I agree with this. You could maybe have a system where you collect CDs that play little tracks. But overall I think the sound effects essentially make the background music.

I wish all my video games were more “video gamey”, or placed a special emphasis on being so. Because, well, they are video games, after all. Makes more sense than turning video games into movies, and using “video gamey” as a derogatory term for video games that aren’t trying to be like interactive movies.

An online or local co-op mode where you and your friends are different slime colors and you can solve puzzles together would be SO cute and fun. if there was a built in dungeon maker, you could even make your own puzzles. Also, a very light and spaced out (lots of time that’s just silence) piano soundtrack would do wonders.
