I'm only going to comment on the bottom one as I really don't care much for urban tilesets.
Red: Errors that must be fixed.
I.) Tile errors galore fix these and use the proper tree tiles to join them together. This is the most glaring issue of your entire level. Also the way your tree tops are connected they don't fit together properly and the tiles don't line up right which is part of your problem.
II.) Think three dimensional. Tree's go over houses never under. If you have to use a tree top image so that it over laps the houses
Blue: Suggestions that would improve the quality of your level.
I.) Using two different roof styles looks very ackward on this house. You have a flat roof on the first story and a roof that raises in elevation on the second story. You should make them both the same to give it a more natural look. The overall house design is decent.
II.) Using swamp tiles for the entire level looks very bad. I suggest removing most of it and at most adding a few clumps here and there. You might consider adding a few bushes to enhance the level in place of all the removed swamp tile. (Use both relatively sparingly)
III.) Your path lacks detail there are three types of sand tyles go back and mix in the third tile also add a few of the smaller rocks and larger rocks here and there. (Don't over do it.) The path is also very straight. I would suggest making it less linear similar to how you did the water edge. You can still keep the path relatively straight but have the edges not a straight line.
IV.) The water lacks detail I would suggest adding some more shallow water to the edges and some of teh shadow water detail that you have in the puddle added on it sparingly. The deeper water you should add some of the rippled wave tiles. (Sparingly)
V.) Using that same bar all the way across looks ackward for a porch. You should use them as posts and add something else in between them to give it a raised deck sitting on top of post look. Something like |-|-|-| versus how you have it now |||||. I would also redo the bar that is going north to south and find a tile that will make it look like one bar rather thana bunch of post heads going straight down.
Edit: Fix the errors and make improvements as suggested and this has the potential to be a very good level.
I can only assume where I put question marks are supposed to be windows. If they are you need to put the window image over them. In it's current form they look very ackward. |
