The scaling of the textures is a bit blurry in the browser, normally in a game engine you need to select nearest filtering to fix this ([something like this for Construct](https://www.construct.net/en/forum/construct-2/how-do-i-18/blurry-pixels-problem-111952)) - I'm no expert though, can be difficult to make web pixel graphics games look right!
BTW we fixed our crash on iOS browsers for our game thanks to your comment (but we've yet to add touch support, but will do as a post fix).
Also I think there's a setting in Construct 2 to render the sprites without interpolation (so they don't look so blurry). It's great for pixel art and I would recommend trying to use that for a better visual experience overall. Some tiles on the floor would also go a long way to help you know if you're actually moving or not once there are no walls on the screen.
