The music in the game is praised for its chill vibe, perfectly complementing the gameplay and enhancing the overall experience, especially during boss battles. Although there are only two tracks currently, players find them enjoyable, with a clever use of the main theme that shifts to a more relaxing tone after defeating enemies. Overall, the soundtrack adds a significant layer of immersion, though many hope for more variety in the future.
“The chill music was a superb choice for this kind of 'just one more wave' kind of game.”
“In conclusion, I would recommend the game if you like challenging levels after a little long startup time, some classic skill tree building with a twist, and lovely music. The boss battles get me pumped up with these jams!”
“My favorite aspect of the music is how the main theme's melody plays while you are fighting enemies, but only the background instruments play after you beat a wave, making it sound much more relaxing, as if you're taking a breather.”
“The music, while the game only has 2 songs right now, is also a pleasure to listen to.”
