If you beat something (I think it's farewell) you unlock 'other self' in the variants. 'Other self' switches your sprite to look like 'part of madaline'
it coincidentally came with the farewell update, but you don't need to beat it (can confirm, i used other self through the entire stubbornness checkpoint of farewell for the first time)
Actually the 10th flag on chapter 7A is impossible with low friction + super dashing so I doubt all variants on would be possible. Unless you maybe do some hokey shit with the hiccups it’s impossible
A few of these actually originate from other locations. -No grabbing. I don't think it has much of an official origin. Likely created over the no grab challenge. -Low friction. From the core while icy. Game speed was moved from assists to variants, due to the new function of speeding up the game. Super dashing likely won't work on B and C sides, due to a more precise nature. Hiccups are really interesting. You can be hurt or helped, a double-edged sword that I think would be a really interesting challenge. And 360 dashing. Only for controller players, not too interesting otherwise. Mirror and invisible motion just speak for themselves.
It could make my using a controller much easier. I have died many times because I forgot there's no 360 dashing (on my save). I'm glad to know that once I get to c sides and beat it that I can turn it on.
360 dashing feels great because I use the joystick. Though now I kinda wish that it wasn't just in variant mode but its better to unlock it later than never.
With this variant mode I essentially made my own little “You can now play as Luigi!” I turned on the “Other Self” variant, turned on mirror mode, turned on low friction, and set the game speed to 120%. (Tried 140% but it was too fast for my taste) I found that the only section that wasn’t plausible for me was the 10th checkpoint in the summit’s a-side due to the low friction. It’s probably possible, but WAY too precise for me.
I am trying to beat the game with all variants. Currently in prologue and forsaken there are 2 screens that are “impossible”. The climbing screen in the prologue and the final screen of forsaken before the fire and memorial and the end of the chapter.
iamdadbod 160% game speed, mirror mode, 360 dashing, invisible motion, no grabbing, low friction, super dashing, and hiccups. Basically all of them, also no assist mode.
Fairly sure both of those screens are doable with neutral jumps. All you need for the prologue one is neutrals. The city screen may not be doable, you might be able to get up onto the left wall from a neutral jump by careful timing of a hiccup, then neutral up to the top and super-dash up.
With Variants mode enabled, you can do things like this: th-cam.com/video/sUHcRCaHKbI/w-d-xo.html You also maybe could want to show a couple of new things added to the Variant options, as Murat Flitz mentioned. And I don't know if you ever tried getting squished (by any moving block) while invincible. Variants mode offer a lot of funny posibilities!
Once the Farewell DLC comes out, all platforms should be updated to current patch, so they'll have Variants as well. As far as I know, there's not a set date on that yet though. Soon (TM)
So with the game speed moved to variants... does that mean we can't slow the game down before unlocking variants? Only do very unfair things like more dashes/invincibility? That's stupid.
i have 1.1.3.0, and it doesn't show up. i beat the game i got all strawberries, i did everything honestly and i can't get variant mode ;-; im also on pc sooo idk if it's broken
@@iamdadbod I don't know if it's because of the assist mode?.. I'm not sure if i can't turn on variant mode on because of it, maybe i just got a broken version?

I beat the entirety of farewell with the other self thing in variant mode it was neat seeing my sprite not being the madeline I’m use too
Does it resprite Badeline to look like Madeline?
@@awesome118-smmosadly not, it should though
can't wait for new hiccups% run
New challenge: Game Speed 160% with all other variants On
160% with inf dash and super dash
Actually the 10th flag on chapter 7A is impossible with low friction + super dashing so I doubt all variants on would be possible.

@@_g0ldf15h_ what if upu did 7b instead
Insane
There is one or two ways to die while invincible. The blocking walls of hearts.
And when you use up all falling blocks and have to retry
@@mrturtle8579 use infinite dashes to leave and re-enter the room
Why can’t my hiccups be adorable. ;-;
Right, mine are word and gross
iamdadbod I didn’t know people could have “word” hiccups.

Good call out
I actually found a glitch about no grab mode
When you go out of red orb and hit a wall you can actually climb it
Super/360 dashing, as well as Low Friction all come from Towerfall Ascension, the previous game by the same developers as Celeste.p
No grabbing is also from the icy core the weird conveyor things turn into no grab walls while icy.
if you use 360 dashing on keyboard, it would stip the game the moment you hold the dash button
HE DOESN'T BLINK
I'm in the zone XD
360 dashing is gonna make TAS runs very interesting

It would be cool if there was also an unside down mode and a mode that changes gravity
Those are mods available currently
upside down mirror is expanded variants
and upside down GRAVITY is gravity helper
Your intro is delightful it made me grin
"I am dad bod /tonight/"
Let’s get that 360 Dashing onto the consoles real quick.
Challenge: Beat the game with hiccup mode on
Hiccups are completely infuriating I love it
I want this in my switch version. I only need to beat core c-side and then I'm done.
Nice, that's a fun one
iamdadbod I've beaten Core C-side and I even did the golden strawberry. That's my first golden strawberry on a c-side.
Hell yeah, get em all!!
Infinite dashes, infinite stamina but ground is lava (you die on stepping on floor)
That's extremely easy... also, you're put on the ground during cutscene, and at the beginning of EVERY chapter.
Super dashes then
Can we get a Mirror Mode speedrun?
Not a bad idea
Dang it this is back in my recommended and won’t leave again ._.
Baw, sorry
Tfw your hiccups make you fly like 2 feet in the air
Nobody:
Invisible motion:
ZA WARUDO!!!
I completed chapter 7 in mirror and invinsible mode, it took me around 50 minutes
I am trying to beat the game with all variants. Currently in prologue and forsaken there are 2 screens that are “impossible”. The climbing screen in the prologue and the final screen of forsaken before the fire and memorial and the end of the chapter.
Interesting, what variants are you doing
iamdadbod 160% game speed, mirror mode, 360 dashing, invisible motion, no grabbing, low friction, super dashing, and hiccups. Basically all of them, also no assist mode.
Damn

The_Cookie_Monster I don’t think that you can even DO neutral jumps. I’ve tried.
this really helps for getting the moon berry or farewell lol
Now do 7C with 360 dashing
That seems like no fun
@@iamdadbod yeah, only a masochist would do that
@@disc_00 and you are a sadist because you have such ideas
I think it would be cool if you did a similar thing now, but with extended variant mode
the stare at the beginning
Video starts at 1:23
do what you think is the hardest A-side on 160% game speed
The hardest a-side for you normally
@@deskilln yea
That can be done
The first thing I did when I unlocked Variant Mode was do a full challenge playthrough of the A Sides at 160% speed
How did that go?
@@iamdadbod fairly well. Approximately 2 hours and about 600 collective deaths to beat the game, though I daren’t try the B and C sides
That's actually really good, gg
Is this before Assist mode was added to Celeste?
somehow i unlocked normal variants without beating 8c
Very interesting
Were you on PC or console
iamdadbod PC, my guess as to why is mods (i have expanded variants, but i actually have a separate menu with superdash/hiccups/etc.)
Makes sense
Do variants disable achievements? I may use 50% speed to give myself more time to react to shit
No, not even assist mode disables achievements
With Variants mode enabled, you can do things like this:

Is it on switch aswell?
So far PC only
Once the Farewell DLC comes out, all platforms should be updated to current patch, so they'll have Variants as well. As far as I know, there's not a set date on that yet though. Soon (TM)
BEST GAME EVER
Agree
So with the game speed moved to variants... does that mean we can't slow the game down before unlocking variants? Only do very unfair things like more dashes/invincibility? That's stupid.
is this like a mod?
