A downloadable game for Windows

The academy was once a home for the students who have bright futures ahead. Now, it has become a shadow of its former self. People have been going missing every year in this town, and now it is about to claim its next victims. Can you survive together in these school grounds, or will you become another tally to the student body count? The headmaster awaits your performance...

Silver Frame is a point-and-click mascot survival horror with puzzle elements. You are an operator who controls a drone to survey the interior of this abandoned academy. Along the way, you will meet a girl who needs your help to escape. Survive together as you uncover the mystery of the school, while trying to find a way out from this nightmare.


The game requires mouse and keyboard to play.

The game was made for the Toxic Terror GameJam as a solo submission, with the theme of "Sit and Survive"

Normally, it is usually the main character who gets stuck while trying to defend themselves against the elements. However, in this demo, that role landed on another character and you have to protect them from danger instead. You control an indestructible drone where enemies have little to no effect on you. Although, they're more interested with your partner instead.  I'm still on the fence on whether the premise of this is either a haunted-place setting or a death-game scenario. 

Once the event is finished, I'm planning to expand more of the game with the first chapter, along with some improvements and quality-of-life changes, and some gameplay additions.

Made a video

Here's my feedback from playing the game

after playing this i gotta say that i heavily fw the concept. this has a lot of potential
one complain though is that items can duplicate after picking them up, which includes the ones required for puzzles

Ah, glad you liked the demo so far!

Though, I'm curious on the item duplication glitch. How did it occured?

after picking up an item and moving to another area, when i returned to the previous area the item reappeared which include the ones required for puzzles

I think I found the problem. I'll just wait for the gamejam to finish so I can upload the fixed version
