The drums are a bit 'wrong'. I'm not much against synths (tho the arp/chip'ness may go, if you ask me), but the drums really don't match the rest of the sound.
I think it's not 100% suitable for games tho, not so much regarding its composition (which is not highly spectacular, but it could work in some situations), but mainly regarding sounddesign/arranging/mix. The tune could benefit greatly from more layers, not just things like (synth-)strings, but also noises 'n soundscapes.
It's like having a classic/retro arcade platformgame like Sonic. You'd prefer the background to dissolve into one color (darkblue orso), much like having fog. This will make the frontlayer standout. Additionally you'd want things a bit blurry, which again brings forward the clean 'n crisp frontlayer. So when it comes to anything 'background'ish, it's suggested to have things flat, fuzzy and blurry. This music however is mixed/produced/arranged as if it were the 'frontlayer' so to say. With that, the music grabs the attention and is thus less suitable for background music. Adding sound-layers makes the music more fuzzy/blurry.
