Phronemophobia's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[-Heads Will Roll-]

In less than an hour, you turned Bertn's Cute'em Up into a Space Harrier clone.
I don't see (or hear) a problem with this.

[Heads Will Roll (2013)]

"Dang it, Walter! You did this. Not me. I told you, 'No aerial stunts!' You know I don't like riding in one of these things."

See, it's a Cute'em Up featuring Squirrely Boots as she fights her way through eight levels of high flyin' oddities in order to rescue Admiral Cheeseburger from an adorably vicious crew of sky pirating shrews.

Bertn1991 responds:

Tales from Arcadia reference instantly make my day. You are officially the best.

Also, Walter needs to stop his reign of tyranny >.<

[-Inferno-]

You definitely made the fight a far more terrifying experience than Bertn intended for his game. Perhaps he can use this as a hard mode version for an unlockable boss rush option after the player completes the story mode of Crystal Crusade.

[-Dog Republic-]

This doesn't differentiate itself enough to really make me want to listen to it over the original, but it does provide myself a flimsy excuse to have a favorite on my playlist more than once.

[Mushroom Forest Dance]

I hear an awful lot going on with this piece, and I'm just amazed at how it doesn't end up sounding like a cluttered mess. It's a testament to your talent, Flops.

[NGUAC Round 2 WIP]

Sounds like you were inspired by the old DKC games. That or I've been playing a little too much Tropical Freeze lately. Either way, I'm anxious to hear the finished piece.

[Garden of Roses Reharmonization]

Not my sort of tune, but it's a lovely song and I think it's wonderful that you put in the time and effort to help add some complexity to her music.

[Simple orchestral loop]

A perfect lil' piece of music.

[AIM - The Mountain]

In relation to the artwork that inspired this piece, the music feels a little too pleasant to connect with the sight of a jagged, snowy mountaintop. On its own, however, this is another excellent reminder of how grossly underappreciated you are as a musician. You make some fantastic stuff, SirQ. Hopefully, more people will notice that before the end of this contest.

Good luck to you, by the way.

[Dj Xyanyde - Dunk Hut]

I went looking through the portal in hopes of hearing some proper representation for Duck Hunt, and, man, what a wonderful surprise this find is! Beautiful stuff, Xyan.

Hey, not that I'm expecting a response at this point, but are you the same guy who did Faxanadude and Misplaced Forest? I bought both of those on iTunes several years ago and I still enjoy listening to them regularly. I was especially shocked to find someone actually showing love for Faxanadu. A decent game with an underappreciated soundtrack.
