Users find the music aspect lacking, noting that the game currently features no music at all, which contributes to a bare-bones experience. Additionally, the short time between waves leaves little room for atmosphere or engagement.
“Right now, it's pretty bare bones. There is only one map, and what I miss the most is the addition of a flashlight (the first thing that needs to be implemented). Additionally, there is no music, and the time between waves is very small—only 15 seconds!”
