The music in this game features a large but niche library mostly composed of non-copyrighted, indie, and lesser-known tracks spanning various genres like K-pop, Spanish, and electronic, with many users finding the songs catchy though repetitive. While some praise the soundtrack's charm and steady updates, others criticize the limited variety, generic or low-quality tracks, and lack of well-known hits, which can diminish enjoyment for players seeking familiar or mainstream music. Overall, the music is generally considered adequate and enjoyable for casual play but may not satisfy rhythm game enthusiasts looking for polished, synchronized, and diverse song selections.

- “The songs are catchy and the timing of the arrows fits perfectly.”
- “Lovebeat is a really fantastic rhythm game, with cool songs and cute, funny movement.”
- “Grinding for currency feels endless, and the song selection is repetitive.”
- “The graphics, gameplay mechanics, and music selection are all quite lacking.”
- “Key presses don't really match up to the music, so it's more of a random-bashing-of-keys simulator than a legitimate rhythm game.”

The graphics receive mixed reviews, with some praising the anime-style aesthetic and smooth animations, while many criticize the outdated, low-resolution visuals and lack of customization options like resolution settings or key binds. Technical limitations and subpar optimization on larger screens further detract from the experience, making the graphics feel dated compared to modern rhythm games. Overall, though the art style has appeal, the graphics are often seen as a significant drawback.
- “The graphics are pretty gosh darn amazing, simple as well, but has its own "aesthetic touch" to it which I absolutely love.”
- “Lovebeat is a friendly rhythm game that has awesome graphics and cute characters compared to other rhythm games that I already tried before.”
- “The artwork looks amazing, but then you get into the game, and though the character design is very... anime-like, that's the end of the awesome-looking art and graphics.”
- “Terrible graphics user interface - no option to change the game resolution.”
- “The graphic are subpar at most; I love the anime look but the game itself is blurry with the graphics.”
- “Also the graphics can be a con for some because just look at the screenshots/trailer and tell me if it looks like a 2015 game; looks more like a game from 2005.”

The game's story aspect is generally criticized for lacking a traditional narrative, with players mainly engaging through avatar customization and quests rather than an immersive plot. Many users find the quest and social interactions limited and discouraging, reducing motivation to progress or connect with others. However, a minority appreciates the gameplay and story-driven engagement, though this is not the prevailing sentiment.
- “The compelling storyline and riveting gameplay keep me coming back every day for more.”
- “Instead of being presented with a cheesy pre-rendered storyline, players are encouraged to create an avatar of their liking, from the gender (which you can't switch once chosen) to clothing and moods.”
- “Along with the little profile feature and quests with rewards.”
- “Never touch this game on Steam. The App Store version is better, but on PC this game is just depressing. The clothes are expensive and you won't have any friends in the game because people don't socialize. The outfits are the only thing going for this game, other than that it is not community-friendly. PC has a time limit for how long you can play for health, which is good but also annoying for grinders who want to spend a bit more time to buy things with free credits. You lose interest fast as there are better games with better gameplay and storylines with less spending involved. I recommend buying a good game instead of clothes in this app. It's totally not worth it; don't waste your time.”
- “The graphics are brighter than my future, and the story?”
- “This is discouraging as you'll unlikely be able to finish your dailies and quest-based missions as everyone else is keeping to themselves.”
