This game contains examples of the following tropes:
- Anchored Ship: Dallas' route feels like this. Robin puts distance between them because she doesn't want to form a relationship with him only for him to leave and hurt her. They overcome this in the end though.
- Difficulty Levels: Easy, Normal or Hard.
- Hopeless Suitor: In flashbacks, Dallas. Robin was head-over-heels for Sterling at the time and didn't see him in a romantic light.
- Hypocritical Heartwarming: Wizz and Robin will call each other "nerd" and "tramp", but will rip into anyone else who calls the other names.
- Interrupted Intimacy: Dallas' mum walks in on the couple in one of his Open Mode scenes.
- It Doesn't Mean Anything: Robin toDallas, kissing him. Subverted, as he asks her to tell him the truth and not lie to him.
- Kaleidoscope Hair: Invoked by Robin, as you can continually buy Faust hair dye.
- Kiss of Distraction: Wizz. He handcuffs Robin just so he could get to Sebastian first.
- Lead Bassist: Robin falls under this as the lead vocalist and bassist.
- Lonely Rich Kid: Emmitt's dad's a famous rockstar, and his parents pay more attention to his older brother Marcus instead.
- Loving Details: Dallas and Robin have this with each other, mainly due to their history. She remembers to change the station when a song he doesn't like comes up, he describes the details of her eyes when she asks.
- Love Triangle: Dallas liked Robin, who at that time was already in a relationship with Sterling.
- Male Band, Female Singer: True for Story Mode, and can be invoked by the player in Open Mode as well.
- Mistaken for Cheating: Faust mistakes Robin for cheating simply because she buys him opera tickets.
- New Game Plus: After completing Story Mode once, Open Mode unlocks where Robin can create a new band and carry on playing indefinitely.
- Oblivious to Love: Robin. Emmitt's crush on her always comes as a surprise, and she finds it impossible that Dallas liked her.
- The Nicknamer: Robin often gives her band members nicknames. She calls Emmitt 'Kirby' and her calls her 'Bobby' in return. Beau is 'Ponytail,' and Dallas is 'Freelancer'.
- Video Game Cruelty Potential: There's the opportunity to start Open Mode with a previous romance, so if you pursue another character you break your old partners heart. Especially heart-wrenching when there's been so much character/relationship development in Story Mode.
- You Never Did That for Me: Robin says this about Sterling to Emmitt, when he hands her a towel because she thinks she's about to vomit.
