Matter has a few cool visuals, sometimes nice music (sometimes there is almost no music, just ambient) and the only thing that kept me distracted and bothered was gameplay.

Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
18 of 119 sampled reviews raised it

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
15 of 119 sampled reviews raised it
Game design and especially sound design are great, the world in the game is pretty but the problems above (especially the gamepad thingy) ruined my experience.
