    I want to make a pixel game on Unity, now being trapped in art design. This is my ugly first scene。。

    How can I improve my design ability in a reliable way?

    1. Find some good reference material
    2. Recreate it from scratch, learning the tools
    3. Personalize it, learning to inject your own artistic direction
    4. Repeat as necessary to feel comfortable with your skills (many, many times)
    5. Make your own stuff :)

    Is there some trick about level design? For instance, degree of difficulty? Size of scene? Some overall effect?

    Naw. Pick something that interests you and, go at it. Expect to not finish it. Move on to another thing that also interests you. Keep moving. Your skills will catch up soon and then you'll start finishing things- just takes practice!
