king for a knight [browser]
You're the last of the great knights but you fell into a trap. Get the key and reach the exit in each level of the chess themed puzzler King for a Knight by Chase of Bass.
Thankfully some pieces are not smart. Some don't even move. It can get hard when 2 pieces are moving. I was fooled by the enemy preview one time. The piece just moved after the other one.
This definitely has more style than the knight puzzler that made it onto your top ten list last year... but it's a little less polished than it looks, because I'm softlocked. I moved off of a crate, the crate sank, and now I have no moves and the reset button doesn't appear to work. The R key doesn't do anything either... I let him know, apparently someone else found a similar problem which he says he fixed. Just look out for that!
Same encounter as Nat the Chicken from here. Can't say if it got repaired, since next time I got wiser and made two tempo moves to get the crate back up. First instance of a knight tempo manouvre ever :-)
If you are you looking for a solution or a walkthrough for one of the game links, please have a look in the comments.

Not hard, but a nice lunchtime diversion. Polished and well designed, especially considering it was for a game jam.

WARNING: It doesn't save your progress!
why you slamming the pieces on the table... :(

Reached the end....So dramatic!!!
Tip for people who are stuck on the last level: you don't have to take the bishop.

I crowned my knight :-)
The tremor effect is really annoying.
