Here are the rules:
Both players' a, b, g and h pawns are now given the ability to hypnotize other pieces even pawns.
They are called hypnotic pawns.
These pawns, however, cannot hypnotize the opponent's hypnotic pawns but they can capture them, so are your pieces. So only the opponents pieces and other pawns can be hypnotized
Hypnotic pawns move like the king making them more deadly (In their first move they can move two squares.) and these pawns cannot capture pieces except the opponent's hypnotic pawns but they can hypnotize the opponent's pieces by having them placed in the sight of the hypnotic pawn. They can hypnotize as much as they want.
(Note: If it is online, then the hypnotic pawn must be highlighted or else both players have no idea if this is a normal pawn or hypnotic. If not, try to touch the border of a square maybe the left, right, top and bottom border of a square so that you cna remember this as a hypnotic pawn.)
Once you hypnotize a piece, the opponent doesn't have the right to move their own piece anymore meaning the opponent can't move their peice and instead you can move that hypnotized piece and make that piece capture the opponent's pieces and has the ability to check the king. But the opponent has also the right to capture their own piece that got hypnotized.
The unique part is that if you hypnotized an opponent's pawn, the pawn reverses it's movement, meaning the pawn goes backwards now and captures backwards diagonally just like your pawn. It can promote to a piece but still recognized as their former color (E.g: the white hypnotized pawn promotes into white hypnotized queen.)
And if you forgot what piece you hypnotized, try to change the position of piece or change where it is facing. Like for example having the hypnotized piece to be touching the border of a square instead of placing it in the center of a square or having a knight facing the direction such as left, right, back and front.
If it is online, you don't really need to change the position or where it's facing. Maybe the developers can highlight it so that both players know it's hypnotized (Possibly changing the piece in the opponent's color then having a transparent image of your color piece)
Also, you can have your piece unhypnotized safely by having your hypnotic pawn placed near the hypnotized piece. Meaning, you have to place your hypnotic pawn that is seeing the. hypnotized piece to have consciousness again. If you unhypnotize your pawn, then that pawn will move to the front in your perspective and capture diagonally forawrd in your perspective.
But the first hypnotic pawn to see the piece is dominant but temporary if the piece went too far away from the reach of the hypnotic pawn so that it has the chance to be hypnotized/unhypnotized. For example, your hypnotic pawn hypnotized the opponent's piece first but in the next move the opponent's hypnotic pawn sees the hypnotized piece but can't unhypnotize it because there is your hypnotic pawn patrolling it or guarding it from unhypnosis and vice versa, or when your hypnotized piece is out of sight for your hypnotic pawn then it has the chance to be unhypnotized and vice versa.
But if your piece has been seen by your hypnotic pawn and the opponent's hypnotic pawn at the same time, then your piece is unhypnotized and vice versa.
A cool feature is that to win the game you have to hypnotize the oppoent's king and bring the king to where it can be captured.
The opponent will try to block of any threat and block off it's way to your territory but the king can actually capture your pieces and does what a hypnotized piece can do so the only way to have the king being saved is unhypnotize tthe king
But if there is nothing to block or remove the attacker of the hypnotized king then it's "Hypnotized Checkmate." That is because the opponent can't move it's king. Even if you unhypnotize the king, the threat is still there and on the next move it will be captured.
If you have questions with the rules, please let me know.
