um, the appeal of YI isnt so much the wonkyness.....as you seem to think from the scribbly lines, this is specially unlike YI because it has everything so broken up into little parts and the general shapes are not related to basic shapes (circles and cilinders most of the times in YI castles)

that is, if you mean the maps of YI. I think it's not like there isnt anything to comment here, I think there's much to be criticized in the general design and us pixelationers could use excercising that part of the brain.

you should prolly check out johnk's curriculum (http://johnkcurriculum.blogspot.com/) the post about composition...

It turns out that it's a while since I last played YI

what exactly is YI? I've been trying to find some information about it but all I get is basketball players. Might help so I know what style you are trying for.
