The music in the game is described as both relaxing and amusing, though it suffers from issues such as being too loud and glitchy. Additionally, the lack of proper audio controls frustrates players, forcing them to use external methods to adjust the sound. Overall, while the music can provide a calming experience, its execution leaves much to be desired.
“I relaxed for 5 minutes listening to this music, long enough to realize that I would be okay.”
“The music is a little glitchy and too loud with no settings, but it's hilarious.”
“Bewilderingly, the game doesn't include proper audio controls, so you can't turn off the annoying background music. You'll need to alt+tab out and stop the music using the Windows sound mixer.”
