I’m currently working on a Star Wars themed game. It features lore accurate lightsaber mechanics, such as slicing through whatever is in its way (when attacking) and deflecting blaster bolts. A force system is also in its early stages.

Newest addition: Freezing bolts mid-air

Here’s a couple of videos to demonstrate said features. Please note the place in the videos doesn’t represent the actual future game. It solely exists to develop the mechanics and features.

The longer video has no sound and less resolution:

Using the force: (Force push/pull, force shockwave, force crush)

Slicing moving parts (aka ‘droids’) & deflecting blaster bolts

The slicing happens on the client only, which results in essentially zero lag even with lots of droids.

Hope y’all like it!

Hello! What a fantastic project! Love how you have slicing and delfecting, also loreacurate lightsabre mechanics. Maybe feature some other combos or styles in the lightsabre combat game. Environmental interactions could make force powers more engaging for gameplay and gaming purposes. It could be pretty neat, for example, to have some sort of physics-based interaction where you’re able to fling objects around the environment or alter the surroundings using force during battles. PS — I look forward to watching this unfold!

These slicing mechanics look VERY GOOD AND REALISTIC! Great job on them! They are a great recreation of the lightsaber itself! How long did this take to make in total, and will it be used in a game?

Glad you like it!

The slicing and everything in the videos will be added to the game. It took me some days to completely finish and polish the slicing (because of the glowing melting metal part).
