For those who don’t know, this is the one.
Just putting this here for anyone who’s never played it. https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=2145
Or any other pico8 game for that matter
It’s on sale on Steam (the modern version is on Steam) right now: https://store.steampowered.com/app/504230/Celeste/
Oh yeah, that hits hard now that you’re making me actually think about it. It’s unsettling to think how close I was. I will forever carry those scars.
I’m glad you’re still with us friend <3
:3
… I wasn’t good enough at the game to see this, I think. Game hard.
Always upvote Celeste. That game hit hard.
I played it. What’s the context?
Creator is trans, character is trans, it’s meant to mean some people didn’t succeed in continuing to live after realising they’re trans and committed suicide
the game is broadly allegorical to mental health struggles but especially with transitioning.
I beat this game before I knew anything about anything, but I think I subconsciously knew the message, and overcoming all the challenges really sent me down the path I’m on now. I’ve been meaning to revisit it, but apparently I’m a mere fraction of the “gamer” I was then. It’s a tough game!
