My early in development NSMB2 hack (Unamed as of now) is turning out to be a bigger project than I originally expected, and I am going to need some help. I originally planned for the hack to just have custom levels and tilesets, My ambitions quickly grew to include re-textured worlds, new backgrounds, maybe new music, etc. But there's a problem, I'm only good at making levels, and my attempts at trying world map edits and new backgrounds ended in the game looking like a 3 year old made all the textures in MSpaint. So after that, i thought that i would seek help with the project, so that's what I'm doing. Details below.
So, I'm looking for a few people to help me here's a list of people I need and what each job entails. Downloads for most of the requird programs are at the bottom.

Has Development started yet?
Yes, I got through the first world, but once plans for editing the worlds where put on the agenda, the levels where scraped, so new ones that match better can be created.
How Long will development take?
I don't know, expect the hack to be finished by Q1 2018 at the latest.
What if I want to help but i don't know what to do?
