Praise for INSERT COIN:
"Sometimes the right subject finds the right person behind the camera...and that's what makes Insert Coin much more than your average video game behind-the-scenes documentary."-Best 15 Films for 2020 Ars Technica
"With entertaining and fascinating nuggets throughout, ‘Insert Coin’ is a lot of fun. It’s a wonderful companion piece for a very significant era in gaming history." James Swirsky Co-Director of Indie Game: The Movie
"Superbly told. A love letter to the wild west era of game-making, where—with just a keyboard and joystick—the outlaws broke all the rules and in the process made some of the greatest games in the 80s and 90s.” Blake Harris Author of Console Wars, The History Of The Future
