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.
3 levels was too much for this though, especially with no changes between the gameplay in each level.
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.
Really liked the concept though, so well done!
