I always love to see Tasbot run Celeste. The game itself is amazing and the way Tas just casually ignores physics throughout the run is always a treat.
@@marcthomas4488 TASbot is the Tool Assisted Speedrun mascot, basically. A Tool Assisted Speedrun is a speedrun where the runner, instead of going through the game with years of practice and frame perfect tricks that require endless resets to get right, instead uses a computer program to go through a game literally frame by frame and input commands into an executable file that, when run, will play those commands again in order. Since a Tool Assisted Speedrun isn't played by a human in realtime, it allows for some ridiculous input combinations, which allows TASBot users to do things that abuse a game's engine and coding to the limit in ways human players never could. So when they're talking about a route not being RTA viable, they're saying 'no human player can pull this route off because of the input timings required. Or to put it a simpler way: They use a program to script a literal frame perfect run, and then TASbot is the program that plays that frame perfect script. Obviously, TAS runs are their own separate category of speedrunning from normal runs, since it's not a contest of gaming skill but instead a contest to find the exact optimized route over an entire game.
@@marcthomas4488 TASbot itself is the robot on the table next to me, it's just holding a controller which shows what buttons are being pressed in the game. A TAS (Tool-Assisted Speedrun) is a sequence of inputs (for example, press right, down, and A for 14 frames, then right and B for one) which can be replayed in the game. In Celeste, we can do things like pause/frame advance the game, as well as watch variables like Madeline's speed, to make it easier to make this sequence of inputs.
@@lunar532 If you mean the "moonwalk" (not exactly, but as good a name as any), it looks like they programmed some single frame directional inputs (left-right-left-right etc.) for the Madeline-bot to do while waiting for the door to unlock.
What makes this extra cool is that they're not even really breaking the game, they're just using the tools that were given to them by the developers and taking them to the extreme!
These Celeste runs just always leave me in awe. I have yet to 100% this game but each time I watch a speedrun I get a newfound desire to have another go at it
The best part of this is that I barely have any idea what's going on but I still love it 23:18 "We Dont Like Auto-Scrollers" 23:26 "The TAS is it's Own Auto-Scroller"
I hope that Covert blocks are a hidden Easter egg in the big Celeste update coming up - it would be an awesome surprise that if you 100% clear Chapter 9, you unlock the Covert voice option
I've only played through a couple screens of Celeste myself, but it's still one of my favorite platformers of all time. The controls and mechanics are great, the music is fantastic and the story fits the rest of the game perfectly. It's so great to see this.
Its actually great, i dont know about you, but ive never seen a crowd this active and REactive, usually they’re silent, i was actually suprised when i heard the crowd laugh.
Really sad I couldn't catch the live run to donate, I love the heck out of this game. The fact that TASbot absolute destroys the mechanics of Celeste, it's hilarious watching Madeline go fast for charity, especially at the core.
It's impossible, without knowing what room to go to it would be a lot of exploration and figuring out where to go. That said, on a room by room basis, it would be nuts, and logically completely possible
Just finished the game. 14h and 5 min. 4870 deaths (most at resort and 1500 home stretch) I suck at difficult games, but i loved every second of this one thanks to the quick respawns and short segments you have to retrace.
How is it that I've never even heard of this game? I would have thought we'd be at the height of civilization and technology and information here in Singapore but I guess not.

"Did you know?
It is impossible to outrun your own reflection"
Madeline: *Watch me.*
Shes too fast to watch her
Caffeine-induced Madeline makes a return, now with an insatiable craving for red berries.
gotta get those calories back
NUMNUMNUMNUMNUM
she just eats them immediately instead of saving them for the pie
Badeline: We're not a mountain climber!
Madeline: No, we're something more.
We’re mountain *runners*
At that speed Madeline could outrun her depression.
Lmao nice one
No..
THE DEPRESSION RUNS FROM HER.
"The intended strat is lava" is the best way to describe this TAS

I always love to see Tasbot run Celeste. The game itself is amazing and the way Tas just casually ignores physics throughout the run is always a treat.
what actually is Tasbot , and how does it run the game?

