Weapons


Lightsaber
COLOR: Blue
The default weapon, and the sole item Luke starts every game with.

Based on Anakin's lightsaber given to Luke in Episode IV.

Does as much damage as a Blaster, and hits foes in a three-tile wide, one-tile long arc in front of Luke.
Luke's Lightsaber
COLOR: Green
Unlocked after winning the game 5 times, at which point it will replace the normal lightsaber at the start of every game.

Based on the lightsaber Luke himself creates & uses in Episode VI.

While ostensibly a "better" lightsaber with Luke himself describing it as being "more balanced, more potent!", it seems to do exactly as much damage as the normal version.
Blaster
SHOTS: 30
A DL-44 heavy blaster pistol, based on the weapon used by Han Solo.
Blaster Rifle
SHOTS: 10
An E-11 Blaster Rifle, standard issue weapon of Imperial Stormtroopers.

Does 1.5x the damage of a Blaster.

Does as much damage as [UNVERIFIED] blaster shots.
Thermal Detonator
Damages enemies in all 9 tiles on & around where the Detonator is "thrown" (clicked).

Generally does as much damage as roughly 2-3 blaster shots.
THE FORCE
SHOTS: 15
RANGE: 3
A wave of energy that can stun enemies for a short time, grab hard-to-reach items, and affect parts of certain puzzles.

(Stunned enemies can still hurt you if you walk into them)

Given to Luke by finding the force ghost of Obi Wan, who will also replenish it after it has been used up (provided Luke is at full health).

After winning the game 10 times, THE FORCE will appear in Luke’s inventory at the start of every game, though he will still have to find Obi Wan to replenish it.

The only item in the game in ALL CAPS!
