Evaluation
Turbo Tunnel is a free-to-play arcade score-chaser that launched on June 1, 2018. The store description describes a complete, self-contained experience with no mention of planned updates, additional content, seasons, battle passes, or any post-launch content cycle. There are no DLC listings, no developer news posts, and no roadmaps. The game was designed and shipped as a finished product — an endless obstacle-avoidance game where the goal is simply to beat your high score. There is no evidence that Tall James Games has communicated any plans for future content, and the nature of the game (a minimal, arcade-style endless runner) is consistent with a game launched as a complete package.

About this game
Avoid obstacles as you accelerate through an endless tunnel of pain and destruction. What could go wrong?
The game is simple. Don't hit the spinning obstacles as you make your way through the tunnel. Move either left or right to avoid them, or jump through them if they have no center. Along the way, you'll have the opportunity to collect pickups that will help you in some way.
2x Pickup - Multiplies the next score addition by 2
3x Pickup - Multiplies the next score addition by 3
Extra Life Pickup - Gives you an extra life, up to a maximum of 3 extra lives
Boost Pickup - Gives you a temporary boost of speed
Shield Pickup - Gives you a temporary shield that allows you to safely pass through obstacles
You earn score by several different methods. First of all, you earn score constantly just by moving along in the tunnel. Secondly, you earn score by safely pass through obstacles. This method of scoring may be enhanced by the 2x and 3x pickups to score even more points when you pass through the obstacle. And lastly, if you collect an Extra Life Pickup when you already have 3 lives, you get a significant number of points rather than another life.
You will slowly accelerate through the tunnel, gaining speed until you lose all of your lives. Once you hit an obstacle when you have no extra lives remaining, you lose the game. Then, you can try again to beat your previous score.
