I feel you could really expand this into a rich soundscape for a game. You have so much to go on, you could probably create a great game plot from what you already have in sound!

It starts off really eerie, that's great! The 200BPM part starts around 0:23, though to me the song never really feels very strong, powerful and fast - I don't know if the instruments are simply too soft, or that there is not enough layering, or... The different melody-parts do feel nice though, each adding its own idea to the mix. The intro and outro are my favorite, for sure. Nice entry!
My favorite part of this track is the xylophone background part. I wish it was more in the foreground! But I do also enjoy the bass line that takes over. There are a lot of quality sound effects used here. Sometimes when I use sound effects in my music, I try to use them to help tell my story. There must be a really interesting story going on with your track and it would be so cool to see the gameplay you imagine this going with, but at times there were some drastic shifts in the mood of your piece that were a little hard to follow. I think all of your ideas separately are fantastic and I wonder if some small transitions to help glue your story together would be helpful. You definitely have the tempo that feels as fast as it is which I appreciate! Overall great work and thank you for sharing!
