Beyond The Frame

Beyond The Frame is a first-person linear narrative experience about exploring dreams shaped by childhood anxiety. Journey through eerie, liminal spaces where the familiar becomes distorted by dream logic, and uncover your story through the metaphors within them.

A Remote Australian Development Team

BG is a fully remote, 100% Australian studio. Working remotely lets our team work at their own pace, balancing work with life. Instead of spending money on office space and commutes, we’d rather put it into our games, and the people making them. Keeping our team Australian matters just as much. We’re investing into the Australian games industry, backing local talent and underrepresented creatives at home.
