The music in "music boy 3d" features rhythmic, fast-paced tracks that drive the gameplay, with the unique mechanic of collecting shapes to keep the music playing continuously. Users appreciate the included soundtracks and the ability to import and create custom music levels, though file format support is limited and manual level creation can be time-consuming. Some find the automatic songs uninspired, and the lack of a checkpoint system can make longer tracks challenging to complete in one go.
- “The game plays out like a 3D runner version of Guitar Hero as you press keys to a beat and dodge obstacles, collecting little shapes to keep the music playing.”
- “I had fun with the included tracks, and actually making my own level by importing a song from my computer was fun as hell.”
- “+Ability to add your own music”
- “+Nice soundtracks”
- “"Music Boy 3D" is one of literally thousands of creatively bankrupt asset flips infesting Steam and lowering the average quality of all video games everywhere.”
- “You can upload your own songs, but the game supports the wrong file formats and leaves out good types, not even supporting mp4. This is frustrating because most of the automatic songs in the game are tasteless, and I have a bunch of mp4s that would be much better than the selected automatic ones.”
- “That's definitely true for "Music Boy 3D", and this kind of asset flipping never results in games that have quality or value for PC gamers.”

- “The gameplay is just fun.”
- “It's just gameplay.”
- “This garbage asset flip was a failed attempt to blend endless runner mechanics with Guitar Hero QTE mechanics, as well as a bizarre attempt by the developer to turn on people's webcams for unknown reasons.”
- “The gameplay is just gameplay, lacking any unique or engaging elements.”
- “While the title screen isn't very visually appealing and the main character looks silly, the actual gameplay shows some potential but is ultimately overshadowed by other flaws.”

The game's replayability is significantly enhanced by a strong community-driven level editor, enabling players to create and share custom content, similar to Geometry Dash. This ongoing influx of user-generated maps keeps the experience fresh and engaging over time.
