One of the best games I've played to date. First off, the visuals and music are so polished and beautiful. I just want every screen of this game as my background (the backgrounds are incredibly detailed and help make the game feel very polished) and I could listen to this music for hours. I mean, each level has it's own death transition! That should give you a taste of how much love the developers put into this game. The dialogue is incredibly charming and tells a story about complicated feelings so elegantly and with so much honesty (I mean, you can feel it through the dialogue). The gameplay is incredibly fluid and its difficulty curve is perfect (However, I am a platformer afficiando, so take that with a grain of salt). I mean, seriously. Just jumping around and dashing in an empty space feels amazing, and there are so many collectibles to find using these amazing controls! You can choose to play on assist mode, or complete the game 100% and have an outstanding time no matter what. This game simply gets everything right: from skippable cutscenes to counters that help see what you missed in a level. The B-sides are just as fun as the main story and there's secrets hiding in every corner. No secret makes you want to use a walkthrough; they are well-hidden, but also well telegraphed with fun little mini-challenges in them. There are so many cool, inventive mechanics to come across while traversing through in this game... and the level design... Oh, the level design! It's absolutely perfect. This game is incredible and a great start if you want to start playing hardcore platformers.… Expand

   It's been a while since I had the chance to play a genuinely challenging platformer that requires you to think. With similar gameplay to OriIt's been a while since I had the chance to play a genuinely challenging platformer that requires you to think. With similar gameplay to Ori and the Blind Forest, the story and setting in this game are more lighthearted in nature and the complex level designs keep you on the edge of your seat throughout the entire journey.
   
   It is evident that Celeste was designed not to be fancy or overly complex. It's just a platformer, and a fun one at that. Every level you beat feels satisfying, and even more so as the levels get harder and harder. It's been a long time since my hands legitimately sweated from gaming, and I find that downright incredible.
   
   I will warn that this game might not be suitable for everyone, since many levels need split-second decision making. If you're not a fast-paced gamer, you may want to preview some gameplay first before buying. According to Steam, 50% of gamers couldn't get past halfway. Luckily, there is an "Assist Mode" available which essentially provides cheats to make the game easier to play, so if you do experience trouble, feel free to use them.
   
   Be sure to find the minigame "PICO-8" that is hidden inside Celeste. It is a whole different version of Celeste that provides more stages for you to play which are even harder than the main game. The unlockable B-Sides and C-Sides of the chapters also provide completely different levels and a huge jump in difficulty and challenge.
   
   I had this game at 10/10 for the longest time but eventually dropped it to a 9/10 because Chapter 7C was pure torture and virtually impossible to beat. I actually experienced carpal tunnel trying to grind that chapter. I can accept progressively harder levels, but when they turn sadistic, that's when I draw the line. Sure, the chapter is optional, but an imperfect game is an imperfect game. (This actually reminds me of Super Cloudbuilt and its secret developer levels, because they were impossibly hard and left me disappointed.)… Expand

   It had potential, but it is just plain repetetive boring. Chapter nine is just a slap in the face when you just want to complete this nightmare.
