Ultima Chess Updated Gameplay: Virus vs Ancients

Not a while ago, we talked about implementing chess mechanics, and chess AI, and shared an early preview of the Ancient faction gameplay. At that time, we didn't have all the characters ready yet, and the demo looked a bit raw, but it was important for us to share this progress with you.

So far, we have finished working on two factions, namely the Virus and the Ancients, tweaking animations, effects, and AI behavior (we are currently working on the Stockfish implementation).

We also recorded a video demonstration of the gameplay inside Unreal Engine 5 of these two factions, with the full setting of all the characters and adjusted game mechanics.