Celeste TAS is my favorite TAS to watch. The movement in this game is so cool.
Entire screens passed like whoa!
You should also check out TAS Ori and the blind forest. Kind of the same :D
yeah, i cant wait to see the speedrun in like 20 years, everyones just demo dashing everywhere.. better igt that this tas
Half Life 2 and Celeste are probably the most fun bot runs I’ve seen so far
8:48 “YOURE DOING AMAZING SWEETIE”
"REMEMBER TO BREATHE!"
@@litewavegames3967 😂😂😂
LMAO
The CovertMuffin laugh replacing the Kevin grumbles is the best thing to ever happen in the history of the universe
The Covert Blocks were a wonderful surprise
anybody care to comment with how they did that?
@@ICountFrom0 Kevin replaced one of the audio files shortly before the run
Quite amazing. Glad I finally got around to finishing Celeste before the Tas run.
Hey me too. Actually i was only able to finish because of the technical difficultys they had at the start.
you were almost to late you know how fast tasbot can be
I'm just gonna assume this is how all canadians get around.
As a Canadian I can confirm
@@ellie8272 really I thpight canadians slis around on maple syrup
It is
Yes, we do bend reality to fly up mountains and through spikes
When we get to the spikes we just go “sorry” and scoot around
49:19
So satisfying.
Thank you.
"oddly satisfing"
43:09 return of tasbot
Thanks
I love the berry train so much. I will cherish it forever
I guess you could say you will *CHERRYSH IT*
38:35 they turn up the game when the music was mentioned :D
All aboard the strawberry train. Choo choo
oh no i missed the train darn it im gonna be late
Every 1, UP !
Choo choo
I just love how the "Orb"'s just ceased, because it was too amazing to look at.
Celeste runs are must watch at GDQ, so awesome and satisfying to watch, such great community and atmosphere around this game too!
This is just what a casual run looks like done by a player after they've completed Chapter 9
Facts
15:36 Moon Walk from TASBot in Celeste.
VideoGamez
How do you do it?
@@lunar532 If you mean the "moonwalk" (not exactly, but as good a name as any), it looks like they programmed some single frame directional inputs (left-right-left-right etc.) for the Madeline-bot to do while waiting for the door to unlock.
Madeline literally eats strawberries for 11 seconds straight
The Covert_Muffin blocks are easily my favorite part of this GDQ
Knowing all the rooms and subtilities of the physics engine makes this run a true piece of art
fills you with DETERMINATION
Mathi 5000 adrenaline*
What makes this extra cool is that they're not even really breaking the game, they're just using the tools that were given to them by the developers and taking them to the extreme!
This run is one of my favorites, awesome job team
god dude I love this community
CovertMuffin laugh replacing the Kevin grumbles at 32:48 just if anyone was wondering
These Celeste runs just always leave me in awe. I have yet to 100% this game but each time I watch a speedrun I get a newfound desire to have another go at it
The best part of this is that I barely have any idea what's going on but I still love it
23:18 "We Dont Like Auto-Scrollers"
23:26 "The TAS is it's Own Auto-Scroller"
chapter 9: *comes out*
everyone ever rushing to go download it: 14:09 55:47
Celeste is one of my favorite games, and this was a fun TAS.
I hope that Covert blocks are a hidden Easter egg in the big Celeste update coming up - it would be an awesome surprise that if you 100% clear Chapter 9, you unlock the Covert voice option
i know im 2 years late but you can get the covert voices by naming your file "FWAHAHA"
49:20 is the best moment of this entire tas honestly.
I can't get that AMAZING voice out of my head at 8:19 , it's SO HYPE!!!!! He says let's go at the top of his lungs and I love it
The Covertmuffin blocks are just the best thing ever :D
Love the CovertMuffin blocks - would know that laugh anywhere!
8C was absolutely nuts. Amazing work everyone!
32:47
FWAHAHAHA
I've only played through a couple screens of Celeste myself, but it's still one of my favorite platformers of all time. The controls and mechanics are great, the music is fantastic and the story fits the rest of the game perfectly. It's so great to see this.
to put it in Theo's words: "Now you're just showing off"
I thought last years Celeste TASBot run was impressive
Wow!
i love covert blocks so much
that was hard... great job!
