I can't judge Flash games/animation because I have no experience with using the technology. I'm a freshman going into Illustration, so I can just talk about figures, perspective and what not.
I can definitely tell where your influence comes from, but to be perfectly honest, anime isn't the best in the realm of anatomy and showing perspective in form.
You're consistant in your figures, with stylistic liberties in human forms; however, I feel like it's also hindering you. I say this because I was in the same situation before. Study so human reference, gain an in-depth understanding of the figure and then begin incorporating the 'style' afterwards. It's a pain and a chore, but it's so beneficial, I can't even say!
So I hope this feedback is helpful to you and what you're looking for. Keep on truckin'!

No problem! If you want any recommendations for tutorials or books, advice or what not. I'm on occasionally.

Just because you draw in an anime style doesn't mean it can't have good anatomy and perspective. Just because you have something with good anatomy and perspective doesn't mean it can't also be anime style, either.

Black Sparkles, you should try working in highlight and shadows to your art. It'll give it more depth and interest.

Oh no! I wasn't meaning that it's impossible to draw with good anatomy or perspective in an anime style!! I was merely stating that from my experience, having started with anime references only, (especially those that were not the best examples of anatomy, perspective and proportion) it was for my own good that I switched to live references and then incorporated that back into my preexisting style.
I'm sorry if I didn't make that clear.
