Top comment decides next move, legal or not | day 37: The fractal image at a0 now has a gravitational pull. Each iteration all pieces move one square closer to it unless another move is applied to it.

That was truly painful to edit, hopefully I didn't miss anything
And I fixed the UV light effect on the mold

zuck gets sucked into the gravitational pull and clogs it (no more pull until something happens to zuck)
Rest of the pieces are confused because they cant see the zucker
- Theorizing how op could visually represent this….
  1 slightly translucent/faded Zucker where he is right now
  1 small zuck in the fractal image
  1 big transparant zuck edited like a high card from standard pack of cards with a twirl effect.
  
  well, he's not in the fractal image is he? just clogging it
- Should I do another pull or just move zuck this move?
  
  Zuck gets sucked in so another Pull is implied.
  The reason he might still be visible on the board and the fractal image is because the other pieces dont see him move (i guess technically they see him on his original location unaffected by the pull)
  But of course we are watching from your perspective not zuck or the other pieces. Creative freedom means you can rule however.
  
  OC replied so I'm gonna go with that
  Zuck is defederated but other moves can still effect him, does the pull count as a move of zucc or of something else? maybe the fractal image?
  
  I have no idea and i fear things will only get more complex and bizar as they continue. But thats exactly why i love this game so much. Its modern art.
  Btw I originally intended the mold to grow independently from each infected square and never stated that it is lethal or otherwise dangerous. But again your interpretation of a comment is part of the fun.
  I also don’t want you to get burned out like the original? the public can be very demanding and what your doing every day takes much appreciated dedication.
  
  I don't think I implied the mold was dangerous did I? I just put that the the piece had fallen in the post
  And at least for now it's taking very little of my time to do the moves, unless it's something like moving every piece or playing the game of life lmao, and even that is mostly my fault. This game is edited in gimp so there isn't any non-destructive editing, and the effects are quite basic, so when I need to move all the pieces I also need to move all the effects on them like glowing, the way the layers are set up is also inefficient and has circular issues, like needing a bit of stain under the king but also above the "lights out" layer. if you look at the stain on the top left you can see where I just cut away the shape of the king. and all the mold layers are unnamed so I have to go though them all to find the right one, I could fix this all if I named and ordered the layers properly
  I have been thinking of switching to krita but it's a lot of work to migrate the game
  The hardest part is usually interpreting the comment rather that the editing, and the difficulty editing is really my own fault, as I said above
  
  Then i guess thats a language mistranslation on my own part. I understood fallen as died by it.
  But then again we sacrificed the queen who was blown up to bits days before and spawned the mold so not sure if mortality is even a game-mechanic.
  
  nah probably me, I didn't word it very well, but it is anarchychess though, so there aren't rules for any of this lmao
  
  move the zuck and give the other pieces confusion stars. What i meant with confused was that the other pieces are confused that they dont moved even tho they "should"
