The music aspect of the game has received mixed feedback, with many users noting the absence of an official soundtrack, which they feel is essential for enhancing the experience. While some recommend pairing the game with specific albums, others express disappointment in the current state, emphasizing the need for background music to complement the solid visuals. A soundtrack is promised for future updates, but as of now, players are encouraged to find their own music.
“If you are looking for music to pair with the game, try any of the following albums: Zaba - Glass Animals, Lonerism - Tame Impala, Liminal - The Acid, Nothing Lasts... But Nothing is Lost - Shpongle, Entheogenic - Entheogenic.”
“Recommended with LSD Dream Emulator OST by Osamu Sato.”
“Solid visuals but no soundtrack; a game like this needs a soundtrack.”

The graphics of the game are widely praised for their vibrant and unique art style, with many reviewers noting the impressive color palette and solid visuals. However, there is a consensus that the game lacks substance and content, making it feel more like a visually appealing walking simulator rather than a fully developed experience. While the visuals are a highlight, players are encouraged to wait for additional content or a sale before purchasing.
“I really want to like this game because the visuals are awesome, but it needs more substance to it.”
“If you do read this, I'd like to say, I really want to like this game, the color palette you've used is excellent, the visuals are pretty awesome and the game has loads of potential.”
“It's about as much of a game as Proteus is - just a pretty walking simulator, but unlike Proteus it has an art style I truly relish.”
“The price is cheap, but unless you're really into just looking at pretty visuals, you should probably wait for a sale or until the developer adds more content.”
“Solid visuals but no soundtrack; a game like this needs a soundtrack.”
“With Trip, the uniqueness is strictly in the visuals.”

The gameplay is perceived as repetitive, lacking new mechanics, but some players express a desire for an open-world experience to enhance engagement. Overall, there is a call for more variety while maintaining familiar elements.
“Personally, more of the same with no further 'gamey' mechanics implemented would be fine; I would then hope for an open world, but...”
