I like it, it's got a the salient elemnts there. To my ears it sounds a bit muddy, so maybe eq a bit more here and there. It becomes quite repetitive from about 35s + which is a tough one as these tracks are repeitive by nature, but as a very good forum member said to me "give the editor options". The woosh at 1:40 also isnt the best, sounds almost cartoonish. It's too loud in either case, but try and swap out for something like a reverse cymbal if you don't have a big sample library. I'd also play around with your panning a bit, to keep the listener engaged, but that's just my 2 cents.

Don't be peturbed though, it's got all the factors there, just needs tweaking.

I really liked the idea of keeping the same musical motif while only changing the percussive patterns and sounds in the background.
I think you could make one more small change—playing that motif with an additional synth sound alongside the existing one.
Not something drastically different, but just enough to add some variation and a fresh musical touch while maintaining consistency and flow.
