Unfortunately I don't have a tiny - so I can only go by the reference measurements - for reference here's the fly2040-min measurements next to the tiny's... (mine's smaller )
Also - I've just installed one (fly2040-min) and I can happily confirm it works perfectly.
The nice thing is that it also already has the 3 x 47 Ohm resistors, the boot button (which is also so small it doesn't have to be removed) and an optional mosfet pulldown resistor (10K). Just solder the jumper to use the pulldown.

I'm going to release (in the same git) a programmer board. But the intention is to use a pogo-pins clip (Search ali for something like: "1.27mm 6P PCB Clip Clamp Fixture Probe Tool Programming Download Burning PCB Debugging Inspection Tool")
For testing I just cut a USB cable and put a 3V3 regulator on a prototyping board, ran D+ & D- through, GND & 3V3 to my clip.

Programmer board coming.
It's open source - https://github.com/floxcap/fly2040/tree/main/pcb/fly2040_min
But if there's enough interest I'll look at doing a bulk order at JLCPCB which will make pricing quite reasonable - and then I'd be happy to sell.
The pull down is connected to the solder jumper (normally disabled by default) and the other side of the jumper is connected to the CPU pad.

If you're doing quite a few of these - you only need 1 programmer set-up.
Of course also - once installed - the normal upgrade bin would be used.

Not really... There's a potential for the mosfet(s) to carry a charge when the fly is in a sleep state or powering up. The (weak) pull-down is an option to ensure the mosfet(s) gate isn't floating at those times. The alternative is to have it at the mosfet side.
-Will you be selling these?
-If yes, how much will a board and flex cable order from you approximately cost?
-Does the latest fly2040_min board work on the Lite?

If there's enough interest - then I'd consider it.
Tested on the lite and on V2 and working perfectly.
Currently testing if it works with the mosfet(s) on the same board which will simplify the install and reduce the cost.
I'd be looking at selling for around $6 USD (but would probably set a minimum order amount because shipping is a hassle and I'm not doing it for profit).

Wonderful! I already found the flex cables in a shop in my country, so I won't have to import those as well. I will go order 5 of the min board then to install. Oh and one more thang, is the v2 the patched unit?(Detective Columbo Stinger)
Rapid Fire Edits: If I get the min boards for the lite, what HW_Fly CPU flex cable should I get as well? And how should I configure my order on JLC's site? Should I even get a flex cable?
Can you provide a photo with the best place to put the board on in the Lite and the solder spots?

It's an option if not using the CPU flex (v2 etc) cable... i.e. bare mosfet(s) install. The flex cable already has resistors.
I haven't used that option (jumper) yet as I'm waiting on mosfets to test bare mosfet install.
No I have, I am just asking for confirmation. And I am not aware of any documentation specific to the fly2040
Yes I am aware of the AIO thread and the pfg v6.2. I just want to make sure that I have all my tools at hand

Only thing drive me crazy is all these new horror games nowadays is its so dark, all time. I can't even play them. I understand they trying to create spooky but be creative a little, not just darkness with pop out scare scenes.
