Digital Eclipse Entertainment Partners’ Post

We are very excited to announce the newest interactive documentary in our Gold Master Series today! Llamasoft: The Jeff Minter Story explains how a kid with a Commodore VIC-20 and dreams of radioactive sheep could become one of Britain's best-known game makers includes. The project encompasses 42 classic games from 8 different platforms, from Jeff Minter's earliest work on the Sinclair ZX81 and Commodore VIC-20, to later work on the Spectrum, Commodore 64 and Atari 800, and deep into the 16-bit era with the Atari ST and Atari Jaguar. Additionally, our studio head Mike Mika has contributed a modern interpretation of Gridrunner that will be exclusive to this project. Llamasoft: The Jeff Minter Story will be available for all major platforms in 2024; you can wishlist on Steam today: https://lnkd.in/gA6NWgUb In the meantime, we want to thank Double Fine Productions & iam8bit for giving us the opportunity to debut this during this year's Day of the Devs digital showcase. Here's an excerpt from today's event in which Mike and our editorial director Chris Kohler offer a preview of the project. #retrogaming #videogames #gamepreservation #UK #jeffminter #minteriscoming #gridrunner #tempest2000 #llamasoft #yak #digitaleclipse #interactive #documentary #c64 #vic20 #atariST #atarijaguar #indiegame #gamehistory

Congrats team, the magic just keeps happening over there. Fun to see this amazing body of work unfurling out to the world.

Awesome Chris Kohler, thanks! I was watching Netflix High Score a few days and thinking how much better it will have been with you narrating & interviewing. Still some cool stories... :)
