Pretty amazing stuff! Right from the get-go, the Star Wars parody intro truly sets a fun tone. The music, font, and story is very much on-point there. The use of color really helps highlight the hazards. The sound effects sound straight out of a sci-fi film without having too much of a "stock sound" feel and the warp effects emphasize the sheer speed of the ship.
I also do not mind the lack of a front mirror. The perspective switching is very snappy. I wondered if it could be improved with a quick camera swing, but honestly that would no doubt be too disorienting.
I only have two nitpicks. First, the main menu. The buttons are too small for the frame, and it's too spaced out. Second, I wish the rear display was slightly bigger.

Thank you for playing and for the positive feedback—it’s much appreciated! I’m glad you enjoyed the Star Wars parody intro, especially since the game name itself was inspired by the Millennium Falcon’s Kessel Run also😊.
Regarding the rear display, I intentionally kept it small, but I agree it could be slightly larger, especially if the game expands. As for the camera swing, we actually tried it initially, but it ended up either too slow or too disorienting indeed, so we stuck with the snappy cut to camera.
No worries about the nit-picks, all feedback is valuable 😊! We have noted them. UI feedback is useful, and I’ll consider the menu layout and display size for future improvements.
Thanks again for the thoughtful comments and for taking the time to play!
