This is the original PICO-8 Celeste Classic by Maddy Thorson and Noel Berry, made in four days. It is a small complete platform game, distinct from the later commercial Celeste. Each screen is a short movement puzzle, and deaths restart the room quickly. Strawberries offer optional challenges beyond simply reaching the next screen.
