Ryzo Studios is building a multi-platform universe that gives boys permission to feel. Our interconnected projects—the animated short Release The Beast, the Roblox game Rage Fighters, the planned YouTube series Super Mad, and the feature film Decimator—follow teenage gamer Aaron as his suppressed emotions literally come to life as video game characters that help him navigate rage, isolation, and the pull of online extremism.

Each project expands the world and deepens engagement with healthy masculinity: the short introduces Aaron’s struggle and validates boys’ inner turmoil, the game lets players practice emotional regulation techniques as part of its gameplay, and the feature explores how community and connection can save a boy teetering on the edge of extremism.
