Funstock.co.uk, Doncaster (9th February, 2014) - "From Bedrooms To Billions" - a movie documenting the history of the UK games industry is set for physical release exclusively at Europe's Number One Retro Gaming Destination, Funstock.co.uk on Friday 20th March 2015.
After being successfully funded via Kickstarter the creators went on to develop a fascinating 150 minute in-depth journey told through interviews and archive footage featuring industry legends including Peter Molyneux, Ian Livingstone, David Perry, David Braben, Ben Daglish, Oliver Frey, Miles Jacobson, Jeff Minter and many more.
The movie tells the story of how the creativity and vision of a relatively small number of individuals allowed the UK to play a key, pioneering role in shaping the billion dollar video games industry.
