Embark on an emotional first-person narrative adventure where you control the story—and affect its outcomes—with your real-life blinks. With this innovative technique you will fully immerse yourself in a world of memories, both joyous and heartbreaking, as your whole life flashes before your eyes.

## About This Game
Before Your Eyes is a first person narrative adventure which tells the story
of a soul ‘s journey into the afterlife using a new and innovative form of
interaction–your real-life blinks.

The story begins after your death, aboard the ship of a mythical Ferryman
tasked with shepherding souls to the afterlife. In order to help you pass on,
he must first learn the story of your life. And so, he sends you back to
relive your most important moments.

The game uses your webcam to immerse you in this story in a way you’ve never
experienced before. You will learn to control the flow of the narrative with
your actual eyes-blinking through precious memories of family, first love, and
the rise of an artistic career. But soon the Ferryman will suspect you aren’t
showing him everything he needs to see. So he will force you deeper into the
dark recesses of your most repressed memories, ultimately revealing a
heartbreaking truth.

By combining its innovative blink interaction mechanic with a charming world
and a fully voice-acted story, Before Your Eyes is a deeply emotional and
relatable journey –one about the impossible expectations we place on
ourselves and the regrets we carry with us.

An earlier version of the game, titled Close Your , received the Game
Developers Choice award at Indiecade and the Student Award at the Independent
Game Awards (IGF), before receiving funding through a successful Kickstarter
campaign.
