--------------------
I'm making a new hack, (my second try to make a succesful hack, first got rejected) is going to be Lost levels was to SMB, a little bit "arcade-ish", no story, simple OW, more difficult than the original SMW but not being unfair.
I plan to make like 8 worlds consisted of 4 tematic levels (1 castle per world), making a total of 32 (already done = 7 12).
Here are some Videos:
Level 1-4
<object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ng9mYwuahw8?fs=1&hl=es_ES"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ng9mYwuahw8?fs=1&hl=es_ES" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>
Level 2-3
<object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/bgKOckQShOo?fs=1&hl=es_ES"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/bgKOckQShOo?fs=1&hl=es_ES" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>
PD: Sorry for my bad english

I think you should create a story for your hack, and the OW could have been a bit less "simple".
For the levels, they look really good. In the first area of the cave, the exanimated lava on the BG makes a "confusion" with the BG and the FG. The rest is pretty great.

As Dangus said, the OW needs some work, and the BG lava in the second video looks too much like it's hurtable. =/
Other then that, I suggest posting more screenshots and less videos.
That way you can show off more levels without having to spoil them ^-^

The overworld needs A LOT of work. At least add some scenery. BTW, can I help out with this project?

Dangus: i have fixed the BG of the level 2-3 making it darker, i'm just too lazy to make another video just for that (here you can see it).
I don't feel good creating a story, because i suck on writing in english, and i don't think people care about a story in a hack, if i would make a story, it would be only a pretext for the hack (eg: mario crashed into a island, go and explore).
Also when the levels are done, i'm planing to improve the OW, but i want something very basic, with short, straight paths, like NSMB.
Livin4Jesus: If you like to help, I would need help with maybe some bosses, i'm new to ASM and i want that the hack to have original content, or maybe if you want you can do a level (with vanilla feel, like the videos).

Lots of great games have had bare-bones plots used as an excuse to throw you straight into the action. See: Gradius, Mega Man, Kirby, etc.
Besides the animated lava in the background of 2-3 and the plain, flat OW, it looks great so far.

Wow.. everything looks really incredible, I love the palette and background of the first level, and the difficulty looks absolutely perfect for a follow-up of Super Mario World. Your level design is also some of the best I've ever seen, and I love the Chargin' Chuck boss . Great job, I'm looking forward to some new content :3.

I love the style of the Chargin' Chuck boss.
He's pretty well made and the arena looks cool too.
Nice work. : )

Hey triple post guys 
I have some screenies of the first level of world 4, which is gonna be a mountain world.

HDMA effects and custom "rocky tileset", do you think it looks fine?

A lots of pitching chucks live in the mountain, to make things more interesting.

Some cave with water pools and stuff

Pretty cool levels there. Concepts are ok. First screen has a brown pillar that's floating (cutoff) and the dirt of the brown ground could look a bit better. Did you draw it?

Thanks, and yeah, i drawn the rocky FG by myselt, the rocky edit from the castle tileset is from THY and the waterfalls are from SMB3.
Also the pilar has an stroke, so it's floating but really there is no cutoff.
The level involveds some gimmicks that i decided to not spoil but, can you give me some idea for a fitting music for this level?

Ah yes, I know some songs that could fit:
Bowsers Mountain
And this probably fits the most:
Spacial Spirits (You need an NSPC Patch for this)
Songs not by me ofcourse. Use SPC Player to play them. Hope it fits...

Spacial Spirits would fit perfectly, but i would feel bad to use this, because is like the main grass theme from MGU... so it's a little bit overrated.

It is? I thought you didn't want to use because ASMWCP used it . Anyway, you could go to the music section, press Control + F, and type "mountain" to get some songs.
