The music aspect of the game has received mixed reviews, with users noting a lack of default songs and issues with the map generator for custom tracks, which often results in poorly aligned notes and a lack of rhythm. While the auto-mapping feature is praised for its ease of use, many user-uploaded songs suffer from mismatched notes and inconsistent quality. Overall, players appreciate the ability to add their own music but express frustration with the game's handling of custom tracks and the initial limited song selection.
“As all rhythm games, you can play to infinity as long as you have music and maps.”
“Dreamvibe is a rhythm game where you use a sword to hit orbs from a specific direction to the rhythm of the music.”
“Adding your own songs and videos is super easy and fast!”
“The game doesn't have a lot of songs at first, so consider adding yours.”
“Mapping for default songs has a lot of notes that don't flow well; non-auto-generated maps should have cool patterns and nice flow instead of feeling random. Many notes don't line up with previous notes, leading to awkward transitions.”
“A lot of the user-downloaded music has no rhythm; the notes don't match the song at all due to being based off the amplitude of the song.”
