About This Game

Two teams of four face off to see which team is tactically superior. Every person has the same loadout - a sniper rifle and a pistol. Every death racks up the team's respawn timer. Every play makes all the difference. In Under Pressure, you will absolutely never feel calm.
Disclaimer: this game is not for the faint of heart.

Each team has to protect two flags. Once both flags are gone, you lose. To make things worse, if someone dies on your team, your whole squad's respawn timer goes up. Around here, the better team wins - not the better player.
Because of this, you're gonna need top notch communication. If your team pushes for a flag too soon, you risk running up your respawn timer. Push too late and that might just cost you the game.
Move together. Win together.

On these battle fields, every person has the same loadout. That means leveling up doesn't unlock you any new weapons or new skills. There aren't any pay-to-win loopholes here either. You just have to be good. And it's hard to get good. Sorry.
On the bright side, once you actually get good, you're allowed to feel great about yourself. Because you earned it. Genuinely.
But don't ever get too comfortable. You never know when the pressure will come knocking.

You'll be competing on remote islands with the cameras rolling. Playing well earns you xp and cash which can be used to pick up gear to customize your character. But this isn't weenie hut general. It takes a long time to look cool. Just ask Chuck Norris.
Make your yourself into an icon by customizing your:
- Helmet
- Outfit
- Jetpack
Oh and to make it worse, when you lose a match you only get half the cash and xp.
Don't lose.

We understand this game isn't for everyone. It's hard being Under Pressure. At this point in the description, all the goofy goobers and dinklebergs have bailed out and purchased Hello Kitty Island Adventure. But, if you're still reading, you're awesome just like our community. You're itching for a challenge.
With this being a new and niche kinda game there's no telling how many people are online looking for a match. If you run into an issue with finding people to crush, don't worry. Join our discord directly from the main menu and setup real, scheduled matches with some of the toughest people around. Just like you.
And hey, you might even be able to put together a decent squad.

Under Pressure is currently in Early Access. That means there aren't as many maps and unlockables as we would like to have in the game. Currently, there's only one map and a little less than 30 unlockables. But that's going to change.
By the end of the summer, we will have four completely unique maps and over 100 unlockables. We also plan on improving the leveling system so you can unlock special gear once you hit certain milestones.
Also, we will be tirelessly working to fix any bugs and issues that people may run into. Bugs ruin the fun. We can't have that.
If you run into any issues, contact us at [email protected] or let us know straight in our discord. We'll get back to you ASAP.
So what are you waiting for?

User Reviews
Keep in mind this review is being written on the second day of the game being in early access with multiple updates planned in the near future. Under Pressure is an arena-ish style, capture the flag shooter. The main goal of the game is to work together as a team to capture the other teams, sequentially revealing flags and bring them back to your spawn. Your only weapons are a sniper rifle and a pistol that have limited ammo, pistol is about 3 shots to kill sniper is about 1 shot. Whats good about this game: It has a nice feel to it. When you shoot someone with the sniper its just satisfying for some reason if that makes any sense at all. The physics are nice compared to some other indy shooters iv'e played and the sniper has a cool animation that seems to happen randomly. It is quite polished with not too many bugs (there are some that I will get to) and it is very easy to run, not demanding on your PC at all. I'd expect most laptops/notebooks would be able to run this game just fin...
Greatest game I've ever played. 10/10. Creator is nice guy. Shoutout to Thero.
Lack of players, and if you do find one they have played a lot more than you and it becomes a very unfun experience.
Great game but dead player base. I suggest that you lower the price and give the people who paid the original price a special reward.
While it's a very good game, there are flaws. -Good 1. Really nice and talented dev. 2. Interesting in-game mechanics 3. Great take on the CTF gamemode -Needs work 1. Not a great start to the FPS genre (You might need past experience to have fun) 2. As of review, keybinds cannot be changed 3. The map is very large, making it annoying for 1v1 matches. As of this time I can enjoy myself for the most part and I am hopeful for the future.
Under Pressure is a really fun and unique FPS game which only has Snipers and Pistols which balance the game more when everyone has the same weapons. The developer is really close to his comunity and responsive But you need to get in contact with people to play which is kind of sad and lack of players. I really recomend this game if you want to have fun with friends and play competitive!
In reality this game has a lot of potential especially as time goes on and more people start joining and the little bugs start being fleshed out THE GOOD: -fun -exhilarating -original -plus dev is cool guy THE BAD: -small bugs here and there, but hey bugs are every were in real life and real life is REAL
A great game, I wish there were more player though!
Great game with a small community, joining the discord makes finding matches easier
