an experimental chess variant created for the inaugural rectangles jam

the win condition is capturing the opponent's baby (central piece)

every piece has two polarities, each with its own move set

when a piece is moved, it switches polarity

i'll let you discover the rest of the nuances in game :)

i'm open to feedback and discussing theory
