Well, Straight edge is fine but flat? Add some depth, shades. It will make it look a lot better. And i would add more depth to the grass instead of just dots. It makes it look like straight top down view on a single piece of grass then a tilted top down.

Heh, nothing wrong with the flat look. Just shading is the main part to flat. You can draw a flat image but if shading is correct it will make that image POP and still be a flat old image. The castle image looks fine but shading looks a bit pillowed with random dots here and there. Could be better but you cant learn unless you try different ways.
