Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 29/09/2026As a resident of Washington state, and with friends who went to WSU, I have had that cheese and enjoyed it. 011
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 29/09/2026At my son’s Scouts Court of Honor last night, all of the kids and adults who attended summer camp were ”inducted” into an honorary patrol, The Jimothies. Our shoulder insignia is a certified trash panda. 000
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Ready for the Oogie Boogie Bash at Disneyland! 120
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 19/09/2026After almost a year away from it, I’ve been restoring and rebuilding Disco Candybar prototypes this week in preparation for shipping them out again. Took a bunch of photos to document the process this time. discocandybar.com/2026/09/18/p... 010
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Seeing your old, discarded game ideas from 12-odd years ago dredged up and published with a slightly different name but identical execution feels… well… a little weird. 000
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 15/09/2026Been a bit since I’ve updated the blog. Fixing that with some news about all the stuff that’s happened in that gap. Some lows, some highs, and some motivation to move forward with. discocandybar.com/2026/09/14/l... 020
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 13/09/2026We’re almost halfway through Cozy StickerVille, and this has been one of the most fun family “game” activities we’ve ever played. Sessions are about 40-60 minutes each, and there are 10 “years” to play through in a story. HIGHLY recommend, even for families less deep into hobby-style board games. 1180
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 08/09/2026I don’t often have legitimate nightmares when I sleep. Last night they seem to have all just decided to push their way through the bottleneck all at once. Like, truly, deeply emotional X gore horror movie shit, completely unattached from any reality-driven circumstances. 000
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 05/09/2026He proudly assumes and asserts that their work is his to profit from. Fuck you, dude. Like, seriously, as painfully as you can get fucked, get fucked that way. 020
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 05/09/2026He encourages aspiring RPG creators to put their work online as free source material so that it can be used to feed his LLM when the writer isn’t actively building their world or game system. As if their hard work and creativity can be better served as bot fuel than as their own personal property. 100
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 05/09/2026He says that because he recognizes that true creativity comes not from AI, but from the human writers he’s “gathering data” from, he is doing something noble and innovative. 100
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Received a request to connect on LinkedIn this morning from a guy who builds and sells “services” that scrape TTRPG sourcebooks to generate AI Role Playing Game narratives and rules engines. 110
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Payton Tolle is the Major League Baseball equivalent of Big Bird. It’s impossible not to love that guy. 000
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 27/08/2026Dear Lord, may 2028 (2026?) come with a big f*ing undo button for all the maps. 000
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 27/08/2026Yeah, I know the kid’s back in school, so arguably summer is over, but it’s still August, dammit. 000
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 26/08/2026When I was in school, they taught us that you could remember the names of the Great Lakes with the acronym “H.O.M.E.S.”. Trump is fully committed to restructuring it into “S.H.A.M.E.”. 000
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 25/08/2026Just realized I was unintentionally double-representing a single city today. 000
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 24/08/2026This morning, after two months working with Warren James and their emerging Tabletop Games team, I tendered my resignation. Sometimes it’s just not the right match. I’m currently available for contracts and part-time work designing and developing tabletop board games and trading card games. 020
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 23/08/2026Opened the Notes app on my phone this morning and discovered this sapling of a thought from last month. No idea what it was about. 010
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 22/08/2026Took Endeavor: Deep Sea for a spin for the first time today. First few rounds were a bit of a slog of checking and rechecking the rule book (“wait, how do I do X again?), but I feel like by mid-game, I was mostly understanding the flow. 000
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 22/08/2026Lego Eeyore is my inner beast. 000
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 19/08/2026And just like that, my ego cup is filled for the morning. 000
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 19/08/2026I’m just here to make games that make people sad. 100
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 12/08/2026Seeking experienced TCG playtesters! For the last 9 months or so, Dave Freeman and I have been working with author Ryan Cahill to create a trading card game for his novels, The Bound and The Broken. We’re currently testing 4 demo decks. We’d love your help! Apply here: forms.gle/4hAUNfQVrCzF... 042
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 09/08/2026I played in a 40-player Magic prerelease event yesterday. Did okay. 040
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 08/08/2026Huh. Never noticed it before, but there’s chorizo in my coffee. 010
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 05/08/2026Wooot Wooot! Who’s got six thumbs and is going to the Oogie Boogie Bash this year? And what do you suppose our costumes are going to be? (Last time we went as Gravity Falls!) 170
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 05/08/2026The peanut bag says Mariners. The TV says Red Sox. Go Boston! 000
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 02/08/2026Come hell or high water, Gen Con next year. On second though, maybe not the high water part. We’ve seen how that turned out. 030
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 31/07/2026While I may not be at Gen Con in person this year, there’s (media preview) demos of one of the games I’ve recently worked on at the Cephalofair Games booth! Mercenaries Wanted, a drafting game set in the Gloomhaven universe, is coming soon! 000
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 29/07/2026It’s a LOT of fun, and has at least one expansion. The insert is garbage though. Ignore it and get ziplocs. 000
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 29/07/2026It’s a little wonky at 3 players, but does 2 and (especially) 4 really well. Abstract strategy, big on spatial thinking, but light enough for an “agent of chaos” (i.e. 5yo) player to have fun with. 000
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 29/07/2026Our kid loved Blokus when he was 5. Others that played well around that age: Barenpark and Tiny Towns. 200
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 27/07/2026What animal would most likely read Chaucer? What animal would be a total Karen at a Burger King? What animal would most likely offer to give up its seat on a subway to an elderly woman with too many shopping bags? 100
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 27/07/2026I’ve needed this for several years. 100
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 21/07/2026If you ever get an Animal Facts hotline phone number going, I will gladly subscribe. 010
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 21/07/2026I assume Jimothy is not an A-hole? 100
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 14/07/2026My brother boards and trains dogs, so all in all, swapping jobs with him for a few days might actually be pretty enjoyable for both of us. 130
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 03/07/2026Current pet situation. They are both farting. 010
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 17/06/2026Watching Back to the Future with Smalls for like the 20th time. My god, the writing in this movie is phenomenal. Kind of freaked out though that if the movie was remade today, Marty would be jumping to 1996, and Heather and I would be a year too old to go to the Enchantment Under the Sea dance. 010
Sean Fletcher, Maker of Games @gamemakerfletch.bsky.social · 11/06/2026There’s a point where the game design takes a detour into technical graphic design. Here’s how I leaned on the things I learned in a former life/career to help guide a new partner in one of my trading card game projects. discocandybar.com/2026/06/11/c... 000
