I solved the “Allergies ” #TiledWords puzzle created by David! 🕒 4 minutes, 1 second 💡 0/3 reveals used tiledwords.com/player-puzzl... This was a fun one!

It was a ton of fun chatting with Craig at @playlin.io about #TiledWords If you like #DailyGames check out playlin.io!

It was really fun chatting with Craig at @playlin.io about #TiledWords We got into the game's origins, how my wife and I make the puzzles together, some of my favorite little details and more. You can read the whole conversation here: playlin.io/features/paul-hebert/ #GameDev #IndieDev #Puzzle

Today I'm launching player-submitted puzzles for #TiledWords! There are 10 brand-new puzzles created by players like you that you can play right now: https:// tiledwords.com/puzzles/page/1 Solve new puzzles about bees, chess, animation, fantasy creatures and more! #GameDev #IndieDev #Puzzle

My game Tiled Words was featured in an article on Forbes! www.forbes.com/sites/barryc... #TiledWords #IndieDev #GameDev #Wordle

Why did no one tell me math can be fun #gamedev #indiedev #godot

We released the 200th #TiledWords puzzle today! I can't believe we're at 200 already! It seems like we were releasing out 100th puzzle yesterday. Today's theme is "bowl" if you want to check it out: tiledwords.com/puzzles/daily #GameDev #IndieDev #Puzzle #Wordle

I just released a new #TiledWords feature which should make it easier to play through the backlog! You can now hide already-completed puzzles on the Past Puzzles page so you can find your next puzzle more quickly! #GameDev #IndieDev

My friend built a super satisfying word game! Play for free: tiledwords.com

Thank you to everyone who gave feedback on #TiledWords! The number 1 request was an easier way to search the backlog for puzzles you haven't completed yet. This isn't out yet but is coming soon. Which option do you prefer? The text links/buttons? Or the toggle switch? #GameDev #Design #puzzle

#TiledWords turned 6 months old last week! Thank you to everyone who plays and shares the game. I wrote a little update about the first 6 months and what's coming next: paulmakeswebsites.com/writing/six-... #GameDev #IndieDev #Puzzle

I would rather have time to do things slowly than tools to do things quickly (this does not apply to cleaning the house)

Aging was supposed to happen in base 12, not base 10. You're actually meant to be a kid until 12, a teenager until 24, a 20-something until you're 36, and in your thirties until you're 48. Your 40s should last until you're 60. That's why every decade milestone (30, 40, etc.) feels premature.

I'm working on adding profile pages to #TiledWords. Is there a stat you would want to see on your profile? #GameDev #IndieDev #Puzzles

It was a fun surprise to hear Tiled Words mentioned in episode 693 of @shoptalkshow.com ! If you like puzzles or word games give it a try! tiledwords.com

A post on social media promoting a post I wrote. ericwbailey.website/published/a-...

I somehow lived in Florida for half my life before discovering Haitian pikliz. Holy crap is it delicious.

This wiggly paint app is so fun. Just delightful. beyondloom.com/tools/wiggly...

Hey #TiledWords players! I'm adding support for player logins and it's almost ready. I need beta testers to help me test it out! If you're interested, please DM me your email! I'll be reaching out sometime in the next week with more details!

There was an issue with today's #TiledWords where you could get stuck with two big tiles and the shuffle button wouldn't swap them. I just released a fix. If you ran into this please try refreshing and shuffling again! Thanks

It is much easier to make something complicated than to make it simple.

The Jetsons lied to us

Well this is definitely the biggest PR I've ever made. (Don't worry this is on a side project. I wouldn't do this to a coworker.) This is almost all converting ~160 TS files to JSON (These store Tiled Words puzzles) #WebDev #GameDev

Love this rebound from @matthiasott.com on my post from yesterday. He captures a nuance I was living in but couldn’t quite express. There is a friction when traversing disciplines, but that’s good friction. The ”iron sharpens iron” kind. We should seek that out more and put value on it.

