Game #1 I'm playing as black. Any feedback with analysis is appreciated
Research on Radioactive Toys

I was expecting something entirely different from the title. Anyways:
7. 0-0 - ... c5 seems like a good try, as is ... e5, although your dark squared bishop ends up hemmed in by the e pawn in some variations. You want to prevent white from being able to play d4.
8... Nc6 - ... c5 is playable.
9... Bg4 - ... e5 is probably best, for the same reason why ... c5 should've been played in the last two moves: control of the d4 square.
10... Na5 - White can play 11. Qa4 with a double attack on your knight and on your bishop. You'd probably have to exchange your bishop for white's f3 knight at that point. Best would have been ... b6 or ... Rb8.
11... Be6 - I actually prefer Be6 over Bd7. Yes, it blocks your e pawn, but it gains a tempo by attacking the a2 pawn and also leaves the d file open for the queen.
12... Qd7 - ... c5 is always a good choice.
17... b6 - ... Bxc3 is available.
19... Bh6 - After ... Bxb2 Rxb2 f6 Nf3 Qxh3, you win a pawn.
20... Qg4 - You're right. After ... Bxg5 hxg5 a6 Rxb6 Qc7, black is up the exchange.
22... Nd8 - This move allows white to play a5, shattering your queenside structure.
30... Rf7 - ... Qxa4 wins a pawn.
32... Qd4 - ... Nd4 and ... f5 are perfectly good moves. Don't see why you'd have to exchange queens.
40... g5 - ... Nc2 wins the exchange. You've still got a losing position, though.
41... exd4 - Doesn't really matter which pawn you take with, white still wins easily due to his material advantage.

Any feedback with analysis appreciated!!
Game #3 Alekhine defence, two pawns attack
Game #4 Queen's pawn game. Quick and tricky game, unfortunately full of blunders
Game #5 English opening
Game #6, turns to be sth like queen's indian setup with e4 played by white
Game #7, Alekhine's defence
Thanks TheGreatOogieBoogie for your approach!
Here comes Game #8 in which I'd like discuss an opening
Game #9
Game #10
Game #11, 960 chess
What went wrong for black? First of all, he had changed the opening line into unfavorable one - the play was lacking dynamism and he fell behind in development. When there appeared possibility of equalizing the position black rejected crucial move of ...f6, and instead made a couple of moves with his queen that led him nowhere (Qd8-Qc7-Qb8-Qa7). There was no pressure on white's position and black has been staying cramped all the time, therefore his position was getting worse and worse.
Game in progress, so by now I post just first phase of the game. I'm playing black and I've made some mistakes in the opening, but somehow (though white is slightly better) it doesn't look that scary for black
#12
Though I have won, I think I must have done many mistakes or inaccuracies in this game. Any analysis appreciated!
On #12:
I think after 5. cxd5, exd5 is better (at least much easier to play) as black have a very good structure and the position should be already equal. With 5. ..Nxd5?! the problem in your game is that after 6. ..Qxe7 7.e4, 7. ..Nf6? is just bad because after that white just has a big center and a lot of space (0.6 for white) .
7. ..Nxc3 is better (0.1 for white) but I would not like that as black as that just looks like a not very good Grunfeld, especially with no dark square bishop. White should have an easier game and I would definitely play white.
In yoru game white played the terrible 12. Re1?. 12. Rc1! makes much more sense and gain a tempo on your queen. White has better development and will push e5 with f4 sometime in the future, cramping your pieces. Black is not lost but will just be defending a lot.
