    The little “click” that happens when it promotes is SO satisfying!

    I think if you accentuate the gaps in the pawn and then give the rest of the pieces a similar stylized look that mimics the gaps in the pawns it would looks really cool. Also, a version that can transform into any promotion would be an amazing challenge.

    • @Redditard
      @Redditard 9 годин тому +23

      Instead of any it could be that 2 pawns can promote to queens, 2 to rook, bishop and knights and as required they may switch the pawns

      ​@@Redditard The whole point is that the promotion is automatic. If you have to swap to a pawn that can promote to what you want then you might as well just swap the regular pawn to the piece that you want.

    Also, 12:50 that looks like a stalemate, not checkmate. If you can't move any of your pieces, but your king is not in check, it is a draw.

    If you're gonna change the horse from a pawn, what if you had the back and head fold into itself? (Kinda like the head of the qween) Then the sides can cave in to give the overall shape? Not sure if you'll see this, but this is a really good idea.

  • @MigranBTW
    @MigranBTW 7 годин тому

    I had to google this because of the line at 1:00 and learned about Saavedra Position. More importantly, I learned that being unable to make a move while still not in check is a stalemate, not a win for the player who last moved.
    While I think it's counter intuitive to say one player being unable to move while the other could is a stalemate, it does create more strategy to avoiding a complete loss. It adds to reasons to keep playing when losing, which is more fun for the player who is winning and achieving a come back or even mitigating defeat are incredibly rewarding feelings. That is amazing game design, a true master piece of a rule.
    More importantly, now that you have made a queen tranforming pawn, the next step is figuring out how to rotate a pawn between all 5 possible pieces. I can imagine pawn > rook > bishop > queen being realistically possible, but whoever manages all 5 will be a legend.

    If you "did" go with an electronic version, you can very easily have the board act as a wireless charger for the pawns.
    So when the pieces are resting on the squares, it keeps them charged. And when a piece makes it to the end, depending on the pawns setting. (Which you can easily manage by a simple rotating notched ring), it will take that shape at the end point.
