Ole’ boring chess, who even likes it? Time to reinvent this beloved classic by making it way better…

well…. on the other hand, this whole Chess thing really has a “being good” problem and it’s high time that a bunch of people made way worse versions of chess or the idea of chess.

This event is a showcase of time-based media that considers “what is chess but better (or worse)” as part of Fantastic Arcade’s Media Jam #2 (you can still submit here!). All submissions will be played live at the event as well as streamed on Fantastic Arcade’s twitch page.

Fantastic Arcade’s mission is to celebrate, amplify and support the unique and underrepresented within indie games and beyond.
