Hi, Thomas. You can get mice that have vibration feedback like console controllers do. So, when you turn that baby on and extend you saber-ness, you could program some force feedback vibration effects so you feel it power up in your hand. And, of course, when you strike an opponent and it sparks and crackles, you can render that through force feedback as well.

Using a mouse to move the saber around and attack would probably feel natural. You probably would feel as if you were combating someone. James from Alchemy wrote: > See?
