Word Nerd v1.1.0 Released
I don’t know about you, but I love the game, Wordle, hosted by the NY Times. Maybe “obsessed” is a better word. It’s so dang addicting. And it’s equally as frustrating since you can only play once a day. So, I decided to make a clone of it, with a few new features.

Upcoming Changes for GameDevUtils.com, 2023/Q1
I’ve been working on my 2016 sprite packing tool (again) recently. The current version is web-only, static HTML so that your assets stay on your machine.

I Finally Got My Domain!
I’ve been waiting for 20 years to land a top-level domain for “joehall”. For all this time, joehall.com has been a construction company that specializes in gas stations, joehall.org has been a canadian band, and joehall.net has been an insurance agent. To make it all a bit stranger, I’ve lived within 15 miles of two of those domain holders.
