I unashamedly love Celeste, and I think this is a great port/demake/refactor for the SNES. I struggled with the controls a bit, but as feedback for my own game shows it appears I'm the outlier for how platform games should map controls on SNES.
It's a shame audio didn't make the cut as that really seals the deal on the vibe for this game, but I think you were wise to focus your efforts where you did and hopefully add audio after the jam!

- Nice demake for the SNES, we need more of these.
- Really challenging and engaging game! Once you grasp the controls most stages become easy to beat, but some will require several tries. Biggest problem is the lack of sound, I hope you will change this in the future and maybe add some more levels, I am sure some of the other guys would gladly help you.
- Honestly, an incredible demake — the gameplay is perfect, super responsive. I see you even made several levels on top of that. It’s really addictive, there’s nothing to complain about. Truly, it’s very enjoyable. I don’t see any major flaws — it’s addictive and does its job perfectly. It’s just a shame there’s no music or sound, though. That’s really the only downside. But hey, there’s even a title screen!
- Good port of Celeste, but is infringement copyright allowed...? (unless you have the author's permission?)
