How does your game fit the theme?
The game is set literally up in the clouds. The "god" in the game also gets into a "up in the clouds" state of mind as you finish the game...

Was about to go offline, but then I saw your game. It looked funny, so I changed my mind to stay here a little longer. :)

The music is great, the sound effects make it hilarious!

It’s, unfortunately taking a long time to load. It’s always a chance that there’s a connection issue on my end, but it’s possible that the loading time is pretty long.

(...)

After waiting 10+ minutes, it seems it won't load for me. I figured that this is still useful information for you, at least.  I'll try again later!

EDIT: Apparently Safari doesn't love lollipops. I tried it in Firefox and it works just fine.

Okay, I love the graphics and physics. The way the lollipop flings about near the end is a nice touch of increased difficulty. I really enjoyed playing it!

Brilliant, really enjoyed it. Everything seems to work, visuals are great, love the little bit of shading going on on the tongue. Sound is really on theme, the metaphor fits the theme of the jam really well. I would definitely share this with someone I'm trying to give ideas, or friends with the right sense of humour. Great work!

all praise the tongue

This is great. It was interesting to find new methods to lick more? better?. The visuals are great, the sound effects were on point, and I want to see someone speedrun it. The last couple percent were very much like trying to finish a lollipop in real life.

That was an incredibly unique experience. Whoever says video games aren't art has clearly not played this one.

It strikes me as distantly Edmund McMillen-esque, if that's a compliment. Might be the combination of relatable childhood memories with somewhat unsettling body stuff. The physics here were absolutely delightful. (So were the visuals and audio for that matter.)

It's a jam game so I don't want to sound entitled about out-of-scope functionality, but it might be even more fun if you could actually deform the lollipop depending on where you lick it, instead of it just shrinking.

Took me like 35 seconds to run with default settings.

Definitively original game idea.

I have the urge to visit the bathroom now, if you excuse me :joy_cat:

This game is the reason I became an atheist.

(just kidding!)

What an experience wow!

There is not a lot to do, but damn I never saw anything like that before haha, I love it so much, I will be showing it to everyone

I wish only there was a possibility to scratch the tongue with a sharp plastic end when it sticks out of the candy.  I don't know why but I can't stop thinking about it and feeling pain while playing the game.

That was one of the most disturbing games I’ve ever played I think 😂
