I think it looks good. But why is water coming from the house?
well it looks quite good and everything dosent need an explanation.

The swamps are put in a good place for my opinion

The grass tiles, they look like its to much
in some way

And the level looks a bit empty. Add a tree or two, tree stump and
bushes

That's my big problem with it.
And yes, as the others stated, try using a different array of detailing tiles to the grass.
Also, I don't like how you used those castle tiles with the water on the house.

General Review : Not that original, I've seen levels like that before, and unfortunatley, it has its flaws, but the idea itself was quite blossoming.

Positive Remarks : One thing quite nice is how you placed the platforms, it makes it look as if the level is seen from a set angle, atleast at some parts. I also like some parts of the house, it has originality , but the water ruins every thing, you should have place it's source somewhere else.

Negative Remarks : First off, let's start with the landscape. At the top of the map, the envirement is quite oddly placed. For example, in the upper right corner of the level, there are lots of swamp tiles, indicating a heavy grow, but then, all of a sudden, it harshly gets cut off by sand. Also, the house, as stated above has flaws, mostly because of the water. Another thing that springed to mind is the tileerrors, especially the cliffs above the water, it really should be fixed.

Overall Rating : 5/10

Spark910 has a spectacular aura about
Overall you had a great Idea here and it looks not too bad.

House:
Thats quit good, original, interesting, fits well with the level and is nice how it goes into a waterfall down the bottom well done.

Cliffs:
The clifs are great not mamny tile errors or straight parts, although a few errors nearer the bottom of the level in the water fall.

Dirt-Path:
Thats great, doesnt look path generator type. Looks as if its done by hand which give it a nice feel to the level.

Swamp:
About that swamp at the bottom, if you are going to put flowers in it, It would be better to leave a gap around the flower and not surround it in swamp else it doesn't look that nice. Also the swamp just stops where the shadow is, maybe get rid of the shadow or leave a gap between the swamp and shadow of grass so it finished nice instead of just a line!

Grass Detail:
The detail outside the house door is brilliant, nice and full. But the rest of the level is a bit thin with detail. Try and use maybe some cut back swamp, bushes, stumps etc.. See Attachment I dont really like the raised grass things but thats just me. I think if you are going to use them at all make sure there is alot of detail around it. My attachment shows some detail that can look good but isnt used much by really good level makers, but If you start of with maybe this you can develop it into a better personal style using alot more tiles.

Sparks Rating: 5.5/10

Its good very good, but the grass detail let you down, but read all of the comments and maybe post an updated version =)

bah...i don't see anything wrong with this level besides some of the tile errors. The main thing you should fix is the cliffs above the water other then that no tile errors that are very noticeable.
Nice job 7/10

Basically, you got too much grass detail and alot of tile errors, expecially on the cliff.
Your swamp needs work, you got things in places they shouldn't be.... That house is odd...
5/10
