The music in the game is perceived as generic and reminiscent of a trippy visualizer, with players expressing disappointment that the engaging soundtrack from the store page is not included. Many feel that the game would benefit from a synthwave soundtrack and neon aesthetics to enhance the overall experience.
“Interesting platform puzzle game, the developer is quick to respond and fix any issues. It would be cool with some synthwave music and neon lighting signs.”

“The graphics look outdated and lack the polish expected from modern games.”
“Textures are low resolution, making the environment feel bland and uninviting.”
