The music in the game is generally well-received, with players enjoying its fun and catchy nature, though some express a desire for more variety and the ability to add their own tracks. While the original compositions are praised for their quality and integration with gameplay, users also note frustrations with the limited song selection and lack of a main menu for song selection. Overall, there is optimism for future updates that could expand the musical offerings and enhance the experience.
“The music is fun, the characters are cute and the graphics are well done.”
“I was first attracted by the visuals, but once in the game, I found the original music pieces even more impressive.”
“Got to say being part of the music itself makes a lot of difference for this game, can't wait to have the full version with more content.”
“So it's like 8 songs total.”
“The very first song keeps saying 'try again' when I thought I did it right.”
“It also needs a main menu selection option; once you start a song you can't exit to a different one until the song is over, which forces you to close the game entirely and then reopen it.”
