pieces that came to take him. You have a selection of card towers to stop them at your disposal.
Place your towers wisely and stop them!
Disclaimer: ChessTD is still in development
Controls
Mouse only
- Planning to add key bindings in the future
- Not Planning to add touch/phone support
How to play
Stop the chess pieces before they reach the King at the end of the road.
- On the top right, you have the wave you are, the lives remaining (you lose one each time a chess piece reaches the King), and your money.
- On the bottom right, you have the play/pause button and the fast forward button to control the velocity of the game.
- On the bottom, you have your towers, click one to select it, and then click anywhere on the map where the tooltip is green to place it. (Any placement is permanent)

great game thanks
Sees a very good game for pass the time and makes you arrive to the maximum numbers of wave possible!! So good job doing it!!
I have some feedback to give to you but I don't know where you want than I send it to you, so if you please can tell me
Thanks for playing, I’m glad you enjoy it. You can leave the feedback here or contact me on Twitter. The link is in my profile.
You're welcome :D
The feedback than I have is than it will be good have a indicator with the maximum number of waves than you survived(like a highscore)
It will make the players try to beat his highscore. Also add new enemies and new tower defenses will be good too!!
really nice start! i think the vibe you've chosen: the music/sound/and paper aesthetics with the chess theme work really well and feel cohesive. a great foundation for adding more content : )
is there any reason for not allowing me to place towers while the game is paused?
Thanks for playing the game, I will keep updating this game in the following weeks.
About the build phase, I don’t wanna break the pace of the wave with the ability to build when you pause the game. But I can definitely revisit that behavior in the future.
the content is a little sparse...
just one tower with no further upgrade options and so few waves in total is quite little. but it is only version 0.21 so that will hopefully change.
everything you got so far seems to be working smoothly, it's a good base for the rest of the game. i'll come back to it in a while.
Thanks for playing the game, you can check out the Roadmap to see what is coming next versions.
Good. Nice minimalist style. I look forward to continuing
Thank you! Looking forward to keep pushing content into the game
cool
Thanks for playing the game!
