i love this game thanks for all your work 


One hundred and seventy seven and I'm not even halfway done. Thank you for forcing me to stay up until 4 am with your amazing game <3 (Not sarcastic I actually love it)



Finished Chapter 9 just recently and damn you guys, you brought me to tears.
I adore Madeline from the bottom of my heart and I am absolutely happy to experience such a wonderful game 
i finished chapter 9. I will never hear "C -> B -> D" again without thinking of the tears i shed playing this masterpiece of a game. I know you hear it alot but you've changed my life for the better. My mental health is the best it's been since 5th grade and that's saying something as I'm going to college soon! Thank you for your wonderful game and the incredible story it has to share.
Many thanks, Alphie

this was the best game i ever played and i just wanna play more so now i'm learning the speedrun route! ty all the devs for making such an amazing game ❤️
incredible experience of a game, and I'm so glad that i was able to play this masterpiece. I love the soundtrack this game has to offer, and the way the story pairs alongside it. it just works so well together. thank you so much for making this incredible game!
I recently got this game after months of wanting to play it. Despite all of the internet content on it I kept my run completely blind and just wow. I want to genuinely say thank you to the developers. I am non-binary and pansexual, because of this I have struggled with depression and anxiety, this game really helped me put things into perspective and the relation between me and the character brought me to tears multiple times throughout my run. I have a genuine love for this game, a beautiful soundtrack, an amazing story and characters so easy for me to connect with and relate to. I wish I would have bought this game sooner. Thank you devs for an amazing experience.
hi devs, i went through the game and very quickly learnt how much of a perfect game it was, then i do the b-sides and just when i think i’m done, c-sides and golden berries… I spent so much time trying to do 7-Cg and finally doing it was how 11 year old me felt after pulling a rare pokemon card. pure joy and excitement shot right through me, Granny’s heartfelt “take care of yourself, okay?” brought me to tears. Thank you everybody at EXOK Games for making all of this happen. you’re all amazing. :>
It's such a legendary game that I'm sad I bought it when it was on sale, I want to buy it 10 times over just to support the devs.
celeste

If you don't have a question and just want to say hi/thank you/any kind of appreciation for the devs (they deserve all of it), do it in here! Shower them with love in here.

hey devs! after spending over 2000 hours on this game, I'm absolutely positive that it is my favorite game of all time. thank you for making such a timeless masterpiece.

Soundtrack and story are amazing. Thank you for one of the best games I have ever played. I love how speedrunner friendly the game is. Once more: thank you.

I love the B sides and the artists on there
in love with a ghost's music helped me power through the B side and I was introduced to 2 mello from the mirror temple remix which is lovely

Hello!
Hi

thank you all for making such a lovely game
celeste is without a doubt my favorite indie game and i'm inspired by you all when trying to figure out how tf to make my own game lol














Love you devs! 

Hug party 





I just wanna say. I was truly impressed with the quality, the well-rounded gameplay, and the polished feel. Making a lil project with a friend makes me truly appreciate all the effort you obviously put into making this masterpiece! Thank you, sincerely.








Hello devs, Love the mechanics!

best game 

Celeste is my favorite game of all time and I cannot thank the devs enough! it's had a huge positive on my life as well as countless other lives. thank you all so much!
After recovering from nearly drowning in tears when initially playing through the main story, I was finally ready to return to this game to beat all the C sides, collect remaining strawberries (not golden) and beat Farewell. While it wasn't nearly as emotional to me as the main story up to the Summit, I still enjoyed the story, particularly Madeline's and Badeline interactions with each other. (Also it made me happy to see the pride flags in Madeline's room
)
This is a really special game to me and while I flip flopped between hating and loving the game designers guts during every screen, the apprecciation I have for this game and you people for making this game gives me a fuzzy and warm feeling inside my heart.
Thank you.







I played Celeste for the first time about a year ago and since then it’s become one of my favorite games of all time and it’s up there with Mario galaxy for my favorite platformer ever. I love nearly everything about this game, from the characters to the excellent level design. Also it’s great to have a trans protagonist that doesn’t feel forced.
To Maddy, Noel, Lena and everyone else who worked on this game, I just wanted to say thank you for this game. It’s brought me so much joy over the past year

hi devs you guys are awesome
have a
cuz i can’t find the hug emote




game damn good
Hey devs! Just wanted to show my thanks as celeste helped me see the worst parts of myself and i can now work on changing said things. 

