Nice map. You did a good job adding new gimics to each screen despite being limited to what the game already does. It's nice seeing games like this is the only level get some recognition outside of flash game communities.
Thank you ☺️ I had to revisit the original series for ideas (and also to figure out how to best bring the gimmick to Celeste), some of the rooms are directly inspired by the games, while some others are indeed unique to what Celeste has!
This is an insane feat of creativity, to be able to come up with this many unique variants of a single room just with the limited mechanics of Celeste! Awesome work! (Also amazing dialogue!)
this looks really fun and i love all the dialogue between madeline and theo edit it looks really fun besides room 19 and 20 23 just looks bothersome but not too bad aww that ending bit was wholesome
Thank you! I'm glad you liked it. ☺ Gotta be honest, that could be an idea for the future. I will just say, however, that there is a Farewell-inspired room somewhere in the level, but you'll have to prove yourself worthy first!
if you smuggle the jelly from room 26 over the barrier to room 30, and then get the heart boost, then there are like 20 more rooms, meant for the silver. At the end, theo says, "is that a silver strawberry you have there?"
"Madeline, come on. The Matrix is like. The most trans piece of mainstream media this side of Celeste. Written and directed by two trans sisters. How have you not seen it."
This is such a cool idea! Makes me think of This is the Only Level, which I'm assuming this map is referencing. The dialogue is cute too and fits perfectly with both Celeste's and This is the Only Level's humor. xD
Yes, that's exactly what I'm referencing! I reviewed all three games made by jmtb02 for inspiration, then came up with my own selection of variants adapted for Celeste's mechanics.
Imagine an actual "Anarchy" mod for Celeste which let's a hundred people play on the same map at the same time, and you could see how far each person is progressing.
(Spoilers) I could be wrong since I haven’t done it myself, but I believe the map is actually 2x as long but the second half can only be played if you have the silverberry (judging by the dialogue, I’m not skilled enough to do it) or if you use debug mode. The “first” ending rooms is actually just really long as well and leads to said extra rooms but without insane speed that probably isn’t realistic at all theres no way somebody could make the jump.
I could tell you whether your guess is correct, or not. Whichever you prefer :D But anyway, I hope it's not as feasible as it sounds in theory to get there without the berry :P cannot really complain if it is though.
I'm glad you liked it! It's a great satisfaction knowing that an already awesome game concept was transferred to a completely different one effectively!
naming the rooms! 1: This Is The Only Room 2: This Is The Breakable Room 3: This Is The Spiked Room 4: This Is The Forsaken Room 5: This Is The Spiky Room 6: This Is The Same Room 7: This Is The Bouncy Room 8: This Is This Is The Only The Only Room Room 9: This Is The- Hey, get back here! 10: This Is The Holdable Room 11: This Is The Dark Room 12: This Is The Secret Room 13: This Is The Dangerous Room 14: This Is The.. actually wait, what gimmick is this? 15: This Is The Seeker Room 16: This Is The Laser Room 17: This Is The Bubble Room 18: This Is The Confusing Room 19: This Is The Cycles Room 20: This Is The Windy Room 21: This Is The Solved Room, thank you Theo :D 22: This Is The- oh god RUN 23: This Is The Feather Room 24: Only Room This Is The 25: This Is The [insert matrix reference here] Room 26: This Is The Jelly Room 27: *THIS IS THE ONLY ROOM* 28: ɯooɹ ʎluo ǝɥʇ sᴉ sᴉɥʇ 29: This Is The Final Room
aaand this is further tempting me to buy celeste on pc so i can start playing modded instead of being only able to play unmodded celeste... though i would probably hook up a remote to my pc so i can use the controls i am used to :)
@@Evil_Maddie I used to play the This Is The Only Level games so that was my primary inspiration. But I also have played That Level Again and obviously the core gameplay/concept is the same! So yeah, I believe TITOR as a map can be seen as a nod to both :D
Close enough! I was actually drawing my reference from the This Is The Only Level games by jmtb02 :) but That Level Again is based on the exact same concept.
There is no room(but this one.) Wonder if there is something hidden beyond the heart though. Seems you might be able to wavedash and jump off it for some serious distance. Hearts are bouncy~
