Independent Film HEART OF NEON launches crowdfunding campaign
eTradeWire News/10802952
BROOKLYN, N.Y. - eTradeWire -- Sheep In Space, LLC, the team that brought you the documentary featurettes showcased in the groundbreaking Digital Eclipse release, LLAMASOFT: THE JEFF MINTER STORY, is thrilled to announce the launch of the Kickstarter campaign to release HEART OF NEON, the continuing story of video game legend Jeff Minter's unique, unprecedented 40-year career.
Jeff has been a video game developer since the beginning of the 1980s, and has outlasted almost every other solo game developer who started at the same time, developing games for nearly every major platform along the way. Through the story of Jeff's exceptional career is the unique opportunity to witness the video game industry evolving, as seen from the perspective of an outsider. Jeff Minter is a game designer who never gave up, and HEART OF NEON is an extraordinary story that no fan of the history of video games can afford to miss!
Key Features:
The film's director, Paul Docherty, has a background in video games himself: "In the late 1980s I was a video games graphics artist. At the time it was a huge part of my life. The humble business of video games has changed wildly since then... In Jeff Minter's experience I see the same modest 1980s game developer attitude. He truly is an independent. While he has partnered with many distribution companies over the years, Jeff makes the games he wants to make. It's the name of his company that goes over the title. HEART OF NEON is a film about how rare and special that is."
