Silly Star Wars Spotlight: The Software Toolworks Star Wars Chess


Back in 1993, Software Toolworks released a Star Wars chess game! Don't let the epic cover art fool you, some parts of it ended up being deeply silly.

For example, you might be wondering, "How can C-3PO defeat Boba Fett?" Well, he takes Fett's blaster and lectures the bounty hunter about how dangerous they can be.

Threepio isn't the only droid stealing people's weapons though, as R2-D2 steals Vader's lightsaber and strikes him down with it.

Some of the animations are less goofy (as you'd expect, Han and Leia are more apt to just blast someone) but the droids really bring an important silliness to the game.

For #GXNailArt, I drew Amumu nails in the GJ color palette!

You better believe I follow Bandit Trap on Steam. The play test is fun! #BanditTrapSteam

They're a group rather than one character, but I really love the Yule Lads. They add a fun sense of mischief to the holidays. #JoltidayCharacter

Today’s #FanArtFriday is about Super Mario so I drew Roy Koopa!

Here’s my Cal Kestis from Jedi Survivor! I've had a lot of fun with the game so far. It builds on Fallen Order in some really fun ways.

The #BanditTrapTrailer is really fun! I love the slapstick, Home Alone vibes.

This week’s #FanArtFriday is all about Undertale so I made a stylized version of Sans!

A bit late for May the 4th , but here's a model of R2D2 I made in #Blender for the revenge of the 5th!

It might seem weird, but one of my favorite games for relaxing and feeling cozy is Civ 7 (generally going for a cultural or economic victory.)

It's just SO engrossing! #GJAsks