That name rings a bell in my head. I must have played it and then forgot about it. Well, I know what I'll be doing then! EDIT: okay, checked it out. I see the similarity now! Thanks for bringing that up!
You mean First Steps by Lena Raine? That would be correct, I did my own version of it. This particular rendition also uses another track of Celeste's OST as guidance. Can anybody guess which is it?
Buah! Me encantaria jugarlo en mi consola. Me encantó el detalle de "estoy ayudando" de Theo haciendo referencia a una frase que dice en el juego original.
I downloaded the entire Collab just to play this level, but I can't figure out how to get "beyond" iykwim, is the silver strawberry mandatory to get the rest?
It's called "First Steps... Again" and it's a little remix I made of the original by Lena Raine. It's available on my RUclips channel and also on my SoundCloud! ruclips.net/video/1BZ1CuANDY8/видео.html
Okay lol this might be a running joke in the community but when I looked into the comment section I couldn't believe how many people love the dialogs. I'd gladly erase Theo from this map because his dialogs are annoying and don't give anything but artificially extend playthrough time. Would be really cool to get all the references on your own without his help. If I'm just woooooshed then no sorry, I don't know since when Theo became a hate object but I'd gladly join the club. The map itself is really really cool, I've got nothing bad from the design, gameplay, innovation, anarchy and soundtrack standpoints.
Fair enough of a point 🙈 that was actually an interesting one to read. The map itself is playable without Theo's hints - except perhaps Room 25 with its coloured switches puzzle which would be 100% trial and error without that little movie reference. I also imagine some other rooms would be more obscure if you had absolutely no hints, but then again the original This Is The Only Level series didn't hold your hand at all and had you guess the solutions... but the again (pt.2) this is not TITOL 👀 Thanks for your input! If you don't mind me asking I have a question: is it dialogs in the map that you'd rather do away with, or just Theo (and Theo's)?
@@NoeleVeerod thanks for asking! Well, I'm in general against useless dialogs in mods. If there's a story then sure, even a joke is fine (for example in one of the dadbod mega collabs there was a map where Madeline and Badeline were bored so they decided to "play a game" and that was cool haha). I don't like the constant "Hmm this looks weird/I'm scared/ help me" nonsense. I mean yeah so what, just let me play already. I don't like monologues too, for example "Hey this is a comfy place yay" types of messages. These tend to be hidden and very short, but for some reason I'd like those messages to be absent, because I know and I see they are comfy, let me sit there without your comments about it. But I'm just so against Theo honestly haha. I dislike him as a character and every time I see him mid-playthrough I wanna insta skip the dialog. I imagine him being an Instagram douchebag that posts crappy pranks and gets ton of views. Heck, he even nitpicks Madeline in this mod for not watching the matrix, like get a life bro. I don't respect the sounds he makes while talking and I dislike to babysit him when he's in a crystal too. "This room looks impossible" bro just stfu. So to sum everything up, at the beginning/ending it's ok if there's some kind of a story (even involving Theo if used correctly, and the story can be the simplest ever), maybe a couple of necessary messages/funny jokes during the map. But if it's just the most generic banter talk that doesn't affect nothing but my time then I'll pass.
This is Celeste, an indie platform game about climbing a mountain (and facing your inner self). Controls are simple and easy to get used to, but the gameplay itself quickly becomes challenging. The game on PC also boasts an active, sprawling modding community - and this map is one of many examples of that! The game is available for 20€, but it often goes on sale (and, very likely, it will go on sale soon again at the Winter Sale) so if you're interested you can grab it for very cheap.
I want a refund, you can go left at the start and get to ANOTHER ROOM! And the anarchy collab itself, THE ENTIRE THING IS IN A CASTLE! What kind of false advertising is this? How can I play something like this? I want my $0 back
Badeline's "Did you miss me?" brought a swell of joy to my heart
We stan a good and cute Baddy cameo! 😈
really fun concept, and a well-executed transfer to the mechanics and gameplay of Celeste!
Thank you, I'm glad you appreciated it!