Also that one guy when anything exciting happens “OAHH”
For those curious, the time for that C-Side was about 28 seconds
6 seconds of which was just waiting for the heart gate to count 23 hearts and to open.
Last years TAS bot was one of my favourite videos on TH-cam. I’m so glad they made another Celeste TAS video 😁
The artwork, like visual and audio, is sooo amazing!!!!
55:47 made me lol so freaking hard I went back to watch it again
LOVE this crowd, they're so alive
Its actually great, i dont know about you, but ive never seen a crowd this active and REactive, usually they’re silent, i was actually suprised when i heard the crowd laugh.
after playing celeste myself, all i can say is HOLY FUCK
Those big blocks having muffins laugh is just adorable.
Love every one showing support for a game people love.
55:48 I still can't believe this wasn't Most Replayed
Celeste...a new Amazing Modern Game...WITH TAS BOT...THIS IS GOING TO BE GOOOD!!!!!
Really sad I couldn't catch the live run to donate, I love the heck out of this game. The fact that TASbot absolute destroys the mechanics of Celeste, it's hilarious watching Madeline go fast for charity, especially at the core.
top-tier commentary, really enjoyed it
"Spikes? Nah! I just pretend they don't exist"
What was that C side WHAT? Incredible TAS once again, I will try to donate next year for some GDQ if I can !
55:46 Madeline merges with the Speed Force
Shoutout to the person shouting "LET'S GO" incredibly hyped
Damn this year's GDQ has been really damn good.
Thank you. This is the first event where I'm happy about absolutely everything we did.
Mr. oshiro seeing his whole hotel being cleaned in 1 minute
:0
Shoutouts to all of the robots out there suffering from anxiety.
6:40 - This. This is community.
Celeste is one of the best games i played in Years.
Im not good in Speedrunning but i still love it =)
I found out the creator of Celeste made some Super Mario Maker 2 levels, so of course I had to see it obliterated by TASBot!
shoutout to the person that keeps screaming "yaaaas"
Dude he made me so happy for being so excited
Wow... summit alone took me over twice as long as this entire run.
I wanna see TasBot do a Celeste 100% NoDeath next
For real
This is like my personal highlight every time I watch GDQ
Now imagine if AI got to the point where it could do this in real time without a human created command list.
probably not gonna happen any time soon tho
It's impossible, without knowing what room to go to it would be a lot of exploration and figuring out where to go. That said, on a room by room basis, it would be nuts, and logically completely possible
@@orik737 theres already a mario ai
rek 1 my response is to this is Mario is hold right this game is not
Thank you, Tyler.
Two thousand hours went into making this TAS. That's 83 days an 8 hours.

Never played celeste
The sick movement....I’m going to play Celeste.
THANK YOU TYLER
Badeline: we’re not a mountain climber
TASbot Madeline: No, we’re a god.
Nice to see that there is now a strawberry tasbot run
*Madeline on the C-Side:* "You're time is up, my time is now. *_YOU CAN'T SEE ME, MY TIME IS NOW!!!"_*
PLAY THIS GAME!!
PLAY IT!!
The Sound Barrier: **exists**
TASBot:Are you challenging me?
13:36 holy shit that looked cool
this turned from "yeah that looks like strats" to "excuse me but *w h a t*"
Was my definite favorite part of GDQ.
Touring ginger goes mach 5 up local mountain to build character, parallel dimension plumbers are furious.
How is it that I've never even heard of this game? I would have thought we'd be at the height of civilization and technology and information here in Singapore but I guess not.
Thank you Tyler
One of the best games for tas!
Covert Muffin cameo at 32:47
I fucking lost it at Covert Muffin voice replacement on the Kevin blocks omg....
Damn, forgot about the livestream this year. Had 50 bucks to donate. I guess Winter GDQ is only a few months away.
Plot twist: the TAS bot was just tgh playing
Obviously