Thanks for creating such an amazing game, it helped me have fun in some of my sad times.










Man I sure hope theres no devs reading this appreciation message of just how awesome they are 
mhm, itd sure suck if they knew that i was wishing them a great day with lots of happiness
Celeste fucking slaps the devs popped off.
It also taught me to have a more optimistic mindset so when I get close to beating something I just tell myself “I know I can do this”
Very goog.



I've only played a few hours of celeste
but holy shit I love it so much
it will go on my list of favorite games forever





thanks for the amazing game, i’ve got the 100% and played it for way over 100 hours and it’s such a special game i love it so much 





Best platformer 13/10



guess I'm snail. Have a
anyway!



After getting all 175 regular strawberries and then realizing that “oh god, the C-Sides are a thing too,” and going through the entire story and realizing that Madeline scarily reminds me of myself quite a lot, I can safely say this is one of the greatest games I’ve played in a long time. Thanks to the well thought out and (when it comes to how the characters interact) realistic story, the engaging and easy to learn gameplay, and the difficulty that’s almost as bad as trying to learn Assembly, I’ve had a lot of fun with this game.
And yes I did just about cry a couple times.
And I apologize if this message was a bit all over the place but POINT IS
cool game, 20/10
There are c-sides?


gotta love when funny strawberry game makes you question your entire identity
Yep
Yeah


true


Thank you all for all the wonderful messages. 



cant think of anything long or cool so have a maddyhug


Just wanted to hop in here and say thank you for this game. The gameplay is amazing, the story is beautiful, the music is perfect, and I love this game so much. This quickly became my favorite game of all time and I have you guys to thank for it. 
Same here 
<3
Thank you for creating an amazing game about collecting strawberries in a mountain while your own bad side is trying to stop you. 10/10, now I am obsessed with strawberries because of this game. 
frogeline

Nice game 👍
FF




i love this game
its amazing, colorful, beautiful, difficult sometimes, and the music is simply wonderful
in short
this game is an 11/10

i like celestr


me to

I accidentally pinged you sorry
celeste is one of the games of all time
it is certainly one of the experiences ive had

yews yes

this game has decreased my chance of losing my virginity by at least 7% and that i am thankful for
thank you for this game it's perfect, just wtf is the last screen of farewell
this is a cool game

i just started playing recently and i'm already in love with this game
The coding, writing, and level design is amazing. But don't forget the fact that you though EVERYTHING through. Thank you for working so hard to make the perfect game.
I just wanted to say a huge thanks to the devs for creating this game. I absolutely love everything about this game, the gameplay, visuals, music, everything. Definitely one of my favourite games of all time.
Whilst my farewell golden grind isn't quite over just yet, it's nearing its end soon (hopefully) and I realised just how much I'm gonna miss streaming this game. It's been an absolute pleasure to play this through from my first steps, to my fwg completion soon.
Whilst I'm here I also wanna give a huge thanks to the community itself. I'm so grateful for all the support that has been given to me during my playthrough of the game (especially the farewell golden grinds). This is one of the most wholesome communities I've ever been a part of and I'm glad to have met you all.
I do plan on getting a PC in the future in order to play and stream all the custom content, but until then I will be staying in this community for the foreseeable future and will try to be way more active here as a whole.
This game is epic, it took me way too long to beat, yet never once did it feel impossible.
Nice balance, except for 3c and 6b, they left a bad taste in my mouth.
Tho, something that makes the game infinetely better is that one of the devs is a frickn cacodemon.
I can only assume it rams its face into a button of some kind to make magic happen.
Jokes asside, when i initially played the base game a year ago, i never realised madeline was trans, and such refferences scattered around and about.
They are there if you look for it, and not all in your face.
It gave me room to learn things without people shaming me for it, if that makes any amount of sense...
<cacodemon dev caught in 4k>
I never thought i needed a lena raine doom e1m1 remix up until now
i want to shake each of your hands
you know, for giving me something cool to sink 250 hours of my life into
you all are awesome 


