This is honestly one of the best games I have played in a long time and I love it a whole lot.

Celeste pushes every mechanic as far as it possibly can, constantly finding new and unexpected uses and combinations, such that every screen feels like a fresh new challenge.

Almost every secret in the game rewards you with more gameplay, be it a one-screen platforming puzzle for a strawberry, or a harder, "B-Side" version of a world, which makes exploring feel so much more worth it.

The soundtrack is incredible, the visuals are beautiful and polished, and the story was unexpectedly great.

This game didn't need to do any of these things to be a fantastic game but it did them anyway and I'm so happy for it.
