Sounds like you mostly just slapped a bunch of reverb on it and maybe eq'd it a little bit, but it doesn't pop, since the background music kind of sags into the morass that the echo creates. Did you play around with the individual tracks, or are you just working with a final mix and trying to get it to sound better? The former would help you accomplish the latter.
In terms of mastering, this sounds like it could use a harmonic exciter, some widening, and, for my taste, some tape saturation.
It's definitely a start, though.
I should add that there's almost no mastering that you can effectively do to anything less than 16 bit audio, due to the lack of headroom, so I hope you've got a .wav file that you're working with, or something equivalent (as opposed to an mp3).
