GON's Nerdy GUI - is the software available somewhere?

I made a poor decision in the past and bought a PCB from GON's Keyboardworks. I finally got around to actually assemble a keyboard using the PCB, and now I notice that GON is out of business, and his software is nowhere to be found. Unfortunately, the software downloads haven't been captured by Wayback, at least on the dozen or so captures I scoured through.

Would anyone happen to if the software is still available somewhere? Does anyone know if the board accepts EasyAVRUSB firmware?

EDIT: I now understand this topic would have better suited the Workshop section. 🤦🤦🤦 Feel free to move the topic if need be.

I managed to find version 1.4.

1.6 seems to be permanently gone.

ZOINKS! Does the name strike fear into your heart?

The experience of dealing with GON was definitely the worst I've ever had in the keyboard community. And honestly, it's my only negative experience within the community.

I just uploaded this to archive.org. Funny, I came across this thread trying to find where I downloaded some nerdy files from last year as I may be selling my unassembled NerD 60. I vaguely recall grabbing them from a foreign (to me) website, probably a Chinese forum.

I have not tested the 2.2 firmware files. Use at your own risk. Maybe I should just take that down...

I did run v1.6 nerdy gui with the NerD board hooked up and it was detected, but that's as far as I went with this.

EDIT: My bad, I got the files from a Korean keyboard site.

Nerdy GUI 1.6:

Firmware:

Google translate works well enough.
