Ok so spikes are just an illusion. Got it

[@scrambledmc3772]

I did not know there was tech in PICO-8

[@jonahhagin9059]

Seeing you fly across these boards with no deaths makes me jealous

[@BrunoR.VilasBoas]

corner kicks in pico 8 is absolutely crazy

[@NagKai_G]

Well, this is not the type of Celeste content i expected KZbin to recommend, but I'm glad it did because PICO-8 tech is really cool to watch

[@FluttershyLeet]

Absolutely insane man. I remember how i struggled in this in compare to default celeste, it was a feeling what dash directions was registered worse. Very impressive play

[@justsomeperson1282]

The reason is that there aren't freeze frames or dash redirecting so you have to be holding the direction you want to be dashing as you press dash, which is not the case in the main (paid) game.

[@sariaw1]

YOO TECH IN PICO-8???? you're insane

[@Smoldragoncat]

The spikes stopped working, huh? Good thing speedrunners love that!

[@NDach2024]

I don't know anything about this game but this looks very hard congrats 👍

[@BossAwesomeSauce]

I don't know if people realize how ridiculously impressive this is gg!!

[@Sulfuric__Acid]

Spikes are merely a suggestion ._. Huge GGs!

[@IRules2244]

Man, I remember when I tried gemskip. That shit is hard.

[@МихаилБойко-у6ы]

Ultimate challlenge in Celeste Classic!!!!

[@Patashu]

The fact that this is possible is hilarious to me

[@nomnom2298]

Bro this person is basically just flexing how they are at the game at this point.

Good work man So sick

Hey, I do high-level Celeste Classic speedruns over at twitch.tv/merl_7, please follow me there, I want to try to get affiliate this year.

[@cake_frfr]

i was gonna type an angry comment about how you cant use invincibility and call it tech but i forgot something really important. this is the celeste community and we are all insane in a good way

[@Newwer_]

The spikes are from your imagination

[@thatoneguy9582]

all balloons twice seems like such a specific category where did that _come from_

[@merl_]

The category has existed on speedrun.com since 2018

[@chriscuplife0255]

Retro gadgets

[@turkeylegs1343]

Why is the hum skip abt time almost faster than my gs run 😭😭😭

[@tygical]

that is so cool

[@vividescence]

What version of Celeste Classic are you using for this run? - Edit: ah sorry, i was wondering what cart reader you were using - i can see that it is Splore

[@FireyDeath4]

Are there really 18 berries? I got all of them and only had 16

[@merl_]

you did not get all of them then

[@wrenpastel]

gg!

[@Purple_Prog]

what's the technique that allow you to wall jump on spikes ?

[@merl_]

You can walljump on walls even if you're 2 pixels away from them. This is an intended feature that was added to make walljumps more lenient. There's a bug in the code that makes left facing spike hitboxes 2 pixels wide instead of 3. This means that if you get right up next to them, you can walljump without dying.

@@merl_ insane gameplay to watch for the unfamiliar

[@poorlydrawncactus1178]

@@merl_wow so its almost like lava from celeste not classic

[@idkjfuff]

The title sound like you wanted to be first in something

[@merl_]

Yeah, it's a pretty specific category lol. I'm not actually the only person to play this category though, Tangent tried a run of this a while ago and couldn't beat 3000, and bacon_good managed to get a deathless run just a few days after I did.

[@redicalcrash]

Question: Why do you hit all balloons two times before completing the screen?

[@kyokajiro1808]

it's in the description it combines the categories pico 8, deathless, arb, orbless, and the one where you get each balloon exactly twice

[@NullWes10]

Im so lost 😭😭

[@leonhard6327]

Now do it 3 times |-')
