Simple and Satisfying!	Neon Streetlight	2019-07-16	Version 1.0
Ever since I was a kid, I've wanted the option to play as Luigi, even though it's just a simple color change. I actually used to play the 2-player mode and kill off Mario just to play as Luigi. With this simple hack, I can finally just play as Luigi without any hassle. Thanks for making this! It works great, and I appreciate that even the name is changed on the HUD. Great simple hack.
