Nice one, but my CPU fans got really loud (normally this loud when I play games) xD. I'm not a web developer, but I'm pretty sure this is something that can be fixed :)

What does "in this room: 25" mean? The number remains the same when I change the station. Is there only a single room and I changed the station for everybody? Or are there 25 people in every room (=station)? :-)

It's the current visitors. I liked the word "room" to make you feel like you're in good company, but maybe it'd be better to just write "live now". What do you think?

I like the "room" terminology. Maybe just make it clearer that it's not a room number, but the number of people hanging out in the room with you?

I like the different stations, though would be cool to know how many people are listening to the same station.

Song names would be good as well and the option to disable to background image/animation to save CPU.

Overall I like it.

What do you call the art style like this? It reminds me of a game called Va11-halla. I kind of like it, but it's frustrating that I can't name what it is. I see random Japanese texts here and there that are obviously made by non-Japanese people (they're awkward). "Foreigner's image of Tokyo's city life"?

City-Pop?

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Ouch you're totally right. I want to add an option to have static JPGs instead of GIFs. Already added to the backlog.

Video may be cheap, too: h.264 or WebM are relatively low cost on even reasonably modern devices.

I would go for videos + options to go with static assets. You could pause background video playback when the tab is not active.

It gives me an 80s vibe.
