    One of my favorite songs! Fits surprisingly well with the chess theme, every piece is tied to the lyrics!
    For mobile zoom into the middle, start dragging from the middle and don't let go, or the caption might teleport!
    Achievements for Gamers:

      Does it count for if the black square of the captions touches but not the king itself (like the corner for exemple) ? Because I've always been considering the all caption to count if touched but it feels like that would be impossible to do for the fast queen

      Another achievement I could add is Only move the king one square in any direction (like in real chess) after the enemy makes a move with one of their pieces. Start the king in the 3rd square in the bottom row.

    Pillar = Rook because it looks like a pillar, Missionary = Bishop because of the religious connotation, Cavalry = Knight because it refers to soldiers who fought on horseback, Become = Pawn because they have the ability of pawn promotion to become one of four pieces. Am I right?

    So, I saw the comment about the gray squares counting as hit and wondered how many enemy moves can you live through for every square ( The columns are A - E going left to right and the rows are 1 - 5 going down to up ):
    [captures within " ! " mean that it has already been captured]
    Move 1:
    - King captures ( C5, C4, C3 )
    Move 2:
    - Pawn captures ( B1 )

    - Pawn captures ( A3 )

    - "now the old king is dead!" captures ( A4, B4, !C4!, D4, E4 )

    - Pawn captures ( !D1!, D2 === last possible place.
    cool xd. If you choose the D2 square you would live thru 27 moves ( 1:38s ).

This one is so much harder on 2x speed than on normal even though I already know what’s coming up, because this is 100x harder to memorize than the style of your previous 4 videos, so I have to react so quickly toward the end!

    Genuinely, this is a really cool idea, both movement mechanic and that figures move according to song. But at the same time it was too slow (with how fast you can move the screen it's really easy to dodge), and too long (if you put your finger from the screen and then put it back, "character" could teleport on the other side of the map). Also i found that x1.7 for this game is better, because at x1.8 you will if you go too far up or down you will not see the opposite side, and also teleports you less
    Upd: okay, I tried it on x2 as suggested in top comm, it's much better now, needed one retry because i stuck between figures in lower half and a few more tries for grey figures move
