Game Description

Chess, but you replace your entire army with a royal shotgun.


The Black King has been dispossessed of everything...

Everything except their royal shotgun.

His wrath shall be his undoing, yet he cares not.

In his dark folly, bits of white pieces will fly.


A unique turn-based strategy roguelite based on the timeless checkboard classic.


Shotgun King: the Last Checkmate was originally Punkcake Délicieux collective entry to the Ludum Dare #50.

The jam version was entirely made in under 72 hours for the occasion...


and it won! Out of 1900+ entries in the Jam category, it got 1st place overall, as well as 1st place for Fun and 2nd place for Innovation.

The full post-jam version contains a new story game mode with multiple difficulties, a reworked interface, accessibility settings, some rebalancing, and more unique new cards!