That's fantastic to hear ☺️

(Also amazing dialogue!)
Thank you! I'm glad you liked it ☺
7:52 i only just realised they were feathers and not floating bananas
The ancient Celeste dilemma - are those feathers or bananas?
Scientists have yet to reach an agreement on the subject.
5:12 I liked the part where Badeline said "It's laser time" and proceeded to laser all over the place
LOL I enjoyed so much writing Badeline's bits of dialogue
@@NoeleVeerod lel
0:21
can we talk about how perfectly theo's voice synced up with the music? like homie was spittin bars right there
Holy shit you're right, I never noticed this until you brought that up!
The dialogue is really charming, I love how Badeline is just happy to be there
Pretty good concept, I like it !
Thank you, I'm glad you liked it :D
We Stan a jmtb02 reference
Yessssss 🐘🐘🐘🐘
Never played celeste but this is really impressive! Please keep doing what you do, these videos are cool!
Awww thank you! 😁
I hope you give it a try, it's good fun!
This might be a good map, but what's so impressive about it?
I just realised that Madeline uses one hand to keep the crown on her head when it's windy. Nice touch.
I know, right? Cav did a great job with the mod, it's just *perfect*
Celeste and this is the only level’s certainly not a crossover i would have expected to work this well
oh, the custom dialoge MAKES this
I'm glad you liked it! ☺
this looks really fun and i love all the dialogue between madeline and theo
edit it looks really fun besides room 19 and 20
23 just looks bothersome but not too bad
aww that ending bit was wholesome
Thank you! Glad you liked it ☺️
1:54 b o u n c e
really liked the concept of this map, props!
Thank you! ☺
Ahh the memories of that blue elephant.
Those were the days ☺ jmtb02 definitely is a great guy and made nice little games!
Makes me think of that level again
Nostalgia from "that level again" a really old mobile game that has the same concept. Really nice map, probably going to try it out for myself
That Level Again has a few extra concepts that I'd like to explore eventually if I ever make TITOR 2. I played that series too, a real mindbender!
I was expecting something like Farewell's Final Room, but d'aww, this is adorable
Thank you! I'm glad you liked it. ☺
Gotta be honest, that could be an idea for the future. I will just say, however, that there is a Farewell-inspired room somewhere in the level, but you'll have to prove yourself worthy first!
if you smuggle the jelly from room 26 over the barrier to room 30, and then get the heart boost, then there are like 20 more rooms, meant for the silver. At the end, theo says, "is that a silver strawberry you have there?"
That's interesting, thanks for finding out! Unfortunately that wasn't intended 😥 (the smuggle, I mean... the dialogue totally is)
3:37 in a dream, perhaps
Perhaps 😝
"Madeline, come on. The Matrix is like. The most trans piece of mainstream media this side of Celeste. Written and directed by two trans sisters. How have you not seen it."
In her defense, though, she doesn't even have a smartphone.
inb4 storby lives in the woods
I loved the game "this level again" when I played it, love to see someone made a homage to it in celeste
I see you can go further in the last room, if u check, there's no wall at the end
Yeah, you can... but you need something first 😉
This is such a cool idea! Makes me think of This is the Only Level, which I'm assuming this map is referencing. The dialogue is cute too and fits perfectly with both Celeste's and This is the Only Level's humor. xD
Yes, that's exactly what I'm referencing! I reviewed all three games made by jmtb02 for inspiration, then came up with my own selection of variants adapted for Celeste's mechanics.
@@NoeleVeerod Nice! Loved those games.
Kinda reminds me of That Level Again, it's basically the same logic: one room, but it changes every time you complete it
Incredible idea!
Yo never seen a map use the concept of this is the only level
It’s that level again, AGAIN!
YES!
Came for the Madeline/Theo interactions, stayed for the Badeline moments
Imagine an actual "Anarchy" mod for Celeste which let's a hundred people play on the same map at the same time, and you could see how far each person is progressing.
Something similar does exist, it's an unofficial multiplayer mod called CelesteNet. I'm not entirely sure whether it still works or not though!
Thank you, John Cooney, for the original This is the Only Level
Praise be! 🐘
awesome map!!! the music is great too!
Thank you!! I'm glad you liked it! 😁
Seems like one of the better maps out there.
Thank you! ☺
The fact Madeline never watched the matrix is appalling
I know, right???
Concept is super cool and the execution is on point + I love the convos, really well done (:
Thank you! I'm glad you liked it 😊
reminds me of "That Level Again" by Iamtagir (underrated french mobile developer, a lot of his android games play like old flash games)
this just shows how good the building blocks of celeste is that you can make this many puzles with just one room layout
Yeah, and with little to no modding/scripting at all :D
(Spoilers)
I could be wrong since I haven’t done it myself, but I believe the map is actually 2x as long but the second half can only be played if you have the silverberry (judging by the dialogue, I’m not skilled enough to do it) or if you use debug mode.

Reminds me of the game "This level again"
I had to look it up because the name rung a bell but I couldn't remember anything... and yeah, definitely works too for comparison!
seems heavily inspired by the "that level again" series of games

Yes, that's exactly the inspiration for this map!

"BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR"

Nope! It's a reference, yes, but to something else within Celeste!
