CONTENT FUND
ForthStar
Unannounced Project
We are an Altrincham based mobile games studio founded in 2023 by the team behind Golf Clash. Our mission is to make great games that millions of people love to play every day, for years.
We have a growing team of just under 30 staff who share both the craft and the ownership of the game. We keep hierarchy flat, invest heavily in our people, and believe that a motivated, empowered team simply makes better games.
With support from the UK Games Fund, ForthStar is developing a new competitive real time PvP skill based action mobile game for iOS and Android. The game is built around fast, accessible multiplayer gameplay with deep strategic depth — the kind of experience that rewards both casual sessions and long-term commitment. Fast to pick up and rewarding to master, the project is currently in active development with further details to be announced ahead of launch.
What they say
The UK Games Fund Content Fund is exactly the kind of support the industry needs right now. The landscape for securing external investment has changed significantly in recent years, and for studios like ours programmes like this make a real difference. Beyond the direct support, it's a signal of confidence in British game development, and that matters. The games industry is one of the UK's genuine success stories, and initiatives that help studios grow, hire, and retain talent here are something we'd encourage any eligible studio to explore.
