Haha, and here I was thinking that I did horribly. I saw someone on a random reddit thread say they did it in 400 and something.
As I was typing this out I rechecked the thread and they we’re playing the full PC version with assist mode on. Apparently the PC version has the original playable within the game at some point. A quick Google search put the average at 1000-1200 or more deaths for the Pico-8 version.
So, damn. That makes me feel pretty awesome lol. Thanks for the kind words, you made my day!

I played the pico-8 version for the first time after the full game including all the B/C sides and farewell, so it took around 100 deaths, but thats with a significant amount of experience for the type of platforming Celeste offers and the type of level design Maddie and co tend toward.

Yeah, I dabbled a bit with the full game since I own it through itch.io. But never played past the third stage. I’m no stranger towards brutal platformers though, so maybe that gave me a little bit of a boost. I can hold my own with fairly difficult games and have even tried my hand at some Mario Kaizo hacks. That said, I still felt like I was doing a lot worse than I was apparently. It’s also been quite some time since I really took on a challenge of this difficulty, as I have been mostly been playing cozy stuff like TOEM and GNOG lately. I’m really enjoying the change of pace though, it feels good to beat a good challenge like this again. I’m playing through Celeste Classic 2 now, and I’ll be playing the full Celeste soon as well.

Full Celeste is a fucking joy. With experience in kaizo hacks and such you’ll adore the b/c sides and farewell. Maddie is a Mario romhacker, after all
