Origin

In the Roblox^[1] game Pressure, a survival horror game by Urbanshade: Hadal Division in which players must travel through a series of doors in a testing facility known as the Hadal Blacksite and survive the monsters behind each door, there is a creature called Pandemonium that resembles a giant anglerfish with numerous eyes.^[2] When encountered, players must hide in a locker to escape Pandemonium, which forces you to play a minigame during which you must keep an erratically moving dot inside of a circle for a period of time.
