Assist Mode: Difference between revisions

'''Assist Mode''' is a special mode in ''Celeste'', which is toggleable anytime from the save slot menu,. whichIt enables access to several features that allow Madeline to progress in an easier way. These options allow players to alter the game mechanics to suit their gameplay style, as well as an accessibility option for people who suffer from disabilities preventing them from playing the game normally.

Using lower game speeds can also effect the game's physics, (Suchsuch as causing 5-jumps to clear 6 tiles). This is a small quirk caused by the slowdown, as the game was mainly programmed around 60 FPS. This can make precise sections, such as the last room of 7C, slightly more different than normallynormal.

Changes the amount of dashes the player has: Default, 2, or Infinite. Default will use the amount of dashes the player would normally have in the level, whether that is 1 or 2 dashes. 2 will set it to two dashes permanently. Infinite will allow unlimited dashes without needing to refill them or touch the ground;, however, [[Madeline]] is still constrained to one dash every ten frames however. In ''infiniteInfinite'' mode, [[Madeline]]'s hair is permanently pink (turning white during dashes).

Renders the player immune to all obstacles and hazards, granting the player the ability to freely move through otherwise dangerous obstacles. If Madeline falls into a bottomless pit, she will bounce off of the bottom edge of the screen, and holding the jump button causes her to bounce higher. If the player would be crushed by a moving block, instead of killing the player, insteadthe itblock becomes transparent until the player moves out of the way. Dashing into the wall through a [[Dream Block]] also causes the player to ricochet back. The only possible way to die with invincibility on is to get crushed by the falling [[Crystal Heart Gate|Heart Gate]] in [[Farewell]].

Allows the player to skip a chapter entirely when on the chapter selection screen. This is only available when using Assist Mode and not [[Variant Mode|variantVariant modeMode]], and can only be done in the chapter selection menu.
