They're a bit bright, and a bit too plain.

You could use some of the current water tiles to make the centre (darkest area) not so plain. It isn't "too" bright but making it a bit darker won't be a bad idea. It sure would make an awesome narrow river/stream though XD

Yes its to bright
Donald those water tiles would be nice for a man-made canal or something, but otherwise the transition from shallow to deeper is to straight. To make it more natural you should make a few tiles maybe for the transition line so you can make it more messy heh.

still is a bit too bright, and you're making it look even more plain by only using straight lines (A ray of an angle still is a type of a line).

Other than being to bright like everyone else is saying, I think it looks really neat (the tileset, not the level :P).

AH! MY EYES! PLEASE: Add darker colors, make it a bit more interesting...instead of just a color fill with shallower outlines, and do better

Too 2k2.... but since you didn't want to hear that.....

The color transition from the middle color to the color next to it is too abrupt. Fade it more gradually. The colors should also get much much darker as you go inward, to give the illusion of depth (currently there's really no depth to it).

I agree that there are too many straight lines. Work on texturing and varying the colors so it doesn't look like streaks, like a rainbow through a blue filter. Go for a nice wavy effect, make it look like there are ripples in the water. If you do that, you'll get rid of the lines AND make it unique from 2k2.

You've got a good start, it just needs some editing.

I suppose it looks okay, but like everyone else said, it's still too bright. Aylad gave you some pretty good advice, which I think you should try a bit harder to follow because as of now the tiles are just too boring.

[thinks]to the make the tiles animated, you would have to have each frame for movement in the tileset. Thats what they did for flowers.[/thinks]
