Hey, one of the artists here. Thanks so much for your comment! We are really trying to get out of our comfort zone. We usually make pixel art for games, but this was a really fun experience. I wish we had more time to finish the art, at least to add some color, but I really like how it turned out. At least we had time to add the lighting and shadows! :D

You did a great job trying something new!
Maybe a suggestion: I really do believe it doesn't need more color. The more toned down style is really cool. What would however step it up a lot would be shading via normal maps and actual lighting. I don't know what engine you are using (if any) and I don't remember if there was a splash screen of one. But most mainstream engines should support nice 2d lighting with actual shadows and all.
This would look really cool!
