Tenure Run is a browser-based endless runner game built entirely in a single HTML file. It serves as a fun, satirical, and educational metaphor for the modern academic publishing landscape, specifically focusing on the pressure to publish, Questionable Research Practices (QRPs), Article Processing Charges (APCs), and the Open Science movement.
