I'd also concur that you should use the grass sparingly... just here and there like a "real" desert. I like the tree for the ambience (just my opinion), but can you walk thru those bushes? If not, I'd suggest to get rid of them, as that's an unneeded impediment to movement in that area. Maybe if you removed the grass there and just left the bushes it might not be so "busy" looking"

Are the stairs the one in the spawn? If so, I'm not particularly fond of the wall blocking the jump down to the lower floor... I'd say leave it open like the original. If not, I'm totally lost as to where those stairs are... ???

If anything, I'm partial to the don't add stuff just to add stuff everywhere... a little bit of entity additions here and there make for nice eye-candy. When there are lots of "things", it takes your eye away from the gameplay.

All that being said... nice work so far!!!
