The music in the game has received high praise, with players appreciating the option to choose between modern and chip tune soundtracks, both of which are described as excellent. Reviewers highlight the soundtrack as a standout feature, enhancing the addictive gameplay and charming visuals, with some even purchasing the soundtrack DLC shortly after starting the game. Overall, the music contributes significantly to the game's nostalgic yet modern appeal, making it a delightful experience for players.
“The music is absolutely fantastic; there are tons of characters to unlock that give some extra variety, the art direction keeps the NES feel perfectly but has the bonus of more diverse color palettes, and the game has a solid difficulty curve for normal mode.”
“Also, the music is gorgeous; I was two stages in and I just alt-tabbed and bought the soundtrack DLC.”
“You can choose between 2 soundtracks (modern or chip tunes, and both are excellent).”
“It's like the classic game but with modern gameplay and soundtrack, very enjoyable to play.”
“On top of the addictive gameplay, and a fun audio and visual presentation, this is a really great package, since it features a healthy amount of stages, and plenty of unlockables to keep you coming for more, including countless unlockable characters (some from other Jaleco titles), alternate modes, retro soundtrack options, and a rather healthy amount of materials from past entries in the series (including various box art and cartridge photos, concept art, design documents, and more).”
