Been playing Celeste Classic on Pico-8 for a few months off and on. Kept getting stuck at 2300m and giving up. Even though I hate looking up walkthroughs or guides, I swallowed my pride and went online for a hint on Reddit then was able to get through 2300m. Feels good to finally beat it after all these months. I have to say though, 2300m was still the hardest of all the levels. Such a tricky level to get through right after obtaining the double jump! I might go through and get all the strawberries eventually, but for now I am going to take a breather. Definitely going to start playing through the PC version of Celeste now.
I found and beat it in the main Celeste campaign, it was pretty fun.
Once you get the hang of the controls, it really is a blast to play. I’m not typically one for speedruns or no death runs, but I just might replay it a few times in the future just to challenge myself. I’m fairly decent at platformers, so it’d be cool to see how far I can hone my skills. I’m playing Celeste Classic 2 which utilizes a grappling hook as the primary mechanic, and it’s giving me a run for my money too. All of this amped up platforming challenge is actually making me want to download a NES or SNES Super Mario Kaizo hack.
