Met RJ Mical at Kickstart - UK Amiga Expo, which was a really surreal moment, and got my Amiga reference manuals signed. Never did I ever expect to get to speak to one of the original Amiga team. Without them my life would have been very different indeed! No Amiga, no Worms.
Out now! Download for free at worm.net Thanks to @stinkyox.bsky.social for letting us do a Llamasoft level. It’s been an honour, and my favourite level in the game!

Really lovely surprise arrived today from Team17! Thank you for believing in me and my game, and for all the support you have shown over the years
32 years ago today Commodore went bankrupt. It broke my heart at the time, without the Amiga I would never have achieved my dream. It opened doors in the industry for so many people. Here’s to all the crazy, passionate people that gave us the most beloved computer ever made 🍻
It’s a lovely Bank Holiday Monday in the UK 🌞 Milo is having a busy day bird watching.
Worms x Eric W. Schwartz Dual-layer custom level by @ericwschwartz.bsky.social, part of the free Worms DC Expansion Pack. Includes Llamasoft, Turrican and many other levels, as well as new landscapes and sample-sets. A 1.1 update to the game itself is also in the works. Details soon.
This is simply brilliant. My favourite film in years. Go in blind and enjoy.
The first review of Worms, in CU Amiga. They were big fans of the game. When we first showed them it, they kept the power on in their offices over the weekend so they could continue playing on the Monday after we had taken the disks away 💾
Say hello to Milo. Found the Christmas tree on the floor 3 times already.
For those in Wakefield, Worms is now exhibited in Wakefield Museum. It was an honour to see the game here, and I hope it can inspire the next generation of game makers out there.
Had a great time at Team17 yesterday for the Worms 30th anniversary party. Everyone got a Concrete Donkey plush, which is one of the best things I’ve ever seen! Thanks to Ash and everyone else involved for organising it. Here’s to 30 years more! 🪱
Today’s reading, another awesome issue of @retrogamermag.bsky.social! Proud to see Worms listed as one of the 10 Amiga Killer Apps.
Worms x Llamasoft Thanks to Jeff Minter. Custom level by P-A Gustafsson. Regarding the 1.5 update sadly my mum passed away in January, and also going back to 30 year old code has proved trickier than I thought. But I’m making steady progress again, and will update you all soon.
Love this! A special issue of Amiga Addict magazine for Worms’ 30th anniversary year. www.addict.media/amiga-addict... Amiga Addict has been at the forefront of keeping the Amiga alive, and it was a pleasure doing the interview for this issue. 🪱
🤯 Amazing gift from one of the original playtesters! A customised Amiga 1200 case. I am seriously blown away.
