If you're looking for some Star Wars: Galactic Racer tips to help you either cross the finish line or defeat Kestar Bool, you're not the only one, because this game is hard. Developed by a team made up of folks who worked on Burnout, the speeds portrayed in Galactic Racer are wild, and one wrong move will see you obliterated in the side of a wall. Star Wars: Galactic Racer's campaign is all about trying to become the Galactic League champion, and that involves defeating Kestar Bool.
To get there, however, you should take heed of these top 10 tips. At the start of each campaign, you can choose between three vehicle types (unfortunately, podracing is restricted to special events): a landspeeder, speeder bike, or skim speeder. The landspeeder is the most approachable, balancing speed and resilience, but not excelling in any one area.
The speeder bike is the most agile, boasting a kart racer-style boost whenever it exits a drift, but it's a little weaker and tends to run wide in corners. Meanwhile, the skim speeder has the highest skill ceiling thanks to its Knife Edge ability which allows for greater control around corners and down narrow passages. Perfect starts in Star Wars: Galactic Racer are a tricky beast to tame.
The gist of it is fairly simple — when the race starts, ensure your throttle is inside the middle section of the meter — but nailing the timing here is tough. It changes depending on which vehicle you're using, but a semi-consistent method is to floor the accelerator immediately after the third light. If you don't get it bang on, adjust the timing slightly for your next race.
However, if you can't get the perfect start nailed down, don't stress; it doesn't actually do that much. Where games such as Mario Kart offer a significant boost for getting a perfect start, the boost in Galactic Racer is only minor. That said, if you get parts and abilities that have added bonuses when you do land a perfect start, practicing it is worthwhile.
The most important contributor to your build, however, is your racer style. There are 14 in the game in total, but you'll unlock them gradually. They range from fairly general, such as the Survivor style which is unlocked by default and focuses on keeping you alive, to the highly specialized, such as Stunt Runner, which is all about taking advantage of jumps and being airborne.
