GET SOME OPINIONS ON A FEW MAPS?

I've been making maps for a forest level and as I make progress I'm feeling like there's something....off.

I think a part of it is I've made things a bit too busy. I need to clean things up a bit and maybe widen the walk-able path in some maps. That said, as I play test the thing, it just feels a like they aren't working overall and I was wondering if I could get some outside opinions. I have attached a couple of pictures and embedded a video with a quick walkthrough of a few of the maps I've made.





I think the maps are great but I don't think the overlay should move. I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that particular overlay is supposed to simulate sunlight coming in through the breaks in the canopy of trees.
For a simple forest, they have a good shape. Reasonable variance in trees and flowers, but the map could have animals or trees trunks, fungus or other signs of life.
Good point on the overlay, I hadn't thought of that.

I think I know what's bothering me. I really hate all the empty space between a lot of the trees. I tried to fill it up with plants and such but it really distracts me when I play test it; almost to the point that I can focus on one thing at a time. I'm going to give a go at making it look a bit fuller and filled in.

I'm glad the shape works though. I had been worried about that as well.
Wow, that's impressive. A very nice Chronotrigger-esque forest jaunt.
