But what exactly would happen if you beat the level, and got the triple moon that goes you back to the Odyssey... Would other levels be available to go to that you hadn't theoretically unlocked yet because the game thinks it you are flying from this level then you must have done the others? Would other paintings be unlocked enabling travel between worlds with less loading?

I guess I'll have to try it myself if I can figure out how the hell that jump works.

At the least couldn't you grab moons and flags and then when you got to the level legit warp to skip the vast majority of it, having skipped a smaller portion on your initial trip?

Levels are gated by moon quantity not by plot progress (that's why world peace% exists because you skip a lot of the boss battles in any%) so no, sadly.

Ah I thought it was one of those sneak peek portals because they never thought anyone could jump that far. You can get to mushroom kingdom before you officially go there, but in that case they put up an invisible wall.

I was wondering how Jump-Up Super Star was going to be used in this game, considering how it was the centerpiece of the promotion to the game.

That entire 2D section featuring the song had my face wide in childlike glee as it felt like a victory lap for the Mario series as a whole.

That's the problem. Crush 40 set the standard for butt rock way too high, and too butt.

To be fair I'm really bad and it took me four tries because the ground kept falling out from under me while going for the last pillar.

But I didn't mind because the music was so uplifting and inspirational I just wanted to listen to it more anyway.

I can’t play that video on my iPad but i remember the video enough I think? Incoming might make me sound like more of an idiot than usual:

You can do a ground dash and jump at the tail end of it to keep your momentum through the air. If you do it with the right timing, your Dash recharges just as you jump. You can do this from standing -> dash -> jump with some timing practice, or jump in the air, diagonal dash to the ground, jump. That is basically the only Celeste tech i can consistently get and ho boy is it fun.

Thanks. For the curious, I ended up finding this video which talks about this (and other similar techniques) in more detail.

That one specifically gets more speed than a normal hyper because of the moving block stacked on top.

Ok but do it while not stopping to enjoy the spectacle and instead jumping and trying to hit each pillar with as many fireballs as possible while you're running to the next one, you know, speedrunning


Go figure is talk about speedrunning that segment of the game in the speedrun thread
