A remarkable feat for being developed over such a short period of time. Entirely retains the flavour and tone of Celeste while weaving in all those trappins of a Nintendo 64 game.

However, I will say Celeste doesn't fully translate with success from 2D to 3D in the same way a Mario does, as some of the platforming in conjunction with the camera becomes too much of a hassle. But also, the fucking thing was made in two weeks and is free.

as a sick and twisted individual who enjoys janky, open-ended 3D platformers infinitely more than tight, immaculately designed 2D platformers, this fuckin' rules. got more dopamine dying over and over in one of the shitty mario sunshine references than i did from the entirety of the real (actually good) celeste. though it's actually pretty impressive it's as functional as it is considering developing 3D platformers is really fucking difficult, let alone making one in just a week. also i can't wait for madeline to be the third canonical trans lesbian in super smash bros

This "game" is the embodiment of corporate hell, its just a shitty choose your own adventure FMV game but with community decisions. But of course it has to have a battle pass, paid cosmetics, and premium currency. It has some of the worst voice acting and animation I've seen in a game, and its writing is horrid. This "game" is nothing more then a cheap cash grab.

Nemesis system is really cool! Can't wait for more games to use this! Any day now...

One of the rare Nintendo games that feels like a bootleg. It's strange to look back at a time when a franchise as codified and controlled as Mario could suddenly have an entry with left-field genre and aesthetic changes. Shame about the controls.

this is like Among Us if Among Us had proximity chat and engaging gameplay

A lame, buggy, and monotonous successor to a once-great franchise that's only really notable or memorable for being the only M-rated game in the series (which is interesting given its connection to Street Fighter) and for being one of the first games I remember where a character says the word "cunt."
