The music in the game is generally described as fitting for the gameplay, though some players found it repetitive and wished for more variety. There are no options to adjust sound settings, which detracted from the experience for some users, leading them to play their own music instead. Overall, while the soundtrack complements the game, its lack of diversity and customization options were noted as drawbacks.
“I didn't pay too much attention to the music, but it was fitting for the gameplay, and I don't believe it was limited to a single song.”
“Some of the cons I have with this game could be tweaked out with an options menu, from being able to adjust the music and volume to being able to toggle the spinning vortex animation.”
“The soundtrack was eventually worn down for me since it was always the same.”
“There don't appear to be any settings for sound, music, resolution, or anything.”

The gameplay features a solid twin-stick shooting mechanic with a dash ability that adds variety and challenge, particularly through encounters with boss angels and diverse projectiles. While the upgrade system is interesting and the gameplay loop is enjoyable for its price, the overall experience is somewhat hindered by poor graphic design.
“With a dash mechanic (which can be weaponized) and boss angels that fire different projectiles, there is a decent amount of variety and challenge.”
“The gameplay is solid enough, featuring basic twin-stick style shooting to take down waves of enemies coming at you from the sides of the screen.”
“Pretty simple, but a decent enough gameplay loop for a dollar.”
“The game has a fun concept, an interesting upgrade system, and bearable gameplay, yet it suffers from terrible graphic design.”
