The music is characterized as fast-paced 8-bit game music, which some players feel contrasts with the desired vibe, suggesting a preference for a slower tempo and softer synths. However, opinions on the music are subjective, and individual tastes may vary.

- “I personally think that it would fit the vibe better if the music had a slightly slower BPM and softer synths with more subtle bass and stronger stabs.”

- “To cement the position of this asset flip as nothing but a cash grab, it was dumped onto cheap daily indie game shovelware bundles very shortly after launch.”
- “Here's some other asset flips from exactly the same template, all shamelessly dumped on Steam as nasty cash grabs.”
