[@Windette]

I had so much fun writing for this video you have no idea

[@PKUmbra]

That last climb was insane. The constant buildup with story and countdown with the flags. Amazing!

[@TheFoxfiend]

Ya know, the 30 flags at the end has got to be one of the best small details added to a game. Those 30 flags give a countdown that encourages people onward in what would otherwise be a very intimidating section of the game. It gives onlookers something that keeps them at the edge of their seat urging the person they are watching onward as each one is it's own push of excitement. It breaks the otherwise arduous climb into manageable chunks that feel amazing to get past as you count each one off.

[@blueiscoping]

Congratulations on finally beating me. But let's not forget, the score is now 1 to 3. This time, I'll have more than 2 days to train. I'll have more than 2 days to ensure my victory. I'll have more than 2 days to become faster and faster. I'll have more than 2 days to review, to practice in the shadows. I'll have more than 2 days to train and then come back and watch as the score tips over in my favor. A rival is meant to equal well.. its rival. But as a Nemesis, I plan to uneven the odds.

What is incredible about this game is that no matter whether you're speed running or playing casually when you reach the end you feel like you have accomplished something incredible. Your feelings resonant with madalin every time. Truely one of the best games even

[@OrcaMorca]

This is such a windette video. And yet it is very different. The narration, the jokes and the editing is so much the wimdy style I am used to and love. But at the same time. New spices in ways to add memes and jokes. New green screen effect and a very funny sponsor segment. Always trying new things. Your videos may take a very long time. But that is always felt in the quality.

Blue's biggest fail for this speedrun was not doing search skip

[@Windette]

I was so surprised when I saw he hadn't done it!

[@zynstein]

Yea like he tried demo skip but no search?

[@finjacsr]

in reality, he never needed to go for search skip because he went for 5b but was so embarrassed about his 5b being bad so he overlayed a 5a run and spliced it together in a pre recorded run but it never mattered since he took so long on 5b that it was the exact same amount of time 5a took... or maybe im just overthinking this

[@Killgon]

Loving your "On crack" and "Celeste" videos, but this one takes it to the next level with its storytelling, energy and heart put into it. It feels innovative and refreshing without losing out on the style or identity that I know from your other videos and I'd love to see more of them in the future. Keep it up, Windy! Have a good one!

[@impossibleace6887]

Just wanted to thank you for the video Windy. I know I don't hop into your streams or discord, but I love catching what videos I can with your amazing humor. Blending an attitude of "who cares" with crazy actions that answer "I care". A video about self improvement in a game to have a good time metaphorically back handing and admiring a friend only to destroy them with all your hard work before turning around and cheering them on to the finish. I'm not going to tell your butt to keep going, that's a choice for you to make. Just know you have people like me willing to watch you because of your style and your massive personality. (If you laughed like a child for that, I'll yeet Zac at your face). Take care you crazy goon, and I can't wait to see what comes next when you're ready to share.

you can seriously feel the passion and fun RADIATING off of every single video the scripting/pacing, narration, editing, the SPONSOR SEGMENT?? everything is freakin gold. the pinnacle of "do I have to do this? no, but I will, and nOBODY CAN STOP ME" (also love the addition of the greenscreen, it started with "wait wait did he do that before" and then "doesn't matter it's PERFECT") there are so many little details added in that enhance the video that much more, and I can't even point them out cause there's TOO MANY (but know they are seen and greatly appreciated) I was grinning the whole time, never added a video to my playlist of "stuff that made me smile/laugh" so fast

Okay, so everywhere” “… and I got to pick. ME! THIS GUY!” And…. I decided to stop collecting quotes ‘cause I didn’t want to interrupt the watching of the video, lol. Also, I found AverageImposter a long time ago, and have managed to achieve a sub 54 time. Really great videos, and totally underrated. I was very surprised when I found out that my best time was better than both Wimdy and Blue’s times (at least at the start of the video. I haven’t watch it all yet), lol.

[@Amara87387]

Ok it’s time, I’m going on my music rant. So I absolutely LOVE Celeste, and it’s music is one of my favorite elements. In my mind, a good game ost uses music that sounds good, but a great one can tell a story. The prologue is a slowed down version of the main theme, leading you into the game, and Madeline to the mountain. When you get to the bridge, a set of rolling notes plays as the bridge collapses, pausing to add tension, only to resolve to a single note, almost like a held breath being released, but also a reaction of surprise and a lack of confidence. Then the city. Now iirc, Lena Raine has stated that the city theme isn’t actually the theme of the city, but the games theme. Like the song was used on the city level but it’s not exactly *for* the city. It introduced the main melody of the game. The next several levels have specific motifs for them. But they all convey the emotional state Madeline is in. Chapter 5 is another important one. When you enter the mirror, the music is now backwards, but on top of that, reversed whispering can be heard. If you reverse the audio again, you can hear Madeline’s inner thoughts, her anxiety and depression, hidden away in the mirror if you will. Then the game play takes a tonal shift in 6. You don’t run from Badeline, she runs from you. This is obviously symbolic for what the song is called “confronting myself.” Now my favorite bit, Chapter 7. It starts with the same rolling notes that ended the prologue, except they’re more full. There are more notes added, and other synth instruments filling out the music. On top of that, the rolling notes don’t build into tension to resolve to a single note, they strongly resolve to the root to repeat as the other instruments build up the rest of the rhythm, following Madeline’s newfound sense of self assurance and confidence. As she progresses back through the levels, the instruments change to match the theme of that area, but the hopeful melody continues. This is still the case in the chapter five segment, it’s just the chords instead. Then we get to 3000. The song restates itself with its own instruments, showing Madeline’s readiness to conquer the challenge set before her. In short, the summit reiterates the levels you have went through, but with an air of finality and confidence, and the music does the same. I love this soundtrack so much, it’s one of my favorites along with Mario Galaxy, outer wilds, hollow knight, and so many others. If you read all of this, thanks for sitting through my ramblings, I hope you had fun reading it. Have a good day!!

[@Windette]

[@TheOneWhoHasABadName]
