About Beyond The Frame
Beyond The Frame is a first-person horror game set in the dreams of an 11-year-old child. Each dream is quietly unsettling and is trying to tell you something, and the further you go, the more the child's anxieties creep in.
It's a slow, quiet kind of horror. Objects move when you aren't looking and you're never sure you're alone. Your main tool is a camera that sees things you can't: you photograph your surroundings to find clues, reveal hidden paths and solve puzzles. The story is told through symbols in each dream, so careful looking pays off.
Backyard Games is making it for Windows. It's listed as free to play on Steam, and there's a demo now.
