The music in the game is generally described as relaxing and meditative, complementing the cute art style. However, some users find the sound effects during gameplay to be loud and distracting, detracting from the overall calming experience. While the music itself is appreciated, its repetitive nature can become monotonous over time.

The monetization strategy of Myarcadegames studios has been criticized for being unethical, as they are accused of exploiting others' work for profit on Steam, often through questionable practices and alternative accounts.
“Myarcadegames studios have shown a repeat pattern of unethically dumping other people's work onto Steam as a cheap, nasty cash grab, through this account or through closely linked/alternate accounts.”
