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.

Woo! I mastered all of the Moonlight Peaks stickers!

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.

Starsiege: Tribes is a mostly forgotten spin-off of a forgotten game. It was a pretty fun team FPS back in the day and they've tried to update multiple times, but its never really stuck. #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!

One of my favorite Fortnite seasons was the recent Galactic Battle mini-season. I'd honestly love if there was a Star Wars mode all year-round.

It's also really nice to not have to worry about ammo.
