We are Red Rat Games, a team of Computer Games Technology graduates from the University of Portsmouth, each with first-class honours and over four years of experience developing in Unreal Engine.
Our skills span programming, design, 3D modelling, storytelling, and production, giving us a strong foundation to take our debut game to market. Having collaborated closely throughout university and beyond, we share a passion for crafting impactful, focused gaming experiences. We work well together due to our mutual respect, complementary strengths, and shared creative vision.
Tranzfuser presents an incredible opportunity for Red Rat Games to grow into a successful studio. It will allow us to dedicate time to developing our debut title, deepen our expertise in Unreal Engine, and gain essential knowledge in business development and commercialisation. The funding and mentorship provided through Tranzfuser will be instrumental in taking our project to market and establishing a sustainable video games company.
About the project
F.I.L.T.E.R. — Mont Blanc is a vulnerability survival horror game where you explore the tunnels beneath Mont Blanc, stalked by an eldritch spider. Avoid it. Run from it. Hide from it. While a growth spreads, hallucinations set in, and something begins to whisper in your mind. Launching first on PC (Q4 2026) with console release post-launch, it’s a singleplayer, first-person, stealth-action horror set across five unique areas.
You play as a newly recruited search and rescue operative investigating a rise in missing hikers and seismic activity. After being separated from your partner, you’re left alone in the dark. Something is hunting you — massive, intelligent, and always nearby. But that’s not all. The tunnels pulse with an unnatural growth, seeping gas that clouds your mind and blurs reality. A whisper follows you through the dark. Inhuman… but persuasive. Lovecraftian in theme, Mont Blanc focuses on stealth, dread, and vulnerability.

We applied to Tranzfuser because it offers a rare opportunity to take our studio to the next level. This funding would allow us to maintain and expand our development infrastructure, improve the quality of our game, and broaden our reach. It would empower us to take key steps forward, giving us the confidence and momentum to keep building something we’re truly excited about. Beyond the practical benefits, Tranzfuser would also serve as vital validation—proof that others believe in what we're creating. That kind of recognition is a huge morale boost for a small team investing everything into a project we truly care about. It also helps build credibility around our team and game, making it easier to approach publishers, investors, and future collaborators. Tranzfuser represents both a launchpad and a vote of confidence, and we’re excited for the opportunity to prove ourselves.
