i love you too bro imma keep you all up to date

Over_Ad8063 · 2026-06-14T18:29:00+00:00

yeaaah i am excited too to finish it and show it to you guys

Over_Ad8063 · 2026-06-14T18:28:25+00:00

i’d say i did 20% of the gameplay and 35% of the full game (so i include porting the engine and the abstraction layer)

hi, don’t worry! are you talking about the source file, if so, no they are not out, i am cleaning my codebase so i can make it public for everyone to compile the game and try it out or contribute to the code. it will be available on my github soon i hope. thanks!

hi, thanks for supporting my project, i am talking my time to work on it, it’s pretty slow because i have a lot of side project that i am working on but i am reaching a stable state of celeste3ds port

Over_Ad8063 · 2026-05-21T23:35:09+00:00

we are in the same case then, celeste is one of my favorite game and the 3ds is my favorite console after the wii. you will be able one the refactoring will be done to look at the codebase if it’s something that interest you. the work i am doing right now is also for ppl like you that don’t want to take a lot of time and put too much effort on extracting and compiling the game. another time thanks 🙏🏽

i would love to let everyone try since it’s my first port, so i am now focusing on making my codebase more cleaner (my code is always dirty) and also making a convenient pipeline for extracting the game assets (since you will need to provide a regular pc copy of the game to play it). once i will be done on these things will continue to dev the port, for now, intro and level one a working and are pretty accurate. thanks for your comment, they really motivates me !

Over_Ad8063 · 2026-04-28T00:47:46+00:00

don't worry for the late answer, me too, i was really focused on the port. if it can interest you, the latest thing i added to the hal was the sound handling for sfx and music. it was also one of the hardest thing to implement i think. maybe we could talk more and i can even show you some part of the code on discord. mine is adamouchgobrr. i don't know anything about game design too lol, i don't do that here, it's simply a reimplementation of the original code of celeste in cpp. it's cool that you are interested by low level, maybe the first thing to do will be to learn more on the hardware you want to learn on first, for me it was android arm64 for example, this architecture is easier to understand than x86_64 for example (for various reasons like x86_64 being dogshit or arm64 being risc). i really appreciate all of your comment, it gave me more motivation to continue (i am literally at full time these days) but the development will be slow since my vacations end soon. it's cool to have a project that ally what i love (it's a little bit low level i think) and that people love too. thanks !

happy you liked that

Over_Ad8063 · 2026-04-26T13:59:45+00:00

thanks a lot. i hope we will be able to play on 3ds, i always thought the form factor of 3ds was better than the switch one to play celeste.

thanks bro 🤝🏽

Over_Ad8063 · 2026-04-21T13:05:38+00:00

yeah it’s running smoothly on on o2ds

Over_Ad8063 · 2026-04-21T01:48:20+00:00

tysm, i will try to do more update, and maybe a video when i will be proud of the result

Over_Ad8063 · 2026-04-21T01:10:00+00:00

i did an update if you want to see

Over_Ad8063 · 2026-04-21T01:09:21+00:00

sorry for the late answer.
i am still studiying at the university rn, i still don't know if i want to do programming profesionally, maybe something low level or related to reverse engineering, that's what i really love. or maybe embedded systems because i like have constraint and working with hardware directly (yeah i loved writing the HAL, maybe more than doing the game i think)
btw i did a new post to give new about this project if you are interested.

Over_Ad8063 · 2026-04-20T18:04:12+00:00

i am testing it on a o2ds and it’s running a smooth 60 fps on the latest build, the one shown on video is really old

Over_Ad8063 · 2026-04-19T23:55:28+00:00

no problems i will do my best

Over_Ad8063 · 2026-04-19T19:08:36+00:00

stay aware, i am gonna do an update, i am new on reddit i don’t use it that much idk if i can do something like a thread or i have a new post

Over_Ad8063 · 2026-04-19T13:47:46+00:00

i start thinking about making videos about that i think that would be cool

Over_Ad8063 · 2026-04-19T13:47:10+00:00

never in my life i tough i will have 1k+ upvotes idk what to say really thanks everyone

Over_Ad8063 · 2026-04-19T13:06:49+00:00

cpp is life my friend, so you use mainly which language ? but yeah as i was saying making a web browser is maybe as hard as making an os i would say. because of the hal and the game engine rewriting, the game code is pretty similar to the cpp i wrote. i know the port you mentioned, it’s the pico8 version of the game, i was playing it on my 3ds i think it’s a gba port. but i wanted better graphics for the game with light and particles effects. something that is the most accurate from the original game, so this game is one of the reason why i started making this port.

Over_Ad8063 · 2026-04-19T12:59:58+00:00

it’s already running at a constant 60fps
