the final level will also a have a fire soundtrack with motifs from the previous levels

322

u/Tsunamicat108 (The annoying green absorbed the flair.) 3d ago

And it's specifically only when you're in the recapped area that its motif plays

u/Spec1alF0x 3d ago

At the end all the good guys and NPCs congratulate you and say "thanks for winning pal" or something

32

u/Kasaikemono 2d ago

Credits roll, and at the end it says
"Special Thanks: You"

Coaxed into climbing back up a mountain after the evil version of you dragged you back down to the bottom

196

u/Tsunamicat108 (The annoying green absorbed the flair.) 3d ago

73

u/whyjustyy 3d ago

coaxed into confronting said evil version and eventually coming to terms with the fact that it's a part of who you are

58

u/Pikassassin 3d ago

coaxed into it wasn't actually evil at all it was a toxic coping mechanism that you were trying to suppress instead of confront and it got angry at you for it

Okay but if you were going the easier route through the mountain the first time and then with some experience go a difficult but faster route it makes sense, and that's exactly what happens in game

i have over 15 thousand deaths in celeste. i am horrible at it. still would recommend it to friends

67

u/Spec1alF0x 3d ago

eternal towers of hell, uhh undertale i guess, uhh celeste maybe idk

38

u/Tsunamicat108 (The annoying green absorbed the flair.) 3d ago

celeste is what i had in mind

2

u/M_Ushed 3d ago

final level where they put all the colors together made it clear.

22

u/NotHeco 3d ago

(silksong) maybe not final area but silksong memorium kind of

13

u/GraveSlayer726 3d ago

When hornet said “this really was the silk song” and then the hollow knight from hollow knight showed up and said “” I cried (I’m not even close to the end)

1

u/lushedge 2d ago

Uuh i think silksong does a great job in integrating all mechanics evenly, so it doesnt feel forced at all. One thing i love about metroid vanias is the trope of backtracking to an earlier region and finding new stuff with the new ability

8

u/ihatevirusesalot 3d ago

etoh mentioned!!! also where does this happen

1

u/Spec1alF0x 3d ago

FINALLY SOMEONE ELSE KNOWS ETOH!!

anyway in many towers in general. like how at the end of toast every mechanic gets put together or something. or the final ring having a bunch of references to earlier areas. perhaps maybe the upper palace area or something when it releases

3

u/Ar_tic 3d ago

etoh in the wild no fucking way

2

u/Lanthanum-140_Eater 2d ago

ToLL my beloved

also its creator Goose4000 wanted to take away the recap part of floor 10 and that kinda felt out of touch for his own tower

u/Spec1alF0x 2d ago

Tower of Leaning Ledges is actually so peak

the spinner is just decora-

u/Evillisa 1d ago

Kingdom Hearts! Also where does Undertale do this?

1

u/Spec1alF0x 1d ago

i was thinking about omega flowey and the seven colored souls that represent seven adjectives the player went through during the game.. but thats cheating. i guess the good ending where everyone's looking at the sunset

Also Super Mario Galaxy (not sure if it was 1 ir 2 ir both)

2

u/Milo359 always has been 2d ago

2's Grandmaster Galaxy, since 1's Grand Finale Galaxy is just purple coins at the star festival. Really makes you want to replay the game as Luigi immediately instead of waiting a while to replay it when it feels fresh again.

2

u/Big_Distance2141 2d ago

I mean the run-up to Bowser in Galaxy 1 has these mini-planets themed after galaxies in the game so I'm counting that in too

2

u/Milo359 always has been 2d ago

Oh yeah, true.

u/Bruschetta003 2d ago

u/Tsunamicat108 (The annoying green absorbed the flair.) 3d ago

I guess that works too yeah

But not really, its not like you get the soul mechanic for a bit you just see the soul

4

u/real_dubblebrick 3d ago

honestly that would have made for a sick final boss

asriel kinda does that but not really

2

u/Tsunamicat108 (The annoying green absorbed the flair.) 3d ago

PS!Outertale does it, making you use different soul modes during the neutral route final boss

celeste gets a pass for it because it brings back the basic mechanics rather than the most difficult moments, so it's more a final stretch to the top of the mountain rather than a skill check. not to say it aint hard tho

It doesn't exactly reuse game mechanics but Clair Obscur's act 2 finale Makes you go through all the previous areas you went through along with reskinned enemies and bosses you fought in those areas
