the biggest thing i can suggest really is not stick so much to de-saturated colors. have a little bit of saturation there, and also mes around with complimentary colors for the things you want to make pop out real well. your backgrounds and sprites look "alright" together but the backgrounds just kind of blend together into one layer, which is something you really want to avoid with desaturated colors. you even have problems with it on CBL's outfit, individual details don't stand out and he looks completely flat
