The music in the game is described as relaxing and conceptually appealing, but it is criticized for being repetitive and obnoxious, contributing to an overall frustrating experience due to its lack of variety across levels.
“I relaxed for 5 minutes listening to this music, long enough to realize that I would be okay.”
“It has a great concept and the level challenges are decent, even if you ignore the fact that every level looks the same, has the same obnoxious music, or has awful hitboxes that make the difficulty annoyingly frustrating most of the time.”
