The way the aiming works and the occasional lag makes it a bit hard, but that same aiming system makes the game feel somewhat fresh.

Quite fun. I didn't play all the way through, but used the level select to try the last level - I like that you included an animation for when the game is won.

I liked the gooey physics. I didn't understand the difference between red and green apples.

Cool game, but the controls ruined it for me. If you're hiding the mouse cursor, at least replace it with something which helps you aiming. With not cursor at all, aiming is more up to luck than skill. Additionally, the slow cannon movement makes it even more annoying.
The transition beteween levels was a bit "rough" - when you complete one, the game sorta seems to freeze for a few second until the next level starts. It almsot seems like the game crashed the first time.

Not sure how the theme is incorporated, but anyway: Good implementation, with some issues. Faster enemies just passed right through slower enemies, body pieces can obscure camera, correct aim seemed to inexplicably miss enemies sometimes.
