Also

Using only pointed tiles gives it a theme too; basically, just don't mix pointy and round too often

I disagree with the first tip

Using only rounded tiles gives the tileset a theme, which is good. I agree with the rest of the tips though.

Try not to make maps using only one type of tiles (4&8 especially) They may make the map fast, but also very predictable because they have to be joint together with blocks.
Try not to clump together enemies like with the mines and the lasers. A single well placed enemy can be much harder than many badly placed ones.
The best arenas in this were the gauss ones, because they combined enemies together well.
