I completely forgot about the final door on the Chapter 8 C-side lol. Whoops. My bad on that. The path to the moonberry is, in my opinion, the real hardest room of Farewell. For me at least. Using the jellyfish like that is the bane of my existence lol. Although granted, it was mainly that little narrow spike path that kept getting me. Despite that, it’s still a really fun room. Just an unbelievably mean one given you need to do Farewell’s final screen first. (And apparently the golden strawberry adds one more room at the very end too.) I just assumed the magic of Celeste mountain was just ordinary stuff you see in Canada. You mean there aren’t monsters, reality warps, impossible geometry, and strawberries up there!? I had no idea of that mechanic either lol. It’s clever.
No worries! ^w^ It was a fun little surprise for both of us! Ah, that's an interesting perspective! By the end, I felt like I had an easier time with it (if maybe a little longer) than some of the earlier ones with the coloured blocks changing in time with the music. That probably speaks more to my horrible rhythm, though. But yes, absolutely they ask a fair bit of quick movement from you with the jellyfish mechanics in the moon berry path! The golden strawberry does WHAT?! I was sort of assuming the point of requiring you to die on the spikes was so that you couldn't take a golden strawberry to the moon berry path. Do you mean to say that the golden strawberry adds _another_ room to do after the utility box?! Pure h e c k. Uhhh, no, no, I misspoke! Of course the mythical Canadian monsters are real! I almost bought one from PetSmart last week! And, uh, we do have strawberries! ...A lot of them imported, but we do have them! Yes, the 1-Up's a cute little addition. All the little flourishes of this game!
@ Yeah, it’s not overwhelmingly hard (none of Farewell really is, it’s just the length that drains you) but it was definitely that sort of puzzle that’s consistently my weakness. Yup! Supposedly the last extra room isn’t that hard, but it’s daunting regardless given that it’s a room of Farewell you’ve never seen. Apparently if you do take the golden strawberry on that route, dying to those spikes specifically will allow you to keep it. So maybe it somehow doesn’t count as a real death? Ahh, phew! That’s the Canada I’ve heard of! Indeed!
Canadian here. I can 100% confirm that there aren't any sort of monsters, reality warps, and impossible geometry. HOWEVER, strawberries exist so do with that information what you will. wait what's that thing behind me

@ Based on what you said, a strawberry. So absolutely nothing to worry about.
