Celeste Strawberry Jam - Pinball Purgatory by maya (Full Clear)

pumber
--
Pinball Purgatory is said by many to be the hardest SJ map, and those many are wrong. With this map, maya has managed to make bumper gameplay actually fun and enjoyable; it's even more impressive that it's done at such a high level. That's not to say it was always that way, as the first build of this map contained a 1:45 long GM+2 final room which was deemed to be TAS only - clearly, it's come a long way. This was the very first Strawberry Jam map I ever played when I joined the collaboration as a playtester, and it set a huge standard that few very maps ever overcame. My original playthrough took me something like 24 hours and 16,000 deaths, so hopefully I'm slightly better at the game now. The only bad thing about this map is the berry after the heart, which is just abysmal in every way: every downdash is a 1 frame input, all other inputs are 2 frame windows, and the removal of freeze frames is just kind of cruel. The rest of the map is near perfection, so don't let that berry alone turn you off - if there's one cracked map you play, let it be this. 9/10

[@chuashanganluciennhps9992]

i suspect it was a conscious decision by maddy to make it easier for new players, especially with the mechanic being introduced in chapter 1 already

wait so do you think the solar express is harder than this?

[@Gamation108]

for a first clear stateless absolutely, when we were doing playtesting that's how I played both and solar was way harder - even with states for a first clear idk i have the pumber gene apparently so

[@_dan1715]

@@Gamation108 fair fair, i hope im more suited to solar because otherwise im fucked (im near the end of pumber and do not want to have to spend this long on another sj map lol)

[@meta04]

also, is GMHS stateless even viable
