I don't like it at all. You should definitely improve your drawing skills, they're just dreadful. The idea was not that bad, however the lack of skills....

Pretty creepy but a nice, short experience. Great work.

I really liked the game! It made me want to play it again to see if there was anything I have missed. I also like the hand drawn style, because it really surprises you if the picture changes, especially when it is kinda poorly drawn like that.

It could use some more polishing and bug fixing but I know time is short ;)

This is one of the most fun games I've played on ld 30.
I liked the drawings and how the alternate realities
interact with each other. This concept can be worked on
to a larger scope and seeing an extended version of this
game would be awesome.
I believe this is one of my higher scored entries, well done
with this great little game!

The drawings are lush and lovely, but the animations could do with a bit of polish. However, for 72 hours it is admirably pretty -- and creepy.

This game had the creepiest vibe out of that I've played so far this LD. That said, it's obvious you are very creative and were successful in making a great game. Just wish it was a bit longer :)

nice "pencil" style, others have said they didn't like it, but I actually found it quite charming.

I like how you implemented the theme in two ways.

Also liked the art style - it adds to the atmosphere.

Actually, the way it's drawn is more then appropriate. Expected more from the ending, but visually it might be one of my favorites. Puzzles are simple, but fun to solve. Also good job with animating the main character.

Really liked the art style. Sound effects were great at creating an atmosphere. Very creepy (in a good way)!

Nice graphics, interesting atmosphere. You could pull out a really creepy game from this environment.

Interesting art assets. It's nice to see something hand-drawn in such a short amount of time.

I wish I could give more stars for mood. That was fucking terrifying. The story didn't make much sense to me, though, and sometimes Alex's big head was in the way of stuff :< I want to know... was there more than one ending?

I tried to open the game on my PC, but it would quit after the loading screen. I'm using an old computer with Windows XP though, which may explain it.

I left my ratings as N/A so that it does not affect your scores. Good luck

@Victory Garden - No, there are no more endings unfortunately. I'd add them if I had more time. BUT if there is a sequel to Seminecata in the future, It'll for sure have multiple endings :D

@waynaul - I'm sorry you couldn't play it :( We've tested the game on few machines with Win 8.1, Win 7 and Win XP, but they were quite new and we didn't have any problems with running it. Thank you for leaving the ratings empty :)

Just, wow! Creepy!
Really nice concept, and I liked the hand draw style for the jam entry. For a complete game it might not work.
The way the worlds connects is well done.
The only thing I missed was some kind of feedback from interactable things, specially in the eye-door scene, where I failed to click the hole many times :X
