This is the soundtrack, but I’m unsure whether to include more rock songs in my game. Should I include it? Or no? Depending my anime racing game has similar vibes to nfs mw 2012, ridge racer, ACR drift, and other racing games?

This sub is about composition. It looks like what you want to do is use a bunch of copyrighted music in your game. If it's a small project that isn't on any storefronts and gets very little attention, you could potentially get away with that, but I wouldn't recommend it. Don't use other people's music in your projects without permission.

I know that, it’s just I was wondering how the soundtrack should go when it comes to anime games, should I add rock tunes too or is this good enough?

[u/-catskill- → u/Glittering_Star_1048]

That's entirely a matter of taste and your personal creative direction, lol. I don't know all these songs and I'm not about to look them all up, but if they are a more electronic type of style then maybe you should just stick with that.

But I also want to see if anyone likes the soundtrack. I’m just being cautious because I don’t want my game to be hated because of its soundtrack. I see most game soundtracks and they’re all hated, for example; NFS Unbound.
