Tunnel Runner Redux

Step Inside the Maze

• Forget looking down from above—in Tunnel Runner Redux, you’re inside the labyrinth.

• Every twist, turn, and shadow feels real, with danger lurking just around the corner.

• Your mission is straightforward, but far from easy:

1. Find the Key hidden somewhere deep in the maze.

2. Locate the Exit before the creatures known as zots catch you.

3. Avoid losing all your lives—because once they’re gone, it’s Game Over.

• Armed only with your map and your reflexes, you’ll have to navigate mysterious doors and unpredictable paths.

• Some doors might lead to safety... others, to dead ends.

A Faithful Yet Upgraded Remake

Inspired by the classic 1980’s Tunnel Runner, this remake keeps the core gameplay intact while enhancing the experience with modern improvements:

+ GAME1: Classic pre-set mazes.

+ GAME2: Endless random mazes.

+ GAME3: Customizable mazes—adjust size, door count, corridor complexity, and starting difficulty.

• Enhanced Graphics and Sound – New designs bring zots and tunnels to life.

• Helpful Resources – A built-in help section offers basic guidance plus tips for mastering GAME3 and options.

Developer’s Notes

• Tunnel Runner Redux began as a personal challenge: building a fast, mobile-friendly pseudo-raycaster engine in CF25’s Android Exporter.

• The maze’s fluid, first-person feel demands processing power, so frame rates may vary by device.

+ Default Resolution is set to 5PX for balanced performance.

+ Use Automatic Resolution mode to let the game adapt for smoother play.

+ Full details are explained in the HELP menu.

Play Anywhere

• If your phone struggles to keep pace, the PC version offers the same gameplay at significantly higher speeds, with keyboard controls for precision movement.

FAQ

Q: How is it different from the original Tunnel Runner?

A: While Tunnel Runner Redux stays true to the original’s core gameplay, it enhances everything with modern improvements. The graphics and sound are upgraded for immersion, stereo audio lets you hear zots approaching from any direction, and there are more game modes—including endless random mazes and fully customizable ones. It’s the same thrilling concept, but sharper, faster, and more flexible.

Q: Who are the zots and what do they do?

A: Zots are the maze’s relentless hunters. They roam the corridors and will chase you if you cross their path. If they catch you, you lose a life, and once all your lives are gone, it’s game over. They get faster and more aggressive as you progress, so staying alert is essential.

Q: How do I win a level?

A: To complete a maze, you first need to locate the key. Once you have it, you must find the exit door before the zots catch you. Without the key, the exit won’t open, so exploring thoroughly while avoiding danger is crucial.
