About the Game

Two fighters. One heartbeat between winning and losing. Pressure Points is a close-range duel of nerve and precision where every body tells you where to strike. Spot the exposed vital, commit, and fire before your opponent does. Hesitate, and you are the one going down.

READ THE BODY. STRIKE THE VITALS.

A glowing kill-point flares on the head, the throat, the heart. Hit it and the duel ends in an instant. Clip a limb and you have wasted your shot, and your opponent will not miss. This is not a grey-box aim trainer. It is a tense, stylish standoff with one rule: see the opening, take it, live.

FOUR WAYS TO DUEL

  • Quickdraw - The classic standoff. Five lights, a held breath, then DRAW. React the instant they go out and strike a fatal zone before the other hand clears leather. Face the self-balancing bot, or take it online.

  • Survival - Endless waves of opponents who weave, expose, and strike back. Break their vitals, dodge their counters, and push your streak as the pressure ramps.

  • Daily Challenge - One seeded run, identical for every player in the world that day. Compare your score, chase the top, come back tomorrow.

  • Word Gauntlet - A daily phrase shattered into letters. Shoot them in the exact order, as fast as your hands allow. One wrong letter ends the run.

ONLINE 1v1

Take the standoff online over Steam's relay (no IP sharing, NAT handled for you). Host a lobby, quick-match a stranger, or send a private code to a friend. Best-of 1, 3, or 5. Invite Steam friends straight from the overlay, and talk a little trash in match chat.

CLIMB THE BOARDS

Global leaderboards for every mode, with friends-only and "around you" views so you always know exactly where you rank. The Daily and Word Gauntlet boards reset every day for a fresh race to the top.

SHARP, READABLE, YOURS

  • A clean, minimalist dusk aesthetic built for split-second reads.

  • Full crosshair customization: style, size, and any RGB color.

  • Rebindable controls, adjustable sensitivity, colourblind modes, reduce-flashing, and a streamer mode that hides your lobby codes.

  • Steam achievements to chase, and a hidden showdown for those who look closely.

  • Plays on Windows, macOS, Linux, and Steam Deck.

The body never lies. Read it, and strike first.
