Description
The soundtrack for a single screen 16-bit early '90s era game where you catch, roll and count dice enemies.
The theme 'Runaway Dice' would play on the titlescreen.
'Roll 'Em' would play during the catch/roll phase of a round, where you lock the enemies' numbers one by one, simultaneously creating an order.
'Count 'Em' would play during the count phase of a round, wherein you count the enemies in the order that you rolled them (difficulty is determined by the number of enemies). When the count phase ends (timer is up), the locked-in numbers for each correctly ordered enemy are accumulated as your score.
If your final score at the end of a round doesn't reach the minimum to get to the next, 'It's Over' plays, otherwise you get 'Stage Clear'.
Message from the artist:
I hope it brings you a smile!
Theme:
How does it fit the theme?
The dice enemies in the game run away (bit of a stretch of the theme) from you, and it is your goal to catch and roll them for points.

Retro goodness! Roll' Em is groovy and I can envision it in the roll phase.
Love how you made win and lose riffs, and even a song that I imagine would play while you stare at the roulette wheel and hope to not hear the lose theme. I also like the breathy lead in the title theme. Great job!
"Count em" is a cool song, I liked how it was pure percussion and employs a lot of interesting sounds that sound "dicey"
Classic and objective! Nice one, man!😁
An enjoyable soundtrack, good work!
Nice! The themes sound like very jazzy chiptune/8-bit music! Your game idea seems nice too, it would be interesting if u did make it into a game!
These are some great tunes for the game you describe. They would really compliment the game well.
Thank you very much!
Nice work. The overall sound is good and your game concept seems interesting. The Game Over and Stage Clear songs are a nice touch.
Thanks, I appreciate it!
