I couldn’t return to Hunting Pearl Creek after finishing it, which is just disappointing.

The music is simple, but after listening for an hour or two, it became too annoying to leave on. The sound effects, however, from its beeping and booping as characters talk, the sound of explosions, and the pew pews from the laser guns, were all great.
