    The way you reset the pieces by just pressing on the top is what makes the design so special. Automatic transformation AND a simple reset motion is what makes a design beautiful to use.

      Original message:
      It is not really true that the rules haven't changed at all in 2000 years.
      The rules for castling and how to move the king when doing it have changed a couple of times, the "if you touch a piece you must move it" rule did not always exist and, if I'm not wrong, the "en passant" rule that involves some pawn captures was introduced only 2 or 3 centuries ago
      Although the rules that have changed the most don't really affect casual players, since those are not those of the movement of the pieces, but rather rules of competitive chess (technicallities like what happens when you do an illegal move, the time limits of each kind of game, the number of games in the match for the world champion title, etc.)

    Great video, I like how you show your idea is being constructed with few videos, getting defeated but still giving in to perfect your pieces. Although you did put some "failed moment" at the back but I'm still excited to watch how you perfected your piece. Amazing video!

    It’s a beautiful thing to place all the queens at the beggining of the game and transform them before starting to play. What a fantastic project and what a great video

    This is one of the coolest YT videos I’ve seen in months. It’s awesome! I love chess, so the concept and execution itself was cool, but with that editing, I would be mindblown by a video in how to tape together two sticks! Amazing work.

    Thank you for including the "demotivation" part. Your concept alone was SO much more sophisticated than theirs, and yet you shortly got derailed by it.
    Thank you for picking it up again, showed me that even when someone else publishes a "similar" thing, it never takes away from your take and people *do* understand the difference clearly

    1:40, i really like the collapse here, it adds a dynamic element to the scene and feels... Satsifying. It also really reminds me of some of Portal's humor with the Aperture Science turrent commercial where they do a cross section and the part removed just falls apart

    This is amazing! The mechanics are so much finer than those I am currently working on for a cosplay project, your project gives me hope I can still make it. I also liked that you showed how the process was influenced by someone who made an animated design first, someone who made something similar faster than you and also the struggle of actually manufacturing it, which is something where I had to admit some defeats, too. I also liked the real-world test with family members, who liked and enjoyed it but did not completely freak out like the online community sometimes tends to either do or expect you to.

    Extraordinary video, love the desing and the process. it could also reovlutionaize chess. to the point that each pawn becomes a different piece, a horse, a tower and a queen plus knight. and adds an extra layer on trying to get the pawn you want to the end withought your oponent knowing what to expect

    10:59 literally gives me goosebumps! The fact that you chose to use pure mechanism to trigger the promotion is just perfection, not to mention your quality animation and editing! I've always been fascinated by the concept since Polyfjord's work, and then Pyrmillionaire's. You've all done a great job in this project. Give this man a million views and subs!!

      @psymar 15 днів тому +5

      ​​@@iluvcivic98Probably didn't realize stalemate is different. common beginner mistake is "checkmate is when the king can't move" which, of course, makes no sense considering the initial position
