Amiga Addict Issue 1 cover
Grind is made on the Dread engine. Originally it was just Dread but when they started making it into a "real game" they rebranded it. Things move so fast!
We were honoured to meet @johnromero.bsky.social yesterday and hear his memories about the #Amiga and its relationship with #Doom! He even mentioned he'd played Gloom in the past, and we showed him Grind! What a lovely chap.

WH Smith memories:

Teenage years: Looking at all the Amiga mags. Usually buying an Amiga Shopper, Amiga Format or CU Amiga. Sometimes even an AUI.

In my forties: Being absolutely delighted to see Amiga Addict magazine in a physical shop and buying it with glee.

@amigaaddict.bsky.social
Well, if we're going to share our WH Smith memories

1) Aged 9, standing and looking in awe at a ZX81 on display, switched on and plugged into a TV. Mind blown

2) Aged 49, wondering why it was so dark in there – lights barely on, also the fridges barely cold – I guess it was to keep the bills down
Thanks, we were happy @paulee-bow.bsky.social wrote this for us to show a different perspective on the Amiga platform!
Excellent 3 page feature about the Amiga and #autism in the latest @amigaaddict.bsky.social magazine. 😊
