There's nothing wrong with having no direction and messing around creating randomness but this is bound to happen when there's no concept driving your decisions.
I recommend you try to solidify a concept beforehand next time, with some quick exploratory sketches on good ol' paper with a good ol' pencil. Know what you're doing before you do.
Crit on yer sprite though - I can say that I love the active pose you gave him, and yes it's rather odd, looks like Samus's boyfriend maybe playing volleyball at the beach, not wanting to get sand in his boots of course.
