The demo slipping on nothing at 2:28 is my favourite

I loved working on it, but the 4th wall break joke is really out of place and serves little to no purpose. You still are improoving though, so hopefully after holidays You will be able to master animation and directing

I love this. It gets better and better as the video goes on.

definitely still is not gonna get the #1 spotlight for saxxies but its one of the better sfm animations

The only major errors I could see were a floating kunai and the spy hit by the bomb was killed by an invisible shotgun. Other than that, everything was amazing and the idea of the animation was very clever. Hope it does good.

This makes me wish a board game like that existed

3:23 my god their freak out faces

i voted this for the saxxy's

Amazing, might want to fix the scene where the heavy and pyro fight, but I can't wait to see this

1:20 This is the best death in history of SFM

2:15 when you market garden someone in the middle of the entire enemy team

Burninheck (pyro): 3:23 Buttseck (spy): *screaming* 3:23 Hoovy tube (medic): 3:25 Sniper the Noob (sniper): 3:26 A dummie (engineer): 3:34 *THE BOSS* : 3:35

I like the reference to the fedora chronicles at 1:20

Just the editing is a freaking joy forever!

Used to watch this video everyday when it came out, still love it

This should be a game mode

I now want chess with the tf2 chareters.

An interesting idea of sniper and engie playing chess game,and pieces end up sniper's smile.

Very creative. I like the concept :D

So I think I'll mention one error I don't think anyone has mentioned, and that is that the blizzard breather is team colored, not black. It's an error that occurs in sfm when the team colored texture isn't present, and can be a pain in the ass to fix. God knows I've spent countless hours trying to fix these types of errors. Usually you have to replace the texture file, and sometimes you have to edit it yourself.

Nice job replacing engi's mega jump with the thermal thrusters, really gives it a more tf2 feel

The idea is astonishing.

Good luck man And keep this good shits

You are amazing at what you do

Nice work my friend

Great job!

You finished it! :D

good job mate

The memorable thing I could think of from this is the use of Dmitri Shostakovich's Waltz No. 2 throughout the video

nice job this was a neat animation

I love how everyone acts like they can understand pyro. Pyro: hmmmm hmmm hmmm Soldier: ok

Chess Fortress, it isn't even fucking strategic, it's about fucking over the enemy with everything you have in seconds

This is one fun chess game

The fact he mentioned trolldier is nice

This gets all my votes

Nice idea for a game

2:39 playing against melee snipers

It was pretty good, I would criticize but it looks like everyone pointed out the one I was about to say and I would've sounded like a broken record. Nice my dude

Very interesting idea

References of the live and let spy at 1:18

THEY'RE ALL HACKING!

If anyone cares, the song is Waltz no 2 shotakovich

The tf animation never gets old

That was nice

Now this is TFC

This is the most complicated game of chess ever made

Honestly, the Red Pyro, Engineer, and Soldier was really OP.

This is basically what competitive should be

Why and how are your animations so amazing

Alright im back and its been 11 months almost a year and looking back at this it is a great concept but it left on a cliff hanger sooooo Part 2?

Wow cool video 👍👍

my fav entry

*now wait till someone makes a chess spin-off based off of this.*

Calmest TF2 match:

It's like watching little kids play chess.

Awesome video I've loved this version like other ( I'll vote for you for the Saxxy don't worry) But I wanna know what waltz no2 Remix it is ? Also if you can help me to rendering one of my videos it should be nice !

1:18, Live and Let Spy Reference. Like if you noticed.

I really like the idea and the execution ain’t half bad either

A regular tf2 match within a chess game within a shack within an animation within an animation within a computer within real life

I think you should make your own sfm character and appear in skits like the winglet

That's such a cool way to play chess

im learning the music in the background on the violin

This Game Is Really Balanced

They are both cheating. They move multiple prices at the same time

Pyros eyes when the 4th wall broke

I like how they have baby eyes

The chees Players: us Chess: a character we choose

just a normal day in tf2

Whats with the pyro changing cosmetics?

in this chess game were all puppets till the end

So cool

The choppy, shdden animation qorks quite well heer, and I like the deception of "Chess" here. You definitely need more practice, but i'd give ya a VOte for style and creativity. And I;m serious, too, this was fast paced, action packed, and just plain funny.

You forgot the strongest piece.The aimbot. It can kill anything on the board

0:32 nope.avi but it's scout

I have a feeling that tf2 chess would be an actual thing and I would totally play it

Nice

Game in game in game

The way that the Blu Spy murdered the Sniper liked looks the same way the Winglet did it? Like when Red Spy stabbed the Engi, the same pose and jump too Was it reference or ??? I was just wondering

So, it’s more like Hive than chess...

3:01

I loved this so fucking much

A error when blu spy kills the sniper there is no sound

It played out about as chaotically as regular TF2

Wait 2 crit stickys and he still alive

why did spy hold hes revolver with no poesed fingers? 1:09

1:26 I caught that negative light. Be sure to not use spline with lights.

Yeah the dummie

Not sure they are playing Chess, I think they're playing Dragon Poker. ;-)

Good game)

Awesome!! Maybe a tad too long though, it would have been more efficient in 3min I believe! But overall it's a great anim c:

You should remaster this video

it's a simple mistake but the first heavy, the blu one has a habit of losing and regaining his hat in certain scenes, outside of that little gripe, I think with a little more work on making the animations a little more fluid and some lighting adjustments you could easily be looking at a saxxy next year!

If the chess game is sale i will buy one

This entire video is a normal Mach in tf2 tbh

Who else likes the chest game version from 2 years ago imstead of this one uploaded last year . _.

Who ever said no wow with that word

I wish this game was a real board game!

Моя любимая короткометражка

Aww, great, until the ending. Breaking the fourth wall is usually nicec, but in this case I'd just have preferred a solid ending where one of the players win
