Celeste TAS: All D-sides (Dny%) in

(This is outdated; check out the new one at • Celeste TAS: All old D... )
The D-sides are a custom map pack for Celeste (think Kaizo maps). They are a lot more difficult than regular Celeste, and some sections are very precise.
This is a TAS of all of them. It's taken about 6 months to prepare, and huge thanks to Fishmcmuffins and Euniverse for helping with various levels/strats. I'm glad that it's finally out, and hope it is enjoyable.
Find the TAS input at github.com/dahlukeh/celeste_tas
The custom map is part of Monika's D-side pack: gamebanana.com/maps/202524

[@mozvi1436]

The lava and ice walls kill you if the hitboxes of madeline and the wall overlay. If you are in range of the wall without being in the wall, it simply acts as if it was a normal wall... However, as a human it's pretty hard to control your movement enough to not get one pixel off where you want to be. It's possible but not very reliable enough. Also there are not a ton of places, chapters etc. where you can you this mechanic (apart from core and reflection D-sides)
