Yo,you should name the "stronger rook" to be called "hypercastle" because of 2 main reason #1:Hyper usually means a super upgraded version of that obj #2:ITS COOL BRUH IMAGINE IT Update #1: 12 people has agreed to me,thanks. Update #2: 21,Now this is pretty nice,hope he upload another videos of triangle chess with name changing

The bishop was tired of staying in one color💀

i was interested in this video and then that happened...

[@HackerDragon9999]

The non stronger rook is almost exactly the same as the bishop. I also made a triangle chess version, and in it, the bishop is very weird, making a squiggly line to stay on its color.

[@PauxloE]

Weak rook and bishop here are dual to each other - one can undo each other's moves when they can't do that themselves.

[@M1Miketro]

Bishops can now access the full board.

They, and the weaker rooks, also might not be able to go back to the triangle they came from if they go to a different color triangle.

Triangle grids still only need 2 coordinates. You can try Ranks and Files, except instead of diagonal files, they're just the vertical rook moves from the 13 bottommost green tiles on the board.

[@tongpoo8985]

I'm thinking there could be another piece on the backmost triangle on each side. The "defender". It can teleport anywhere on your side of the board but it can only attack adjacent triangles, and it cannot teleport to block when the king is in check. I think this could be kind of interesting especially for shoring up your flanks since pawns can never go to the edges near the center. The back triangle should have some kind of strong piece on it I think..

[@kurz-Stibi]

Your Triangel Chess version is definitly better than the Green Lemon games version as yours is more symetrical. I look forward until I hopefully will be able to find someone who plays this Chess Variant with me. So I'll only use your game, thanks. The Bishop new skin thing and then just using a crude drawing was a nice parody against all overpriced DLC software developers. But I wonder if it would make sense to combine Knight and Unicorn into a stronger Knight as both the moves are somewhat knight-like, so this would be similar logic like with stronger rook.

[@Shapeshifter_bot]

Something you could’ve done for the knight is not go with the L thing but with the 2moves one direction 1 move on the opposite (like 2 down 1 right) which would make the knight more/less powerful depending on if it’s moves are based on the normal rook or big rook

[@jakubradomski2613]

i found a secret area in the chess board that... shouldnt exist, so if you go to the top triangle and just BARELY click the right edge of the triangle,then you go to the secret area.

1:14 The way you initially defined its movement, it already moves in straight lines. Its trajectory has no curve whatsoever. This is arguably as opposed to the movement shown at 1:12, assuming the pieces always go to the center of any cell they pass through or end up on, because then the paths shown would be zigzags with 120 degree bends.

[@theawakeneddoughfruit]

2:15 Title of video: So i made chess but the board is a diamond

[@PauxloE]

Interestingly, the bishop and rook moves are not symmetrical - i.e. they can't always just go back to where they came from (that's only possible if they changed color). The bishop can even get stuck in the corner (e.g. at 0:54 the top one). Horsey and Unicorn are symmetric (as are the strong rooks). (Horsey can't reach all locations - the corner pieces are not reachable, I think.) The strong queen can undo her bishop moves only when changing color, but can always undo her strong rook moves.

[@Marcuskwok-hn5yi]

7:07 isn’t the bishop just checking the king?

[@EdKolis]

So if a bishop moves one space, then wants to continue in the same direction on the next move, it can't, because that would be a rook move?

[@gravitrax3287]

But now bishops aren't locked to one colour

[@RodMigz08]

The rook didnt really make sense at first it moves through edges but then vertexis you should've just made it moving straight from edges on the sides and then moving straight vertexis from up and down. Or maybe just fix the original rook and keep the other rook. It'll be similar to bishops in that they both go forward the same way so also change bishop to move diagonal 4 ways with 2 diagnonal way upward just like the bottom.

[@loreleifertig7042]

Galaxy Chess: *PLACEABLES* Astronaut Spaceship Satellite Rock *PLACEABLE’S MOVES* Rocket: kills every piece that’s in its way in front of it. Astronaut: moves diagonally and can jump over 2 squares and kills whatever piece it lands on since astronauts explore space and the moon and the moon has low gravity and you can jump high so it kinda makes sense Spaceship: spreads rocks 1 square diagonally but only has a 20% chance of spreading and a 30% chance of dying. Satellite: can move in every square that a piece is standing on but it doesn’t kill the piece, instead it makes the piece lose a turn so it can’t move the the next time the other team moves, This can be very useful if your opponent only has a little amount of pieces. Rock: can capture any piece that moves in its place but disappears after any piece moves in the place but kills the piece that’s captured in it. *MOVES* Pawn: Can spawn a rock in front of itself but dies after doing it. Knight: Can spawn a spaceship 2 squares diagonally but only has 2 uses every round. Bishop: Can spawn an astronaut 2 squares in front of it. Rook: Can spawn a spaceship diagonally and horizontally but can’t spawn one behind him. Queen: Can spawn a rocket in front of it but can only do it after killing 3 pieces King: can spawn a satellite but only has 3 uses. *NOTES* Plz add this to one of ur vids 🥺

Hi ChessTraps the triangle chess link is broken can you fix it I get a SSL error meaning the a secure connection can’t be made to the server please fix it now

[@codahighland]

You don't need three coordinates. Pick one diagonal, then count triangles along it. If you rotate the board 60 degrees then it becomes obvious. I would consider getting rid of the weaker rook and allowing bishops to go in six directions.

[@isavenewspapers8890]

It's hard to make chess variants with regular pentagons or regular octagons, since you can't tile the plane (form a kitchen floor pattern) with them. You can introduce other tile shapes, or you can make the shapes irregular, or you can have the variant take place in 3D space, like on the cells of a soccer ball or something.
