The music in the game has been heavily criticized for being unoriginal and potentially unlicensed, with many users pointing out that it simply overlays different tracks onto stolen animations from animator Alan Becker. Reviewers express frustration over the lack of creativity and the perception that the game is a cash grab, relying on borrowed content rather than original work. Overall, the music detracts from the experience, as it is seen as a poor attempt to mask the use of unauthorized footage.
“Decent gameplay, but you stole an Alan Becker video, made it an ad, and put trash music over it.”
“Change the music as it is from another game and it probably isn't royalty free.”
“I have played this game, having hopes that a stick figure game would be something new to try, but when I got an advertisement showing off Alan Becker's work with a song from Sing 2, I knew that this was a no-good app with a cheap and quick cash grab scam using other people's work to benefit themselves.”
“Putting different music in the background isn't gonna make people think it's not stolen from him.”
