The music in the game is described as cheerful and well-layered, featuring simple, danceable tunes that enhance the colorful and cute aesthetic. However, some players found the repetitive looping of the music to be frustrating, leading them to turn it off entirely due to other gameplay issues. Overall, while the music has its appealing moments, its execution may detract from the overall experience for some players.

“I bought this game thinking it would be like Poi, which is a great title, but I guess I got my hopes up. This game is bad; the camera jumps all over the place, there are glitches, NPC characters say irrelevant things, and the music loops so much I had to turn it off just to play the game.”

The humor in the game is highlighted by its amusing sound effects and quirky dialogue, which add a playful tone to the experience. A particularly funny element involves chickens that, when harmed, fall over and turn green like grass but continue to make noise, showcasing the game's lighthearted approach to comedy.
“(funny note: if you hurt the chickens, they just fall over and become green as the grass. But they still make noise if you touch them. XD)”
“Sound effects are a root of awakening, and it's nice to hear funny slurs and dialogue in shapes and realigned patterns!”
