Games look unpolished, what should i do?

All my games have this issue, they always look unpolished and basic no matter what i try. Does anyone have any solutions or tips for me?

Example:

other font instead of standard
other text color than #000000
better, harmonious colors
less contrast between colors
texture on the background
the buttons are too large
maybe a better camera position to show less empty space

If you have made a game with just that simplicity, I should say, you are a cool. I have seen lots of people including myself strugle becuase wanting something cooler then just doing it (effects, animation, etc.). So seeing you do it instead of wanting more encourage me. Thank you.
