The music in the game has received mixed reviews, with some players finding it relaxing and enjoyable, while others criticize its low quality and generic nature. Many users appreciate the option to play their own music in the background, but express frustration over ineffective sound sliders that fail to adjust sound effects or music volume properly. Overall, the music aspect seems to detract from the gameplay experience for some, overshadowed by annoying sound effects.
“I relaxed for 5 minutes listening to this music, long enough to realize that I would be okay.”
“I had a coupon code for this game and thought that I'd play it. 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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“Crappy single soundtrack generic music that does not even autoloop, and mediocre graphics.”

The gameplay is centered around a vertical shooter format where players clear levels by achieving specific score targets. While there is a button that changes the background music, it does not influence the gameplay mechanics. Overall, the game functions well, but detailed descriptions can be found in the provided store screenshots.

“Vertical shooter game whose gameplay involves clearing levels by achieving a set amount of score.”
