I love the retro feel! It sounds like they could be from an actual game! They actually remind me a bit of Kirby music, especially "Chase!" (which is my favorite). Great work!

Description
I took the "Runaway" theme and thought of a game, where the levels have the player escape from an enemy or a hazard, by running through the level in a limited amount of time.
The first track "BRIEFING" is for the start of the level, where the player is explained the level and the clearing conditions.
The second track "CHASE!" is a track that plays while trying to clear the level.
The third track "Mission Complete" plays after successfully passing the level/stage, during the score screens.
Software used:
I used Steinberg Cubase Artist 11 for the whole thing.
All the instruments are from a library for the Kontakt sampler VST, called Magical Box 2.0.

Theme:
Runaway
How does it fit the theme?
I used the "Runaway" theme as the basis for my imaginary game concept, for which i wrote the tracks.
