O.P., I suggest finding ways to create more 'diagonal lines' in your maptile design. The designs you have all suggest vertical and horizontal textures.

Gloss over these screens I worked on:

Even the floor tiles, though horizontal, are drawn in a way that creates diagonal 'lines' when tiled.

This one makes it even harder to discern the effects of tiling:

Not bad, but I think your color palette is pretty drab, I'd consider editing the master palette or making some color changes. You could have more interesting colors.

Also, I second(third?) that the sand needs to be fixed, but is a nice touch.

The character's eyes are not a good color, too pure aqua blue, if you want blue glowing eyes, that's totally cool, but don't use colors from MSPaint's default palette.
