@@binarycat1237 Its advanced tech sure, but you litterally need it to complete chapter 8C and know it like the back of your head to even stand a chance in chapter 9 xD. The game was litterally made with speedrunning a design principle or something.
I'm just entering the community and I'm seeing all this amazing stuff that's required and I'm just hypering everywhere and barely getting under an hour(55:32 PB at the time of writing this)
To explain, TGH did a hyper dash to the left, then jumped right, Celeste for whatever reason allows you to change your direction on a dime with a jump, and maintain the dash momentum. Those moving blocks on ever move once you dash, so what happened was TGH got this momentum of the moving block and the reverse hyper dash, and flung himself across the room.
Even when watching this at 1/4 of the framerate this still looks like sped up gameplay x) This is just insane. Especially that bit at 13:00 just completely baffles me. It's also funny as hell that it is faster to complete the Mirror Temple's B-Side than going through the actual level.
I never like feeling rushed while playing video games, but I LOVE watching speed runs, and even when you oop, you're still doing something that is so completely incomprehensible and unobtainable to me, even when I put my mind to it. Mind blown on Celeste btw, what a wonderful game to SR!
It's so interesting to watch a speed run as someone who has attempted a speed run before, current best time is just barely sub 1 hour. You make all these precise strats look easy as shit, I can still hardly hit yeet or get my demodashes right, but you just breeze right through it. Mad respect.
Pretty incredible to see Problem is that the current best TAS is a whole 4 minutes ahead, so I'm not sure that's gonna be beaten anytime soon. Wish him lost of luck, though. I'm sure someday, we'll get there
Imagine watching this speedrun before getting the game and thinking “Oh then Celeste must be easy” then actually going to play it for yourself and realizing it’s a 10-20 hour game getting to the summit ALONE
i bought this game three days ago, finished this took me 10hrs/2100 deaths..I got to this through speedruns videos...I didnt know this game is extremely hard, Im working on platinum trophy ( no assist mode of course) and Im watching this speechless, it is unbelievable what human s brain can do...

Edit: SORRY wrong game.I'll start Celeste properly after I finish Axiom Verge which as you can tell by my comment is awesome. The little I played of Celeste really intrigued me and it had cool fluid movement to it, something I really enjoy. I can see me refering back to this video for tips.
Sub 27 will never happen. It's literally impossible. A lie, a myth, a farce propagated by the government to mislead the ignorant. Anyone who thinks it's possible is stupid and should feel ashamed, and can wallow in their own lack of intelligence. This is an irreversible fact of speedrunning and simply cannot be challenged. Go cry about it, nerds.
In a way i get kinda mad seeing these rooms and levels that cost me wel over 10 minutes being done in like 7 seconds but on the other hand it is so sick that the game lets you do this this game is sick in general one of the best platformers ever.
When Teej demodashes through the wall at 7:52, I'm wondering why the input display doesn't show a down input until after Madeline is already past the wall. It might just be me not understanding how they fully work, but I thought that demodashes were essentially a downward dash that you redirect to maintain the crouching hurtbox. Can someone explain what happened here? Amazing run by the way!
I'm confused on some certain techniques. Can someone explain? I have a basic understanding of speedrunning this game, timestamps are below 13:00 - how'd he get so fast off a tiny platform? 13:26 - what's the point of spamming dash downwards, i see this a lot, especially in TAS
Vyllan the platform thing is pushed all the way out when ever u dash so he dashed and jumped and even tho the platform barely moves it gives u the same amount of momentum every time at any distance Dashing downwards was just bc he had downtime before the block would move out of his way. Its pretty much t-bagging Sorry if any of that’s inaccurate. I literally just played the game for the first time today and looked up speedruns after taking 8 hours to beat it
Hold on. You're telling me getting the B-side and completing that is faster than just completing the normal level for temple? That's... pretty dope ngl!
@@InviZ."A demodash (named after its discoverer, DemoJameson) is performed by dashing down, then immediately (within 4 frames or 0.066 seconds, 0.068 seconds of in-game time) releasing the down key. This causes Madeline to dash horizontally while in a crouched state at the same time. Being crouched reduces the size of the player's hitbox, so this can be used to fit through gaps that cannot normally be traveled through. If one not only releases the down key but also inputs other directions, a demodash can be done upwards or diagonally up." - Celeste Wiki
