The team behind STAR WARS: Galactic Racer ™. Small studio. Big ambition. @SWGalacticRacer

Guildford, UK
It’s finally launch day for STAR WARS: Galactic Racer™. Three and a half years ago, Fuse Games was a handful of people with a big idea. Since then, our small team has poured their hard work and talent into our first game, and that big idea comes to life today. Fusing our love of racing and our love of STAR WARS. A run-based racing adventure where high-speed action collides with risk, reward and consequence. Here's a personal message from the team.

Fuse’s Lead Concept Artist, James Lewis-Vines on the process of realising our hero and protagonist, Shade: “For Shade, we added a prominent visor which is commonly seen in motorcross helmets. Not only did this fit Shade’s racer aesthetic, but also appealed to the characters core archetype: the mysterious stranger. All of Shade’s outfit variants take inspiration from branches of real world vehicular racing culture, as well as historical references from Roman charioteers who would sport coloured capes and headbands to identify and rally support from spectators. This felt particularly fitting for Shade, who is trying to get recognition as an unknown underdog of the Galactic League.”

Galactic Racer is so goated cause the devs understood this. Gordy Haab’s score only kicks-in as you near the end of / as you enter / your final lap
I'll always love how the podracing scene has no score until the very end when things are getting close. It lets the sound design be the music as you fall into a trance, enthralled by this lethal racing so much that you feel it in your bones.

Fuse’s Lighting Artist, Dora Holloway, discusses the importance of lighting the caverns of Crait: “Crait’s iconic colour palette provided some challenges. It was crucial to honour this planet, but we had to field the issues of intense reds within a physically based lighting set-up. Red tends to absorb all other light colours, making it difficult to be intentional with the mood. We worked with the Environment and Technical Art team to map out dark spaces, and to ensure that the crystals and rocks didn’t overpower the natural light filtering in through the surface.”
