87 days of making a new video game with Cursor and Claude AI, online free to play with no download required and high scores enabled. HTML5/Canvas/Websockets. Happy to answer questions! I can't believe I'm still going with this after almost 3 months, but I'm still having fun!

Today's game is a Chinese version of chess called "Jungle" or "Dou Shou Qi", it's basically chess with animals. The larger animals capture the smaller animals, with the exception of the Rat (smallest animal) which can swim in the water and capture the elephant (largest animal).
