Everything else is good here except the framerates and the fact that the layout is basically a center area with a ring surrounding it. This "ring effect" takes away much from the map because it feels too simple and symmetric. It's like a tark contrast between the center and the surrouding areas. Everything comes in basic shapes, basic flavour. Maybe castles are like that but that does not change the fact the gameplay suffers. However, the center area is done very well, and this somewhat makes up for it. If you are going to design more maps, remain the good aspects of the center area while scratching the ring parts. You are very talented!
