Z-317, codenamed "Eyefestation" is a hostile monster in Pressure which forces players to look at it in order to kill them.

Appearance

Eyefestation is a black malformed bull shark with a hook in one of its fins. It has numerous bright green glowing eyes of various sizes across the top of its snout and along its body. These eyes constantly produce rays of green light, which Eyefestation uses to hunt its prey.

Mechanics

Eyefestation has a chance to appear in large rooms with windows that do not have sea mines, casting rays of green light from its eyes. While the player is in view of Eyefestation's gaze, their camera will be drawn towards it, forcing the player to attempt to look away and causing them to take constant damage if eye contact is made. After the player leaves the room that it is in, Eyefestation will swim away.

Notes

  • Occasionally, Eyefestation will try to telepathically communicate to trick players into looking at it.
  • Using a Flash Beacon on Eyefestation will enrage it, causing its pull to be stronger and some banger ost to start playing.
  • Eyefestation spawns after the door to the room it’s in is opened, and will despawn after the next room’s door is opened.
  • Eyefestation cannot spawn in rooms where sea mines are outside the window.

The Ridge

For more information, see: The Ridge

Eyefestation's behavior and mechanics do not deviate while in the ridge, appearing in large rooms with windows, however, due to the constant flickering light present in the Ridge, as well as potentially distracting players with its communication, an Eyefestation encounter in the ridge may leave players more vulnerable to an Angler or Pandemonium encounter.

Strategy

In order to prevent one's life from being drained, the only way to combat Eyefestation's ability is to forcefully move one's cursor in the opposite direction of the pull. Due to the fact that Eyefestation swims away when the door to the next room is opened, it would be in one's best interest to try and get to the next room as soon as possible.

Since Eyefestation's line of sight is done with raycasting, hiding in places that block its vision will cause the pull to stop until Eyefestation regains vision of the player. Hiding in hiding spots also works to avoid its gaze.

Trivia

  • It is said that Eyefestation kills its victims by firing radiation through a person's optic nerve, effectively "melting" their brain.
    • This is because Eyefestation was an early experiment from the B.U.P.W.M program, a program designed to create procedures that allow humans to perform the same feat.
      • B.U.P.W.M is short for Blows Up Pancakes With Mind.
  • Eyefestation can presumably communicate telepathically with humans, replicating voices of those close to them to manipulate them into looking at it.
    • This implies that Eyefestation can also read the minds of humans.
  • It is said that Eyefestation’s internal organs are also infested with moving eyes.
