What's this game's origin?
It's my compo entry for Ludum Dare 38. Made by one person in less than 48 hours. All assets have been created from scratch. It has no sounds as I ran out of time to add them. There are some small control issues, but in general it works really well :-)
What's up with those graphics?
I'm not an artist, and one of the rules for the compo was that all assets had to be created by me, so I decided to draw them in paper, using my kids' color pencils. It was especially challenging and gratifying drawing all frames for the astronaut's animations. Nothing less than six frames! Impressive :-D

This is a story about a young girl named Tabitha. We all have stories don't we? But I'll wager none of your tales involve a mysterious cottage, a terrifying witch, or a foul-mouthed badger named Colin!

Short and cute, but it sure did make my computer run hard. Secret simon mac os.
I had installed but never tried, I played today. Short but brilliant. lovely, funny. Thank you so much.
I loved this game so much! So simple and short but I enjoyed it heavily xD
Wow! Simply wow! What a hidden gem this is! Short, sweet and absolutely hilarious! This game had me grinning like an idiot from start to finish! Superb work on this game!
Found this by accident buy holy crap i'm so glad I did !
Superb atmosphere, music, artwork and the way you move the globe but the narrator with the 'Rik Mayall' type tone was just amazing. The way a story should be told. Makes you smile the whole way through. Fantastic. Loved it. Well done to all involved.. :)
I'm seeing a crash on start with segmentation fault on Ubuntu 18.04.1 64-bit. Any ideas?
Neverever have I played a game which was able to seriously tell a children's story in such a swearing, and still serious way. Adrian's voice is the perfect one for a narrator, I can imagine him sitting in a cozy armchair in the near of a warm chimney, while reading all of it in a book. It's so atmospherical and funny at the same time, so it's no wonder that you got the 6th place in the whole Ludum Dare 38 with it. <3 I also loved it very much, so I recommended it in a little article as well as uploaded a playthrough video of your wonderful puzzle adventure. :) Thanks for your work, SeaDads!
Best wishes,
Sebastian
I tend to stand while recording, and though I don't have a fireplace, I may well have been wearing a dressing gown at the time, so there was definitely something of the 'comfy evening in' about the whole thing :D
Thanks for playing our game, and sharing it with others :)

That's the perfect attitude for doing that. :D Thanks for this amazing behind-the-scenes production details - it seemed to help to create the ideal atmosphere. ;>
That was marvelous, unique controls and perfect length. Well done!
I enjoyed it, short, sweet, charming, and funny. More stuff like this from you guys would be awesome! :) Aequitas orbis mac os.
From the brilliant narration and comedic tone, to the simple, yet effective graphical style which lends itself to an overall toyish look, Snowed In is a surprisingly fun way to spend a few minutes. Longer if you enjoy needlessly shaking apples around as I did. Everything about this little game was just great. It would be interesting to see a small series of games like this.
Good job on this, devs, and keep up the good work. (By the way, I used my 'expert' editing skills to add the special effects for the magic. I think I nailed the game's style.)
so great:)
Amazing!! Really loved it! Such a great narrator! Great jokes! I wanna see a longer version of this!! Please make it happen!
Stay Rad Everybody!

NICE JOB DEAR DEVS :P
Ludum Dare 46
i loved this
This game had an awesome story and I loved shaking the globe to get apples and solve stuff!
More Youtube Spam, even though you've seen this game be played like a dozen times
I loved the way you control the character, the animation, the voice acting, the story, everything about this was brilliant, I'm just sad it didn't last longer but I can't wait to see more from you guys (The SeaDads) in the future! (Played this a while ago, but forgot to leave feedback way back when).
Many laughs were had >
I had such a fun time with this game! Thank you for making it! <3
Narration is 10/10. A little short but the idea of tilting to get objects to places is brilliant. Surely I have seen games that use tilting as mechanic but I haven't seen an adventure game do it. So I would say this kind of idea would work very well for a full scale game.
This is quite a unique game! the puzzle was straight on wasn't that hard. and the VOICE OF THE NARRRAAATTTTOOOORRRRRRRRRR!!! EMMYYGEEEDDD
Once again i found another great game under 72 hours!
Ludum Dare 38 - Contamination Mac Os Catalina
I gave this game a go and I really enjoyed what's there so far. I really liked the cool game mechanic of tilting the snow globe to move the character and affect the environment.
More of my thoughts:
