Difficulty: 3

Rose Tinted Glasses is a short, story-driven romhack exploring Mario’s struggle with the reality of his world.

This hack contains 4 single section exits navigated by a level hub accessed from the overworld. Upon completing an exit, the game saves automatically, and the player will be progressed to the next exit directly. All exits are accessible from the level hub after they have been completed. A 5th exit concealed in the level hub will become available after beating all 4 exits.

The recommended version of this hack contains 2 story sections with swears. A “No Swears” copy of the hack is included. It is completely identical except the language in those story sections have been adjusted *
