    Finally get to play the game that has a handheld feel, on an actual handheld. If you love Celeste, you'll love this.

    God this game was hard... I can't say which parts either otherwise I may spoil the game... my hand still hurts from holding z,x,c. Story was really good though! Celeste's character development is actually really great and they do provide a great perspective on mental health and how to battle your inner demons. As a pianist myself, the piano soundtrack was really good although for the most part it was background music. The music atmosphere definitely creates a form of suspense especially when you draw to the end of every chapter. I don't even consider myself a hardcore gamer and in the whole game there were probably 2 or 3 places where I was like "yeah I"m not gonna beat this" but managed ok after maybe 50-100 tries, who knows. LOVE indie games in general and although this one doesn't paint as nice of a memory as Bastion from Supergiant Games, it's definitely up there... definitely more enjoyable than void first-person shooting AAA games.

    This game goes for $90 to $120 on websites due to scalpers. I can care less if its limited run or whatever, its a legit game sporting a reasonable price.Game is fun, plays like super meat boy but with a better story & music. Challenging indeed but fun.Enjoy!

    one of the best platformers that I have ever played. It's so cool how the story and theme mesh with the idea of trying a level again and again.

    Thankfully this got rereleased to combat the scalping. It’s a challenging platformer, be warned. Controllers/joy cons’ spike risk go up 400% if you’re the type to rage at games. Totally haven’t done that myself.
