The music in the game has received largely negative feedback, with users describing it as generic and low-quality, akin to a poorly produced YouTube video. While some players appreciate the option to play their own music, they criticize the ineffective sound settings that fail to adjust sound effects or music volume properly, leading to a frustrating experience. Overall, the music aspect detracts from the gameplay rather than enhancing it.
“I relaxed for 5 minutes listening to this music, long enough to realize that I would be okay.”
“I must say this is really addictive, plus you can play your own music in the background while you play. The price is excellent, 9/10 definitely worth the buy.”
“So basically, this button only changes the music in the background, and it doesn't seem to affect gameplay in any way.”
“Crappy single soundtrack generic music that does not even autoloop, and mediocre graphics.”
“Next thing that happens is that the menu loads up and you start hearing some low quality music, like a YouTube video locked at 144p, but for sound, or something like that.”
“But what really bugs me is that the SFX slider doesn't actually decrease the sound effects, and the music volume probably doesn't change a thing either; I haven't bothered to try that one.”
