This is definitely good for a first DDA. It's got lots of enemies, a solid variety of propulsion methods, and is of a decent length.
Try to avoid having useless enemies. The gauss turret, for example, didn't fire even once. Even though you had five rockets, they tended to merge paths and didn't have many close calls with the ninja. Concentrate more on really incorporating the enemies rather than having a lot of them.
Also, as LordofPeanuts mentioned, trap door chains are also to be avoided.

Great
for your first. 4. Next time try to keep the rockets from bunching up, also try not to use so many rows of trap doors. Having long lines of those is almost as bad as having launchpads. Other than that its really good, so keep at it.

if you do tiles last,...
they are difficult to insert without effecting enemies or the ninja

3.5
all it needed was close calls
for a DDA, you need to do tiles first (unless its KRA)
then enemies
THEN do propulsion and stuff, then you control how close it gets to the enemies and you can make N dodge them ^^

heh
I think I would give you 3.5 if this was just some dda but since it's your first and this good then I think you deserve at least 4. But i'm gonna give you 4.5 to encourage you ^^
I like the map :)

that was quite decent, variety of propulsion (+1), about 975 frames (+1), unfortunately, not as many enemies as most authors would like to see (-.5), also first (+1)...
starting at a base of 1 which i do for all maps, 3.5/5
congatulations, that is quite possibly the best first dda ive ever seen...
