I really really love this game and actually requested a LP in the requests thread. So thanks for doing that.

TheOneAndOnlyT posted:I can't remember if it's in the game files or some interview with Matt Makes Games, but something refers to the Part of You as "Badeline" and I haven't been able to call her anything else since. It's a fun little name. But on the other hand, wouldn't that sort of imply that the main character is mad?

TooMuchAbstraction posted:On top of being a great game, Celeste's "voice acting" is the best I've ever heard in this style. It's rare that a game's able to convey emotion so effectively with wurbles. It's really great, when Maddie starts pouting. It fits the picture so well. In fact, it's all done so well, that I don't think that actual voice acting would have been an improvement.

Whybird posted:It's not completely zero physical sense. A narrower shape has less air resistance than a wide one, so will fall faster. It wouldn't happen to the extent we see in the game of course -- it'd probably be completely negligible -- but the reason it feels intuitive is that it is consistent with our understanding of how things fall. There you have it. If you're ever falling a great distance and feel like you're not going fast enough, stretch yourself. Important life lessons in this game.

That's a great mechanics tutorial! Also, Oshiro is kind of a mess. You can vaguely understands why he acts the way he does, but his attitude is a bit tiring. Unfortunately that's true for many people with mental imbalances. Actually nah, I don't want to backseat-LP. If you prefer this, it's cool. cant cook creole bream fucked around with this message at 21:57 on Apr 2, 2018 |

Lazy Bear posted:The mountain is a very important character. She's the final boss we're trying to defeat. It's totally a girl mountain, right? Of course Madeline ist also trying to fight herself, which might bei even harder.

Well, obviously you can't generalize panic attacks, since some stuff will just work better on some people than others. But in general that would be a good tactic. It has all the important components. Closing your eyes, focusing on something calm and peaceful and forcing yourself to calm your breath could be helpful. But then again, there might be people who would suddenly imagine that feather to fling around wildly and uncontrollable, which would make the situation somewhat worse.

NinetySevenA posted:Does the game have an actual scoring system or are the 1000s when you pick up a strawberry just a design choice? It's actually slightly different. The first strawberry gives you 1000 points and the second one 2000. And there's actually a reason for that. It's nothing mayor, but it's silly and fun, so I wont spoil it.

To be fair to the old woman, Madeleine hasn't introduced herself either. And when she first met Theo, you have to re-initiate the conversation to make her tell him her name. Between that and insulting Badeleine's appearance the first chance she gets, she's kinda rude to strangers.

sunken fleet posted:I love how she's having a conversation with something called A Part of You and her opener is "well, I think it's time we go our separate ways and never see each other again...". I mean, how did she see that conversation ending? Getting tossed down a hill is a positively gentle response. Plus, she's all excited and giddy about that. From the other side of the conversation, it sounds like she's gleefully announcing abandoning and possibly downright killing part of her. Even if you believe it, "You're everything that's holding me back and I have to let go of you." are kinda harsh words. This is also why I like this story so much. Many lesser writers would just play that straight: The hero has some kind of mental flaw, or insecurity. Some kind of magic manifests that stuff into an antagonist. The hero destroys it with physical violence and everything is fixed forever. cant cook creole bream fucked around with this message at 13:06 on Apr 13, 2018 |

TooMuchAbstraction posted:As far as I can tell, it's just someone saying "Hey-yeah!" over and over again. It's providing reinforcement that hey, you're doing the right thing! Keep doing that! I love how the chanting distorts in the later part of the fight, when it gets more frantic and rocks start moving around.

I mean, Mount Celeste is only 2041 meters high with a prominence of 589 meters. I'm reasonably sure that would be doable for an average person. That pesky mountain magic complicates things.

Tenebrais posted:It's worth noting we're not even half way through the game at this point. The story is finished, but we've got another chapter to go, then all the B-sides, and even that's not the end of it. Madeline got her big breakthrough that makes a satisfying story, but if you as a player keep putting in the effort, she's going to keep climbing that mountain. It's almost as if the struggle doesn't just stop once you hit your big goal.

Red Mike posted:I assume this is because it's meant to be an end-game stage, but it felt like a challenge post-end-game stage to me. If I were playing, I'm fairly sure I would've stopped after a little bit of trying at this point (whereas I didn't feel this way about the rest of the stages). It's clearly a form of post-game. We've already seen the credits after all.

You take the front side then the backside. Afterwards you take the inside.

It has been really fun and I am happy that someone showed this game off. It's pretty much my favorite platformer of the last decade.

There was a cool AMA by the creators in Reddit at some point. It might be worth linking if you can dig it up.
