Funnel Runners, a multiplayer game built around outrunning tornadoes with friends, has launched on Steam in Early Access. The announcement was published on July 16, 2026 by the developer under the name Titi.

What changed

  • Funnel Runners has moved from development into Steam Early Access
  • The team describes close to two years of development leading to this release
  • Players are invited to submit bug reports, feature requests, and general feedback via Discord and Steam reviews
  • The developer has framed Early Access as an explicit commitment to shaping the game alongside its community

The launch post is candid rather than polished — the team describes staring at the publish button for hours before clicking it, and attributes the project's survival in part to wishlist additions, playtest feedback, and community messages received during development.

No pricing, version number, or specific roadmap details are mentioned in the announcement. What is clear is that the studio considers this a beginning rather than a finished product, and is actively soliciting player input to determine what comes next.

For anyone who followed the game through playtests, the Early Access release is the first opportunity to play a publicly available build.
