The music in the game is generally well-received, with users appreciating the inclusion of good tracks that enhance the experience. There are suggestions for improvements, such as automatic song detection from streaming services, which could further elevate enjoyment. Overall, the combination of relaxing tunes and retrowave aesthetics contributes positively to the game's atmosphere.
“Thanks for the songs, great idea what you did there.”
“A relaxing 'endless road' driver with retrowave aesthetics, nice graphics, good music, and amusing cheesy quips.”
“But if you want to really make it enjoyable, you should add eventually things such as: controlling the traffic density, more car options for the same track, and what I mentioned earlier of the game detecting the songs automatically and the synth doing its thing in consequence since most people (myself included) don't have any music downloaded, we simply listen to it through streaming.”
“The game should have a way to recognize when audio is being played from an app or in general, so you don't have to manually put the songs in the files.”
“To enhance the experience, it would be great to add features like controlling traffic density, more car options for the same track, and automatic song detection, as most players (myself included) don't have music downloaded and prefer streaming.”
“The game needs to automatically detect songs and allow the synth to adapt accordingly, since many players, including myself, rely on streaming services rather than downloaded music.”
