For a time, the battlefield has occasionally been obstructed by giant slimes blocking our soldier's movement. The kingdom's scientists have been hard at work to pinpoint their weaknesses, and the giant slimes are now capture-able! But after capturing, the burst of slime affects our soldiers in ways we could never have imagined..
Conway Chess Rework
On game start
Four Conway Pieces are placed at the center of the board
Basic Rules
Conway Pieces are Always Conway-Like
After a Chess Piece takes a Conway-Like piece, it becomes Conway-Like
Conway-Like pieces survive if adjacent to exactly 2 or 3 other pieces, otherwise they die
Spawning Rules
A piece will spawn in an empty square if it is adjacent to exactly 3 pieces, and at least one is Conway-Like. The newly spawned piece is always a duplicate of one of the 3 nearby pieces
The piece to spawn is determined by various rules regarding the 3 nearby pieces, listed as follows starting with the highest priority:
Only Conway-Like pieces are considered when determining what to spawn
Two identical pieces take priority for spawning
Chess Pieces take priority over Conway Pieces
Piece color is determined by highest piece count of a given color in the nearby pieces
Chess Pieces of higher value take priority over lower value pieces
Font and UI has been tweaked to increase readability
