Avatar of ChocoCaramelPawn


Celeste is a platformer game made in 2018, where the player is controlling Madeline who wants to climb the mountain. During the climb she will deal with depression and anxiety, fight her demons and meet new friends. The game consists of 8 chapters that can be used as a variants name:

  • Chapter 1 - Forsaken City
  • Chapter 2 - Old site
  • Chapter 3 - Celestial Resort
  • Chapter 4 - Golden Ridge
  • Chapter 5 - Mirror Temple
  • Chapter 6 - Reflection
  • Chapter 7 - The Summit
  • Chapter 8 - Core
  • Chapter 9 - Farewell
  • Chapter 9D - Final Goodbye (This is a modded level, but it is very famous among the community)

Additionally, every chapter considers a crystal heart that usually requires solving a puzzle, unlocking a secret room or item, or all of that at the same time. After getting the heart, you are given a unique achievement for each chapter of the game, which can also be used as a variant name. Here is the list of them:

  • Pointless Machines: Collect the Crystal Heart in Chapter 1.
  • Resurrections: Collect the Crystal Heart in Chapter 2.
  • Scattered and Lost: Collect the Crystal Heart in Chapter 3.
  • Eye of the Storm: Collect the Crystal Heart in Chapter 4.
  • Quiet and Falling: Collect the Crystal Heart in Chapter 5.
  • Heavy and Frail: Collect the Crystal Heart in Chapter 6.
  • Pink Sunrise: Collect the Crystal Heart in Chapter 7.
  • Heart of the Mountain: Collect the Crystal Heart in Chapter 8.
  • Sever the Skyline: Complete Chapter 1's B-Side.
  • Black Moonrise: Complete Chapter 2's B-Side.
  • Good Karma: Complete Chapter 3's B-Side.
  • Golden Feather: Complete Chapter 4's B-Side.
  • Mirror Magic: Complete Chapter 5's B-Side.
  • Centre of the Earth: Complete Chapter 6's B-Side.
  • No More Running: Complete Chapter's 7 B-Side.
  • Say Goodbye: Complete Chapter 8 B-Side.
  • Thanks For Playing: Complete every C-Side.

Additionally, every part of music from the game has its own name too, there are a total of 43 music tracks, each having a unique name. Here's a list of soundtracks that can be a good name for a variant in my opinion:

  • 04 - Awake
  • 06 - Checking in
  • 07 - Spirit of Hospitality
  • 09 - Golden
  • 10 - Anxiety
  • 12 - In the mirror
  • 14 - Starjump
  • 17 - Little Goth
  • 18 - Reach for the Summit
  • 19 - Exhale
  • 20 - Heart of The Mountain
  • XX - Fear of Unknown
  • XX - Joy of Remembrance
  • XX - In Stasis
  • XX - Crash

If you like any of the names above, use them for your variant and join the Celeste naming trend!

List of Variants that participate in the trend:

Type of Submission Variant Creator Description
VW submission (UR) Farewell @yu-x897 Bye!
VW submission (A) Forsaken City @2bHNST

They said it couldn't be done. So I did it.
So ye, crazyhouse giveaway.
Make a 3-move capture chain, stalemate, or lose all pieces to win.
A lot of tactics involve the edge columns.
Pieces in your setup bank are better than pawns because of Fatal.

The title fits this because the idea of Crazyhouse+Giveaway was abandoned. Yes, that's a GD reference. Which means this is also on the Demonlist series (it's a platformer Easy Demon, but still). Also Celeste reference, yes.

While this isn't a 6x6, I feel this still fits the spirit of Pocket Chess, as the main game happens on a 6x6, and space is very small.

VU submission (UR) Heavy and Frail @yu-x897

I submitted this to clean my templates
Name is Celeste reference (Naming trend)

This isn't good
