Description
Battle Chess Plugin for RPG Maker MV/MZ:
https://psychronic.itch.io/psychronic-battle-chess-mvmz

We're excited to share the Battle Chess RPG Maker Plugin, a new addition for RPG Maker MV and MZ that brings a fully functional chess mini-game into your projects.

This is the first RPG Maker MV/MZ chess plugin (as far as we're aware) to feature a working AI.

This plugin was developed with the help of Psychronic-GPT (ChatGPT4o), as well as Claude 3.5 Sonnet over the course of 1 week.

Key Features:

Customizable Chess Experience:
Set custom images for the board, pieces, and background through the plugin parameters.

Choose between Player vs. Player, Player vs. AI, or AI vs. AI game modes.

Easy to Start:
Use the StartChessGame plugin command to initiate the chess mini-game.
Select the game mode and player color directly from the plugin parameters.

Visual Customization:
Display custom sprites and portraits for each piece, with adjustable offsets.
Enjoy capture animations for each piece.

Sound Effects:
Configure sound effects for moves, cancellations, and cursor movements.

Victory Conditions:
Customize victory messages and images that appear when a game is won.

AI Opponent:
The AI evaluates moves based on piece values, safety, and potential captures, providing a challenging opponent.
Interactive Gameplay:
Supports both mouse and keyboard inputs for piece selection and movement.
This plugin adds a strategic and action packed chess battle to your game, offering depth and replayability. Give it a try and see how it enhances your projects.

Yeah that would be cool! I'll see if I can figure that out as time permits, I'm a busy guy but I want everybody to get what they want out of the plugin :)

i meant like in the plugin you can change it so that the opponent has an extra knight on d4/ remove a pawn from your side of the battlefield or something and maybe have custom pieces with different move patterns for different gameplay

@AsherTheKidd, I'll see what I can do as time permits. I'll let you know when I've updated it. When you say "change how many pieces are on the board", what do you mean by that specifically?

i would like to have an ai difficulty changer for the enemies and also maybe change how many pieces are on the board if thats okay, sorry if its too much of an ask but id like to see it happen

Ok I just finished updating the AI in version 1.01 to be significantly more intelligent.

Ok @Kardy, I checked into this, and the only reason why the game over happens is because I put it in at the end of the demo project. If you don't want a game over to happen after a game, all you need to do is take out "Game Over" in the event. I'm going to update the project soon though to make the AI a bit smarter though.

Hi @Kardy, we'll look into this and fix it soon. This project was a really fun thing we did over the course of 1 week to see what AI could do when it was hot at the time, the tools are even better now, I will go through this relatively soon and fix that bug if I find it I'll update the comment here when I've done so.

I would really love to use that as a minigame, but as I was playing, I got a game over for winning the game."

There's offset settings for all that in the plugin parameters menu.
