The music in the game has been widely criticized for its lack of quality, described as a monotonous and dissonant soundscape that detracts from the overall experience. Many players suggest muting the game entirely to enjoy it, as the soundtrack is perceived as irritating and poorly executed. Overall, the ambient sounds and music are seen as significant drawbacks that need urgent improvement.
- “The music is just as weird; I don't even know how to describe it.”
- “The soundtrack is possibly the most frustrating thing to endure through 100 levels.”
- “For what it is, it's a decent source of fun (if you mute it).”
- “Also, the music (if you can call it that) is just some kind of long note that's like a really slow Shepard tone with random sounds, like someone played a single note slowed down to 10% speed and that got recorded in a tunnel using another device. The random noises are from whatever happened right outside the tunnel.”
- “Well, it has a laundry list of issues (the 'music'; everything thinks I meant 'puzzle' not 'puzzzle'; it's just a platformer, there's no puzzle aspect to it; did I mention the 'music'? ...), but for what it is, it's a decent source of fun (if you mute it).”
- “The soundtrack is possibly the most unbearable thing to endure through 100 levels, though. It's just a straight-up waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh.”

- “Some of the mechanics simply didn't work, and many of the levels were just repeats of previous ones with one or two 'obstacles' added.”
- “The gameplay feels repetitive and lacks innovation, making it hard to stay engaged.”
- “There are numerous bugs that disrupt the flow of gameplay, leading to frustrating experiences.”

Users report stability issues, particularly with the collision mechanics of pushable cubes, which can lead to unexpected sliding behavior even on flat surfaces.
