Hi Bluemaan,
welcome to the forums.
Although it does feature lot of great ideas, and a 'wild style look' I had a couple of problems with your mansion:
There are just too many rooms that are unaligned, (meaning floors have different heights), so Jack has many unneccessary deaths,
or paths that lead into nowhere... and other stuff like that.
Apart from that there are a couple of little drawing errors, with tiles missing, or put in the wrong layer.
It seems like you created that mansion very fast.
One tip would be: go through your mansion, as if you're new to it, explore every possible way.... and definitely check the floor heights of adjacent rooms. And test-play it a lot!
I'm also not very sure if I like the idea of doors that are
However, that last point is probably down to personal taste.
But there is already a lot of nice stuff in that masnion of yours.
Kepp designing !!

floating in space(i.e. not anchored to a floor and a ceiling), as that always leaves a strange 'rest' in the air, that is normally there, to indicate an opened door. It looks good on the ground, but in the air??
