Pressure Lite
Pressure Lite, was a limited-time version of Pressure meant to tide players over until the main game released.
Overview
Pressure Lite was opened on May 16th as a way for Pressure fans to enjoy the game until release. Development was limited after launch, mainly being bug fixes and additions to Hoppy Mode. There were no badges or rewards that impacted the full game.
Pressure Lite had a few features that were not present in the Final Test, the main one being Wall Dwellers. Outside of a small test, this was the first time players were able to interact with them. Additionally, this was the first time player could experience the Gauntlet.
On (TBD), Pressure Lite closed in order to prepare for the release of the full game.
Gameplay
The gameplay of Pressure Lite revolved around the player advancing through as many rooms as they could while avoiding several Monsters. Unlike the full game, Pressure Lite had little-to-no unique room generation, with only a small pool of similarly-themed rooms able to be spawned.
Gameplay Tweaks
Pressure Lite had several small gameplay tweaks. These include:
- There is now an infinite amount of rooms.
- There are no Grand Encounters.
- No currency spawns.
- Sebastian's Shop now spawns at room 500,000.
- A tracker that displays your highest room for both Normal Mode and Hoppy Mode when you open the first door.
Hoppy Mode
Hoppy Mode (named after Hoppy Hopscotch from Poppy Playtime Chapter 3) is Pressure Lite's version of Evil Mode. Added a few hours after Pressure Lite released, players could access it by clicking a green button surrounded by various Hoppy Hopscotch images next to the first door. It received multiple updates throughout the game's lifespan that gradually added more and more features. The final version included:
- The Educator.
- Classrooms did not spawn alongside him.
- Flickering lights, similar to Evil Mode.
- Pandemonium has a much longer and harder minigame that includes red circles that drain the bar even faster.
- Puddles of Void-Mass now glow green.
