the optimist says it’s half human the pessimist says it’s half monsterand the project manager says, “when can we ship it?” PROXIMATE is a dread-driven narrative game where you investigate a deep sea laboratory and piece together the events that lead to the research team’s demise. You'll be required to wear an image recognition visor that only tells you the bare minimum information you need to succeed — and sometimes less. Use text information, proximity data and audio clues to form a mental map of your surroundings and pray that your technology won't fail you when you need it most. FEATURESThere is no monster. Assignment timeboxed to 90 minutes. If you’re here longer than that, we might have to dock your pay. Your visor says that the red stain on the wall is ketchup. It was coded by some very smart people, so you should definitely trust it. Collect chat logs from the research team, but don't read into them too much. We're not paying you to figure out some kind of sinister mystery here. I mean, we haven’t seen the monster. So it’s probably not there. Receive helpful calls from your manager, voiced by Luke Austin, who's here to make your job easier.
