The only thing I'm sad about is that it's way too difficult for a casual player to experience. But I'm glad youtube exists for these cases. Fantastic work.
1. Hardcore players should have at least grandmaster lobby for themselves. 2. If you try I think you can beat this lobby. In like 300-500 hours of playing this and other mods. But you can.
I’m at like 300 ish hours rn and yeah that’s about how long it took for me to reach this difficulty alone. Mastering it is a whole other level, but if you really want to be up there, then you just have to climb through the difficulties one by one.
@@tim..indeedidk, I know a guy that made it here in 800 hours from just picking up the game. Still a stupidly high number but it’s possible if you’re willing to grind for it!
I know this is one perfect final level…. But flag 1, that alone gets an 11/10. The intro that leads to it, the drop that happens when you actually make it to flag 1, the absolute insanity in gameplay, combining 2 beat block sequences at the same time, the maze of death, and not to mention I have no idea how they synced the music exactly to the finishing blow! Once I git gud, I will have one great time with Grandmaster Heartside
@@quadratic9775ayooo, i have just finished the map yesterday and man, this ending… is one of my favorite stuff in my entire celeste modded playthrough, i actually cried when i reached the end ( i have like 1400 hours + sj hour count which is 310)
@@dry4smash946 the first time you see it, it's probably very scary, even if you know it is perfectly consistent they captured the feeling of "impossible challenge" very well with that introduction
@@dry4smash946 actually, i haven't completed gmhs (i'm stuck in GM lobby with low motivation to continue for the time being), just a casual viewer looking at godlike beings undergoing apotheosis the mappers did a very good job
This is why giving the players the ability to make their own levels is just asking for trouble. That was fucking amazing to watch. I could never touch that in my life.
Just today I finished Solar and now I am in front of the heart gate, this exact video is what made me so invested in reaching grandmaster 5 months ago and now I come back and I want to say: I am ready
This is an incredible work of art that I never could have imagined would be possible in this game, super huge congrats once again for completing this and putting in so much dedication and effort over the course of these past years!! Making Shatter the Pantheon for flag 1 was some of the most fun that I've had writing music in years and I'm so happy to see how well flag 1 (and the rest of the map as well!) work. Hopefully I can beat this someday!
I'm sorry but... WHAT EVEN IS THIS???? MY EYES FAIL TO REGISTER EVEN 50% OF THIS! And that polyrhythmic section at the end... OMGGGG This was beautiful
That final room and the ending has to be one of the coolest things I've ever seen in this game. The way the music syncs with the gameplay in the ending is one of my favorite musical moments in any game. The music, as well as everything in this map, is absolutely stellar, but flag 1 and the ending is definitely my favorite part!
i don’t know how i just noticed that the styleground changes each checkpoint like it starts at daytime, then goes to like sunset, then turns to the evening, then goes to nighttime, then has the sun rise again, but during the ivory nyoom part it starts raining, and by the final checkpoint it’s full on storming. that’s such a cool detail
Your work ethic is something I aspire to, but I think that might be too lofty of a goal for me xD. This level is the result of literally hundreds of hours of mapping and hundreds of hours of playtesting, and it paid off more than we could ever imagine.
the ending just about brought tears to my eyes. thank you so much for all the work you put into this! can't wait until i'm experienced enough to clear this heartside myself.
LETS FUCKING GOOOOO!!!! Massive GGs to you val, you went above and beyond by an indescribably large margin to make this level as great as possible, and you exceeded all expectations. Thank you for pouring your heart into this to make quite possibly the most impressive celeste level of all time. I wish you luck on your future endeavors after this.
the more I watch this, the more I appreciate this map. you start to understand and make sense of more aspects that were previously indescribable. flag 1 is easily the greatest part of the map. everything from the atmosphere, the music, the maze segment. you couldn't have possibly ended the final map in a better way. this is easily one of the greatest things to ever happen to celeste. i can't wait to get to this level of play so that I can experience this to its fullest extent.
flag 1 is genuinely the most creative mechanic i've ever seen in celeste. that and everything else completely blew me away, amazing job but... where's the Heartside Heartside where you race back through all the lobbies and get to see elements of every single map all interwoven with one another? /hj
How is that even possible? Those are crazy and so fast, and that final section with all the spike blocks, wow! Thank you for creating this so I could see what it's like!
