The music in the game has been widely criticized for its low-quality, often resembling cheap SNES tracks or cheesy 90s dance tunes, failing to evoke any sense of nostalgia. Many players find it unbearable, contributing to an overall negative experience alongside issues like nausea.
“All you hear is this awful music; sometimes it sounds like low-budget SNES tracks, and other times it's cheesy 90's dance. I don't know if it's supposed to feel nostalgic or what, but it clearly doesn't do the job.”
“Then there is the extreme nausea, which will make even the hardest of VR legs crumble, as well as the truly terrible in-game music.”
