I really like the look of the houses in JoelMacool's Shot

)-( Marchland Malady )-( I am still getting used to your tileset, but it is for sure interesting. How about making the top of the walls a brighter color like the grey on the corner pillars?

Jambu: I have no idea what the black things are, I assume enemies that are perfectly fine like that, just wondering. Also, I like the dark screen a lot, but the purple stuff next to your door looks really bad, besides being unlucky with how it "aligns perspective-wise" (sry, not a native speaker, it is not something to really bother about in classic anyway), the shadow makes no sense at all. I would remove the shadow, maybe add a border on the sides and a circle on top like with the pillars.

Joelmacool: I like the screen, it looks reall nice, I agree on the houses looking great. I would try making the castle walls a different color than the ground to look if that might look better and the purple triggers me a bit.

Twilight Knight: I see the wooden floor of the tent as a wooden wall with the barrel floating in front of it, I realize it is the floor but my brain says No. I would try to just go without the wood and use the sand in there as well. I would also try if it looks better if the floor wood is darker or to make the back/insidewall of the tent the darker shade completely instead of just close to the ground.

I do struggle with liking the tileset, but I have to say I like the landscape in this one a lot.

I will look into that, thank you for the feedback. Now you've said it it can't be unseen. I'd like to keep the wooden floors, but perhaps some adjustments, such as getting rid of the hard borders, will help making it look like a floor.

After hearing feedback from you and others about the castle walls blending too much with the ground, I decided to change it up! I also decided to break up the path a bit more, since it looked a little dull before (and too uniform for my liking). The new screen is below, but it still features the purple bird in the centre since I'm trying to go for the ALBW design for the fast travel system.

Here's the how the screen looks now:
