The music in the game is generally praised for its quality, particularly appealing to fans of electronica and dance genres, providing an engaging soundtrack that enhances the gameplay experience. However, some players feel that the visual elements, while visually appealing, do not always synchronize well with the music, resembling a random visualizer rather than a cohesive rhythm-based experience. Additionally, the lack of an option to play custom tracks is noted as a downside for some players.
“Trip series if you want a good music game.”
“The music is something that many people can 'rave' to, and the environments I've played through express a deeper meaning that I intend to explore in time.”
“Just play the game and enjoy the music!”
“Be it a cube that is just sitting there being a cube, to balls of light, to flying crystals, etc. that are all supposedly set to the music but feels more like a pretty random visualizer to go along with a decent soundtrack.”
“Probably not for anyone that doesn't like electronica/dance music.”
“One sad thing is you can't play custom music tracks.”

The graphics of the game have received mixed feedback; while some players appreciate the unique visual style and find it engaging, others have reported issues with responsiveness, such as lagging crosshairs that detract from the overall experience. Additionally, the lack of customizable graphics options has been noted as a downside.
“This game is very interesting; I like the playstyle and graphics. It's like rhythm shooting, where you shoot random creatures that pop up. It also has mysterious stories. I really recommend this if you like rhythm shooting games.”
“I tried changing the OS down to XP, altering the resolution (as there are no actual graphics options), but the crosshair lags behind by around 1/2 to 1 second, making the game feel unresponsive and a letdown.”
