Really nice music, art, sound, idea! For menly problem is, the game's difficulty rises quickly, at least for me. Didn't make it past experiment 7. I find it really hard to aim with my cursor for some reason...
Regardless of the difficulty, I did quite enjoy the game. Reminds me of Will You Snail - you don't complete a level until you suddenly make one precise jump; the completion is just so satisfying after the struggle.
Come to think of it - I only just realized that I take the role of Edgar, and face his struggles with the Slurpies (I am pretty dumb). I'll bet it's hard for Edgar to conduct these "experiments" without his Slurpies dying so many times... it's kinda depressing.
You and Jonas did really well. The game is beautiful. Since this was created in only 2 or 3 days, I guess I can expect some rather high difficulty or a really annoying bug or something; the whole point of the game is to stay around the theme of LD!
I like the idea itself, but for me the platforms are too sensitive, when you barely move your mouse and it rotates almost 270 degrees. But shooting Slurpies to the air is very enjoyable itself, so who cares XD
Edit: Just finished the entire game and the 5 experiment was the most difficult to me, because of the difficulty to control the platforms to rotate them as I want them. You need to move your mouse very slowly to manage to control it, but still, there are situation where you'll move it a little bit too strong and you slurp flies away. And here is the second problem: Camera. When your slurp moves quickly, camera follows is too slow and it's difficult to see, what to expect below or next to it. So maybe camera follow speed should be based on move speed of slurpie itself or try to find balance between cam follow and slurpie max speed to prevent situations like this.
Some people said, that they were stuck on 7 experiment and i understand why. It's all about controls, which i mentioned above(even before edit). That's the biggest issue of gameplay, but I know, it's a jam game and the time restriction so it's sometimes difficult to get everything right.
Anyway, I liked it despite of that annoying controls and camera, which was following the slurpie too slow when it was moving fast. Shooting the green characters in the air and watching them fly to the sky is enjoyable enough, but anyway, in terms of graphics and sound effects it's polished, so it makes that small world alive
