What frightens Days before graduation, students investigate an abandoned film studio under their school; everything goes black, your friends vanish, stammering creatures wander halls whose walls pulse like flesh, the air chokes you, and a voice tells you to end the cycle.

Studio System : Guardian Angel is a surreal fixed-camera horror game with light survival elements. A few days before the end of high school, three students find an abandoned film studio under their school; when you come to, your friends are gone and creatures wander the halls. Use the fixed camera as your weapon and end the cycle.

About Studio System : Guardian Angel

Studio System : Guardian Angel is a horror game by the small studio alreti circle, released on Steam in February 2025. Its store page opens with a line that sets the tone: welcome to the bloodletting.

Days before the end of high school, one of your friends decides to bring to light an abandoned film studio hidden underneath the school. Inside the dusty sepulchre everything goes black. When you come to, the students have vanished and all of your friends are gone. Stammering creatures wander the halls, the air is disgusting to breathe, and the walls are moving, pulsating. A voice you remember from unconsciousness is clear: end the cycle.

It is fixed-camera horror with light survival elements, and the fixed camera itself is your weapon: you use it to defeat enemies and to solve puzzles. You explore dingy, surreal environments, from a corridor flooded in red light to a pale blue school rooftop and platforms floating in a white void, and you can form a pact with a god to keep yourself safe. The characters are drawn in a scratchy anime style over low-poly 3D rooms, and the pause screen shows a heal, a few rounds of ammunition and Becky's bat.

It suits players who like strange, personal survival horror in the line of Heartworm or Signalis, where a fixed camera and a few supplies are all you have.
