Stu & Leon Catch discuss Heart of Neon in this latest bonus episode. They sit down with artist and filmmaker Paul Docherty for a deep-dive conversation covering everything from the making of Heart of Neon to the wild, creative life of legendary game developer Jeff Minter.

Jeff Minter is a British video game developer known for his psychedelic visual style, love of animals (especially llamas), and fast-paced arcade-style games. He founded the company Llamasoft in 1982 and has been active in the industry for over four decades. From the Commodore VIC 20, Atari all the way to PlayStation and Xbox!

We talk about the art and challenges of indie filmmaking, the legacy of retro gaming, the future of gaming, and what makes Jeff Minter such a unique force in gaming history. Paul shares behind-the-scenes stories, personal insights into the documentary process, and his passion for capturing the energy and eccentricity of the 8-bit and 16-bit eras 🕹️.
