Pressure
A downloadable game for Windows and Linux
About
Deeper and deeper into an infinite basement of increasingly difficult enemies, how deep can you go?
Pressure is a simple, high-score based arcade FPS with easy to learn but rewarding projectile mechanics
Search the maze-like floors for the green zone to drop into the next level and receive half your health back
Chaining combos of kills, hitting long range shots or bouncing shots off walls into enemies will also heal you
Enemies will hit harder and increase their spawns as you reach deeper and deeper floors
Watch out for harder enemy types as you go deeper
Controls
W, A, S, and D to move
Left click to shoot
Space to jump
Heal by entering the next stage (green zone), chaining combo kills, hitting a long range shot or bouncing shots off of walls into enemies
You can interupt an enemy charging up to quickly shoot again by shooting it while it is charging/flashing

the mechanic is fun but the sameness dulls the experience after a few minutes. some upgrades to make the gun do more bounces or shoot multiple balls or even some wacky stuff like auto shoot (no need to click mouse button) would extend the gameplay. i almost feel a version with no enemies would be nice where you have to bounce the shot in properly to advance would work better.
thanks for the game!
