Beating Celeste, Without the Grab Button?! : Part 2

Part 2: Celeste Grabless challenge
Unedited video: • Beating Celeste, Witho...
I've not played Celeste in over a year now. So I thought I'd jump back into it, but with a little twist. It's grabless, the grab button has been disabled so I cannot hold onto walls, climb up and down walls and many other complications. Find out how I'll do with no grab
I go for 100% as much as possible, so will go for as many strawberries, cassettes and hearts as I can

wow this is awesome, it’s so satisfying when you pull off some particularly tricky movement

This was insane to watch, it's hard to believe that it was all possible. Dear god the tech, I can feel the carpal tunnel

[@Enlightenment0172]

I did a Celeste run with that variant.
Found a room in Chapter 4 that needed 360 dashing, and another right at the start of Chapter 5's red half.
Currently stuck in the last lazer room of Chapter 6.

[@Enlightenment0172]

Holy shit you can do the room I talked about in chapter 5
damn

[@dovakingbling]

Yeah, some are extraordinarily difficult. Which is why I couldn't complete them all, despite them all being theoretically possible. I play on keyboard, so 360 dashing wouldn't have helped me either.
Good luck on chapter 7, it's a doozy

[@madlad255]

I made a video about this a little while ago; it's great to see other people trying this challenge too!
That room at the end of 2500 M is a definite pain, I'm honestly impressed that you managed to do it at 0.4x speed. 😅

[@dovakingbling]

The challenge was a lot of fun. But a lot of the rooms were much harder than I thought they'd be. I thought I was just doing a quick couple hour challenge. Not spending a couple hours on a single room 😅

[@madlad255]

@@dovakingbling Yeah, I had the same feeling when starting out. Figuring out how to do the rooms is a fun challenge in its own right, but executing them can be a nightmare sometimes.
And for some reason I've now decided to go for 100%.

[@Bwooke]

holy

[@tonarinoyamato1251]

Yet another amazing video! Looking forward to future videos

[@Zicrus]

4:04 This room should be possible without the grab keybind if you do the weird tech where you activate the block through the spikes on top of it.

[@dovakingbling]

Yeah, the video I saw used the tech with activating the blocks without touching the spikes. But it just looked janky and not fun to try and pull off. Using the build in grabless grab made the room much more enjoyable for me

[@Zicrus]

17:38 Maybe an up diagonal dash into the corner followed by an rcb (reverse corner boost)?

[@dovakingbling]

I did try this but it seemed like too much distance to cover without going down too low and dying. However it still could be doable

[@Fad_kerbboi]

I feel like I saw this challenge before

[@dovakingbling]

Many people have done the challenge before. I just wanted to try it out myself for some fun

[@Fad_kerbboi]

@@dovakingbling ok

[@tonarinoyamato1251]

26:19 Yeah that was pretty cool, like are you just discovering new tech as you progress? Tbh I have never seen that doublejump before. A cornerkick, yes. A doublejump looking like one continuous jump? No, lol.

[@dovakingbling]

The way I usually try and solve things is I try the basic tech that I know and slowly try more and more ridiculous ideas until I find something that works. Sometimes, the ridiculous stuff works, and i learn new tech myself. But if I just can't think of anything, I do look it up to see if it is possible

[@theslayer789]

What is that move at 11:56

[@dovakingbling]

The move I used to get over that spike was a very well timed neutral, you need to time it just right so you neutral at the highest point of the wall so you can get over the spike

[@theslayer789]

[@dimakapyctin7757]

Когда третья часть,?

[@dovakingbling]

Will most likely not be one, since some of the rooms are already a bit much for my current celeste level

[@typorium9272]

We should def play together

[@dovakingbling]

I'm more of a single-player kind of person personally. I only really play anything multiplayer if it's with a close friend. Thanks for the offer though

[@typorium9272]
