You could go for that Faxanadu look but for what it's worth I would consider giving more color to your player (maybe applying some parenting sprite techniques).

To be serious, it's a good work, the only thing to need changes imho is the caracter. Not its shape, but its colors. It give me a strange impression over the background. I fell like it needs something to be perfect.
I'm not sure what you mean. The character needs to be colored light in order to pop against the detailed backgrounds.
