the tiles are well done in the middle, but at the start and in all of the "compartment" areas, they turn into an ugly mess. learning to get rid of this takes time and learning, so stick with it, and dont be afraid to "borrow" elements of other's maps, as long as you dont just blatantly rip them off.
the objects are also ugly, and dont flow well in areas. a pile of one ways for no reason is ugly, and shouldnt happen. if you want to do something with one ways, make them look good.
basically, all of my complaints are about flow and aesthetics, which are needed for good maps. find a style that works for your styles, and the same with gold and mine placement. everything else is a variable.
oh, also, dont have random doors for no reason unless they're arty, and try to use 4 tiles sparingly. your tiles and objects seem spammy and undirected, have a look at some great authors like spudzalot or astheoceansblue or yahoozy or shortshift. tell them i gave you a redirect if it'll make you less bashful when commenting.
you just need to find a style, and get out of the "noob map" zone, because looking at this i can tell you're new, just from how cirtain objects are placed, and what tiles you used in cirtain areas.
it takes time, but stick with it. also, i came here from a cerberus map, because i felt like some critique. you show more potential than a lot of other new authors out there, so try to do all the good stuff you have here, but incorporate some tricks you learn from other authors.
thats my.. $2.51 or so.
they just weren't executed well. The gausses were the best parts. 2.5
