Keep up the work, you're improving with every level you make as shwon in the second house you posted! Start working with images in your level and NPC's to give it a really nice effect. A light effect would look nice too!

That falls into graphics art. (basically you'd need to make a new version of pics1.png and change the colors of the tiles in photoshop). Here's an example of how to achieve the same color effect by editing the tileset.


You hit the nail on the head there! I've always said this to people whom I've tought in the past, however; none have actually taken the advice and haven't implemented any of their own work into their levels.
