LucidShadowDreamer's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Beast in the Sky]

OMG, this is brilliant!
It fits the artwork so well too.
Wonderful work here, man.
Favorited <3

Good luck!

Azhthar responds:

Wow! This was a quick review! Thanks a lot man!!

[{AIM} Ascend to Madness]

I seem to have forgotten to review this earlier, but of course this is really rad :O!!!

larrynachos responds:

thx bb

[FD - Tomorrow Will Be Better]

I have no idea why you didn't share these earlier either!
#EpicIsAnUnderstatement

This one is splendid as well :O
Love the return of that clock :D
Listening to this while taking a break from making a game. Sets a perfect mood for what I'm doing. For once, I'm not in my bed, but sitting at a desk, enveloped by darkness, determined to not procrastinate (too much). This is definitely giving me the energy that I need. Thanks!

ForgottenDawn responds:

In retrospective, I don't even know myself why I didn't share it earlier here, though I remember the circumstances that brought me to compose this piece. It was harsh times, I don't remember exactly what happened back then, but I remember being pretty low and I recall a friend of mine saying "tomorrow will be better". So that phrase kinda stuck with me and I conveyed it through music.
Glad to hear this track has energized you! You should talk to me about your game man, I'd love to hear your ideas.

[FD - Seconds Gone By]

I may be biased, as I really love piano compositions of this kind. But it's wonderful either way ^ ^
Very atmospheric, in the best of ways.

ForgottenDawn responds:

Thanks! Yeah, I don't really know why I haven't shared it here in the past couple years. I'll make sure to share another oldie.

[Hamulndurrtale]

Clearly the best collab there ever was or will be.

(P.S. I swear I commented something on this earlier, but somehow NG didn't let me D:)

johnfn responds:

UNTIL YOU ALSO COME TO THE SF AREA WHEN LUNACY ECHO DOES AND WE HAVE A CRAZY THREE WAY collab.

[Iηнυмαη Eяrør]

Ahahaha, what a horrifyingly sad concept! :'D
I'm really glad you decided to make something for today!
This is a really satisfying listen.

The fairly abrupt ending is symbolic too. Well done, mr. Logan <3
Good luck, and Happy Robot Day!! :3

larrynachos responds:

I wasn't planning on making anything today, but they let me off work early, so I ran home and made this.

For me, I don't think it's sad enough, but eh. It kind of gets the message across. What would a robot think if it was suddenly brought to life with human feelings? I would think it would be elated, but when the plug was pulled it didn't have enough time to really understand what was happening and react appropriately.

Happy Robot Day!

[Birth of an Antivirus]

I was worried you wouldn't make anything this year! Really gave me a scare D:
Luckily, you came through after all :D
And even if this was rushed, it sounds really awesome! I actually like the simplicity in many ways. It's satisfying to listen to, which is all I really require from a track :)

Happy Robot Day, and good luck :3

DESHIEL responds:

Happy robot day Dawng may you win ;)

[Gear City]

I come from the country of metal (well, one of them), and I fully approve this track. Amazing job! >:D

TSRBand responds:

Thanks for the review, glad it makes the cut! Finland rocks :D I'm a huge Children of Bodom fan they're definitely an inspiration, I'm always comparing my exports against songs from Are You Dead Yet to check they're the right volume lol

[The Assembly Lines [RobotDay2016]]

Oh wow, this is really cool! :O

It's perfectly balanced, and really interesting too!
I don't think you have reason to feel any sort of shame for making this, it's a very enjoyable listen
^ ^
I definitely wasn't let down. The contrast between all the effects, the percussion, and the more melodic aspects, like the piano, work quite well together!

Here's a small tip. You may want to change one of your tags to "robotday2016"
They'll likely find it anyway, as "rd" has been used previous years. But just in case, Tom said this in his post today:

"...just tag your entry "robotday2016" and we'll find it."

Good luck :3

Quarl responds:

Tag changed :)

Thanks for the kind words! I'm my biggest critic, don't read into my self loathing too much. It sets a horrible example for other people, I really need to figure out how to be an arrogant screw tool.

[Desert Overworld Part 2 - An Oasis with a Water Slide]

Aww yeah! I'd be very surprised if you somehow didn't make it in with this. It's multi-layered, has some great melodies and moods, and as usual stays very true to the chiptune and videogame style :D

It'd be interesting if you at some point happen to get johnfn as a judge. I have no idea if he'll be biased, or extra harsh on you because of his own style :'D

Either way, I look forward to seeing what else you have in store for us in the coming rounds ;)

Yahtzei responds:

Thank you so much, LSD! :D fingers crossed! ^^

By the way, I've been looking through some of your previous stuff, and your composition 'A Dance with a Shadow' is incredible. That style of solo piano is amazing and fits your sister's story perfectly. My girlfriend and I just sat and watched in awe last night at your YouTube video of you playing it.

Anyway, thanks again and best of luck to you in the competition and in general :)
