The 1/24/1996 build of Super Mario 64 is a near finished build of the game. This build seems to have a strong tie with Luigi, as the most recent experience with the build features Luigi as an unlockable character.

L is Real 2401 relation
The strong ties with Luigi is not the only importance. The date of the build, 1/24, may also be written as 24/01 (in Spanish speaking countries), which may relate to the L is Real 2401 plaque seen in the courtyard.

Experiences with the build
One of the most recent experiences of the build says that upon entering the courtyard, the start statue and plaque are not there, and upon looking down, Luigi will be shown in the water, seemingly dead. The game will then cut to black, with a level that has the Bob-Omb Battlefield theme, a black background and floor, a pipe to the left, a door to the right, and a sign reading something along the lines of "Unlock Luigi on the left, rest on the right." upon entering the pipe, the game will reboot, and Luigi will be shown on the title screen (as the image edit depicts), with blood running down from his eyes. This bloody-eyed Luigi is referred to as "Undead Luigi" or "restless Luigi".

Video footage
Footage of the build is yet to be recorded, but the creator of the image edit (who is also the person who had the experience involving Luigi,) has been requested to record video footage, and they have agreed to release footage soon.
