Colorblind Terraria - Potions

Version 1.2 - 37 Potion Sprite Swaps

After recently playing with a colorblind friend, I realized Terraria is not a terribly colorblind friendly game. I recently uploaded a mod that corrects the colors of ore to be more easily identifiable (Colorblind Terraria - Ores), and now I've tackled the next biggest (arguably bigger) problem - POTIONS.

This Mod changes potion coloring and sprites to be more easily identifiable for those suffering from Color Vision Deficiency. It features 37 custom sprites for a number of potions that have similar coloring and shape to others. Some sprites have simply had their color balance shifted. The goal was largely not just to shift colors or apply a filter, but to make identifiable, appealing spites for both people with color blindness and those without.

The list of modified potion sprites include:
Healing, Mana, Greater Healing, Greater Mana, Super Healing, Super Mana, Lesser Restoration, Restoration, Heartreach, Lifeforce, Gills, Swiftness, Fishing, Battle, Teleportation, Recall, Mana Regeneration, Magic Power, Thorns, Crate, Night Owl, Dangersense, Rage, Warmth, Obsidian Skin, Invisibility, Wormhole, Gender Changing, Archery, Sonar, Water Walk, Gravitation, Spelunking, Luck, Greater Luck, Unholy Water, Blood Water.

Please see the screenshots with the color filter applied to see just how difficult it is for someone with R/G color blindness to differentiate potions. They're sorted roughly by shape and (apparent) color.

I love to receive feedback, please let me know if there are any I missed that you find yourself still mixing up. I'll try and correct anything I can to help others enjoy this amazing game.
