I have not played Celeste in forever, but I also play on the switch! I have not tried speedrunning Celeste, but I have ~14 golden berries (1-2A, 4A, 1-2B, 1-8C, 1A winged), and all the normal berries. I might go back to Celeste after school (or soon/now) though.

Also, community, I’m probably not going to code for a while, because I’ve been experiencing a little burnout (and also HS). Hopefully I’ll be back in a month, but I’ll still be active on the forums!

You can right click a block then click help to find out what it does.

just for clarification, here’s what each reaction means for me:

❤ - Cool!

👍 - I agree

😆 - Funny

😮 - WHAT \*o\*

🎉 - Congrats

:duck: - Passive

:snake: - Opposite of 👍

Still coding! There’s been a pretty big unofficial game jam running around made by copysprite. Altho the growth rate of the chatting area is still concerning 😅

I always use these in switch commands. I never really use the continue though.

I love celeste! I think I was doing the C sides plus Farewell (the one that introduces all that new tech that reminds me so much of towerfall) when I finally stopped, as I didn’t want to get RSI when I am older. I played it on the ps5. Have you played celeste classic before? I loved that game, got my runs down to like 9m or something silly, a great amount of fun. I played in on a device called the Retroid, which is basically a small handheld gaming device that can be used to play old-new games.

Maybe it’s a good sign the amount of users when the chatting area start was low making it a desolate place but now this topic is bustling maybe the chatting area posts per month is a sign of the forums activity in total

**B** reak blocks break from the loop. When encountered in the program, it will ignore the rest of the code inside the loop. It will only ignore the code from the innermost loop it is in. There’s a 1 in 4 chance the outlined code will be ignored in Figure 1. The index loop will end, and the code will be continued **right _after_** the end of the loop.

**C** ontinue blocks are similar to break blocks except when they ignore the rest of its current loop, it will only do that; the loop keeps going. The same chances will apply to figure 2, so the outlined code will be ignored, but the index loop will still repeat since the code will be continued **right _before_** the loop ends. Figure 3 is what the code would be if it didn’t have the continue block.

(TL;DR) **_Continue_ blocks** ignore the rest of the code in the loop, but the loop continues and **_break_ blocks** ignore the rest of the code in the loop, but the loop doesn’t continue.

Noth need to be placed in a loop. This can be a “repeat 4 times” loop for exaple. A “break” block stops the loop and everything inside of it and instantly jumps to the block below the loop block.

“Continue” is bit harded to explain, but it skips all the blocks that are under it that are still inside the loop, but the loop continues.

I cant think of an example that isnt like 10 times more complicated than the block itself.

break exits the loop, while continue goes to the next iteration. [In this example](https://arcade.makecode.com/S50358-06609-15760-68583), when you choose “break”, it will not show anything after the 0, because the loop has ended. When you select “continue”, you can see that it does everything exept the 0’s. To understand this better, look at the code!
