Added the chains:

Still don't know how would i go about moving it so that you can see the sides.

Hello. I'm struggling to make a jungle tileset's background to work:

And here is the tileset itself:

If i make the tiles too green, then the wines and flowers become indistinguishable from the background, but now it looks really wonky. Any tips?

In game it looks like this:

I can't really make it looks thicker, because of the perspective of the game.
And i can't make it trapezoid, cause the player needs to be able to grab the top of it.
I'll think about some chain mechanisms, to put in the background, maybe.

Thank you all for the advice and critique 

Ok, i made the sword be held up in the idle animation and added 2 frames to make it more fluid. Also added transition animation between run and idle.

How does it look now?
