Concept
Closer is a first person puzzle and exploration game based on Unreal Engine 4. Using reality augmenting headset technology you can explore recorded versions of your environment for clues and insight. Challenges based on language barriers (with built in translation engine) and logic problems.

Story
David Somerset, a family friend, has now been missing long enough to be declared dead and his lawyer has just notified you that you have inherited his estate in France. David, former co-founder of Beyond Sight, was an engineer that pioneered InfinityWear. InfinityWear is a technology that can fully scan and capture an environment that can then be fully experienced by using reality augmenting glasses.

Though you two were close when you were a child, it has been over 20 years since you've seen him. Not wanting to move and needing the money, arrangements are made with a realtor to sell the place. But this process is interrupted when the house security system locks down the entire estate. You have to make a trip to the estate in order to disable the system. With a working prototype of InfinityWear, you unlock the house piece by piece and discover David's past while discovering the man he really was, the life he lived, and even insight into what happened to him.

This demo, while it will keep the theme of the full game and holds many of the mechanics that will be seen in the full game, is not 100% accurate to what will be seen in the full game. The rooms and hallway will not be seen and the topics in the story will be presented in a different order.
Although I had tried to put up the demo before the file seemed to have gotten lost in the servers or something, so if you had tried before with no luck please feel free to try again. It should be working fine. Thanks for your patience!
