Fairylion: A Chess RPG

Hey, I found this game to be really fun! You combine the Into the Breach and Chess gameplay really well. Special pilots having an ability to replace default pieces with new pieces is a great way to introduce them without overwhelming the player.

I wanted to give some feedback:

Bugs/Issues:

• Pawns are able to en passant Kings.
• You are able to click on enemy pieces and move them when it is your turn.
• I think it needs to be mentioned in the help menu that putting pilots on row 2 automatically puts them into a Pawn.
• Health/XP behavior seems inconsistent: Special Pilots seem to keep their Health/XP across runs while the game is open, but they completely reset when you close and reopen the game.

Suggestions:

• A gallery to view pilots you have seen so far would be helpful to plan how to use them, like in other roguelites.
• When you lose/draw the game, there should be a button to exit to main menu.
• I think Health/XP system is cool but Special Pilots should not keep their Health across runs. Keeping the XP/abilities makes sense to give the player a better chance but keeping health cripples runs or makes you want to waste runs just to heal pilots up for future runs.

Hope you will continue to develop this game!
