I'm creating a hack, and calling it Imminent Death because I can think of nothing else.
I am going to use 100% custom GFX and 100% custom music (or music that I chose to port from music that I like). Since this thread will probably get closed if I don't show proof, I'll give you what I'm starting with.
A CUSTOM BACKGROUND. WOOOH!

That's what I'm started on. It's more of a wire frame guide right now. It's a city view from high above. The main character will start in the intro in a dream, where the air is water and he is high above the city. It will lead through some other random things, then to his bed in his home where the game starts.
I'm still thinking of more plot. I think I want to include "Super Saiyan" in this because I am very fond of DBZ. Perhaps I'll use it as a power up.
I'll keep updating when I get more things accomplished.

Well, I think the name is pretty cool, since it's something a bit different, and it sounds scary/dark.
The background... is, well, I can't say much since it's, all mspainty.
Good luck with this.

Here's a tileset I made that I'll clean up and use.
Rock/Cave Tileset

Interesting title and concept, to be honest the first word I thought when I saw that background was "weird". We'll see how it looks in the actual game.
Also, nice work on this tileset!

I'm really getting irritated with this. I don't even know how I'm gonna make windows here and line them up with perfect proportions. How do normal people go about this?

The name practically screams "Kaizo Hack". Then again, I have no idea what this hack is about so who am I to judge?
Nice concept background though. If those are supposed to be skyscrapers, you'd start with the normal sized window near the top, and shrink them as you go down. It's what they taught me in art class anyways.

GeminiRage: No, the name is about plot, not difficulty. However I don't want to give that away quite yet. Why give away the ending. (No the main character doesn't die, not at the end necessarily.) Right now I'm grid tiling windows on the buildings. I'll clean it up then post an updated image.

this is an incredible hack but there is 2 things
1) judging by the background,
what are you walking on for the foreground, it seems you ae higher than the buildings?
2) I like how you're giving Mario a break for this,
So do you have a name for the new guy?
Anyways, that is really awesome stuff right there, I'm looking forward to more from this hack.

This background is ONLY intended for levels that are elevated, such as if I created an airplane, airship, cloud level, or whatnot. The first instance you will see is in the intro, when the character is floating in air which acts like water high above the city. It's because it's in the main character's dream.
By the way, someone should post after my post so I can update more since Edit doesn't work.

I'm still working on the background. Not sure what to do. It's not really looking like I had imagined. :C
Which one is better?

I prefer the first one, the second one would be too distracting

The second one looks very nice, but would there be enough room in the palette for that? Unless you plan on making the background 8bbp?
