Don't quote me on this, but I think that if you make a transparent image in Photoshop, GIMP, or another graphics program, and then set that as your game menu background in the options.rpy file, that should work.

I'm not sure that will still show the background, characters, and dialogue, though.

EDIT: I tried it and that's exactly what you want. It'll at least show the background and characters on screen, but it will hide other layers (textbox, screens, buttons, etc.).