I am addicted to your game
you know you made a good game when fucking morbius likes it
^

i'll say this
I got Celeste in 2019 at Epic Games, and I only played for 3 chapters, since at the time, I was more focused on video editing and just forgot to finish the rest
Replaying now in 2022, it managed to be one of my favorite games of all time
The game has everything good, it has a heartfelt story, beautiful art style, manages to teach you the basics of gameplay, good characters and is really super fun
It's hard at times, but the game's appeal kept me coming back for more and trying to get past the map.
And with the community making mods and speedruns for the game, it made it have a good active user base, which it's great to stick around.
Good work to all of you and thank you so much for making such a beautiful game and I hope a promising future for you
And also, I'm making my own video about Mario into the game in SMG4 styled as homenage for your amazing game
Thanks
Oh I forgot, the music is also amazing
My favorites are Confronting Myself and Mirror Temple (B-Side Remix)
Game is very cool 10/10 Will inspire my future games

Relatable


TY Devs 

thank you guys so so much for making this game! my current steam info is this; but I have more on my switch the 40$ was worth it to get it on my switch and pc
this game is beautiful
i could listen to the music for hours
actually i dont need to i already have
the sprite work is also just mmmmm
and the skips and advanced tech
safe to say this game is amazing

Bought this game literally 5 days ago. It's already my favourite single player game, and the best platformer I've seen in ages. The music is definitely really good and the design is awesome. Also has a really great story, and its physics is amazing!
Thank you for making this :)

I don't intend to play the game in the near future, but I just wanna drop in and say thanks to the developers for creating this heartfelt, emotional story of a 2D platformer.
same here! :D
I agree, you guys made an AMAZING experience with an amazing message. Most games that are hard as heck are... they just are, no real reason besides it feels more rewarding. The plot and story and setting of Celeste tie perfectly into the gameplay, and (In my opinion) the difficulty is really good as well! I feel like depending on how stressed a character is, the harder the level is. (Cough cough, Celeste Hotel A Side). I have spent so much time in this game, and I just want to thank you guys for adding assist mode. Without it, I wouldn't have been able to see a lot of the amazing work you guys did, and mentioning that it's for accessibility, and not cheating, makes it feel way more ok. It's ok to take the help if you need it, and that's the same here.
So: Thank you, so much. You guys deserve all the success you get, and more. (Also, there is no reason for you guys to put the game on sale for $5, I wish I paid $10!.)
Single-handedly the best Indie Game that I've ever tried. Thank you for such an inspiring and motivational game in many, many ways.


thank you guys so much. this game changed my life for the better and still is helping me cope a lot. i'm going through a hard time and celeste is one of the only things that cheer me up right now. thanks again for creating such an amazing piece of indie development 
I wanna thank an alleged SGDQ SMW run level creator. For the level she allegedly created for the event. Just watched the race and the level was sick! I really enjoyed watching the race and especially this level. Thank you! 💛
Oh, also thanks to the whole team for creating Celeste! 
hello!! me n my friend have been playing celeste for approx 2 years now. in total we have around 460 hours. both of us have anxiety disorders and madeline’s arc hit really hard for both of us. also I have used the feather technique during a panic attack, and it worked so well. I love this game so much. thank you for making it!! (ps i’ve bought celeste 3 times-and it’s worth so much more than the money i spent. Also here is some fanart i made recently.

(ps: this is the first video game where i ever beat the main goal.)
still grinding for goldening summit b side ❤️
hi thanks for making this game i dont think i would be where i am without it
Thank you devs, for making such an amazing game. From the stunning visuals, to the mechanics, and hell even the soundtrack. Let’s not forget how wholesome it is. Thank you. This game has inspired me, to face my fears. To do things I thought I couldn’t do. From all of my heart, thank you. I can not express how thankful I am.

Thank you for an experience unlike any other I have had in my gaming "career". No other game has ever captured me enough to spend over 50 hours on it in just a single week. This is truly one if the games of all time.


I bought this game about a week ago, and ever since then I have loved it. I've logged about 16 hours since then, and those have been some of the best hours playing video games of my life. Still grinding Farewell, and holy shit it is difficult, but I love it. Thank you EXOK!