HELL YEAH!!!! go val!!!! your hard work paid off like crazy, the entire thing is genuinely so fucking cool i may never beat it, but GOD it's a joy just to watch
Thank you for making the music contiguous valkyria. I'm attempting to clear Solar Express right now and it's incredible to me how perfectly flag 2 covers every trick SE throws at you in a single 35 second room. Holy shit does that look hard.. well fking done GMHS mappers.
I fell like a really under appreciated part of the level is the background and how it changes from day to dusk to night to dawn to raining at the last checkpoint, and also how at the end of flag 1 the sun goes up as you dash into the hearts
5 days ago this was beaten deathless yall... This was truly our Celeste Strawberry Jam Mod experience. And i loved every second of it Thank you everyone who contributed on this mod, and everyone who played this masterpiece
This is so sick. Idk if I'll ever get this far, but I will try lol. I spend a lot of time modding Pokemon, I kind of want to see what the Celeste scene is like
something I just now realized is that at the end of flag one, when you are going up the tower, each heart crystal is the same color as the ones from each of the lobbies which are the same color as the fruits they are based on. blueberry bay 14:43 raspberry roots 14:45 mango mesa 14:47 starfruit supernova 14:49 passionfruit pantheon 14:54 (the shards after breaking it is purple)
@@SSM24_ I knew about this already lmao. Ehs feels like it was made to be goldened but gmhs is like the most beautiful, “fuck you,” to those going for max% and it’s amazinf
I’m just saying. If watching a video of someone collecting the final heart is enough to make me cry, I can’t even imagine how it must feel for someone who’s put hundreds, probably thousands of hours into this lobby. Completing something of this standard is probably the biggest achievement that a gamer can have the pleasure of beating.
There are 2 insane challenges that I want to eventually beat. This and the pantheon of nightmares (modded hollow knight) this is definitely way harder though
I tried to beat this I completed everything else in Strawberry Jam with enthusiasm; I got to flag 7 and I ended up having a nervous breakdown... What a letdown. I was too weak for this
sorry for the late reply, but I disagree. Are you really going to let ONE room stop you from achieving this? You managed to beat everything else, and the very last level makes you throw in the towel? Nah. you got that. I believe in you. No matter how long, you got this, just have faith, and give it time!!
I feel too sad about inability to challenge this difficulty,even though I handled B/C/ some CC sides,I couldnt get past intermediate difficulty.And even after years I will be unable,its just insane😮
Oh dang I actually never thought about farewell being a dream. I was thinking about another way Madeline would die would be from making the strawberry pie technically since most of them are golden but it feels seriously hard to think that she eats the pie too
@@arcadeoriginal5273i know i am pretty late but, is madeline trying to kill everyone? If not then why did she bake a pie that is made out of golden lol

I was full on expecting some crazy beatblock section at the end but WHAT
I wholeheartedly believe that strawberry jam should be turned into a free DLC for vanilla
vanilla celeste is coded in a different language i believe
grintastic
"Oops forgot to record" that would be painful
The heart being called "Apotheosis" suggests Madeline literally becomes a god.
That looks humanly impossible...I just have no other words
No casoosted fuper ending ):
Amazing
muitooo brabo
Awesome ❤
holy shit the music.
This is it Madeline.
The best heartside the Celeste community has ever seen
7:52 nice sync btw
There are 2 insane challenges that I want to eventually beat. This and the pantheon of nightmares (modded hollow knight) this is definitely way harder though
As someone who found farewell (with moon berry) to be probably the hardest thing I’ve done in gaming this looks miserable
So fucking amazing
i hope the rest of strawberry jam can kinda build up to this so i can eventually be good enough lol
it does
Wait, your telling me this isn't TAS? Awesome job bro.

you are sick dude
