game over music
Loss screen tune
Game over music is the brief musical passage that plays in video games when a player loses—dies, runs out of lives, or otherwise fails.
These compositions typically convey finality, disappointment, or dramatic defeat, becoming so recognizable that the phrase evokes failure more broadly: That meeting was pure game over music.