I made a small change to the #TiledWords victory screen today. Now you'll see how many puzzles you've completed if the number is higher than your streak #GameDev

This article by @whitep4nth3r.com articulates my thoughts better than I could: whitep4nth3r.com/blog/i-am-in... I love designing and building websites but am starting to hate a lot of things about the industry. If you need some good folk music to listen to I’ve been enjoying Jesse Welles a lot

This is one of my favorite Tiled Words themes in a while. Can you find all of the invertebrates in the puzzle? tiledwords.com/puzzles/2026... #TiledWords #Puzzles #WordGames #Wordle

Introducing the easiest way to force your friends to play the exact same daily games as you! Curate your list on Playlin, hit share, and send. It's completely account-free for everyone involved. Tagging @merriam-webster.com so they can review the verb updates on their end. 📖

Wonderful writeup about the incredible overcomplexity of modern web UI frameworks by @haul-pebert.bsky.social. Why use a native #HTML element if you could jump several hoops using multiple layers of dependencies and a lot of #JavaScript instead? paulmakeswebsites.com/writing/shad... #WebDev

What a lineup! Congrats to all the winners. I was honored to win Players Choice with my game Tiled Words! Thanks so much to everyone who played or voted!

If you haven't played the 2025 Players' Choice winner yet, what are you waiting for? Tiled Words is a community favorite and an absolute blast to play. Well deserved! 🌟

#TiledWords won the Players' Choice Award at the 2025 @playlin.bsky.social Daily Game Awards!! It was also runner up for Best Word Game and a finalist for Best Classic Game Reimagined and Best Visual Design! #GameDev #Puzzles #DailyGames

It's been fun watching @timotab.bsky.social playing #TiledWords! He's done the last couple of puzzles and posted them on YouTube: www.youtube.com/watch?v=v4tw...

It was really fun stumbling upon this video of Simon at Cracking the Cryptic playing #TiledWords! It's kind of weird making a daily game. I spend a lot of time on it but rarely get to watch people play. It was really fun watching him solve this puzzle! youtu.be/zA4PshGRoVk?... #GameDev #Puzzles

Slow is smooth and smooth is fast

the Black Panthers were right

I just released a small performance optimization to #TiledWords! This should help the game run smoother and crash less often. Please let me know if you notice any game play issues! #GameDev

Anyone else playing Tiled Words? Just saw it mentioned yesterday by @gri.gs and I’m really enjoying it! tiledwords.com

I just made a small update to #TiledWords that makes it work a little better if you install it as a "home screen app" or PWA: - It now launches in "standalone" mode so it feels more like a native app - The game has a shiny new icon for your home screen! #GameDev #WebDev

I just released an update to #TiledWords that changes how progress and streaks are tracked. Please let me know if you run into any issues! If your streak gets messed up or anything let me know and I can help you fix it. Thank you!

Writing code was never the bottleneck, thinking was. If you let a tool remove the friction of typing, you skip the friction of understanding the problem.

I accidentally nerd-sniped myself and built a quick CodePen to quickly preview how your logo will look in different contexts: codepen.io/phebert/pen/...

I just pushed a small change to #TiledWords If you keep the "Daily" page open and use the same tab multiple days in a row it should now auto-refresh to load the new day's puzzle. Please let me know if you notice any issues or anything weird that may be related to this. Thanks!

Today I released the 100th #TiledWords puzzle! My wife and I make each puzzle together creating themes and clues for the puzzle. Each puzzle takes 5-10 minutes on average so that’s like 10 hours or puzzles! tiledwords.com #WordGames #Puzzles #GameDev

I'm exploring a small change to #TiledWords. I've gotten feedback that it's annoying to accidentally rotate a word you've already completed. I'm considering "locking" the rotation of completed words/tiles so they can't be spun. What do y'all think? Would you like this change? #GameDev #Puzzles

I'm officially a curmudgeon. Here's a rant about the Shadcn component library and how over-complicated its radio buttons are: paulmakeswebsites.com/writing/shad... (Inspired by this week's work frustrations lol) #WebDev #CSS #HTML #JavaScript

#TiledWords was nominated for the Playlin award for best daily short form web game! If you like the game it would mean a lot to me if you took a second to vote for it! playlin.io/awards/vote/
