Loaded with tile errors, and all you did was use predefined objects, and then make a path with the path NPC.

Get good try again.

10/10!!

Just kidding. I'd actually give you a 2/10 but meh, because im feeling nice i'll tell you some stuffs.

First off, lotsa tile errors. For example those flowers going through the road at the top, thats a big no no. Swamp should be using all 4 sides, dont just get a part of it and spam it. Get some detailing going, try not to use the path generator as your final "product", if a tile looks like it doesn't fit, dont use it!

You need to add something that makes the level look less "straight". Trees and ponds help do that sometimes. Try those out, and ask Wan if you need help ;p.

Because you're obviously using the incorrect tiles.

Keep practicing using different tiles to make different effects like when making houses, use different path tiles to make the path less straight, dont put tiles with green around it on sand tiles (ie flowers, swamp tiles, rocks, etc...), try not to use pre-defined objects, use the tiles and put things toghether instead, dont just copy and paste the same tile over and over again all in one area (as in swamp tiles).

If you keep working at it, you can become a good level maker

Waltz5 is an unknown quantity at this point
I suggest going through old threads, taking a look at the levels that are posted and have recieved good comments. Look at them, compare it to yours, and then try to fix your own level. I started to circle everything wrong, but the whole level was red.

Before you go and make all this stuff, I would try and polish your skills first. No offense but I wouldn't want to play anywhere that had levels of this quality. So if you refine your skills by working on this level and then making some more, then you can go ahead and make Alphatown.

Trust me, it takes more than just a week or a month to be a good leveler. You gotta develope a nice looking style that not only pleases other people, but pleases you. Just keep trying, dont be afraid to do something new.

Unless you have an amazing aesthetic sense for insides that in no way transfers to outsides, I doubt the quality would be notably better.

You're currently in need of a huge amount of practice with basic concepts of level making.
