A config.json* file will be generated the first time you run this mod. This file will look like this:
"alwaysInvincible": false,
"lives": 98,

"ammoLevel": 0,
"bulletDamage": 0,
"fireSpeedLevel": 5,
"runSpeedLevel": 2,

To enable always_invincible or spread_pistol(shoot 3 bullets at once) set it to true.
To disable always_invincible or spread_pistol(shoot 3 bullets at once) set it to false.
To enable the feature(s) you want, just set those values bigger than 0. (e.g. 5 or 90)
To disable the feature(s) you don't want, just set those features to 0.
waveTimer is the time per stage in seconds. By default I decreased the time from 80 to 60 seconds per stage.
To set your lives or coins to infinite set it to 100.
You could also set your lives to 1, then you will start with only 1 live for an insane mode.
