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.

One of my favorite gaming masks is Starkiller's Sith Stalker helmet from The Force Unleashed #GJAsks

It seems like such a no-brainer to give Sonic an entire theme park land like Super Nintendo World.

Imagine going to Angel Island section to see the Chaos Emeralds or a ride where you have to escape from the Death Egg.

My favorite #HorrorMovie series is Evil Dead! I love the blend of horror and comedy that is (for the most part) one of the series trademarks.

I'd love to have video game-style healing power-ups like the Maxim Tomato! #GJAsks

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.

Funnily enough, the #TeamShooter I've been playing the most recently is Fortnite. (Specifically, I've been playing Blitz on a team with friends.)

The Super Mario All-Stars' versions of the NES Mario games are some of the first remakes I played and I'll always feel nostalgic for them. #GJAsks

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

Day 31 of #Joltober is #Pumpkin so I drew a Jack O’ Goomba from Super Mario Galaxy!
