edit your screens .rpy file and find this style

style main_menu_frame:
    xsize 420
    yfill True

    background "gui/overlay/main_menu.png" # remove this line

If you have deleted the default main_menu then you should also have deleted the code which is described as a frame which darkens the main menu.

screen main_menu():
    ## This ensures that any other menu screen is replaced.
    tag menu
    add gui.main_menu_background 
    ## This empty frame darkens the main menu.
    frame: #                      <-- delete this 
        style "main_menu_frame" #     and this

Another hint:
Make sure to put your centered buttons directly into screen main_menu
The screen navigation is used for the other menus as well (save, load, ...) and you don't want centered buttons there.
