Q-UP

Sick of long queues, unfair matchups, and arbitrary reflex tests? Try Q-UP, the coin flipping eSport. It's one part clicker, one part multiplayer strategy game, one part demented capitalism simulator, and 100% completely random.

About the Game

From the twisted minds that brought you Universal Paperclips and Babble Royale comes a timeless tale about numbers going up and going down, the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat, reverse mergers, spooky action at a distance, and a 3-ton whale with a day job.

50/50. Totally random. Totally fair.

You sit down after a tough day to play your favorite video game. Of course you have to wait 10 minutes to get into a match. When you finally do get into a game, you're up against the sweatiest kids you've ever seen. Meanwhile, the idiots on your team have apparently never even heard of a keyboard. After that guaranteed loss, it's another 10 minute wait just to get into a game with someone who screams at you the whole time and then leaves halfway through. As usual, you played your "favorite" video game for the entire night and the only thing you got was mad. 

Sound familiar? We've been there. That's why we made Q-UP! Every single round of Q-UP is determined by the result of a coin flip, so every single round of Q-UP is completely fair. No more smurfs ruining your games. No more inters. No more tryhards. No more stupid reaction times or mechanics. Just perfectly fair matches, every single time.
