About Funnel Runners
Funnel Runners drops you into a storm‑ravaged city where an approaching F5 tornado threatens to tear the map apart. You and up to seven teammates must collect data, scavenge vehicle parts, fuel, and tools, and repair a van before the weather overwhelms you. The game uses realistic graphics and a first‑person view to make every gust, siren, and falling debris feel immediate.
Each playthrough randomizes the environment, weather patterns, item locations, and vehicle problems, ensuring no two sessions are identical. You can tackle the chaos solo or cooperate online, sharing gadgets and splitting up to cover more ground while battling the ever‑intensifying storm.
01 / THE GUIDE
Core Gameplay
Players navigate a collapsing city in first‑person perspective, gathering scattered vehicle parts, fuel, and tools. The primary objective is to repair the van before the tornado becomes unstoppable, and the random placement of resources forces fresh strategies each session.
Storms spawn randomly and grow stronger over time, tearing buildings apart piece by piece. When a structure is destroyed, its items disappear, so players must adapt quickly and prioritize movement toward intact areas.
- Collect nearby vehicle parts before the storm destroys their locations.
- Keep moving to avoid being caught in a sudden gust.
02 / THE GUIDE
Dynamic Weather
The weather acts as an active antagonist, with tornadoes and storms appearing at random intervals. Their intensity escalates as the match progresses, increasing the risk of being swept away.
Buildings collapse gradually, and once destroyed they no longer contain items. Early exploration becomes crucial for gathering resources before they become inaccessible.
- Watch the sky for visual cues of incoming tornadoes.
- Seek shelter in intact structures while you collect essential items.

03 / THE GUIDE
Scavenging & Van Repair
Scavenging focuses on locating vehicle parts, fuel, and tools scattered throughout the city. These resources are required to fix the van, which is the primary means of survival against the storm.
Each playthrough randomizes the placement of these items, so players must explore efficiently and share findings with teammates to complete repairs in time.
- Communicate discovered item locations to teammates promptly.
- Balance scavenging with staying out of the storm’s path.

Online Co‑op
You can team up with seven other players online, sharing gadgets and splitting up to cover more ground. Cooperation allows faster collection of resources and coordinated van repairs.
Solo play is also supported, letting a single player experience the full challenge without teammates while still facing the same dynamic weather threats.
- Assign roles—one player gathers parts while another monitors storm changes.
- Use voice chat or quick messages to coordinate item drops.
