Marvelous!

But I wouldn't want to draw characters to fit the foreground...they need to be huuuge in size. :)

 reminds me of castlevania, although the style isnt all that similar. Please animate this <3

I can't help but imagine this as a animated parallax view...

I think . . . this looks pretty awesome 

 I used no tools, i draw with graphicsgale.

I don't know .. Graf2X shows me 77 colors. Did you use some tools, maybe on the moon? Looks blurred.
