Hmm, you don't really have tile errors, you just need to get away from prefended objects. I say that you look at other levels on the board, and try to make them, you will notice that you need to use the "Select Tile" option to get some of these other tiles.

Hehe, the good ol innocent first-time styled levels that aren't filtered by opinions.

I'd suggest connecting some trees, working on buildings, detailing, etc.

Leveling isn't something you learn in one day, you need to develop a style, develop an understanding of the tileset, and learn how to use the editor.

Good job for a first timer man. MUCH better then me when I started. Perhaps look at some other peoples levels and study them and try new stuff.

Good job.

My first levels were funny. I didn't know about predefined objects, so most of my objects were horribly put together, tile errors everywhere. I guess that was a good way to start learning though.

Haha I had exactly the same problem...My first level was an inside, and I didnt know about the filling option, so I put lots of black tiles together and copied them to fill the level with them xD

I done the same thing with the black tiles ;0

But this is like in version 1.39.

Your levels have a nice classic feel, reminds me of the good old days :D

He's right as well. These levels look pretty good for someone who is just starting out. Keep at it and try to experiment with tiles that aren't in the predefined tile list. Browse these forums and look at as many examples as you can, and explore playerworlds that are online as well. Try to take in as much as you can and it should help you to develop your own style.
