Resolution criteria
This market will resolve based on the number of Golden Strawberries I have collected in Celeste as of May 15, 2026.
The game has 26 Golden Strawberries across all chapters, including A-Sides, B-Sides, C-Sides, and the Farewell chapter, and the 1A winged Golden Strawberry.
Since finishing Farewell a week or two ago I have collected four Golden Strawberries, being 1A, 1C, W1A and 2A.
I don’t use assist mode, cheats, or variants.
I will only buy YES in this market.
I will provide updates and resolutions as I go.
Background (AI-Generated)
In Celeste, Golden Strawberries are special collectibles that appear at the start of each chapter after completing the Core B-Side. To collect a Golden Strawberry, a player must complete the entire chapter without dying; any death results in the loss of the berry, and the player must restart from the beginning. These berries serve as some of the game's most challenging objectives, testing a player's consistency and mastery of the game's mechanics. (celeste.ink)
The game features Golden Strawberries in various chapters:
A-Sides: Each main chapter's A-Side has a Golden Strawberry.
B-Sides and C-Sides: These harder versions of the main chapters also contain Golden Strawberries.
Farewell Chapter: The final chapter, known for its difficulty, includes a single Golden Strawberry.
Additionally, Forsaken City A-Side features a unique Winged Golden Strawberry, which requires completing the chapter without dashing. (celeste.ink)
Collecting all Golden Strawberries is a significant achievement, often pursued by players seeking to fully master the game's challenges.
Considerations
Skill level: I have obtained the Moonberry and obtained all regular berries and hearts. I haven’t played any modded content. Getting here has taken me around 100 hours and several years on-and-off.
Time Commitment: I have a full time job and socialise on the weekend. I can sometimes go weeks without playing.
Motivation: I really like Celeste. I think it’s one of the best platformers ever. I can play the same screen for hours. But also, I have a Nintendo Switch 2 on preorder, so that will likely take priority at some point.
