    If you've always wondered about what happens after death, Before Your Eyes may be of interest to you. In this narrative adventure game, you play as a spirit who begins his journey to the afterlife. You have just died and you find yourself on board a ship leading you to the other world. But before you arrive at your destiny you must relive key moments of your own life so that the ferryman can read them before guiding you. In order to find eternal rest, you will have to be completely honest with him, because if he thinks you are hiding things from him, he will push you into a corner, and you will not necessarily relive only pleasant moments. 

    In terms of gameplay, Before Your Eyes uses a unique technology that allows you to play with your eyes. To play the game you need a webcam, as you control the game by blinking your eyes.

    FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

    How does the game detect my blinks, and what level of precision is required for the eye tracking?
    The game uses your computer's webcam to track your eye movements and blinks. The level of precision is designed to be forgiving; subtle movements and natural blinking are generally sufficient to progress.
    If I wear glasses or contact lenses, will the game's eye-tracking still function correctly?
    The game is designed to work with glasses and contact lenses, however, the lighting condition is important. Ensure there is enough light in the room to allow the webcam to clearly detect your eyes. Adjust the webcam position if necessary.
    What happens if I blink during a critical moment in the narrative?
    Blinking will advance the narrative, revealing the next scene. The game is designed so that every blink progresses the story, so there are no ‘game over’ scenarios due to blinking.
    Can I control the speed at which I progress through the story by blinking?
    While you control the progression through blinking, the story unfolds at a pre-determined pace within each scene. You can't slow down or speed up the overall sequence of events but you can control what you see at any given time.
    Does the game require constant eye contact with the screen, or can I look away briefly?
    You need to keep your eyes generally focused on the screen, but brief glances away are usually acceptable. The game prioritizes your blinks, not sustained eye contact, so it is designed to be a natural experience.
    Are there any visual or auditory cues to indicate when a blink will trigger a change?
    The game subtly incorporates visual and auditory cues to prepare you for a transition. Pay attention to the scene's details, as they often hint at what will be revealed after a blink.
    How does the game handle situations where my eyes are closed for an extended period, such as a long blink or rubbing my eyes?
    The game interprets extended periods of eye closure as the intended action to progress. The story will advance through the scene in similar fashion.
    Does the game save my progress automatically, or do I need to perform a specific action to save?
    The game automatically saves your progress at key moments. You don't need to manually save your progress.
    If I replay the game, will the experience change based on my past blinks or actions?
    The core narrative remains consistent across playthroughs. However, the emotional impact and the nuances of the experience can change based on the player's focus and the emotional context during each playthrough.
    How does the game’s mechanics affect the overall emotional impact of the story?
    The unique blink-based gameplay directly connects you to the narrative, making you an active participant in the story. This enhances the emotional impact by blurring the lines between the player and the protagonist's experiences.
