    Script in C#. Timer in seconds. Timer stops as soon as win conditions have been achieved.

    I wanted to make it so that when the song ends = game over. So how do I do that? Ignore the 1st request.

    Code (CSharp):
    1. public float songDuration = 180f;
    2.  
    3. void Update()
    4. {
    5.      if (Time.time > songDuration)
    6.            GameOver();
    7. }

    For such a simple thing, Invoke(<insert function name>) would be enough.
