It just looks a little to plain.

It needs more scenery and shading.

Also the moon doesn't look that good behind the polys.
There are other worlds than these

It'd be nice if you included the Properties window from PolyWorks. (Hopefully you are using polyworks...)

Not a bad layout, i gove you props for not using the symmetry crutch. Maybe some trees would help the looks a bit.

there is a fair bit of scenery in this map, it just isnt visible due to the zooming and yes there is shading on just about every platform...

here is a piccy of the landscape zoomed in near the sideways sorta C looking thing... below the moon...



and unfortunatly for you i am not using Polyworks, i am using one of the older versions of a mapmaker...


i gove you props for not using the symmetry crutch.

to this, unfortunatly i dont understand it...

Well, both sides of the map are done differently (not duplicated then flipped horizontally).

Some may see that as a lazy approach, although some maps benefit from symmetrical layouts.

Not bad scenery, maybe bring the roof lower?

You could add another island, but remember to try and keep the level fair for both sides.

It could use more shading on the ground, and possibly some stretchings here and there around the texture.

Yeah, though it looks a bit plain, I like the grassy areas you've put here and there.

Lightsource reccomendation: Color the tops of the polys brightest, the inner areas medium, and the bottoms darkest. Here, you only made the bottom dark, but left out the rest.
