my grass:im not sure, i think it looks fine how about you?

my ground:pretty newbious

my trees:i wanted to start a bit small so how about the tress shading?

^try getting rid of the period at the end of the link before you assume it's broken.

The art is kinda mediocre, the trees are too similar and it just seems a bit small overall. You should add minigames if you want to attract people's attention.

Fire doesn't form in the way you drew it, you drew it forming from a dark colour into a lighter, and of course that's impossible for fire.
Fire is a source of light, so it will be formed from a very bright colour (the source of energy) into a darker one (smoke and the rest of the flames going up xD).

Since I'm not very good at explaining.
Basically the fire should be brighter in the middle/start of it's formation and become darker as it lifts up, as for the flames, they are sometimes brighter as well.
But I think the best thing would be is to use a reference image.

This doesn't seem bad to me. But I don't like is how the grass links to the ground. It doesn't look natural. And you were right when you said the house looked a bit crappy. Shade it to make it more realistic. I don't know why you made the roof look like that. It's like it's turned to jelly and the wind is blowing it away.
