Game Description:
Dr. Mario is a Tetris type puzzle game. Mario is dressed like a doctor and tosses colored pills on top of the heads of the viruses which are your enemies. The goal is to match the colors of the pills with the colors of the virus. When three pieces of the same colored pill touches an enemy virus he will be defeated. The number of viruses you have to defeat increases as you advance in levels. There are also three speed levels (low, medium, and high) which you can beat the game on. The speed at which Dr. Mario tosses pills is dictated by the level you choose. This is a simple yet addictive game, which can be enjoyed by gamers of all ages.
Hack Description:
Dr. Mario Turbo primarily aims to make vs. play faster paced and less affected by stun locking garbage. The main feature is that all clear and drop time is cut in half, allowing both players to return to control much sooner after receiving garbage.

All features are implemented for the single player game as well.

Full Feature List:
* Double drop time speed for both settling pills after clear and 2p garbage. Clear animation time is also twice as fast.
* Hard Drops. Hit up to immediately place a pill where it lands directly below it's current position.
* Close approximation of full SNES capsule sequence RNG. No more long droughts or runs, and more doubles
* In 2p, chained 2-combos will no longer always drop garbage in the same place.
