It took me a few seconds to realise how this related to deliver. You're delivering the joke.
I think it's a really unique and innovative take on the theme and by far the most unique entry so far this jam. Personally the humour wasn't to my taste but it did elicit a few laughs out of me. I agree with @whywhy that it is a bit too easy. Maybe adding variable speed for the mouths or different paths it follows could add some challenge to it.
I really do love the concept of the game though and would love to see a polished post dare version.
This is an interesting concept. A stand-up comic simulator would be fun and your jokes had me going. I have a few suggestions, but I like where you're going with this. Could do a behind the scenes day-in-the-life phase where you sit around drinking beer and snorting lines of coke in the green room.
The main game loop was fun, I like a good rhythm game. It was a little unclear to me when to "shoot" the mouth-thing with the mic-reticle, but it worked well enough for my play-through.
Overall, great submission. Lots of points for innovative game design.
Innovative concept and it was interesting to see that messing up the click meant the guy messed up the joke. It's like a rhythm game without any rhythm. Fun to play though. But uhh... don't quit your day job to become a standup comedian.
It's a pretty fun concept, and the gameplay concept was pretty intuitive, but it did kinda just feel like watching a stand up comedy routine. It was a really good idea, and a creative spin on the "Delivery" theme, too. Unfortunately personally the jokes didn't really land for me. Great graphics and mood, too. Overall a well-balanced jam entry, and well polished for the time limit.
The underlying premise is really solid - all it really needs is fleshing out a bit... with a new gimick, or twist, etc., something that would make the game more engaging in the long run, and also make levels a little harder as you go on.
Great take on the theme. I liked the sharp camera changes to keep you on your toes but other than that yeah I'd have to agree with some of the other comments about it being repetitive after a while.

3 levels was too much for this though, especially with no changes between the gameplay in each level.
