"Star Wars: Yoda Stories" is a game released on PC in 1997. It was a simple but lovely desktop game offering short playthroughs of random missions given to Luke by Master Yoda during the Dagobah training. It included visiting various planets of ice, forest and desert biomes, and meeting many OT characters, fighting enemies like stormtroopers and solving puzzles.

This week we are going to try to emulate the style of Yoda Stories in a mockup of an imaginary Star Wars game which could be a DLC or a sequel/prequel to Yoda Stories or a different game made in the same engine, or just a very similar one.

Make a mockup of a game that looks like Yoda Stories and is based on events and characters from any Star Wars movie, series, other video games, books, graphic novels.

Rules:

1) Canvas = 288x288 resolution and 32x32 tile grid (9x9 tiles).

2) Top down perspective.

3) Any Star Wars character as protagonist.

4) At least one tile featuring Star Wars character NPC, enemy, animal, monster, droid, wehicle, item, or piece of environment, or any recognisable thing.

5) Items, animals, wehicles, monsters etc. can be bigger than one tile, but must allign with the grid.

6) Dialogue boxes are allowed.


Actual tileset and sprites from the game can be found here or here. Use them for referrence or inspiration.


Example screenshots from the game:

Transparency - no.
Animation - no.
