About This Game

An emotional family drama seen through the eyes of a woman with Alzheimer's disease. Annie and her family cope with reversed caretaking roles when she moves from her long-time home. As she unpacks her life, memories of her deceased brother and homes from her past bleed into the present.

STORY

You are Annie, an elderly woman whose memory is starting to betray her. As your children clash over how to care for you, old memories of your long-dead brother start to emerge.

As Long As You're Here is a subtle reflection of what life with dementia might look like, and a story about regret, being in transit, and the complex relationships between siblings.

SHORT & PERSONAL

As Long As You're Here is a short and personal experience made with care by a small team of developers.

The aim is to create a mature and nuanced experience that shows the difficult repercussions of losing not only your memory, but also your agency and sense of time and place.

What disappears when we forget?

... and what resurfaces?

FEATURES

  • Short & Subtle: A short and subtle experience designed to be enjoyed in one sitting.

  • Personal: Inspired by real stories and includes real-life photos of the developers' own family members - some of whom suffered from Alzheimer's disease.

  • Story Rich: Explore Annie's life through dialogue, mementos, and letters from the past. Meet family members and unpack the tensions and dynamics between them.

  • Subversive Vignettes: The player's own memory comes into play. As the world around Annie shifts and changes, players share in her failing faculties.

  • Immersive Audio & Original Music

ABOUT AUTOSCOPIA INTERACTIVE

Autoscopia Interactive is a small and diverse game studio based in Copenhagen, Denmark, with developers from Denmark, The Netherlands, and the U.S.

Our studio name comes from the word "autoscopy" — an experience of "watching yourself" from a distant point of view. We make introspective games that put players in underrepresented roles, and hope to give you a glimpse of yourself from another perspective.
