The music aspect is praised for being an excellent, fully customizable VR music visualizer that syncs well with audio, offering immersive and trippy experiences. Users appreciate its ease of use, particularly for simply listening and switching scenes in VR, though some note it requires playing music outside the app. While highly regarded, a few users suggest more dynamic pattern modulation could elevate it to the best VR visualizer status.
- “Finding the right scene for a song usually made by Kanye and feeling it all while floating around in my cozy bed was an experience today I will never forget.”
- “Just got this and must say I like it, especially the lasers; the lasers seem to keep in time with the music I listen to.”
- “The reason these top my list is that the patterns constantly modulate and change - this means that you can get really lost in the music and visuals.”
- “Because right now when I'm testing 3D music, the bar doesn't look like it's actually recognizing sounds from different directions on a correct scale (the front, middle part of the bar is always the highest).”
- “Does not have music installed; you need to play your music through Steam Music Player or another installed music player.”
- “Suggestion to the devs - there is one thing stopping this from being the best visualizer: at the moment, my favorite on PC is still 'Milkdrop' via 'Virtual Desktop' or Harmonix Music on PSVR.”

The graphics are visually appealing, clear, and well-synchronized, with dynamic, constantly changing patterns that enhance immersion. Customization options for visuals are appreciated, though some users find the in-app menus difficult to navigate due to distracting flashing effects. Overall, the visuals effectively complement the music and contribute to an engaging experience.
- “Visuals are actually pretty good and customizable.”
- “The graphics are very clear and the synchronization is good.”
- “The patterns constantly modulate and change, allowing you to really get lost in the music and visuals.”
- “In-app menus are almost unusable, because it is hard to tell which menu square is currently highlighted with all the distracting visuals flashing nearby.”
- “Yeah, you can use the random playlist function to get around this in a way, but you are then relying on a specific time increment to switch between the visuals, not at will.”
- “The reason these top my list is that the patterns constantly modulate and change - this means that you can get really lost in the music and visuals.”

The game suffers from poor optimization, often crashing on startup at max settings and requiring manual adjustment to lower presets. Performance remains subpar even at low settings, especially in VR, and the menu system is also criticized for being difficult to navigate.
- “Poorly optimized, running at max settings on startup caused the game to crash a few times before it settled on a preset I could lower. Even at low settings, the game runs poorly in VR, and the menu is difficult to navigate.”

The atmosphere is generally considered lacking outside of certain visualizers like "spirograph" and "trails," which are praised visually but don't provide a strong immersive ambiance beyond their graphics.
