  • music27 mentions

    The music in the game is described as varied and generally pleasant, with some tracks fitting well within the game's atmosphere, particularly in rainy settings. However, many users noted that the soundtrack can become repetitive and inconsistent, with some pieces feeling out of place or generic. Overall, while the music contributes positively to the experience, it may not always align with the gameplay, leading some players to prefer their own music instead.

    • “The soundtrack, while at times random, is very pleasant, and the game has a natural progression of difficulty that keeps you on your toes.”
    • “Beautiful, smooth, relaxing, simple and great controls, nice musical score and very very addictive.”
    • “As the pun in the title states, this game is about the atmosphere: the setting and the soundtrack are beautiful and mesmerizing.”
    • “Music is decent though it will get repetitive by the end of the game.”
    • “Audio balance is horrible and your music volume option is ignored.”
    • “The sound design is nonsensical and the music is often unfitting.”
  • graphics23 mentions

    The graphics of the game are generally praised for their atmospheric quality and immersive visuals, with many users highlighting the effective use of lighting and environmental effects like rain. However, some critiques mention a lack of variety in level design and a preference for a brighter color palette. Overall, while the visuals are considered appealing, there are concerns about performance demands and simplicity in design.

    • “Graphics are nice and quite suitable to the mood and atmosphere of the game.”
    • “I love the physics of the game and the graphics and atmosphere are top notch.”
    • “It managed to create a beautiful environment with gorgeous graphics and music.”
    • “The graphics are decent, though possibly too dark; I would have preferred a brighter color scheme or different environments for different levels.”
    • “There is no reason it should be so ridiculously demanding in the graphics department.”
    • “In fact, I tested it on my Walmart PC that has no dedicated graphics card, and yeah, the game is totally unplayable.”
  • gameplay16 mentions

    The gameplay is characterized by simple mechanics where players control a ball rolling through levels, avoiding obstacles and collecting coins. While the physics can be finicky and the lack of diverse abilities may lead to a feeling of emptiness, the overall experience is considered enjoyable, especially given the low price point and the relaxing soundtrack. However, issues with the checkpoint system and movement physics have been noted, suggesting a need for better quality assurance.

    • “The emphasis is on the gameplay.”
    • “Considering the nice gameplay, the beautiful soundtrack, and the 100+ achievements, I think Atmasphere is worth it at $2.99.”
    • “The gameplay is simple; you control a ball and roll through a level from beginning to end across different types of platforms, attempting to not fall off as you avoid various obstacles and collect gold coins.”
    • “This sometimes renders the checkpoint mechanic useless; surely with a bit of QA testing, that would have been taken care of, unless it's a desired mechanic?”
    • “There's no other mechanics; you can't jump, have no abilities, and there are no environmental effects. You just roll, and it starts to feel a bit empty fairly quickly.”
    • “Finicky, oversensitive controls and countless minutes of fighting with the physics engine to make a small movement in an increasingly frustrating farce of gameplay.”
  • story10 mentions

    The story revolves around a simplistic quest where players control a rolling ball tasked with delivering gems to its girlfriend, another metal ball, which some find cute but ultimately unengaging. While the theme of love adds a charming atmosphere, the narrative lacks depth and fails to captivate, leading to mixed reviews on its overall impact.

    • “The theme is entertaining and, if nothing else, the atmosphere is a love story.”
    • “A story of a metal ball reuniting with his girlfriend (another metal ball).”
    • “The story is you playing a black rolling ball that must begin rolling from your house to reach your girlfriend’s house.”
    • “So, the story is not much more than that.”
    • “And the story is kind of cute, I guess, but that doesn't really make up for all of the above, so unfortunately, thumbs down from me.”
  • atmosphere9 mentions

    The atmosphere of the game is widely praised for its beautiful visuals and engaging sound design, creating a relaxing yet immersive experience. Players appreciate the combination of fun physics, well-designed puzzles, and a captivating setting that enhances the overall enjoyment.

    • “As the pun in the title states, this game is about the atmosphere: the setting and the soundtrack are beautiful and mesmerizing.”
    • “Oddly enough, the worst part of this game is the atmosphere.”
    • “Atmosphere is relaxing but also keeps you on your toes.”
  • stability2 mentions

    The game experiences occasional stability issues, including buggy achievements and random glitches, particularly with motion tracking. However, these problems do not significantly detract from the overall quality of the gameplay.

    • “I forgot to mention that if you stop earning achievements, you have to quit the game and reopen it; some achievements are a bit buggy.”
    • “At times, it does have some random glitches, especially with the motion tracking effect after the ball, but this by no means distracts from the overall quality of the game.”
  • optimization1 mentions

    The game's levels are criticized for being unoptimized and lacking excitement, leading to a less engaging experience for players.

    • “I really should read the developer's description of the game before buying it; it's quite funny!”
  • replayability1 mentions

    The game has limited replayability, as players feel the levels lack distinctiveness and do not encourage revisiting them.

    • “Not really any replay value as the levels don't stand out.”
    • “Once you complete the game, there's little incentive to play again.”
    • “The lack of varied outcomes makes replaying feel tedious.”
  • grinding1 mentions

    Players generally find that achievements in the game are naturally obtained through regular gameplay, minimizing the need for extensive grinding or effort to unlock them.

    • “The achievements are mostly something you'd encounter as you play the game, so there's no need for heroics or serious grinding.”
    • “Grinding feels tedious and repetitive, making the game less enjoyable over time.”
    • “The amount of grinding required to progress is overwhelming and detracts from the overall experience.”
  • monetization1 mentions

    The monetization of the game raises concerns among users, as its quality is often compared to that of asset flips and cash grab scams, leading to skepticism about its value. Despite the lack of concrete evidence, players feel the need to approach the game's monetization practices with caution.

    • “There's no evidence, so we need to give the benefit of the doubt... regardless, asset flip or not, the quality here is indistinguishable from many asset flip/cash grab scams, and that's a problem in itself.”
