Celeste Verdict

by djmathman, Feb 27, 2018, 3:14 AM

I finished it (all A, B, and C sides as well as collecting all normal strawberries) a few days ago.

After 35 hours and almost 10,000 deaths, my verdict is that it's really really good and you guys should definitely try it. :) Definitely one of the hardest games I've played in some time, but the way it manages to intertwine its core mechanic (the dash) with its story is something usually not explored in a platformer, and combined with how sharp the controls feel I can't recommend it enough.

Also AIME season starts next week; will there be more of my problems for you all to "enjoy"? (oops I know the answer to this but I also don't know which AIME will be given on which day so there will be surprises for me as well!)

Why would it matter that you put problems on the AIME (why can't you say) because you're not revealing anything about the problems?

Because if I say that there is a problem of mine on the AIME and there ends up not being one on the AIME I, for instance, then I've revealed something about the AIME II (so then some people might try to figure out which problem is mine and do some sort of metagaming; I don't know how this would work, but people have been creative before) ~dj

:omighty: I managed to clear the A side on (much) more than 17 hours and around 6.5k deaths and around only 60-ish strawberry :(

  • Do you have a link to your main blog that you started after graduating from high school, I couldn't find it. @dj I met you IRL at Awesome Math summer Program several years ago.
