Rogue's Heist Lightsaberin'
Welcome to the Rogue's Heist demo page!
About the Game
Imagine if Guy Ritchie, the genius behind Wrath of Man, The Gentlemen, and The Man from U.N.C.L.E., got his hands on Star Wars. You’d end up with a galaxy far, far away filled with cocky droids, lightsabers sharper than your wit, and dialogue so snappy it could outtalk a droid. That’s the cinematic, laugh-out-loud adventure we’re crafting. Get ready for a story-driven parody that’s part epic saga, part tongue-in-cheek romp—and of course, a dash of learning, because why not?
The game is like an interactive movie where you’ll rub shoulders with the galaxy’s most colorful characters, make decisions that could either save your skin or land you in hot water, and leap into action faster than you can say “lightsaber duel.” This demo mini-game offers just a taste of what’s to come, featuring "lightsaberin’ training"—a crucial pit stop on our hero’s journey to whip his skills into shape before he faces down some serious baddies. It’s set to “difficult” mode, but hey, if you’ve got the guts (and the smarts), you might just breeze through it. And if not? Well, there’s always the next round.
This mini-game was cooked up using the latest AI tools: Midjourney and Nightcafe for the eye candy, Suno for the tunes, Elevenlabs for the silky smooth voices, and RIVE for character animation and as the game engine. It’s a heist of creativity, all pulled off without a hitch.
This mini-game may be simple, but it's more addictive than a late-night binge of your favorite crime caper (and the music's a proper earworm). Let us know what you think, and—just for a laugh—tell us how many tries it took you to beat those pesky raiders!

About Us
Rogue’s Heist isn’t just any game—it’s a trailblazing, AI-powered spectacle, the first of its kind to feature 100% AI-generated content without a single line of code. Think of it as the love child of cutting-edge tech and a mad scientist's daydream, pushing the limits of what AI can pull off in gaming and e-learning.
Developed by Beyönd, a small indie game-based learning studio with a mission to make eLearning cool again, Rogue’s Heist is more than just a game; it’s a proof-of-concept to show that learning doesn’t have to be about snooze-fests and boring PowerPoints. We’re here to prove that with the right mix of game mechanics and AI, eLearning can be as thrilling as a high-stakes heist. Plus, we’re giving young graduates a shot at greatness through remote internships with Virtual Internships. Think of it as their initiation into the gang. As Uncle Tobi would say: "Training mate. Proper training!"
But that’s not all—we’re also kicking off a Facebook-like community where AI, gaming, and education collide. And since even the best heists need a bit of funding, we’re launching a Kickstarter campaign to cover the costs, along with a contest that’s sure to have you plotting your next move. Details are below—no funny business, we promise.

For the record, this mini-game was designed by a team of three and took roughly 100 hours of work, balancing both content creation and game development. Special kudos to Hichem, who brilliantly integrated an HP bar for Sunshine using RIVE, effectively turning it into a full-fledged game engine—even though RIVE was originally intended for designing animations.
