1000 M

**1000 M** is the third subchapter of Chapter 7: The Summit in Celeste. The subchapter brings back the mechanics of Chapter 2 and utilizes them in new ways. In the final room of the subchapter, Madeline and Badeline will talk to each other while being boosted up from the last purple orb, then combine back together to enter the next subchapter.

## **Gameplay**

This subchapter uses space blocks in all of the rooms, which are especially interesting to interact with since Madeline gets two mid-air dashes here. The fifth room of the subchapter will provide two transitions from the top which each lead to a different room, but after both of those rooms is the same convergence. A lot of screens in this subchapter can be made considerably easier by knowing the space block jump technique— learned in Chapter 2's B-Side. Additionally, the second screen of the subchapter can be easier navigated with the space block re-grab technique which is seen in Chapter 2's C-Side.

The emerald piece of the Crystal Heart of this chapter is located in a room behind a secretive smashable wall. This smashable wall is found by going up the right path of the fifth room of the subchapter and making it to the top of the room where two space blocks are seen right before the end. In the gap between these two, the smashable wall is on the right side. In the secret room, there are three key tokens to collect with some moving space blocks all around the large area on the right. This room can be played patiently to ensure the player's safety to collect the key tokens and unlock the key-activated platform and open up the way to the emerald piece.

### **Strawberries**

There are 6 Strawberries found in this subchapter.

Berry 1

Going left of the fourth room of the subchapter reveals a room containing this Strawberry, hovering all the way on the left side. This berry is deceptively tricky the collect, you'll first need to get to it by just dashing left through the space blocks and jumping into it. Fall down and dash right into the dash crystals and then dash up to boost up through the space block and keep moving right. Dash into the next dash crystal and then dash to the wall on the right (diagonally upward, if needed). Climb this wall and then dash diagonally up-left appropriately through the space block's gaps or alternatively dash up-right to make it through the small area on the right of the space block.

Berry 2

Go to the right transition of the fifth room of the subchapter to reach this berry's room. You'll need to do some diagonally upward dashes to get up the space block and find the Strawberry at the top hovering over spikes. Do a dash straight across the spikes to grab the berry, then use your second dash to go diagonally downward through the space block and do this again at the bottom to return back to safety.

Berry 3

Go up the left path of the fifth room of the subchapter and you can find a slight dent in the right wall past where the first space block on the right is. Dash from the left side of this space block into this area to be taken to the other path in a small area containing this Strawberry.

Berry 4

Go to the left transition of the seventh room of the subchapter to see this Strawberry. To get to it, dash to the left wall of the room and from there you simply do a diagonally up-right dash followed by a diagonally up-left dash to get up the space blocks. You can then fall down, avoiding some spikes, on the right to reach the berry.

Berry 5

Found in the eighth room of the subchapter, you can find this Strawberry above the second space block in a suspicious hidden area reached by dashing left over the spikes above.

Berry 6

Found in the ninth room of the subchapter, this berry is like the last subchapter's final berry in that it lies beyond the final purple orb of the room. Climb up the wall to the right of the purple orb to find an out of place block of ice. This smashable wall contains the last Strawberry.
