Hello there....

Well first of all, I think you were aiming for a level that just like a forest or an outside level, not a town like most levels on here.

So with that in mind, you have put the path only at the moment. You need to do some other things around the side. I would suggest as your new to make yourself have as little as possible of grass. So try and do some water nice and wonky donky like the path (not straight) See Yellow Box

Okay next thing, some trees. Try some overlapping tiles, that helps make the trees look nice and together and fills the level neatly and nicely See Blue box

Okay with the level detail, it looks a bit spread out and repeative. First rule when level making with grass detail is Never right click detail, it looks boring as its too repeative! Look at mykels post for that example.

Next rule, is use as many tiles as you can, and look over the tile set for some other tiles you dont use much. Be careful with tiles like the mushrooms and little rocks, you cant walk over them, if you are going to use them, put them really close to trees so that people wont be blocked by them. see Red box
