  • Awesome Music: If a premade track says "F.L. Cooley" is the artist, it's bound to be this. "Max the Conductor" is one of the more famous tracks in the game, and "Mishiko", though an easter egg, is breathtaking. "Abblahh" is also pretty good, and also one of the few tracks remembered by people who grew up with the game.
  • Funny Moments: "Washingtune" is, in itself, nothing special; the song is just Yankee Doodle. It's the song being played in part on George Washington's teeth, while he just stares with a "not this shit again" expression, that sells it.
  • Hilarious in Hindsight:
  • Nightmare Fuel:
    • A couple of the Gallery songs.
      • "Bird In The Dark" has its notes laid out in such a way as to where it looks like the titular bird has teeth.
      • "Watching The World Go By" can hardly even be called a song; its bugs warp around the screen at maximum speed, on a very short loop and barely audible, as an eerie disembodied face stares at the player.
    • The selectable background with a large, low-poly bust of Ludwig Van Beethoven, staring blank and lifeless. How it's used in "Ode to Joy" makes it worse; the song, unlike most, is saved zoom-in, encouraging the player to zoom out. It turns out the song is compressed into that tiny space; zooming out reveals that nothing at all is drawn on most of the grid, the bust dominating the whole screen.
