I saw this on Game Sack and decided to try my own. My music familiarity is much worse than his, but whatever.
The list is meant to be filled out one day at a time, but it's crunch-time.
Rules: Name one original (unless specified) video game track for each category. Only one song per game allowed (a.k.a. "Hard Mode"). Days 3 and 8 will be swapped, because it makes more sense once you get to day 16. Added day 31: Game Over Music, since not all months have 30 days. No embedded videos, URL links only.
