Celeste All Red Berries, but faster than you've ever seen it (TASBot SGDQ 2019 TAS block)
34,646TASBot takes the Celeste All Red Berries train and discovers CovertMuffin blocks (with downtime edited out) by euni, fishmcmuffins, and kilaye, joined on the couch by TGH, buhbai, Kevin from PowerUp Audio, and dwangoAC at the SGDQ 2019 TAS block. This TAS is incredible, complete with a massive chain of red berries following Madeline up the mountain.
GDQ set the donation incentive to $175k to see this game and viewers responded resoundingly, filling the donation incentive with plenty of time to spare. This Celeste All Red Berries TAS represents over 2,000 hours of effort spearheaded by euni with help from fishmcmuffins and kilaye. This TAS was made with tools pioneered by DevilSquirrel and extended over time by others.
The commentary on this run is some of the best at any GDQ, with frequent asides from TGH on realtime viability and developer commentary right on the couch from Kevin who helped in the creation of the game. This run even includes a surprise beyond the jawdropping; unbeknownst to many, Kevin from PowerUp Audio secretly altered the sound played by his namesake blocks to spread some FWAHAHA love.
Note: During the event a minor startup issue occurred which required restarting the run; that section has been edited out of the video. Additionally, the GDQ sound board crashed during the run causing 10 seconds of lost audio after which the run was paused until the issue could be resolved. The downtime during that issue was also edited. The run is otherwise unbroken as evidenced by the countdown timer and everything presented is a legitimate playthrough; the tools used to create this TAS do not alter gameplay in any way and this represents the fastest possible way to navigate the game based on how the game is written. There is no cheating on display here, only hours of dedication by the TAS authors to determine the fastest possible route through the game while collecting every single Red Berry in the game.
