jump should be x while grapple is c. Its really natural to roll the fingers inward but unnatural outwards. although I wouldn't use x or c in the first place. wasd with k as jump and j as grapple
PICO-8 maps Z and C to the same input (as with X and V) so you could just shift your hand over 1 key and get the same effect, at least on a QWERTY keyboard. Also the mappings are built into PICO-8 itself, so I'm not sure if there's any reasonable way to change them.
Wait you mean this screen? As far as I'm aware it just tells you the inputs and lets you test them. (If you're referring to something else I actually genuinely don't know or see it)
Cool game, and aside from some minor gripes (some of which I also had with the commercial version of Celeste), I think this is really well made. Especially for 3 days worth of work.
Awesome level design!! Nice mechanics, I only think that the hook + jump its a bit clunky to get at first, but when you master it it's very satisfying!
Man this game doesn't F around! As soon as you have the grapple ability, the levels are instantly hard XD
Some feedback: I got quite a long way without learning you could jump just after grappling. I kind of cheaped my way out of the pit after getting the grapple. It didn't feel right but I didn't know what else to do.
The way I actually found out was when I got sick of using the keyboard and re-loaded the browser so it would detect my gamepad, and then accidentally triggered it; at first I thought he/she was climbing up off the corner of a ledge. After a few times I worked out what was going on.
Maybe it needs a screen right at the start where there's no walls or anything to jump off, just a platform that's too far to make in a jump, but you need to grapple off the side of it, then jump.

You can press the little keyboard on the right of the player to change the controll!

Oh you can config only on PICO-8 on desktop… My bad!
i can not figue out controls on keyboard, can someone help?
Z or C makes you jump
X or V makes you use the character's ability (once you get it)
The left and right arrows move your character around
The up and down arrows don't seem to do anything (you test around with the jump and ability commands to go up and down)
Enter pauses the game and lets you see the options
Also, you need to go a lot by trial and error to learn how the controls work
I suck with keyboard. Does anyone know if a gamepad can be used?
Yes it can
Great mechanics! If you make a full sequel to Celeste, I will give you so much money. All my money.
This was a delight to experience! Keep being awesome!!!
really good stuff
yes
this was nice
Thanks for the game. I stopped getting strawberries after a while because my fingers were protesting. Maybe I should've just used a gamepad.

Very challenging, but very fun. I really like the level design, I can see how well several sections are designed while playing through them.
That falling snowball room is extremely annoying though...
Edit: Found the missing strawberry, turns out I skipped one in level 2 by mistake (upper path in the room with the large drop).
WAIT WHERE ARE THE OTHER BERRIES
I HAVE MAXED AT 14
Holy hell that was rough. It's so good to feel like a novice again. Thanks for reminding us yet again why these games are so great.
I am consistently amazed by how you're able to convey techniques and mechanics without so much as a word of instruction.
Thank you for the experience. I can't wait for what you make next.
Damn that was fun, I guess I missed a lot more berries than I thought.

I think it's not very difficult to get in 3 mins, but don't know if sub2 is possible
Love the gameplay with the hook, already trying to be too fancy. Once you figure out you can jump right out of grappling, movement feels really nice.
I love grappling hooks!!

Was gonna get all of the strawberries but accidentally went to the next screen on one of the level 3 ones.
edit: speedrun pb 3:03
This is incredibly fun to play! And to think I was going to go to sleep. Can't wait to see the speedrunners take on this one!

Anyone know how many strawberries there are?

Extremly cool game!
Very solid. It's challenging but fair. If this is the direction we can expect the official release of Celeste 2 to take, I'm all in.

Absolutely loved learning the grapple mechanic, incredible game!
This looks and plays amazing. Lena's soundtracks are perfect as usual.

absolutely devilish, loved it.
will there be a full version? :)
Beautiful!
This is such a wonderful surprise. <3 Thank you!
jumping while tapping forward makes you move more to the side than sometimes intended - which i found a bit frustrating. besides that, p great.
