The music sure is... something. It would be fun to see this idea explored more in depth. A few small things could be improved, though.  I think the background would have been better if it was a darker color. Currently the contrast between the blue droplets and the background is a bit low, so it's hard to see if you drop any.

I thought few things that I would consider adding. I think it would benefit from some acceleration and momentum to the cup; this might make it more challenging, but would make interacting with it feel much better. Also, I wasn't sure if I was completing the puzzles successfully at first! I didn't notice the UI until the third level. I also like to know how many levels I have left when I'm playing puzzle games for Ludum Dare, it often helps me play longer to know I'm only stuck on the last level!
