One of my favorite games of all time. I remember playing this game right after it launched and while I enjoyed it, I didn't think it would be something that stuck with me for years and years. About a year later, I came back and decided to start casually speedrunning the game. I was never all that serious about it, but I enjoyed watching my time get lower and lower for the runs I attempted. Then another year or two later, I picked up the game again and decided to try a complete playthrough. At this point, I hadn't even played The Core or any post-game content at all. It took me a bit, but I finally beat all the B-sides, C-sides, and The Farewell. It was a feeling unlike anything I had ever experienced in a game. I still come back once or twice a year and just do a quick playthrough because I love it so much. As someone who never replays games, Celeste is truly something special to me.
