The game is played from a side-scrolling perspective, with players advancing through stages as Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, and Chewbacca, each offering different weapons and handling. Levels mix platforming, shooting, close-range attacks, vehicle sections, and boss encounters. Players collect health and weapon pickups, manage limited resources, and progress through checkpoints; some stages include hidden paths and special sequences.

Luke Skywalker

One of the main playable characters, using a lightsaber and blaster as he advances through most ground-based stages.

Han Solo

A playable character with reliable ranged firepower, useful for clearing groups of enemies from a distance.

Chewbacca

A playable character with strong sustained damage and useful performance in certain combat-heavy sections.

Learn enemy spawn points and jump timing first, since many deaths come from platforming mistakes. Use ranged attacks to thin out crowded areas before moving forward, and save health pickups for difficult boss or hazard sections. If a stage allows character switching, choose the character whose attack style best fits the stage layout.
